摘要： A nurse inductor mechanism (20) for an agricultural seeding implement converts an air seeder meter box into a nurse inductor box to convey seed particles (S) to the singulator of a planting mechanism. The nurse inductor mechanism is detachably mounted on the meter box of the air seeder to receive a supply of seed particles therefrom. The nurse induction mechanism intercepts the normal air flow (13) for the metering mechanism to divert the stream of air into engagement with a pile of seed particles (S) and induce the entrainment of the seed particles for conveyance thereof to the remote planting mechanism. A partition wall divides the nurse induction mechanism into a seed side and an air side. The seed side receives the supply of seed particles from the hopper (12) and allows the seed to pass through a passageway into the air side for engagement by the stream of air. Divider walls (32) are provided to isolate each discharge tube from the other discharges tube (22) so that the planter mechanisms can provide a continuous supply of seed particles. The discharge tubes (22) pass through the nurse induction mechanism in a stacked pair, modular configuration with the respective discharge tubes being adequately separated with respect to the seed side to permit the passage of seed particles therebetween.

摘要： A regulator (25) for a nurse inductor mechanism (20) on an agricultural seeding implement controls the rate of entrainment of seeds into the stream of air directed into the nurse inductor mechanism. The regulator (25) includes a pivoted gate (29) mounted at the discharge opening of the seed reservoir of the nurse induction unit (20) to control the flow of seed particles into a pile for engagement with the stream of air (13) directed thereto. An actuation lever (28), positioned externally of the nurse inductor housing so as to not interfere with the sealed relationship between the divider walls (32) of the distribution apparatus and the housing, is selectively manipulable to move the pivoted gate between closed and opened positions. Once the pivoted gate is moved into the closed position, the flow of seed particles into the distribution apparatus is halted, but the full flow of air can still move through the distribution apparatus and seed distribution tubes to effect a clean-out of the nurse induction unit.
