Abstract
A method and apparatus for accelerating the removal of fully ginned seed from a seed roll established in the roll box of an operating gin stand, whereby the capacity of the stand is enhanced. The apparatus is characterized by a set of vanes attached to a finger shaft, said finger shaft being rotatable to change the angle of projection of the vanes to control the residual lint on the seed. The vanes are located so as to project into a vertical seed discharge shaft as the seed roll sags in its rotation toward the saws. The vanes are spaced to permit the seed roll to rupture as it passes over the vanes and the roll sags into the gap between the vanes, thus releasing fully ginned seed into the seed discharge shaft outside the surface of the saw between the vanes.
