Device for the quantitatively regulated delivery of bulk product

A device (4) for the quantitatively regulated delivery of bulk product (4) includes a supply tank (2) for the bulk product (4) and a slider element (18), which forms the boundary of an outlet gap (16) on one side. The slider element (18) comprises on its front end an elastic, U-shaped loop (20), the upper part (22) of which is fixed in position, whereas a rear portion of the lower part (24) of the loop (20) is connected to a linear drive (26). The linear drive (26) can be used both to adjust the width of the outlet gap (16) by translational movement of the lower section (24) of the loop (20) and to produce a small-amplitude back-and-forth movement of the lower section (24) of the loop (20). In this way, it is possible to release bulk product (4) of various shapes and sizes reliably and without damage in a quantitatively regulated manner.
