Seed inductor box for an agricultural implement having multiple air paths
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A particulate material delivery system for an agricultural implement comprising:
- a first screen and a second screen;
an inductor segment comprising a particulate material supply chamber configured to receive a particulate material from a particulate material tank;
an upper airflow path configured to direct an airflow from an airflow supply through the first screen into the particulate material supply chamber; and
a lower airflow path configured to direct the airflow from the airflow supply through the second screen into the particulate material supply chamber;
wherein the particulate material supply chamber comprises an inlet and an outlet, the inlet is configured to receive the particulate material from the particulate material tank, the outlet is configured to expel the particulate material, and the lower airflow path is substantially parallel to the outlet of the particulate material supply chamber.
