摘要： A coating apparatus and method are disclosed for coating tablets with a film, in which the tables transit through a drilled first container where they are coated, then exit the first container and are removed from a rotating element provided on the periphery of a plurality of removal members that are spaced angularly apart from one another, in which each removal member removes a quantity of tablets, raises the removed tables as far as a certain height and then discharges the tablets into a chute that conveys the tablets into a second rotating drilled container, with delicate transfer of the coated tablets from one container to the next.

摘要： Edible coatings comprising scalenohedral calcium carbonate particles are provided. The scalenohedral calcium carbonate particles can act as a white pigment to impart white color properties to the edible coatings, or to opacify edible coatings to act as a substrate to subsequent layers containing colors.

摘要： A self-combining receptacle for producing a coated or partially-coated product or an admixture product is provided according to the invention. This receptacle can comprise a food service container for finger food like French fries having a sealed package of ketchup or other condiment installed in the bottom of the container and below the French fries where a closure panel extending outside the receptacle is pulled in a lateral direction away from the receptacle to peel off the closure panel to open the condiment package inside the container whereupon the French fries automatically drop down inside the container into the condiment contained in the now-opened condiment package. Alternatively, the self-combining receptacle may comprise two open faced vessels that are fitted together to join their common open faces with a common closure panel sealing the two open faces to divide the two vessels containing separate components of an admixture product. When the closure panel is removed from the receptacle or pierced by means of an integral utensil device, the two product components can be mixed together to produce the admixture product. Such an admixture product may comprise a food dish like fruit, granola pieces, chocolate pieces, or syrup mixed into yogurt or ice cream, or an industrial product like two resin components mixed together to produce an epoxy adhesive.

摘要： The invention provides a food coating apparatus and a food production method in which an impact applied when a food material is put can be reduced, misalignment or deformation of a food material can be suppressed, and even a soft food material, an easily-crumbled food material, or the like can be efficiently coated. A food coating apparatus comprises: a flow channel through which a liquid coating material flows; a conveyor to be immersed in the liquid coating material and to make the liquid coating material to flow in a travel direction, the conveyor being arranged on an upper side of a bottom surface of the flow channel; a drive device configured to drive the conveyor; and a putting device configured to put a food product, wherein the conveyor is immersed in the liquid coating material at a putting position where the putting device puts the food product, and the food product is conveyed and coated with the liquid coating material in the flow channel in a state where the food product is supported by the conveyor or is supported by the liquid coating material that is flowing.

摘要： The presently disclosed subject matter is directed to a system and method of preparing personalized nutritional and/or pharmaceutical formulations using additive manufacturing technology. Active pharmaceutical or dietary supplement ingredients are suspended in thixotropic stable carrier medias. The thixotropic suspensions are deposited onto a surface of a solid substrate, which can be a snack bar or small wafer used as a mechanical carrier. The disclosed system enables each additive active ingredient to be variably dosed based on a formula that is determined for each specific individual and manufactured on demand. Once the active ingredients are deposited on substrate, the entire assembly can be enrobed with one or more edible solid coatings to seal the active ingredients and provide taste-masking agent characteristics to the assembly.

摘要： A food holding apparatus configured to hold and release an ingredient having fluidity, including: a base; robot arm coupled to the base; end effector at a tip end of the arm; and controller configured to control an operation of the arm and of the end effector. The end effector includes: a base portion; rotational joint having a rotation axis parallel to a horizontal direction in at least one of postures of the arm; rotary portion rotatably coupled to the base portion by the rotational joint; and a tip end portion attached to the rotary portion and including a concave portion. The controller makes the rotational joint of the tip end portion in a predetermined reference state normally rotate to hold part of the ingredient, stored in a predetermined container, inside the concave portion, and makes the rotational joint of the tip end portion reversely rotate to release the ingredient.

摘要： A method of forming a material structure from structural units contained within a liquid solution in a spray head is described. The liquid solution includes a solvent and a solute, the solute comprising a plurality of the structural units, the structural units including monomer units, oligomer units, or combinations thereof. The method comprises forming droplets of the liquid solution including the structural units, and spraying the droplets on a substrate, thereby substantially increasing the reactivity of the structural units within the droplets relative to the structural units within the liquid solution in the spray head. The increase in reactivity can result from the droplets containing an excess of a particular ion, the ion excess resulting from a voltage applied to conductive walls of the device which dispenses the droplets. The material structure is then formed on the substrate from the more highly reactive structural units within the droplets.
