ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic bottom discharge outlet for hoppers is provided having a tubular conduit extending from at least one side of the outlet to which vacuum suction or air under pressure may be applied for unloading lading from the discharge outlet. The tubular conduit has a first annular portion having an outer surface for receiving a female hose coupling of one diameter and a second annular portion projecting axially from the first annular portion and having an outer surface of a smaller diameter than the first annular portion for receiving a female hose coupling of a smaller diameter. The first and second annular portions are eccentric with the inner surface of the second annular portion being substantially tangent to the inner surface to the first annular portion to provide a smooth flow passage for lading flow during clean-out of the discharge outlet.
