ABSTRACT:
The present application discloses an improved filter assembly used in a dry powder filling machine in which the bottom of the cylindrical measuring cavity for the powder being measured is formed by the improved filter assembly having a cup shaped recess wherein the floor of the recess contains evenly spaced and relatively small apertures. The aperture-containing floor is backed by a screen which allows vacuum to be applied to draw powder into the cavity but which prevents passage of the powder through the screen while the cavity is being filled. Application of gas pressure to the underside of the floor of the cavity expels the measured powder into a container as a discrete slug with relatively little separation.
