Abstract: There is disclosed a device for loading down which includes a source of air-fluffed down and a blower for delivering down entrained in air through at least one down-loading station. The device includes connections to draw down from its source to a calibrated filter and to reverse the flow through the filter when a predetermined amount of down has been delivered, whereby the down is removed from the filter and delivered, entrained in air, to a loading station. There is also disclosed a two-vessel device for providing a small amount of air-fluffed down from a large, compact capacity.
