Benefits of technology

[0009] A control/power assembly or link is provided for a plurality of structures, such as grain containers (e.g., grain bins, silos, dryers, hoppers, etc.) or production facilities (e.g., poultry houses, pig houses, etc). Each structure includes one or more electrically operated and/or electrically controlled components to be controlled and a component c

Problems solved by technology

The structures can often be located remotely from a residence, making it difficult to monitor the structure.
In such circumstances, it is difficult to prevent others from operating the structure.
For example, it has been known for unauthorized personnel to operate and take the grain from a remote grain container.
Additionally, because the control box remains with the structure, in

Abstract

A control assembly is provided for a plurality of structures (such as grain bins, silos, dryers, hoppers, poultry houses, pig houses, etc.) at an agribusiness. Each structure includes one or more components to be controlled and a component cable to electrically connect the component to a source of power. The control assembly includes a mount for each structure and a control/power assembly which can be mounted to the mounts of the individual structures. The mount is fixedly mountable to a surface on or adjacent the structure and includes a bracket and an electrical outlet connected to a source of electricity. The control/power assembly includes a housing containing control circuitry, a plurality of component outlets each of which is electrically connected to a specific control circuit to receive the component cable of the structure; a connector for electrically connecting the control/power to the mount outlet. The control/power assembly can be mounted to the mount and connected to the components and the source of electricity to operate the components of the particular structure. When operations at the structure are complete, the portable control/power assembly can be removed from the mount and either placed in a secure location or mounted to the mount of a different structure to operate the components of the different second structure.
