ABSTRACT:
A funnel-shaped device is provided with one or two segments serving as brackets to enlarge the bottom opening of the funnel which, when closed, is smaller than the smallest piece of grain to be deposited; a centrally disposed air tube blows air axially toward the bottom opening to cause a single piece of grain to be aerodynamically held on the opening while the remainder of the grains hover at a higher level. A slide element such as a fork or the like can be removably disposed at an intermediate level, possibly to serve for opening a single-bracket element. This permits a lower hovering level and a correspondingly increasing cycle time and depositing rate.
