  • Container including a magnetically operated scraper
    Patent number: 9067728
    Abstract: There is provided a container for a bulk material. The container includes an elongated shell. A scraper assembly is configured to move within the shell. The scraper assembly further is configured to contact at least one interior wall of the shell. A driver assembly is located outside the shell and is configured to move along an outer surface of the shell. A driven assembly is located inside the shell and is coupled to the scraper assembly. Each of the driver assembly and driven assembly includes one of a magnet and a magnetically attractable material. Movement of the driver assembly, by a motion appliance, outside the shell causes a corresponding movement of the driven assembly and coupled scraper assembly inside the shell to move the bulk material inside the shell.
