  • Patent number: 6695605
    Abstract: Forming station with a metering or dosing hopper, out of which flowable materials, especially chip and/or fiber-form materials are delivered to a spreading apparatus, by which a material fleece is spreadable onto a forming belt, characterized in that a compartmentalized chute (2, 51) is provided vertically and longitudinally in the transport flow between the dosing hopper (1) and the forming belt (4, 53), wherein the compartmentalized chute consists of plural guide plates (9, 39, 40, 41, 54, 56, 57) which are arranged next to one another in the transport direction (36) and which divide the transport flow into plural partial flows (38, 55, 56) in the transport direction (36, 62, 76).
