Zusammenfassung:Method and apparatus for distributing pulverulent or particulate materials to a plurality of dispensing points, e.g., for sowing seeds or spreading fertilizer. A supply conduit carrying a main stream of material, for example, entrained in air, arrives at the center of a distributor head with a circular periphery. A deflector or distributor cone or a revolving nozzle distributes the material to a plurality of inlet ends of discharge hoses. Pairs of discharge hoses with their inlet ends located diametrically opposite each other are combined for supplying each dispensing point with a constant uniform flow rate irrespective of the inclination of the distributor head when operating on rough terrain.
