Problems solved by technology

Dust and noise further complicate loading tasks and increase risk
In addition, inclement weather, such as snow or rain, combined with extended loading times if only one operator is used, can reduce the quality of the goods to be loaded

Embodiment Construction

[0022] For the purposes of developing and understanding the invention, detailed language will now be used to describe the same by reference to one or more illustrative embodiments shown in the drawings.

[0023] refer to image 3 , a typical prior art commodity storage and loading device 20, including a storage bin 22, a loading system 24, a transmission device 26 for controlling the flow of commodities 28, and a commodity discharge port 30. The merchandise discharge port 28 is generally located above the open area where the transport cart 32 with the transport case 34 is located, allowing the transport case to be filled with merchandise 28 . The loading system 24 generally includes an existing control box 40 with components such as the power supply system and motor and / or door controllers such as starters, relay switches or PLCs. The operator 36 typically must leave the vehicle cab 38 and open the loading system 24 at the control box 40 to control the drives for opening / clos...

Abstract

A system (100) for in-vehicle (38) monitoring and control of commodity loading, such a grain or loose or fluid materials, from a storage bin (22) to a transport bin (34) using a loading system (24), includes a loading system control device (102) and a user interface device (110) capable of mutual wireless communication. The system (100) improves safety by eliminating the need for operators (36) to crawl up the side of vehicle in order to check levels of commodity (28) in the transport bin (34), while also trying to move the transport bin as required. The loading system control device (102) includes a logic switching unit (130) for selectively operating the loading system (24) that transfers the commodity (28) from the storage bin (22); one or more cameras (104, 106) providing visual feeds (112, 114) of the loading of commodity into the transport bin; and a security or safety feature (134). The user interface device (110) includes a display (120) for displaying the visual feeds (112, 114) and control switches (122) for operating the loading system (24).

Description

Background technique [0001] The present disclosure relates to systems for loading bulk or flowing materials into containers, and more particularly, the present disclosure relates to systems for loading bulk materials such as grain onto transport boxes such as grain trucks. [0002] Prior systems for loading bulk or flowing granular materials (collectively "commodities") from storage bins into shipping boxes typically consisted of augers, conveyor belts and / or gates (flow devices), at least some of which were driven by motors or other Operated by an actuator that controls the flow of merchandise into the shipping case. The actuator in which the flow of merchandise into the shipping case is started and stopped is typically operated by a simple on-off switch or other control. However, vehicles with transport boxes, such as tractor-trailer combinations, must frequently and periodically reposition during loading to ensure that each section of the transport box is at maximum capaci...
