Grain silo, bunker, Vinnytsia region.

A grain hopper (also known as a backfill hopper) is a special structure used for temporary storage and dosing of grain or other bulk materials. It is usually used in agriculture, agro-industrial complex and grain processing enterprises for reception, storage and further processing ofcereals crops.

The main characteristics of a zaern hopper may include:

Capacity: A hopper has a certain capacity that determines its ability to store grain or other bulk materials. The capacity of the bunker can be different depending on the needs and size of the grain processing enterprise.

Design: A grain hopper can have a variety of designs, including rectangular, cylindrical, or conical. The structure must be strong and stable to withstand the weight of the grain and the load during the filling and unloading process.

Filling system: The grain hopper has a filling system that allowsaccepting grain from vehicles such as trucks or rail cars. The filling system may include a conveyor, auger, chain conveyor or other mechanisms for transferring grain from the transport to the bunker.

Unloading system: A grain hopper may also have an unloading system that allows the grain to be unloaded from the hopper in a controlled manner for further processing or transportation. It can be a door located at the bottom of the hopper, openable valves or other mechanisms.

Safety devices: A sinter bunker can be equipped with safety devices such as level gauges, pressure sensors, fire control systems or other safety measures to prevent emergency situations and ensure safe operation.

Control and automation: Some modern grain silos can be equipped with control and automation systems that allow you to control the processes of filling, unloading, adjusting the grain level and other parameters.

It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions, safety rules and regulatory requirements when using a grain hopper. Regular cleaning, maintenance and control of the condition of the bunker help to ensure smooth operation and quality grain storage.
