OPENTECHNICAL PUBLICATION OT-2026-000002098 Device for filling a container with particulate material Published: 2026-09-15T19:10:47.631932Z Permanent URL: https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002098 Categories: Material Handling > Conveying Systems ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABSTRACT A filling device ( 1 ) for filling a container with a particulate material ( 28 ) comprises a supply container ( 2 ) that can be filled with the particulate material ( 28 ), wherein the supply container ( 2 ) has a lower opening ( 2.2 ). Moreover, the filling device ( 1 ) comprises a radial distribution unit ( 3 ), which can be supplied with the particulate material via the lower opening ( 2.2 ) of the supply container ( 2 ) and which is connected to the supply container ( 2 ) in such a way that it can rotate about a rotational axis (A), in order to distribute in the container the particulate material ( 28 ) supplied from the supply container ( 2 ) to the distribution unit ( 3 ). The filling device is characterized in that the distribution unit ( 3 ) can be driven by a drive unit ( 4 ) that is arranged outside the supply container ( 2 ). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenTechnical publication OT-2026-000002098 Published 2026-09-15T19:10:47.631932Z https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002098
