“Hopper” refers to a container or device used for holding and dispensing bulk material. In various industries, it is designed to allow material to be poured or dumped from it easily. Hoppers are commonly used in agriculture, construction, and manufacturing for holding and managing grains, seeds, sands, or other materials. They typically have a sloped bottom and an opening at the bottom or side for dispensing the contents.
In Bengali, “hopper” is translated as “হপার” (Hapāra) when referring directly to the device or container. It can also be described more specifically based on its use, such as “শস্য ধারণের পাত্র” (Shasya dhāraṇēra pātra) for a grain hopper or “মাল নির্গমন পাত্র” (Māla nirgaman pātra) for a hopper used in construction or manufacturing.
