ABSTRACT:
Maximum separation of the seed cotton locks delivered to a cage roller gin is achieved by a ballistic trajectory that carries the locks over the top of the cage roller to a landing area. In the preferred embodiment, the flight of the locks over the cage roller is induced by a pair of oppositely driven rollers which expel the cotton from between their adjacent surfaces along a common tangential plane offset at an angle above the top of the cage roller. Ambient air is admitted to the relatively large volume plenum from beneath the rollers and a primary flow of air about the cage roller is promoted as the seed cotton overlies the rotating cage such that the air and injected seed cotton locks flow in co-current direction above the cage roller.
