MACHINE COMPONENTS
The air pump or blower is the key component in the
Agri-Vac
®
and is driven by the:
1)
gasoline engine or
2)
electric motor
through a belt and chain drive system. The blower
moves air through the machine. On the intake side,
the blower creates a vacuum in the receiver tank and
intake lines for picking up grain. Grain is separated
from the stream of air in the receiver tank.
FIG. 1 MACHINE COMPONENTS
On the discharge side of the blower, the pressurized
air flows through the airlock where it picks up a
metered quantity of grain and moves it out the lines
to the discharge cyclone.
The airlock is rotated by the same power source as
the blower.
