ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an improved bulk tobacco container of the type used to contain and support flue cured tobacco material for curing and drying, with the bulk tobacco container being of the box type and provided with an air diffuser or air channeling device disposed generally centrally within the container for channeling air directly from the bottom of the container to the tobacco material generally centrally located within the container. In particular, as oriented in an upright curing and drying position, the air channeling device or air diffuser extends upright from the lower portion of the bulk tobacco container and includes a side wall structure that defines an interior air passing area such that air may enter a lower open end portion of the air diffuser and move upwardly therethrough. Disposed about an upper side portion of the side wall structure of the air diffuser is air outlet openings that allow air to exit the air diffuser and be dispersed about and through the adjacent tobacco leaf material generally centrally located within the container for more efficient and effective curing and drying of the tobacco leaf material.
