ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for filling spacer frames for insulating glass with hygroscopic granulated material wherein the conduit connecting a storage tank with the discharge opening for the granulated material exhibits a section having a relatively large cross section and a section having a relatively small cross section, which latter section is turned in the upward direction and the axis of which is offset in the upward direction with respect to the axis of the section having a relatively large cross section. This apparatus is utilized, for example, in a machine for filling spacer frames for insulating glass including two processing arrangements with which holes can be produced in legs of the spacer frame, granulated material can be introduced, and the holes can be resealed. The processing arrangements comprise a plate contacted by the respective leg of the spacer frame and provided with a hole for the passage of a drill as well as the orifices of the conduit for the granulated material and of a duct for sealing compound. In order to place the legs of the spacer frame, seized by clamping devices, in sequence into alignment with the hole for the drill and the orifices for the ducts, the clamping installations and the plate are displaceable relatively to each other.
