ABSTRACT:
Masses of grain are smoothly unloaded from a flat-floored storage building to a below-floor conveyor at an even rate, notwithstanding usual surges in discharge from the upper portions of such grain masses, by an elongated unitary movable above-floor conveyor assembly extending from near a side wall of the storage building to a vertical passage in the floor of that building to the below-floor conveyor. Because the above-floor conveyor assembly evens out irregularities in the flow rate from the mass to the below-floor conveyor, the below-floor conveyor operates without surges thereinto or therefrom. The even rate of flow of the feed to the under-floor conveyor permits rapid spillfree moving of masses of grain to and from different portions of the storage building and to the exterior thereof.
