ABSTRACT:
A material distribution device is disclosed for spreading material such as grain during bin loading. A hopper, having a plurality of funnels therein acts in conjunction with the grain to automatically establish the path of the grain through the hopper according to flow rate of the grain passing through the hopper. Arms, rotated by a variable speed drive, receive the grain from the hopper and direct the grain into the bin with the speed of rotation, length and angle with respect to horizontal of the arms being selected and/or controlled to achieve uniform distribution of the grain throughout the bin without causing appreciable grain damage due to impact.
