ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for stirring a mass of grain stored in a bin, the bin having a cylindrical wall, a roof and a track extending in a circle around the inside of the wall in a horizontal plane above the level of the grain in the bin. The apparatus comprises a beam swingable in a generally horizontal plane above the grain about the central vertical axis of the bin. The inner end of the beam is suspended from the roof of the bin and the outer end has a carriage removably mounted thereon having wheels adapted to be driven along the track for effecting a sweep of the beam around the bin. A plurality of augers spaced at intervals along the length of the beam and extending downwardly therefrom are rotatable on their axes for moving the grain upward so that during a sweep of the beam around the bin the grain is stirred, aerated and blended for controlling moisture variation in the grain from bottom to top.
