Abstract (en)

[origin: US6393722B1] The invention concern a chamber for drying animal waste, in particular poultry manure, adapted to receive a mixture (M) of fresh waste and dry waste, the floor thereof being adapted to retain the mixture (M) while being permeable to air (A), said floor consisting of an assembly of elements (60, 60') each capable of forming means for retaining the waste and including means (T) which periodically enable to transfer outside the chamber (1) and through said floor (6) a fraction of the dry waste. The invention is characterised in that said elements consist of two series of horizontal crosspieces (60, 60') arranged along two superposed parallel planes (P1, P2), said crosspieces (60,60') being arranged such that the floor (6) contains gaps in the vertical direction, and said transfer means (T) consist of at least a sliding drawer horizontally mobile between said two planes (P1, P2) of crosspieces (T), the longitudinal movement of said drawer, capable of sweeping the entire surface of said floor from one end to the other, driving the waste accumulated on said crosspieces (60') of the lower plane (P2) such that they drop by gravity outside the chamber. The invention also concerns a drying installation equipped with such a chamber.
