4 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in silos and'hay containers, and hasfor'its object to'provi'de such a structure with interior slotted walls sothat air'can freely pass from outside-of the structure to'the inside thereoffor ventilating the "material stored within the'structure or-building.
ventilating the building and forcing air through all parts of'the interiorthereof. For this pur- "posethere is provided a passageway from which air may be taken and forced through the building, with means for thus forcing the air.
These and other advantages will appear from the following description taken in connection "withthe drawings.
This'i's a division of my copending application SerfNo/SS'? ,818, filed October 14, 1932, now Pating'orstructure with apart thereof broken away.
Figure 2 is a section on the line 2--.2 of Figure 3. 'Figure 3 is stop plan'view with the roof removed.
Figure 4 is a'vertical transverse section. Figure 5 is a horizontal section showing the various structures in connection with the base.
Figure 6 is a section on the line'6'ti of Figure 3. Thebase of the building consists essentially of two circular walls, an inner wall l and an outer wall 2. The inner wall'forms a pit with a floor 3.
The space between the inner'wall and the outer wall has a floor- 3, which extends outwardly beneath a building-M, to provide a floor therefor.
"The outerwall of the base of the building 34 is indicated by the numeral 5. In the wall 2 leading from the part of the basement beneath the building 34 is a passageway t, which has a fan I therein for causing the air to pass into the annular chamber between the two walls and be forced upwardly through various openings and passageways into the main part of the building above the base.
Mounted upon each circular wall I and 2 is a plurality of blocks arranged in spaced relation ship, for ventilating purposes. The blocks on the wall I are indicated by the numeral 9 and have spaces l l between them for air to pass through. The blocks on the wall 2 are indicated by the numeral ill and have passageways l2 between them through which air can pass. Mounted upon the blocks of both walls and supported thereby is a floor 8.
The outside wall is of the main building is circular inshape though it may be of any suitable shape, and is supported at its lower end on the outside wall structure2, which extends upwardly in the form of a circular flange M which strengthens and protects the lower end of the wall it. The lower end of the wall It has thereon a flange l5, which is embedded in the material of the outside wall of the basement.
Within the outside wall and supported on the 10 inside base wall I is a silo wall l6, which has at its lower end a flange l l resting upon the wall I and attached thereto bymeans of boltslfl.
On the outside of the silo wall, or that wall opposite the wall i3, is a plurality of upright studdings 9, to which spaced boards are attached in any suitable 'manner. The edges of these boards are inclined downwardly toward the annular space formed by the silo wall and the wall it, and are spaced apart to provide downwardly 20 inclinedspaces 2i.
Theseboards provide with the silo wall, spaces .22 through which air may pass between the walls from the basement or pits formed by the base walls into various parts of the building structure. These spaces 22 are connected to the basement through the spaces it between the blocks 9. On the inside of the wall l3 are vertically arranged spaced studdings 23, to which are attached boards 24. The edges of these boards are inclined downwardly toward the interior of the building so that air passing up through the spaces 26 will be directed downwardly through spaces 25 between these boards, into the interior of the building.
In one side of the silo wall is a plurality of "doors '27, throughwhich material stored within the silo may be removed for feeding purposes. It will be observed that the silo wall and the wall l3 are constructed of various members or horizontally disposed sections, one upon the other. By means of this sectional structure the height of the building may be variously arranged without departing from the general principle of the structure. The number of doors 27 may be arranged to suit the convenience. In the present instance one door is shown for each section.
At the bottom of the silo .part of the building is a pit 28, surrounded by the Wall E. On top 5 of the silo wall is a hay distributing silo roof .29, which has in the crown thereof a door 30 through which ensilage may be passed into the silo. On top of the whole structure and supported by the wall I3 is a main roof 3|, which has on the crown 55 thereof a ventilator 32. is a dormer window 33.
At one side of the building and adjacent the wall [3 is a house 34, supported on the wall 5. This house 34 affords a passageway for entrance into the interior of the building structure, and also may afford a passageway through which air may enter into the basement part of the building for ventilating purposes.
At one side of the silo and within the main building is a chute 35, located in a passageway 36 formed by two partitions 31 which extend between the silo wall and the outside wall structure. In the chute and on opposite sides thereof are doors 38, which provide passageways into the chute and into the silo to which the chute is attached. There is also provided in the partitions 3'! doors 39, adjacent the doors 38.
Leading from the passageway 36 is a passageway 40 by which an individual may pass from the silo to some other building to which the silo is attached. For the purpose of delivering hay, ensilage and other material into the interior of the building there is provided a pipe 4 I which has on its inside end a nozzle 42. This nozzle may be shifted from one position to another for distributing the material about in the various parts of the building, or it may extend through the door 30 so that the material will be deposited in the silo. The space between the silo wall and the outside wall may be called a hay space and may be used for the storing of hay. At one side of the building and adjacent the pipe 4| is a platform 43. To the pipe 4| is attached one end of a cable 44, which passes about a pulley supported on the platform 43.
By operating the fan a current of air is caused to enter into the passageway or basement between the walls I and 2, and pass through the spaces II and I2 from which the air will pass upwardly through the spaces 22 and 26, and downwardly through the spaces between the various boards 20 and 24 into the annular space forming the hay chamber.
In the event that the fan were not running there would be a certain amount of natural ventilation, and the air used for ventilating purposes would be directed into the hay chamber in such a manner that it would permeate all parts of the hay within the hay section of the build- It will be understood that I desire to comprehend within my invention such modifications as come within the scope of my claims and my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention,
In one side of the roof way communicating with said passageways, an
inn-er impervious wall mounted on said foundation adjacent the inner portion of said floor, and an inner false wall spaced therefrom and forming therewith an air passageway communicating with air passageways through said floor.
2. In combination, a foundation having an air circulation cellar, a floor mounted over said cellar but spaced above said foundation at intervals to provide air exits from the cellar around the sides of the floor, an outside hay containing wall mounted on said foundation adapted to form the outside of an air passageway communicating with one series of the outer exits around the edge of the floor, a false wall supported by the floor forming the other wall of said air passageway, and an inner impervious Wall and false wall forming an air passageway communicating with the inner air exits around said floor.
3. In combination, a foundation forming within it a basement, a hay container comprising an outer and an inner structure, each structure being composed of two walls spaced apart, one impervious and the other foraminous, whereby air introduced between the two walls will enter the container through such foraminous walls, a floor for the space between the foraminous walls, and air passageways leading from the basement to the spaces between the imperforate and foraminous walls.
4. In combination, an annular vertical foundation wall for a hay containing chamber, a hay container on said wall, an annular inner vertical foundation wall for a silo, a floor mounted on said foundation walls horizontally disposed therebetween and thereover in spaced relationship thereto to form air passageways beneath said floor between the foundation walls and around the ends of the floor, an impervious silo mounted on the inner vertical foundation, a false wall having air passageways mounted on the exterior of said silo, and. a similar false wall mounted on the interior of the hay containing chamber, said air passageways in the ends of the floor communicating with the spaces be-
