Mossfield loader
A scraper-box type of coal loader developed at the Mossfield colliery (Great Britain) in 1953. It consists of a hinged front, scooplike plate which elevates and deflects the broken coal onto an armored conveyor. On inclined faces, the loader is hauled by a double-drum Pikrose haulage.
