PCT No. PCT/SE82/00176 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 17, 1983 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 17, 1983 PCT Filed May 17, 1982 PCT Pub. No. WO82/04034 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 25, 1982.An apparatus for transferring a pulverulent material from a storage area to a destination site comprises a screw conveyor for transporting the material. The screw conveyor has an inlet and an outlet for the material. A filter surrounds the conveyor at least at the outlet of the conveyor and allows the passage essentially only of air therethrough. A damper at the outlet of the conveyor controls the flow of material from the outlet, and a damper is operative to be opened by the material transported by the screw conveyor. The filter comprises a filter sheet in the form of a circular drum having an inner side and a multiplicity of frusto-conical rings. The rings are disposed on the inner side of the drum and directed with their ends of smaller diameter in a direction towards the damper. The apparatus is useful for filling packages with finely pulverized materials, such as kaolin clay, lime and starch. |
