  • Patent number: 11261041
    Abstract: A material-conveying system comprises a main conveyor for conveying material, a swing conveyor for conveying the material to the main conveyor and a processor for controlling a speed of the swing conveyor based on a feedback signal. The feedback signal may be indicative of a speed of the swing conveyor and/or a speed of a main conveyor. The feedback signal may be indicative of material level, belt slippage, flow rate, belt angle and/or material rollback.

  • Patent number: 11117145
    Abstract: An atomizer mixing chamber for a seed treater has a body having first and second inlets for receiving first and second treatment fluids. The atomizer mixing chamber has a first stage cup for receiving and combining the first and second treatment fluids to provide a combined fluid, the first stage cup comprising a first set of holes through which the combined fluid flows. The atomizer also has a second stage cup below the first stage cup for receiving the combined fluid from the first stage cup, wherein the second stage cup further mixes the combined fluid to provide a mixed fluid and wherein the second stage cup comprises a second set of holes through which the mixed fluid flows. The atomizer mixing chamber may include a third stage cup below the second stage cup for receiving the mixed fluid and having a third set of holes through which the mixed fluid exits from the atomizer.

  • Patent number: 10477769
    Abstract: A drive system for a paddle belt conveyor comprises a drive shaft and a drive roller rotationally driven by the drive shaft about a first axis. The drive roller exerts traction on a belt of the belt conveyor. The belt comprises a plurality of paddles. The drive system includes a pinch roller mounted rotationally about a second axis parallel to the first axis. The pinch roller pinches the belt between the pinch roller and the drive roller to augment the traction of the drive roller on the belt. Either the drive roller or the pinch roller is a bobbin roller to accommodate the paddles on the belt. The drive system may further include a take-up roller rotatable about a third axis parallel to the first axis, and first and second idler rollers rotatable about fourth and fifth axes parallel to the first axis.
