Abstract:
One embodiment describes a seed planting system that includes a seed storage tank to store seeds; a seed meter fluidly coupled to the seed storage tank via a flow path, in which the seed meter receives seeds from the seed storage tank and distributes the seeds to ground engaging opener assemblies; and a seed deflector coupled to the seed storage tank directly above the flow path, in which the seed deflector guides the seeds from the seed storage tank into the flow path at an angle relative to a vertical axis of the flow path.

Claim (Index 1):
A seed planting system, comprising:\n a seed gate assembly configured to be disposed between a seed storage tank and a seed meter, wherein the seed gate assembly comprises:\n a gate barrier configured to control seed flow through a flow path from the seed storage tank into the seed meter by moving between an open position and a closed position; and \n a first seed agitator extending substantially perpendicularly from a surface of the gate barrier; and \n a seed deflector positioned directly above the flow path and coupled to the gate barrier by a cable, wherein the cable is configured to actuate the seed deflector as the gate barrier moves; wherein the seed deflector and the first seed agitator are configured to dislodge clumped seeds in the seed storage tank as the gate barrier moves from the open position toward the closed position.
