Abstract: A volumetric flow measuring and metering device for flowable solids as a flow passage through which a flow of bulk material may be passed. An obturating device is positioned at the bottom end of the flow passage and is movable in a linear direction toward and away from the bottom end. The obturating device is positioned relative to the bottom end of the flow passage at a distance that imparts a consolidated, column-like flow of the bulk material in the flow passage.
