Abstract: A combined weight and sampling device as described for use in grain elevators and similar storage facilities. The device comprises a weight element which is attached to the end of a measuring tape for being lowered to the top surface of the stored product for volume measurement purposes. Additionally, the device includes a hollow upper portion which will be filled with the measured material for sampling purposes. All of the structural elements of the device are formed of non-sparkable material, i.e. non-ferrous materials to eliminate the possibility of a spark induced explosion of grain dust, etc.
