Flat-floored bin emptying equipment - with air delivered inside trapezium-section sloping cloth deflectors to break up lumps left at end

摘要

The pneumatic equipment completely empties a flat-floored bin containing granular material. It incorporates radial deflectors (7) having, in plan view, the shape of an isosceles triangle. The deflectors are of trapezium section with a ridge sloping towards the central discharge opening (3), and are made of any strong flexible material distorting under the effect of pulsating air. This increases their vol and thus destroys lumps of material remaining behind after discharge by gravity, so that the bin is emptied completely.
