Patent

CA 2056202

An air diverter positioned on an upper, forward portion of a sieve-like cleaning shoe in an agricultural combine directs a fan-generated air flow over the cleaning shoe to facilitate separation of chaff from grain which is directed onto and passes down through the cleaning shoe. A plurality of curved, spaced fins, or slats, receive the upward flow of air and deflect the air flow generally horizontally over the clean- ing shoe for directing the chaff toward the rear of the combine where it is discharged. The inter-fin spacing decreases from bottom to top of the air diverter so as to increase air flow velocity for more efficient and higher capacity chaff removal.
