ALARM SYSTEM FOR INFORMING AMOUNT OF GRAIN FILLED IN CONTAINER OR THE LIKE

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide a grain storing container into which grain can be filled most efficiently, by providing a detector downwardly of a grain scattering blade where it is most difficult to charge grain. CONSTITUTION:As grain is supplied continuously into hopper 10, it is carried by lift 11 and auger 4 and dropped onto the upper surface of grain scattering blade 3. Grain thus dropped onto the upper surface of scattering blade 3 is charged into container 1 while being scattered in every direction by the rotation of blade 3. Here, level of grain thus charged into container 1 is higher at the peripheral portion of container 1. That is, the level of grain in container 1 reaches to the upper end of side wall at the peripheral portion of container 1, and then grain flows down toward the central portion of container 1. When the level of grain at the central portion becomes higher and comes into contact with detector 6, it is actuated to close micro switch, whereupon alarm is given by buzzer.
