ABSTRACT:
A breather bag for use in a sealed silo maintains pressure equilibrium between the inside and the outside of the silo by its volumetric change while preventing the ingestion of oxygen laden air. The breather bag is of generally arcuate or semi-circular shape and has a generally circular cross section. The breather bag includes at least one flexible conduit which extends between the breather bag and the silo roof and provides communication between the inside of the breather bag and the atmosphere. The breather bag is comprised of at least three plastic panels which are sealed together along overlapping edges. Two of the panels are a generally semi-circular shape and the third is a generally hour-glass shape. A continuous hanger strap is sealed along the upper arcuate center line of the breather bag to facilitate hanging the bag within a silo. An alternate embodiment utilizes individual hanger pads disposed along the upper arcuate surface of the breather bag which performs the function of the hanger strap which they replace.
