ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A weight actuated dispensing mechanism including a bracket adapted to be attached to a conveyor system and having in inlet opening therein for receiving material from the conveyor system, and an outlet opening for allowing the material to exit from the bracket by gravity. A valving mechanism is pivotally attach- ed along an axis to the bracket for movement between a first position wherein the valve mechanism closes the outlet opening of the bracket and a second position wherein the valve mechanism is open to allow material to pass from the conveyor system, through the bracket, to a container disposed below the bracket. A projection on the valve mechanism is provided for automatically increasing the closing force on the valve mechanism as it closes. One end of a flexible line is attached to the valve mechanism and extends over the projection. The other end of the line is attach- ed to the container for holding the container, whereby a pre- determined amount of material by weight is automatically dispensed into the container, upon which event the valve mechanism auto- matically closes to insure that no more than the desired weight of material is dispensed. -1-
