ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes structure for redirecting the stream flow of a high velocity flow of particulate material. A chamber is mounted between an entrance spout and a discharge spout through which a stream of particulate matter flows. The chamber includes a baffle apparatus which is positioned in the stream flow within the chamber. The baffle apparatus includes two members formed in a "V" shaped pattern with the apex of the "V" positioned closer to the discharge spout than the free ends of the "V". The apex of the "V" is broken away to permit particulate matter to slide from the baffle to the discharge spout when flow into the chamber stops. The baffle is positioned so that the incoming matter strikes the baffle. Particulate matter is collected by the baffle so that further incoming matter strikes the particulate matter instead of the baffle.
