Abstract
A filler block for clean grain tanks of grain harvesters which prevents the trapping of grain and other materials in the grain tank. The filler block fills the dead spaces of the grain tank where grain and other materials may be trapped and presents a top surface which sheds grain and other materials to ensure that all such materials are conveyed out of the clean grain tank upon emptying. The filler blocks eliminate the need for manual cleaning and extend the life of the grain tank.
