Abstract

The present invention relates to a stationary cleaning mill for graff, which is a mixture including grain, chaff and weed seeds. The mill has an entrance for the graff, screening apparatus for separating grain from the graff to produce cleaned grain and millings, a mixture including chaff and weed seeds, and separate outlets for the cleaned grain and millings. The cleaning mill includes a material-conveying fan at the outlet for the millings. The material-conveying fan is adapted to impact the millings to cause crushing or breaking of weed seeds in the millings as the millings pass through the fan. The fan is also adapted to remove the millings from the cleaning mill and propel the millings through the outlet for the millings. In this way, millings may be discharged from the cleaning mill in high volume and the millings may be used for animal feed or the like with reduced tendency for the weed seeds to germinate and grow into weeds.
