ABSTRACT:
An improved measuring flask is used in a filling apparatus for filling like containers with a like measured amount of divided matter. The filling apparatus includes a housing with a drive mounted in the housing. A filling turret is mounted in the housing and has a rotatable portion driven by the drive. The filling turret includes a filling tank. The tank has a rotatable floor connected to the drive for rotating with the rotatable portion of the filling turret. A plurality of measuring flasks is mounted on the rotatable floor and arranged in a circle concentric with the circle of rotation of the rotating portion of the filling turret. Each of the measuring flasks of the plurality of flasks is connected to the rotatable floor of the filling tank for receiving divided matter from the filling tank. Each of the measuring flasks includes an open ended tube having one end opening into the filling tank. A sleeve is telescopically mounted on each tube and is movable axially along the respective tube. Each of the sleeves has one end engageable with an interior of a bottom of a container which container receives a measured amount of divided matter from the respective measuring flask. Each of the sleeves being limited in downward movement relative to the respective tube allowing free movement of the sleeve until limited in downward movement or engagement with an interior of a bottom of a container.
