ABSTRACT:
A sleeve having front and rear halves. The front sleeve half has an aperture formed therethrough and a spout affixed thereto over the aperture. An auger brace is attached between the wall of a grain bin and a vertical truck conveyor. An aperture is formed through the side of the vertical conveyor adjacent to and above the point of attachment of the auger brace to the vertical conveyor. The sleeve halves are detachably joined together around the vertical conveyor, the joined sleeve halves forming the sleeve which is rotatable about the vertical conveyor and slidable along the length of the conveyor. The sleeve is rotatable upon the auger brace. The sleeve is rotated such that the aperture in the conveyor and the aperture in the front sleeve half are rotated into and out of alignment thereby allowing grain to empty from the grain bin through the spout of the sleeve at a low level or through the down spout at the upper end of the conveyor.
