Title:
震動性コンベアから下ろされる製品の調節ゲートシステム
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004523443
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
An improved method and apparatus for distributing a food product, such as potato chips, which provides a laminar flow of product to the weighers. The laminar flow of product is provided using a gate which regulates the amount of product dropped through the distribution conveyor to an amount that is equivalent to the flow rate created by the set of weighers/bagmakers associated with that gate. This results in some of the product being deposited through the gate while the remainder of the product bypasses the gate for deposit in a subsequent gate.
