[...] l'alimentateur à chaînes [...] se compose d'un jeu de lourdes chaînes mobiles sans fin, entraînées à vitesse constante par une tête à tourteaux. Ces chaînes ont un certain mou et, frottant sur le tout-venant à son passage dans la glissière de sortie de la trémie de recette, elles en limitent l'écoulement par leur poids tout en le provoquant par leur mouvement.
