The energy absorption device (1) has a mounting portion (2) that is provided for fastening the energy absorption device in or at a conveying channel (50). An energy absorption portion is adjoined to the mounting portion, for reducing the kinetic energy of the grains flowing in the conveying channel. Energy absorption elements are parallely arranged in the mounting portion, and are movably formed in a middle section (6) of the energy absorption portion. Independent claims are included for the following: (1) mouth portion for redirecting grains of supply line; and (2) coulter.
