ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for drying grain in a storage bin includes an elevated floor structure horizontally disposed across a storage bin. The floor includes a plurality of parallel ridges and valleys and is perforated to allow the passage of hot drying air upwardly through the floor and into any grain which is retained above the perforated floor. Each valley in the floor has holes therethrough for the passage of grain, and a plurality of cup-like grain containers are slidably positioned immediately below the valleys and are moveable horizontally from positions in communication with the valleys for receivcing grain therein to positions closed with respect to the elevated floor, but open with respect to a dry grain storage area below the elevated floor. Drive machinery is capable of continuously moving the grain containers over a range of speeds.
