  • Method and apparatus for discontinuous applications, at a constant pitch, of controlled quantities of absorbent material in granules
    Patent number: 9750644
    Abstract: A device for transforming a continuous and controlled flow of absorbent material in granules into an intermittent flow for providing the material to a receiving member movable along a direction X, including a feed manifold, an outlet and a main body, placed between the feed manifold and the outlet, configured to cause the absorbent material to flow along a direction (Y?-Y?) coinciding with the respective axes of symmetry of the feed manifold, the outlet nozzle and the main body; wherein within the main body a movable element is housed, capable of moving alternately between a first and a second working position, such that when the movable element is in the first position, it forms a first accumulation chamber of the material, and a first discharge duct of the material, and when the movable element is in the second position, it forms a second accumulation chamber and a second discharge duct.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISCONTINUOUS APPLICATIONS, AT A CONSTANT PITCH, OF CONTROLLED QUANTITIES OF ABSORBENT MATERIAL IN GRANULES
    Publication number: 20160228300
    Abstract: A device (20) suitable for transforming a continuous and controlled flow (320) of absorbent material in granules (310) into an intermittent flow (250) for providing to receiving means (50, 60) movable along a direction X, comprising a feed manifold (210), an outlet nozzle (500) and a main body (200), placed between said feed manifold (210) and said outlet nozzle (500), configured to cause said absorbent material in granules (310) to flow along a direction (Y?-Y?) coinciding with the respective axes of symmetry of said feed manifold (210), said outlet nozzle (500) and said main body (200); wherein within said main body (200) a movable element (240) is housed, capable of moving alternately between a first and a second working position, in such a way that when said movable element (240) is located in the first working position, it forms a first accumulation chamber (230) of the absorbent material in granules (310) fed in a continuous manner (320), and a first discharge duct (233) of said material (310), and when
