| abstract |
A system for filling containers with solid granules has a body (1) with enlarged tubes (2) containing straight tubes (6) to control the flow of granules. At the tube outlets, the granules are diverted to the periphery by gas jets from perforated tubes (4). A rotating plate (3) has brushes (30) around its circumference, with bristles of various lengths, to disperse the granules on a horizontal plane. A correction system (9, 11-14, 16) delivers partial flows of granules into the body, to compensate for any omissions in the flow of granules through the body from above, into the zones where there is a weak flow. |
