An apparatus for spreading granular material, such as fertilizer, has a carriage (1) on which there is mounted a vertical conveyer (5, 6) which comprises a vertical cylindrical housing (5) and a conveyer screw (6) rotatably mounted therein. The screw (6) is rigidly connected at its lower end to an infeed cup (8) and directly connected to a driving mechanism (7) below the cup (8). The cylindrical housing (5) and the screw wing of the screw (6) extend downwardly into the cup (8), and the cylindrical housing has guide means (9) conducting the material inwardly towards the screw blade of the screw. The material is supplied from a supply container (1A) directly down into the cup (8). At its upper end, the screw (6) is non-rotatably connected to its spreader (12) to which the granaular material is conveyed via a discharge opening (20) in the cylindrical housing and a distributor disk (21). The effective throughflow area of the distributor disk, as calculated per angular unit in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical housing, varies and is smaller at the beginning and at the end of the discharge opening (20) of the cylindrical housing. |
