The present invention relates to a device for displac- ing sediment, for example sand, from the bottom of a liquid- filled container (20) to a receptacle device (29). A first conveyor (22) disposed in the edge region (21) of the con- tainer (20) in connection with the bottom of the container, receives sediment which is accumulated on the bottom. The first conveyor (22) consists of a rotating screw thread (24) located in a path (23) and has a discharge portion (27). The device further includes a second conveyor (40) consisting of a rotary screw thread (44) in a casing (41). The sec- ond conveyor (40) has an infeed opening (43) located in connection with the lower portion of the container, prefer- ably below its bottom, and a discharge portion (42) located above the maximum filling level of the container (20). A mechanical device (50) displaces the sediment from the dis- charge portion (27) of the first conveyor (22) to the infeed opening (43) of the second conveyor (40). The discharge portion (42) of the second conveyor (40) discharges sedi- ment to the receptacle device (29) either direct or via the transport device (60).
