ABSTRACT:
A chip blowing apparatus for application or dispersion of wood chips or like aggregate material. The invention includes a hopper with an auger for directing materials to the bottom of the hopper. An air lock feeder adjacent to the bottom of the hopper receives material therefrom. A rotating shaft with a plurality of vanes is included in the air lock feeder. Pressurized air is directed into the air lock feeder to fluidize materials and impart momentum thereto, thereby entraining the solid material in an air stream. The entrained material then exits and outlet port and is directed by hose to a nozzle for application of material to surfaces.
