In the closed positions, the first and second doors combine to obstruct the front opening, and in the open positions, the first and second doors permit passage through the front opening.

Abstract: A flow control system for filling a bag with a granular product, including an acceleration conduit with a metering side where there is arranged a metering device and a filling side for the bag. A control device with movable control blades and a first sensor is provided at an intermediate point of the conduit. A second sensor is provided on the filling side. The control device and sensors are functionally associated with one another such that the blades of said control device move among one position of said plurality of positions depending on if said first and second sensors detect an accumulation of granular product on said filling side which may delay the filling of said bag.
