ABSTRACT:
A chute assembly in a bucket or scoop designed to be mounted on a front end loader or the like having a boom or lift arms for raising, lowering and controlling fore-aft pitch of the bucket. The bucket or scoop has an interior chamber and the chute assembly has a pair of converging sidewalls mounted on a plate forming a funnel, preferably with an adjustable throat for spreading flowable materials. The sidewalls of the chute are adapted to make a sealing fit with the sidewalls of the bucket, as does the plate along its bottom wall, joining the funnel and the interior chamber and forming a hopper. The chute assembly has means for attachably and detachably securing the plate to the bottom wall of the bucket. In one embodiment, a power ram drive mechanism swings the chute assembly in and out of the bucket on lift arms attached to the bucket.
