LOOSEFILL INSULATION BLOWING MACHINE HAVING A CHUTE SHAPE

摘要

A machine for distributing blowing insulation material is provided. The machine includes a chute having an inlet portion and an upper portion. The inlet portion is configured to receive a package of compressed loosefill insulation material. The upper portion extends from the inlet portion. The inlet portion and the upper portion have cross-sectional shapes and sizes that closely correspond to a cross-sectional shape and size of the package of compressed loosefill insulation material. A lower unit is configured to receive the loosefill insulation material exiting the chute. The lower unit includes a plurality of shredders and a discharge mechanism. The discharge mechanism is configured to discharge conditioned loosefill insulation material into an airstream. The cross-sectional shape and size of the inlet portion and the upper portion are configured to direct an expansive force of the compressed loosefill insulation material in a direction toward the lower unit.
