A bulk bag unloader includes a frame, a bag support, a hopper beneath the bag support and an outlet chute beneath the hopper. The hopper and the outlet chute are mounted to the frame for movement substantially in unison relative to the frame. Two vibrators are mounted respectively on opposite sides of the hopper and synchronized to generate vibratory movement substantially along the axis of the outlet chute. Thus, the vibrators function to achieve an efficient and continuous discharge from the bulk bag and employ the outlet chute to regulate or stop the flow in accordance with system requirements.

What is claimed is: 1. A bulk bag unloader comprising: a frame for supporting a bulk bag of particulate materials, a hopper moveably supported on the frame and disposed for receiving a discharge from the bulk bags supported on the frame, an outlet chute mounted to the hopper and having an inlet communicating with an outlet of the hopper and an outlet spaced from the inlet, the outlet chute defining an axis, two vibrator means mounted to the hopper and synchronized with one another for generating vibratory movement of the hopper and the outlet chute in directions substantially parallel to a vertical plane that includes the axis of the outlet chute and for substantially limiting vibrations in all other vertical planes. 2. The bag unloader of claim 1, wherein the axis of the outlet chute is substantially horizontal. 3. The bag unloader of claim 1, further comprising load cells for measuring loads generated by the frame, the bulk bag and particulates in the bulk bag, and for detecting a weight of particulates discharged from the bulk bag. 4. The bulk bag unloader of claim 1, wherein the vibrators are variable vibrator means for varying rates of discharge from the outlet chute. 5. The bulk bag unloader of claim 4, further comprising a controller connected to the vibrators for controlling vibratory speed and particulate discharge rates in accordance with inputs to the controller.
