ABSTRACT:
Jet post assemblies providing both structural support and an air curtain over the floor panel structure of the cotton discharge compartment to increase the cotton-handling capacity of the compartment and prevent clogging in damp, high yield cotton. Air is bled from a nozzle located on the cotton-conveying duct and channelled through upright structural posts connected to the floor panel structure. Lower outlets in the posts direct air over the floor panel structure. The air preserves the kinetic energy of the doffed cotton and positively directs cotton to the discharge opening.
