An automatic dumping hopper mechanism includes a hopper of an asymmetrical configuration relative to a vertical axis which is mounted for pivoting movement about a horizontal axis with a door normally closing a discharge opening at a lower end of the hopper. A linkage is provided to effect opening and closing movement of the door upon pivotal movement of the hopper. The hopper is so constructed, arranged and disposed as to effect its movement automatically to the dumping position in response to a predetermined amount of material being charged therein.
