English term or phrase: Trailing suction hopper dredger ; hopper

It's a vessel. I found :
Drague suceuse porteuse à clapets but for "trailing", nothing.
Hopper : "time for loading the hopper with sand" ; it's a part if this dredger but can't find the exact term.
Thank you!

French translation:drague suceuse porteuse à élinde trainante; hopper = puits à déblais

Explanation:
The "élinde" is the suction pipe. In this dredger type, the seabed is broken by a (large) cutter screw and the debris sucked up and dumped in the hopper.
The hopper can be on-board on alongside.
