Method for feeding in and for handling waste material in the channel section of a pneumatic wastes conveying system, in which method waste material or recycleable material is fed into a feed-in container from the input aperture of an input point of a pneumatic pipe transport system for material and onwards into the channel section between the feed-in container and the material conveying pipe, from where the material is conveyed along with the transporting air via the material conveying pipe to the delivery end of the pneumatic material conveying system, where the material is separated from the transporting air. In the method the material is acted upon by the combined effect of suction and replacement air in the channel section by bringing about compression in size in at least a part of the material being conveyed, by means of an impediment arranged between the conveying pipe and the material to be handled, or against the impediment, before transportation of the material to the delivery end of the pneumatic transport system for wastes.

In one embodiment, a pneumatic distribution system configured to distribute a granular product to an agricultural implement includes a first pressure sensor, a second pressure sensor, and a controller. The first pressure sensor is configured to be fluidly coupled to a storage tank configured to store the granular product and positioned upstream of the meter roller. The first pressure sensor is configured to output a first signal indicative of a first static pressure in the storage tank. The second pressure sensor is configured to be fluidly coupled to a component of the pneumatic distribution system, downstream of the meter roller. The second pressure sensor is configured to output a second signal indicative of a second static pressure downstream of the meter roller. The controller is communicatively coupled to the first pressure sensor and to the second pressure sensor. The controller is configured to determine a pressure differential, wherein the pressure differential is the difference between the first static pressure and the second static pressure. The controller may also be configured to generate a first warning when the first static pressure is below a threshold value and output the first warning to an operator interface, generate a second warning when the pressure differential is below a desired range and output the second warning to the operator interface, and generate a third warning when the pressure differential is above the desired range and output the third warning to the operator interface.

An agricultural product distribution system includes an inductor box configured to receive agricultural product and conveyed air to combine the conveyed air and the agricultural product. The conveyed air is configured to direct the agricultural product through ports to multiple distribution units. Moreover the inductor box includes a baffle retention channel configured to receive a removable baffle. Furthermore, the removable baffle includes at least one opening configured to control an amount of conveyed air directed through the ports to the multiple distribution units.

An apparatus is described which introduces cryogenic particles received from a source of particles, having a first pressure, into a moving transport fluid, having a second pressure, for ultimate delivery to a workpiece or target as particles entrained in a transport fluid flow which seals between the source of particles and the transport fluid flow.

A method of manufacturing a meter roller for an agricultural metering system includes stretching a sealing ring. The method also includes disposing the sealing ring between a first ring of a spindle and a second ring of the spindle. The first ring and the second ring are rigidly coupled to a driven shaft of the spindle, and the driven shaft is configured to engage a drive shaft to facilitate rotation of the spindle. In addition, the method includes enabling the sealing ring to contract such that an outer diameter of the sealing ring is less than or equal to an outer diameter of the first ring and an outer diameter of the second ring.

A receiver having a horizontally elongated chamber within a housing, the chamber having a convex triangular cross-section and a dump flap defining a bottom vertex of the triangular cross-section, with a horizontal air/vacuum resin material inlet connecting to the chamber, and a horizontal air/vacuum outlet leading from and connected to the chamber.
