Powder delivery storage container

摘要

A container (24) for storing powder particles has an essentially cylindrical outer wall and a base part. A powder outlet carries out powder particles at the lower end of the outer wall. Several buckets (56) are arranged radially on the base part of the container and equidistantly about its central axis. A rotary drive arrangement (48,50) rotates the buckets about the central axis. A cover (66) extends in the region of the outlet to the interior of the container and covers the space between two adjacent buckets when the space is opposite the powder outlet. Air is blown into the space opposite the powder outlet via an air inlet bore in the container.
