The metering screw is oriented obliquely with respect to the horizontal. There is further provided a spout supported at the discharge end of the metering screw and arranged for receiving the bulk material advanced thereby. The spout has a downwardly curving configuration and a substantially vertically downwardly oriented outlet opening.
