ABSTRACT:
A device for metering and entraining a measured quantity of a dry, powdered and/or granular product with a gas stream moving in a conduit system. The device includes a hollow housing having a gas inlet opening and a gas and product outlet opening to and from, respectively, the interior of the housing connected to the conduit system so that a gas stream enters and exits the housing in the conduit system. Inlet structure of an appropriate size at the gas inlet opening causes the gas stream to move between the inlet opening and the outlet opening through the interior of the housing at a sufficient velocity to pick up and entrain product in the interior of the housing in the gas stream. Product is allowed to enter the housing through a product receiving opening from a product supply container to facilitate a supply of product to the interior of the housing. A gate and a drive therefor is provided for moving the gate between a closed position blocking the product opening and an opened position spaced from the product opening for allowing the product to enter the interior of the housing. Adjustment structure is provided for facilitating an adjustment of the spacing between the gate and the product opening when the gate is in the opened position to facilitate a metering of the volume of product entering the interior of the housing.
