ABSTRACT:
A material feeder device is provided for containing a material that is soluble in water and through which a water stream passes to thereby dissolve the material and deliver it to a lawn or garden through a sprinkler system. The feeder includes a housing open at its top and bottom, which contains the material to be dissolved. The open bottom of the housing provides an outlet for the water stream. A lid assembly is connected to the housing for closing the top of the housing when it is in a first position and for opening the top of a housing when it is in a second position, so that the material to be dissolved can be placed into the housing. A hollow conduit having an inlet connected to a water supply line outlet is provided. The conduit extends upwardly from its inlet through the open housing bottom with the conduit outlet being below the housing top. The only connection between the water supply line and the housing outlet is through the conduit. A check valve is mounted at the conduit outlet to prevent water from flowing back from within the housing through the conduit and into the water supply line.
