ABSTRACT:
A valved seed outlet is disclosed for use in a seed apparatus for dispensing fluffy or hairy coated seed that is prone to bridging. The valve seed outlet is mounted in an opening of a storage container and comprises mounting structure for mounting the outlet beneath the storage container. A valve seat defines an orifice beneath the storage container through which seed may flow. The valve seat has a valve member mounted therein. The valve member is restrained from rotary motion by at least one support post. The valve seed outlet further has a seed sweep member mounted to disturb the seed at the orifice. The seed sweep member is continuously or intermittently activated. Even further, the valve seed outlet comprises a pair of perpendicular passages using the venturi effect to draw seed through valve aspiration.
