Hopper Box System – Concept1st set is being built in January of 2015

System will have 100-110 metric tons of capacity

The system is built to hold 200,000 pounds of materials

The bins can stay on the train or be removed – full or empty

1 bin will sit on a riser and the riser will be bolted or welded to the rail car

Each rail car will have 4 risers for weight distribution

The riser can also be utilized onsite for discharge of the bins

Great for sand, grain, plastic, wheat or any flowable material

Jumbo Bin Roof

the bin will be fitted with a roof to keep the material dry

The opening can be any size, but is currently 24” W x 60” L

The hatch will look like the one shown here

The roof is safe for workers to walk on &

will have anti-skid material applied

Plant workers will be able to walk from

bin to bin for easy filling

Other options are available


Jumbo Bin Discharge

Gravity fed bottom discharge

The funnel is 35 degrees on the long side & 30 on the short

There will be 2 gates to allow for dual side discharge

Each gate will have a lead screw

Discharge can be controlled between the bin and the riser

Gate can be easily opened and closed with air or electric tool

Jumbo Bin Opening Options

There are 3 ways to easily open the bins

Jumbo Bins on Flat Rail Cars

Rail Cars can hold up to 112.5 short tons or 225,000 pounds

The capacity ranges from 70 to 112.5 short tons

Depending on the flat car –we use 3 to 5 bins


180,000 Pounds / 90 tons

180,000 pounds / 90 tons

225,000 pounds / 112.5 tons

Jumbo Bin Dual Discharge

Our dual gate system is unique and allows for discharge from both sides of the bin & rail car

This also allows for discharge control from both sides at the same time


2ndComes the Jumbo Riser

Each riser will have a two sided discharge chute under each bin

Discharge will be able to take place on either side of the bins

The chutes can be discharged simultaneously or one side at a time

Bins can be left on riser permanently or removed at anytime

Same discharge system with flatbed truck


Riser Configuration

Each riser will be approximately 18 INCHES OFF THE DECK OF RAIL CAR

Each Riser will hold two bins and the bins will be bolted to the riser

Each riser may need an additional attachable chute to get material over the side of the rail car – depending on width of car

If the risers are on the car next to each other they can be attached to each other.

The discharge angle is 30 degrees on the riser

Angels are dependent on materials in bins and rail car width

Discharge from Riser

The riser will have A SEPARATE DISCHARGE CHUTE FOR EACH BIN

Each CHUTE WILL HAVE VISUAL INDICATORS OF THE DISCHARGE RATE

This photo is a representation of the chute that will be on the riser

The chute will have a simple pin system to keep it locked until it is going to be opened

Jumbo Riser & Flat Car – 4W

This example depicts all 4 bins being centered on the car

and holding 200,000 pounds. Different rail cars will

require balancing of the weight and require them to be split


Jumbo Riser & Flat Car – 2x2

This example depicts the bins being separated and moved closer

to the trucks for even weight distribution. The car will still

hold 200,000 pounds and have 100 tons capacity. hold 200,000 pounds and have 100 tons capacity. hold 200,000 pounds and have 100 tons capacity. hold 200,000 pounds and have 100 tons capacity.


Jumbo Bin Loading

Bins are top loaded

through the large

top hatch

They Can be loaded

at the mill/plant or

can be transloaded

into the bin

They can be live

loaded on a truck or

train


Jumbo Bin Repair and replacement

Can be repaired in

the field

Parts readily

available

No special tools

needed


Jumbo Bin Benefits

Efficient

Speed – can load & unload multiple bins simultaneously

Space Optimization – able to maximize storage space

Speed to Discharge – able to discharge 50,000 pounds in 2 minutes if required. Slower speeds are achieved by reducing the gate opening.

Effective

Flexible – able to use bins for a variety of commodities

Ease of transit – can be transported in many ways

Customizable – bins can be modified to accommodate each scenario

Reduced waste factor – commodity handled less using bins

Cost – much less expensive than building hopper cars

Fast start-up of shipping operations

Sustainable

Reusable & repairable – can be used thousands of times over its life span

Capacity

Hopper Car vs Jumbo Bins


Load Capacity - Rail Hopper - tons Short Ton

Total Pounds per Car Bin Capacity Equivalent Bins Req.

110 2000 220,000 50,000 4.40

90 2000 180,000 50,000 3.60

70 2000 140,000 50,000 2.80

These examples are three common capacity hopper cars. The 110 is the maximum available.There are many flat cars that can handle the total weight that a hopper can. Regular flat cars, bulkhead flat cars and specialty cars for lumber and other materials. The Jumbo bins can be securely shipped on all of these flat cars.
