1. A device for applying a particle material, comprising:
- a) an oscillatable rocker having an external wall;
b) an inclined sheet opposite the rocker external wall,c) a leveling element; and
d) a container for receiving the particle material defined by the external wall of the rocker and the inclined sheet, the container including a side opening located above the leveling element on a vertical wall of the container;
wherein in operation, upon coming to a standstill, the opening is closed by an angle of repose of the particle material.

Abstract
This document describes a process and a device for applying fluids, specifically particle material, on an area to be coated, which is viewed in forward moving direction of the coater, that fluid is applied on the area to be coated and then a leveling element is run over the applied fluid, whereby the fluid is led from a metering system provided with an opening, which oscillates when applying the fluid. The opening shall be designed in such a way that when the metering system is at a standstill this is closed by forming an angle of repose of the fluid.

12. A device comprising:
-
a) a bracket; b) a rocker connected to the bracket; c) an eccentric connected to the bracket and the rocker that oscillates the rocker; d) a sheet opposing the rocker so that a container for containing particle material is formed between the rocker and the sheet; e) a side opening in the container for application of the particle material; and f) a leveling element attached directly to the sheet for leveling the particle material; wherein the side opening is closed by an angle of repose of the particle material when oscillation is deactivated, and the side opening is located above the leveling element on a wall of the container that is perpendicular to a build platform located below the device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 20)
