Filed:

Apr 16, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/061309

Inventors:

Dean I. Anderson - Paynesville MN
Douglas L. Pettit - Benson MN

Assignee:

Ag-Chem Equipment - Minnetonka MN

International Classification:

A01C 1700

US Classification:

239681

Abstract:

The spinner spreader machine includes a funnel that is automatically or selectively repositionable and associated with the spinner. The funnel is used to vary the product spreading pattern or maintain a consistent product spreading pattern in combination with a varying product delivery rate as the machine traverses a geographic land area. The machine is used to disperse stored products over a geographic land area and advantageously reduces or eliminates product waste as well as surface and ground contamination that results from inefficient spreading of products.

Abstract:

A spinner spreader machine has a product conveyor assembly that efficiently and accurately spreads either lime or fertilizer products, or combinations thereof. The versatility of the machine is enhanced with a plurality of conveyor belt assemblies configured to overcome the self-cohesive characteristics of certain products such as lime. The versatility of the machine is further enhanced when the conveyor apparatus provides a substantially constant volumetric distribution of product to the spinner mechanism.
