The invention concerns a sluice feeder comprising an inlet ( 1 ), an outlet ( 11 ), and a rotor ( 2 ), into which sluice feeder material to be fed from a first medium to a second medium sealed from the first medium is fed to the inlet ( 1 ). The inlet ( 1 ) is directed towards the centre portion of the rotor ( 2 ), the rotor ( 2 ) and a cooperating stator ( 7 ), respectively, show at least a radial opening ( 5, 8 ) each and are provided so that at least one pocket ( 9 ) is formed, which alternating opens and seals upon rotation of the rotor ( 2 ). The material is thrown radially outwards by the rotor ( 2 ) to the pocket ( 9 ) to finally be emptied from the pocket ( 9 ) to the outlet at the same time as the pocket ( 9 ) is sealed towards the inlet ( 1 ) by means of the stator ( 7 ). |
