Abstract: A discharge method and a discharge device for a cleaning device (2) for filters (5, 6), includes a supply line (26) which can be connected to a collection region (23) for removed filter residue (9) of the cleaning device (2). The discharge device (3) has a controllable metering device (4) which adjoins the supply line (26) and which blocks the supply line (26) and receives removed filter residue (9) from the supply line (26) in portions (35) in a meterable manner and discharges same at a different location. For this purpose, the metering device (4) has a metering element (28) which can be moved in a controllable manner, in particular a rotatably and/or movably arranged metering element. The filter residue (9) can be removed from the filter (5, 6) via a backflushing process or in a mechanical manner using a scraper or the like.
