摘要

A dischargeable hopper system (10) for a vehicular apparatus is provided. The dischargeable hopper system (10) comprises a fixed assembly (100) including a front support portion (110) and a pair of opposing wing portions (120) extending transversely therefrom to delineate at least a portion of a storage compartment (150). The dischargeable hopper system (10) also comprises a movable assembly (200) releasably coupled to the fixed assembly (100) in pivotally displaceable manner. The movable assembly (200) is displaceable relative to the fixed assembly (100) between open and closed positions responsive to user manipulation of an actuation assembly (300) coupled thereto. The movable assembly (200) in its closed position encloses against the fixed assembly (100) at least a portion of the storage compartment (150), and in its open position opens the portion of the storage compartment (150) for autonomous content discharge therefrom.
