Abstract
There is disclosed a backstacker-reclaimer apparatus which includes a frame having a combined stacking and reclaiming boom. A plurality of spaced stacking and reclaiming flights are longitudinally driven about the boom by an endless chain drive. A conveyor is provided which feeds material to be stacked to the lower reach of the boom so that flights traveling along the lower reach may push the material up onto the stack. The material is confined in the lower reach by side skirts which may be raised for a reclaiming operation.
