A spreader apparatus for spreading manure.

摘要

A spreader apparatus is disclosed for spreading manure. The apparatus includes a container which defines an opening for the reception therein of the manure. The container (12) has a first (18) and a second (20) end zone with the first end zone (18) defining an outlet (22) for the discharge therethrough of the manure. A rotatable feed device is disposed within and co-operates with the container for feeding the manure through the container. The feed device (26) has an axis of rotation (30) which extends through the end zones of the container. A rotatable discharge device (32) is disposed within the container and co-operates with the container and the feed device for moving the manure towards the outlet. The discharge (32) device has a further axis of rotation which is disposed spaced and parallel to and laterally below the axis of rotation of the feed device (26). The arrangement is such that when the feed and discharge devices are rotating, all of the manure within the container is fed at a substantially constant rate towards the outlet.
