Claim 6:
7. A seed treating assembly, comprising:
a chute assembly including a first inclined treating surface and a second inclined treating surface spaced apart from the first inclined treating surface;
a first metering roller supported by the chute assembly and configured to meter a first seed curtain of seeds to the first inclined treating surface;
a second metering roller supported by the chute assembly and configured to meter a second seed curtain of seeds to the second inclined treating surface;
at least one nozzle supported by the chute assembly, the at least one nozzle configured to spray directly the first seed curtain and the second seed curtain with a liquid treatment spray;
a tunnel structure extending from the chute assembly;
a trough supported by the tunnel structure; and
a wiper shaft supported by the tunnel structure and configured to rotate, a wiper membrane extending from the wiper shaft,
wherein the trough is configured to collect the first seed curtain and the second seed curtain as collected seeds,
wherein the at least one nozzle is configured to spray directly the collected seeds in the trough with the liquid treatment spray,
wherein the rotation of the wiper shaft moves the wiper membrane to empty the collected seeds from the trough,
wherein the first metering roller defines a first axis of rotation,
wherein the second metering roller defines a second axis of rotation,
wherein the wiper shaft defines a third axis of rotation, and
wherein the first axis of rotation, the second axis of rotation, and the third axis of rotation are substantially parallel and non-coaxial.
