Abstract
The invention relates to an incorporation device for an agricultural sprayer, having a lower opening extending about a generally vertical first axis, an upper opening extending about a generally vertical second axis, and at least one side wall connecting the lower opening to the upper opening, the lower opening having a cross-sectional area smaller than that of the upper opening, the incorporation device thus generally having a funnel shape, the lower opening being further defined by a neck capable of reversibly and sealingly connecting to a closed transfer system for transferring a product to a liquid circuit of the agricultural sprayer to which the closed transfer system is connected.

An incorporation device for an agricultural sprayer, comprising a lower opening extending about a generally vertical first axis, an upper opening extending about a generally vertical second axis, and at least one side wall connecting the lower opening to the upper opening, the lower opening having a cross-sectional area, taken perpendicular to the first axis, which is smaller than a cross-sectional area, taken perpendicular to the second axis, of the upper opening, the incorporation device thus generally having the shape of a funnel,
- the incorporation device wherein the lower opening is defined by a neck capable of reversibly and sealingly connecting to a closed transfer system for transferring a product to a liquid circuit of the agricultural sprayer to which the closed transfer system is connected.
An incorporation device for an agricultural sprayer comprising:
- a body having a lower opening extending about a generally vertical first axis, an upper opening extending about a generally vertical second axis, and at least one side wall connecting the lower opening to the upper opening, the lower opening having a cross-sectional area, taken perpendicular to the first axis, which is smaller than a cross-sectional area, taken perpendicular to the second axis, of the upper opening, the body of the incorporation device having a funnel-like shape;
- a neck at the lower opening, the neck being sized and shaped to reversibly and sealingly connect to a closed transfer system for transferring a product inside the body to a liquid circuit of the agricultural sprayer;
- and
- a side opening located between the upper opening and the lower opening, the side opening having at least one sealing ring pressed thereagainst.
