Abstract
Gravity flow blending system for granular materials by use of novel internal handling means which provides for a continuous, uniform withdrawal of material from a multitude of locations in a large capacity bin. The invention utilizes basic principles of solids rheology to provide for a natural internal self-regulation which makes it possible to use this system for a wide range of material discharge rates and granular material types.
