Patent AT-E399600-T1: [Translated] POWDER APPLICATOR FOR CABLES

The hopper (2) contains the powder (20). A grid (9) closes the small hopper opening. An agitator is included inside. This is positioned to cause flow of powder through the grid, under gravity. No subsequent means of powder conveying is included in the applicator. Once through the grid, it flows under gravity to the cable components (5). An independent claim is included for the corresponding method.
