ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for weighing down to provide a predetermined quantity for use in filling a garment. An amount of down is withdrawn from a supply of fluffed down maintained within a container, and is conducted into a weighing container. The weight of the down received within the weighing container is measured and the measurement signal determines the amount of down selectively withdrawn from the fluffed down container. The amount of down selectively conducted into the weighing container is controlled independently of the amount of down withdrawn from the fluffed down container. After an amount of down representing a desired weight has been conducted into the weighing container, the down is discharged from the weighing container and used to fill a garment or the like. Selectively controllable inlet and outlet doors and gates control the flow of down from the down container into the weighing container, and also control the discharge of the down from the weighing container after measurement has occurred.
