Summary: | The invention concerns feeding apparatus, mainly for admixing liquid dressing agents to seeds, comprising a supply tank (1), a feed pipe (2) extending into the supply tank (1) and an overflow pipe (3) arranged on the side of the supply tank (1) at a suitable height. The tank (1) has a rotary or rocking shaft (7) carrying rigidly fixed disk (5), and an axially slidable disk (6), at least one dispensing element (7) arranged on the circumference of the fixed disk (5), a number of prismatic bodies or cylinders (8) coaxially arranged inside the dispensing element (7), fitted in the slidable disk (6), the number of such bodies or cylinders (8) being equal to the number of dispensing elements (7). Arranged inside the circular track of the movement of the dispensing elements (7) and above the height of the overflow pipe (2), there is positioned an open outlet trough (9). The sliding movement of the axially slidable disk (6) is governed by a control device (10). The apparatus (11) is connected to a moving part arranged in the path of the flow of seeds to match the liquid delivery rate to the seed flow rate. |
