ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for dispensing particulate agglomerating solids in accordance with the invention includes a container for holding the particulate solids to be dispensed having a foraminous discharge disposed at the bottom of the container; apparatus for applying agitation to the particulate solids within the container to break up agglomerations to cause the solid to be free flowing through the foraminous discharge; a transporting mechanism disposed beneath the discharge with a top surface along which the solids flow from a receiving area upon which the solids fall upon the application of agitation to the solids to a discharge area having an end from which the solids are discharged, the top surface being substantially flat at the receiving area and being sloped downward from the receiving area to the discharge area; apparatus for applying vibrations to the transporting mechanism for causing the solids to flow from the receiving area to the discharge area; and a controller for causing the activation of the apparatus for applying agitation and the apparatus for applying vibrations during the time which the flow of solids occurs from the container along the transporting mechanism with respective power levels which cause the depth of accumulation in the discharge area to not be substantially greater than the depth of accumulation in the receiving area.
