The invention relates to a device (5, 36, 46, 57, 111) for the intermittent, metered distribution of granules from a reservoir (1, 35, 41, 51, 112), comprising a funnel (2, 82) and a follow-on discharge opening (3, 43, 114). According to the invention, a bifurcation (6, 31, 141) for channelling the granules is provided behind said discharge opening (3, 43, 114), the branch following on from the opening (3, 43) serving as a discharge channel (7, 33, 44, 54, 83, 126). This branch joins the second branch (9) at an angle of <90<o>. The section of said second branch (9) which corresponds to an extension of the discharge channel (7, 33, 44, 54) is closed and is configured as a metering device (10, 34, 62, 121) which is closed at one end. The section leading away from the join with the discharge channel (7, 33, 44, 54), in the opposite direction is configured as a delivery channel (11, 32, 50, 88) with an open discharge opening (12, 89). The bifurcation (6, 31, 141) is therefore able to tilt, pivot and rotate. |
