ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE: An outlet gate arrangement for a hopper having slop- ing side walls converging toward each other and defining between their lower edges a discharge opening communicating with a pneumatic discharge tube comprises a gate having an upper surface abuttingly engageable with the lower edges of the side walls, a gate operating mechanism having a part mov- able transversely of the discharge opening, the gate being pivotally connected to the transversely movable part such that, upon movement of the transversely movable part and the gate from a closed position, a portion of the gate slidably follows the bottom surface of one of the side walls permitting the gate to pivot about its pivotal connection to the transversely movable part and thereby move the gate out of sealing engage- ment with the lower edge of the other side wall and away there- from to permit discharge of lading through the discharge opening. The operating mechanism includes a manually actuated linkage for moving the transversely movable part between gate open and gate closed position.
