radar Type IXB (9B) External Torpedo Storages & Loading

Hello, i was curious about external storages on Type 9B (Specifically!) and in general. How do marines load torpedoes in sea from external compartments to internal? I've tried to find some schemes and pictures but failed. I will be happy to see all those cranes and equipment wich was hidden when not needed. I would like to see schemes of type 9b where it can be seen, or photoes\videos of this procedure.

All i found was the mention that empty external storages were sealable and had a tendency to break inside torpedo room under heavy depth charge bombardment wich often leaded to submarine death because of quick water arrival to torpedo room compartment. So, no pictures at all.

P.S. excuzes for not perfect english, it's not my native.
