摘要

A particle distributor assembly 10 for distributing the particles of a drill sample is described. The distributor assembly comprises a stationary inlet tube 14 through which particles enter the distributor assembly 10, and a rotatable distributor head 16. The rotatable distributor head 16 has an upwardly directed inlet 18 offset from a central axis of rotation of the distributor head 16 and a transversely directed outlet 22 wherein, in use, when the distributor head 16 is rotated at high speed particles entering the distributor head inlet are accelerated outwardly in a radial direction through the distributor head outlet. The particle distributor assembly 10 also has a distributor nozzle 24 having an inlet 26 and an outlet 28, the nozzle inlet 26 being aligned with the stationary inlet tube and the nozzle outlet 28 being aligned with the distributor head inlet. The distributor nozzle 24 is supported between the inlet tube 14 and the distributor head 16 in such a manner that it is constrained from rotating while the nozzle outlet 28 is able to oscillate in a circular motion with the distributor head inlet 18. In use, the oscillating motion of the nozzle outlet 28 helps to promote particle flow and produce a more representative distribution of particles exiting from the distributor head outlet 22.
