ABSTRACT:
The disclosure embraces a method of and apparatus for receiving bulk particulate materials from a material supply carrier into a hopper construction in which the hopper construction includes a multicellular or multitubular arrangement providing for free flowing of the material through the cells or tubes into a hopper chamber, the tubular or cellular construction being provided with a central conically-shaped void or space defined by certain of the tubes or cells being of varying lengths whereby the angle of the conically-shaped void simulates a natural angle of repose of the particulate material so that the particulate material in the hopper chamber and in the void or space seals the tubes or cells preventing cross winds or moving air from affecting or entraining the material thereby minimizing or substantially eliminating loss of the material and contamination of the environment by the material.
