Device for spreading distributable material comprising a reciprocatorily swinging distributor pipe

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for spreading distributable material, for example, fertilizer, comprising a hopper containing the material and having an outlet port, communicating with a distributor pipe adapted to swing to and fro, to which a bracket is fastened; the bracket favorably affecting the distribution pattern of the material to be deposited. The invention has for its object to improve the action of the distributor pipe so that a more advantageous distribution pattern is obtained; the invention provides a device in which the bracket holds a deflection member arranged behind the exhaust opening of the distributor pipe, viewed in the direction of flow of the material, the operative surface of the member being at an acute angle to the direction of flow; a further object of the invention is to improve the connection between the bracket with the deflection member and the end of the distributor pipe so that a ready exchange becomes possible.
