  • Bulk bag discharger for dry flowable materials
    Patent number: 6450754
    Abstract: A discharge chute for a bulk bag discharger is fabricated of molded plastic. The chute has an upper portion for securement to a bulk bag discharger frame, such that the mid and lower portions of the chute are freely suspended from the frame. The mid portion of the chute includes one flat sidewall, and three elliptical sidewalls. A door is provided in the flat sidewall of the chute for affording operator access to the interior of the chute. A vibrator is mounted on a vibrator mounting plate on one of the elliptical sidewalls of the chute. The lower end of the chute forms a circular outlet opening, and preferably is of stepped configuration so that an operator may selectively remove steps from the outlet end of the chute to provide an outlet opening of desired diameter.
