20130068669 | VERTICAL DROP PRODUCT CLEANER WITH PERFORATED INTAKE MANIFOLD - A vertical grain cleaner having an intake manifold modified to reduce the formation of vortexes and pressure imbalances based on the flow of aspiration air through the cleaner. An intake manifold with a louver defining one or more apertures that allows air to pass through the louver. Methods of operating vertical grain cleaners. | 03-21-2013 |
20130037456 | SEAL SYSTEMS FOR GRAIN SEPARATORS - The invention includes a grain separator with a seal system. The seal system includes an elastomeric portion and an inelastomeric portion. The seal system interfaces with an inlet spout at at least two locations. The seal system is rotatable about an inlet spout. A sealing pressure is increased as grain interacts with the seal system. | 02-14-2013 |
20090318204 | SEAL ASSEMBLIES FOR GRAIN SEPARATORS - The invention provides for a seal assembly for a grain separator. The grain separator may include a housing, a rotatable grain separation cylinder within the housing, the cylinder having an end surface, a grain inlet having an inlet spout extending through the end surface for conveying grain into the cylinder in a feed zone, an auxiliary end piece or seal cone functionally connected to the end surface of the cylinder. The auxiliary end piece may have an annular external surface spaced laterally from the feed zone, and a seal interfacing with the annular external surface, thereby defining a seal zone spaced laterally from the feed zone. Such grain separators have increased capacity compared to separators with traditional seal assemblies. | 12-24-2009 |
20080277515 | HAMMERMILL WITH ROTATABLE HOUSING - The invention includes a hammermill for comminuting material. The hammer includes a housing and a cutting plate disposed within the housing. A rotor assembly is rotatably mounted within the housing about an axis of rotation and a plurality of hammers are functionally coupled to the rotor assembly. The housing is rotatable about the axis of rotation. | 11-13-2008 |
