LIQUID MANURE RECEIVING RESERVOIR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: reservoir comprises accumulating 1 and intake 3 chambers intercommunicated by overflow partition 2. Manure mixer is housed in hollow cylindrical container 10 whose lower end has pressure pipe 11 connected with pipeline 6. Liquid manure pump 5 pumps manure out of lower part of intake chamber 3. Surplus manure flows over the edge of overflow port 9 into accumulating chamber 1. Pumped liquid flows into container 10 where upper part of pressure pipe 11 directs it onto conical splitter 12. The latter moves in vertical plane and contributes to intensive mixing of lower layers of manure. EFFECT: improved design. 2 dwg
