<p>A sluice (2) for discharging bulk material, in particular fibres, from a cyclone device comprises a circumferential wall (4) in the form of a curved bendable band, which defines a generally cylindrical chamber (10) with an inlet (38) for receiving bulk material from the cyclone device and an outlet (14) for discharging bulk material substantially tangentially from the cylindrical chamber. A sluice wheel (16) is rotatable in the chamber about a vertical axis (12) extending through the centre of the sluice wheel for sluicing the bulk material in batches from the inlet through the chamber to the outlet. The inlet (38) is situated centrally above the sluice wheel for supplying bulk material substantially axially to the sluice wheel.</p> |
