Abstract:
An improved air handing system for a pa1ticulate metering system is provided. The system includes a flow path with an inlet in communication with an intake and an outlet in communication with one or more discharge points. A blower can be in communication with the flow path at the intake and provide an air flow to the flow path. The system can include a plenum within the flow path and in fluid communication with the blower. A plurality of ports can be disposed on the plenum and within the flow path. Each of the ports can be in communication with a discharge point. The system can further include air flow directing members within the flow path. Each of the air flow directing members can be in communication with a separate one of the ports and one of the discharge points.

Claim (Index 7):
An air control system for a particulate meter, the air control system comprising:\n an air origin generating an air flow path; a plenum having a plurality of discharge ports, the plenum being in fluid communication with the air origin and comprising a first portion of the air flow path; a plurality of particulate accelerators comprising a second portion of the air flow path, each of the plurality of particulate accelerators connected to one of the plurality of discharge ports of the plenum and having:\n a. an air inlet; \n b. a plurality of particulate inputs; \n c. an air-particulate output; and \n d. a flow-directing member; \n a plurality of discharge lines comprising a third portion of the air flow path, each of the plurality of discharge lines connected to the air-particulate output of each of the plurality of particulate accelerators; wherein the flow-directing member of each of the plurality of particulate accelerators imparts at least one directional bend in the air flow path within each of the plurality of particulate accelerators.
