Benefits of technology

[0005]The present invention proposes a spreader that addresses at least one of the fore-mentioned needs and allows an efficient control of the distance and the direction of the spreading of the material.

Problems solved by technology

However, the scattering mechanisms of such spreaders project the products in a manner that is often random and over short distances.
As such, the spreaders of the prior art cannot spread product over long distances in precise directions nor can they equally be adjusted and controlled with ease.

Embodiment Construction

[0034]The spreader according to a preferred mode of realisation of the present invention is illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 4B.

[0035]With respect to FIG. 1, the spreader 100 comprises a case 102 for holding the 20 product to be spread. The case 102 comprises an aperture apt to allow the ejection of the product to be spread from the case 102. The spreader 100 comprises as well a conveying device 106, as better seen in FIG. 2, disposed in the case 102 and able to displace at least a portion of the product to be spread in a direction towards the aperture 104. The spreader 100 also comprises an aperture obstruction device for obstructing at least partially an aperture zone defined by the aperture. As well, an aperture adjustment device controls the displacement of the aperture obstruction device and regulates the aperture surface of the aperture zone.

[0036]The spreader 100 further comprises a speed controller 106 able to control the speed of the conveying device 106. The spreader 100 comprise...

Abstract

A spreader for spreading materials comprising a case for holding a product to be spread. The case comprising an aperture for ejecting the product to be spread from the case. The spreader further comprising a conveying device for displacing a portion of the product to be spread in a direction towards the aperture. The spreader equally comprising aperture adjustment device for controlling the displacement of an aperture obstruction device relative to an aperture surface of said aperture. The spreader further comprises a speed controller for setting the speed of the conveying device. The spreader comprises as well a blower for projecting the product to be spread, the blower having an inlet and an outlet. The direction of the outlet is adjustable along different angles. The spreader also comprises a angle adjustment system for the outlet of the blower. The inlet of the blower is placed at an angle relative to the aperture of the case.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to spreaders. More particularly, the present invention relates to a spreader with a blower having a directionally adjustable outlet.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The spreading of materials such as lime or ash, for foresting or agricultural applications is usually made through the use of spreaders.[0003]In order to facilitate their tuning and to allow a more precise control of the quantity of products to be spread, certain spreaders have been equipped with electronic control means like what has been described in European patent application 1797751. These types of control means can control a hydraulic moving carpet device placed at the end of the spreader, in a manner to control the volume and the force of the products to be spread onto a terrain. However, the scattering mechanisms of such spreaders project the products in a manner that is often random and over short distances.[0004]As such, the spreaders of the prior art ca...
