摘要

Personalized device 10 for coefficient of volume housing (11) for storing substantially the same plurality of products (A), the outlet channel 20 and, in the forward direction in the outlet channel (26a, 26b) and rearward (27 ) it provided with a jet oriented apertures, each of which is fluidly connected to a positive pressure source (28). Through the entire direction of the jet holes (26a, 26b) a jet directed to the front due to the positive pressure source may be accelerated or the products individualized within the exit channel, thereby by facilitating increases the spacing between the individual products It is achieved and accurate count. Through the jet holes 27 toward the rear of the jet oriented in the rear generated by the positive pressure source will allow to the product in the outlet channel are returned to the housing. Controller coupled operatively to the pressure source (s) (40) to selectively control the application of a positive pressure to the above-mentioned aperture induces the individualized products or stop. Controller may be associated operatively with the sensor 23 for detecting and counting the product passing through the exit channel.
