Abstract
Disclosed is a dump gate comprised of a three sided metal frame with pivot points attached to the lowest point of the existing bucket's frame on the outside with appropriate hardware. The front side of the dump gate has a proper angled blade that closes the dump gate and contacts the front side of the lower portion of the existing bucket less a safety gap. When the bucket is used to collect engineered material the dump gate raises to allow the bucket to receive its contents. When the bucket is lowered the dump gate drops to the allowed opening that is restricted by its controlling chain and the contents is released in a metered amount allowing both quality and quantity of the contents to be released. The dump gate reduces the need for additional manual labor usually used to control quality and quantity.
