Description:
Abstract:

Grain separators, as they are now culstomarily built, comprise various mechanisms rearwardly of the threshing cylinder for separating the grain from the chaff and straw. These mechanisms include revolving beaters, reciprocating straw racks, shaking fingers and various devices, all designed to thoroughly shake out and separate the kernels of grain. A s the inevitable result of these various mechanisms the separators are unduly long from end to end, making them very expensive to manufacture and also very cumbersome to ship and inconvenient to transport from place to place in use.

Claim:

In a separator, the combination of a separator frame having side walls provided with laterally aligned circular openings; a stationary cylindrical drum of the character described, the ends of which project into and are seated in said openings in the side walls, the drum having an opening through which a blast of air may be delivered, a traveling carrier movable about the drum for delivering material into the path of said blast of air, and means beyond the periphery of the drum and independent thereof for revolubly supporting the carrier.
