ABSTRACT:
A flow enhancement device for suspension within the storage bins having gravity fed lower output openings is disclosed and includes a diverging upper portion for diverting downwardly moving material radially outwardly as that material moves downwardly along the upper portion along with a lower portion having side walls more vertically inclined than the diverging upper portion to create a low pressure shearing region through which the material may fall toward the outlet. The lower portion may be provided with a series of projections for both inducing a circumferential component to the material flow and moving the enhancement device somewhat so as to dislodge entrapped materials in the bin. And to cause the opening at the bin exit to remain at a low pressure and to be always opened to material flow.
