The invention is directed broadly to a filter for a bin storing agricultural material, the filter comprising; a rigid perimeter frame supporting a grate within the frame; and a plurality of legs spaced about the perimeter frame, wherein the filter, in use, is located within the bin and positioned to substantially cover an outlet of the bin, the plurality of legs in direct contact with the bin so as to transmit vibrations from the bin to the filter, the agricultural material within the bin traversing the grate as it exits the bin.

A method for adjusting the proportions of components in a total is described. The method comprises providing a computer processor configured to present, using a user interface, a plurality of components for selection. Further, the method comprises providing the computer processor to receive a selection of the presented plurality of components. Furthermore, the method comprises providing the computer processor to present, using the user interface, a linear arrangement of the selected plurality of components, each pair of adjacent components being separated by a selectable boundary. Additionally, the method comprises providing the computer processor configured to receive a selection of a selectable boundary. Moreover, the method comprises providing the computer processor to adjust, in response to the selection of the selectable border, the relative proportion of the components.

An internal air adjustment device that includes a gas composition adjustment unit including a gas separation film and that adjusts a composition of internal air existing inside a storage box, such as a container, includes a pressure regulating valve that regulates a pressure of air that is supplied from an air pump to the gas separation film of the gas composition adjustment unit.

Covers comprising a nonwoven fabric including a plurality of recycled polyester fibers, such as a plurality of staple fibers, is provided. The plurality of recycled polyester fibers may be formed from a post-consumer polyester, a post-industrial waste polyester, or a combination thereof. The covers provide desirable vapor transmission while also providing an improved hydrostatic head. The covers may be provided in a variety of configurations. Methods of forming such covers are also provided.

An improved silo bag extractor that can collect grain or other flowable materials contained therein. As the extractor empties the silo bag's contents into an accompanying grain cart, it simultaneously performs differentiated cuts on the bag, effectively dividing it in two bands of plastic that are directed to the left and right sides of the machine, where they wind tightly around roll-up assemblies equipped with consumable rigid plastic cores. On terminating grain extraction, the used plastic sheet takes the form of two very dense bales that can each weigh 100 kilos or more depending on the original size of the bag. These bales are then released from the machine automatically, proffering several advantages: not having to manually collect large swaths of plastic, not having to rewind the plastic on a second contraption and accomplishing lesser compaction in the process, easier storing and handling, and lower transportation costs to recycling centers.
