Drive-over tile intake guard
A drive-over tile intake guard has a drain tile inlet coupler that rests against the earth surface and does not rise consequentially above the earth. The inlet coupler encompasses and protects the end of a drain tile pipe. A plurality of rods are affixed on a first end to the inlet coupler, and each extend therefrom simultaneously downward into the drain tile and also generally radially toward the center of the tile opening. However, the rods are also each angularly offset from radial to the tile opening center. By angularly offsetting the rods each in the same rotational direction, smaller debris that might block flow through other prior art guards but which will not block the drain tile from functioning will swirl, slip off of the rods and pass into the drain tile, and ultimately be discharged at the outlet end of the drain tile.
