Patent number: 4988240Abstract: This invention relates to a material transfer assembly usable with a pneumatic grain handling system to transfer granular material from a storage bin to a transport truck. The material transfer assembly is connected to a discharge side of the pneumatic grain handling system and includes a discharge joint assembly mounted between an inlet tube assembly and a discharge tube assembly. The discharge joint assembly is provided with a ball sleeve assembly mounted about a ball joint to provide for pivotal movement about a horizontal axis through a tube actuator assembly. The inlet tube assembly is provided with telescopingly mounted first and second tube members operable wherein the second tube member is selectively secured in a desired rotational position about a vertical axis by a lock arm assembly.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 1988Date of Patent: January 29, 1991Inventor: Andy L. Thompson

Patent number: 4493593Abstract: A device for continuous transporting granulated material includes a storage ontainer and a tubular conveyor housing positioned below and storage container and receiving the granulated material therefrom. The conveyor housing is supplied with pressurized air. A separating member is movable longitudinally of the conveyor housing between a space containing pressurized air and a space containing the granulated material. The separating member is peripherally spaced from the inner wall of the housing to form a through passage therebetween, which continually connects the pressurized air space with the space containing the granulated material. The separating member is provided with an opening connected to a discharge pipe. The separating member forms in the conveyor housing a movable pressure cushion of varying volume which in turn forms in the housing a pressure gas-material mixture which is discharged from the housing through the opening in the separating member and the discharge pipe.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1982Date of Patent: January 15, 1985Assignee: Ferroplast Gesellschaft fur Metall- und Kunststoffepzeucnisse mbHInventor: Heinrich Schlimbach
