Zusammenfassung: | An apparatus for apportioning powdered material into each of a series of containers (20) is disclosed which includes a powdered material hopper having a dispensing opening and a rotatable filling head contiguous to the dispensing opening. The rotatable filling head includes a plurality of radially situated chambers (19) each having an open outer end (18) for displacement between the material hopper and the series of containers. A conventional pneumatic means is provided for assisting the filling and emptying of the chambers during the apportioning Process.Within each chamber, the volume of Powdered material received is defined by a Piston (50) having a porous head. The Piston engages a Piston support (52) which includes a threaded surface, the threaded surface engaging a threaded stem (56). The threaded stem is longitudinally fixed in position yet rotatable about its longitudinal axis to effect displacement of the piston head and support longitudinally within the chamber. |
