A tubular or cylindrical unit that creates a vortex effect with externally supplied pressurized fluid injected angularly within a transport structure is provided. Such a unit is utilized to either accelerate the vacuum and/or air conveyance of liquids, solid aggregates, and gases, reduce the energy required for such materials transport processes, or both. Such a result is achieved through the introduction of pressurized fluid via a plurality of injectors situated evenly around the circumference of the subject tube, pipe, and/or cylinder, and angled uniformly for an even pressure injection of fluid within the conveyance component thereof. In effect, through such injection of pressurized fluid, the overall transport system may be operated at significantly reduced cost while increasing the efficiency of overall vacuum and air conveyance systems simultaneously. The method of utilization of such a device is also encompassed within this invention.

A method and system of a pneumatic conveying system for moving separated grain and small plant material to an onboard storage tank or out of the combine harvester. The pneumatic conveying system having a gateway for introducing the material into an air flow channel, and with a diverter valve or an airlock directing separated grain and small plant material to the tank or outside of the harvester.

A suction gun includes a gun head is provided with a material suction port configured to suck a material located in an area for sucking, and an air blowing structure including an air blowing pipe and an air blowing hole provided on a pipe wall of the air blowing pipe. The air blowing hole is configured to blow an air flow so as to blow the material to the material suction port.

The present invention relates to a method and system of conveying harvested material within or out of a combine harvester using positive air pressure. The invention provides for a lighter, simpler process of material handling by using positive air pressure to pneumatically convey harvested material. As compared to conventional methods, the present invention incorporates lighter weight components and fewer moving parts. Systems of the present invention have more flexible layouts than conventional methods, which allows for the incorporation of different material types, easier cleaning, and potentially greater ease for process automation.
