Abstract:
A bale processor has a bale chamber mounted on a frame and a disintegrator shreds material from a bale and discharges shredded material laterally. A fan receives the shredded material through a fan inlet and blows the material out through a fan discharge. A conveyor receives the shredded material from the disintegrator along an inner side thereof. A side opening extends along an outer side of the conveyor and a side door is movable from a closed position, where the side opening is closed and the conveyor is enclosed and moves the shredded material along the conveyor and into the fan inlet, to an open position where the outer side of the conveyor is open and the conveyor moves the shredded material laterally out through the side opening. An auger conveyor mounted only on an end opposite the fan inlet leaves the fan inlet unobstructed, increasing capacity.

Claim (Index 4):
The apparatus of  claim 1  comprising a side opening extending along an outer side of the auger and a side door covering the side opening, wherein the side door is movable from a closed position, where the auger is substantially enclosed and moves the shredded material along the auger and into the fan inlet, to an open position where the outer side of the auger is open and the auger moves the shredded material laterally out through the side opening.
