Abstract
A method for feeding a solid-liquid mixture comprised of a liquid and a solid having a specific gravity greater than that of the liquid comprising depositing the solid component around a feed opening disposed at the bottom of a mixing container and feeding the solid-liquid mixture to a container for packing the same through the opening is provided and the method can effectively be carried out utilizing an apparatus comprising a mixing container, a feed opening disposed at the bottom of the mixing container, a feed controlling device disposed below or within the feed opening and characterized in that it comprises a collecting device for depositing the solid component of the mixture around the feed opening. The present invention makes it possible to feed the solid-liquid mixture in a desired constant mixing ratio since the ratio can easily be controlled by simply depositing solid component around the feed opening and changing the cross-section of the flow path at any position from the feed opening to the chute member.
