Abstract: A material calculator for a truck to deliver a predetermined quantity of brine per mile driven by the truck for a known route of miles independent of and proportional to truck speed, wherein the truck carries a known number of gallons of brine and a known number of pounds of salt. The material calculator has a processor accepting entry values of route miles to be driven, number of times the route of miles is to be driven, number of gallons of brine carried by the truck, and the number of pounds of salt carried by the truck. The processor has software for calculating dispensing of the brine and salt so that each is exhausted when the route is completed. A hydraulic pump pumps hydraulic fluid to a variable flow positive displacement pump to implement the calculated number of gallons of brine per mile to be dispensed for the known route.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for precisely controlling distribution of saline, which employs a 6-bit manifold employing 6 solenoid valves for controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid therethrough. The manifold is in hydraulic fluid communication with motor valves. A mathematical formula or a lookup table determines the amount of saline distributed. The system is devoid of feedback. The 6-bit manifold can be employed on a salt spreader vehicle for controlling an improved flighted auger assembly for distributing granular salt from the rear of a salt spreader vehicle. The auger assembly has 3-stages of increasing diameter flights. The largest flight is at a discharge end of the auger assembly. A choke surrounds the ultimate auger flight at the auger assembly discharge end. The space between the choke and the ultimate flight is between about ⅛ and ¼ inch.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for distribution of granular salt or brine from a vehicle. The system includes an auger assembly of a pair of powered independently rotating flighted auger sections disposed in an auger box and receiving salt stored by the vehicle. Each auger assembly has a discharge end surrounded by a choke fitting closely thereto and located at opposite ends. The system also includes a pair of powered spinner assemblies. Each spinner assembly is located beneath an auger discharge end for receiving salt from each auger assembly. Each spinner throws salt operates independently and rotates in an opposite direction. When salt is to be thrown from only one of the spinner assemblies, both of said auger assemblies rotate in the same direction for feeding the spinner assembly that is throwing salt. Nozzles directed onto each operating spinner assembly sprays brine thereonto.
