Push off buckrake

Does anyone know if one sort of a buckrake has more push travel than the others or better still could the geometry be altered to do so.
I am looking to convert one to be like a bucket rather than a fork and could do with 5-6’ of push ideally. Most seem to be around 3’
I have thought maybe something like a pusher trailer design with a staged ram but would probably end up too long overall.
It will be used to fill our biomass boiler with woodchip.
Any ideas gratefully received.
Thanks

Some one posted a thread about ejector buckets and on that there was a video of an old pallet rotator that had had a halfpipe bucket made for it. They rotated it to empty chip into a batch boiler.
