Abstract
A device for feeding charges of non-homogeneous infusion material to a packaging machine includes a metering device for the charges and transfer system for the charges which is positioned downstream of the metering device and which feeds the charges to the packaging machine. The transfer system includes a charge adjustment system equipped with a drum which is rotatable about its own axis A and at least one roller which is rotatable about its own axis B and which is located upstream of the drum. The drum includes a chamber for receiving the charge from the roller. During adjustment of the charge, the chamber is variable between a maximum value coinciding with the receiving step and a minimum value when the charge has been adjusted.
