Invention entitled ‘Device for forming green forage into soil surface piles or into the bunker silos’ (Pat.228852/P.412995)

Description:

The object of the invention is a device for forming green forage in soil surface piles or in the bunker silos, which is used in the production of forage silage.

The invention makes it possible to very accurately spread and knead the individual layers of forage over the entire surface of the pile, resulting in silage of very good quality. At the same time, it increases the occupational safety of the tractor operator, as it reduces the risk of work accidents caused by an uncontrolled change in the path of the tractor sliding off the pile, which is sometimes the cause of overturning of a tractor when working on bunker silos.

Benefits:

  • greater safety during work,
  • greater compaction of forage,
  • greater comfort when working with the equipment during pile formation,
  • better silage quality.

Status of legal protection:

The technology consists of patent Pat.228852 granted by the Patent Office of the Republic of Poland, in force from 2 July 2015.

Property rights to the invention are vested 100% in the Łukasiewicz Research Network – Poznań Institute of Technology.
