    摘要: A process for metering the disposition of a food product into cavities forming a pellet. The cavities are defined in a conveyor as individual cavities. Each cavity defines a specific volume. The process includes supplying a quantity of food product in a supply chamber which includes a plurality of nozzles aligned above the conveyor. The nozzles are aligned with a predetermined portion of the cavities. A predefined supply of food product is dispensed and metered through each nozzle. The food product is dispensed through the nozzles into the cavities without exceeding the specific volume of the cavity. The food product is frozen into an individual quick frozen pellet starting immediately upon disposition in one of the cavities. The step of metering the predefined amount of food product includes metering a predetermined weight of the food product.

    摘要: The invention relates to a device (10) for preparing a cooled or frozen and/or foamed product, comprising:—a container (20) where a certain quantity of a fluid at ambient temperature is stored;—expelling means (109) configured to deliver a certain quantity of the fluid into a processing chamber (108) at a certain flow rate;—a processing element (101) rotatable within the processing chamber (108) and configured to mix and/or scrap and/or foam the fluid in the processing chamber;—a cooling element (105) providing a certain cooling power configured to cool at least partially the processing chamber (108) which is at least partially in contact with the fluid. The invention further relates to a container (20) comprising a certain quantity of a certain fluid at ambient temperature, configured to be used with such a device (10). Further, the invention relates to a method for preparing a cooled or frozen and/or foamed product, using a device (10), to the use of such device (10) for preparing a cooled or frozen and/or foamed product and to the use of a container (20) as described in such a device (10) for such preparation.

    摘要: In a method for freezing the surface of one of a food product, the product is placed on a supporting structure (1). This has previously been given such a low temperature that the product when contacting the supporting structure will not freeze on to it. The product is maintained on the supporting structure for a sufficient time to cause at least its surface layer nearest the supporting structure to pass into the frozen state. An arrangement for carrying out the method comprises, in addition to the supporting structure, also means for imparting to it the low temperature, such as means (2-4) for supplying a cooling agent to the underside of the supporting structure.

    摘要: The disclosed frozen confection machine is provided with a series of mold bars each of which contain a plurality of cavities for containing confection material which is frozen in said cavities. The machine is provided with a mechanism for inserting sticks into the partially frozen confection material, means for defrosting the exterior of the cavities to facilitate removal of the frozen confections and a selectively operable device responsive to the inadvertent retention of confection material in one or more cavities to remove the retained confection material by inverting the mold bar and spraying hot water into the cavities to remove the confection material. Moreover the confection machine provides laterally opposed to chains circulating in a closed path in which one reach of the chain, the working reach, associated with filling, freezing, stick insertion and confection removal devices and a return reach. The working reach of the chains are collapsed crowding the series of mold bars in substantially abutting relationship to thereby provide a solid wall of mold bars. This arrangement substantially reduces the number of mold bars required for producing a given number of confections per unit time, substantially reduces contamination of its cavities with brine and substantially reduces the amount of water used since washing of the mold cavity is selective.

    摘要: An apparatus for producing and dispensing a cold product comprises a scraper member operable to scrape a forming wall which is maintained near or below freezing temperature. A substance comprising the product in fluid form is directed to the scraper member and sprayed onto the forming wall during relative movement between the piston member and the wall where it forms a thin layer and the scraper removes the formed product. A cleansing fluid is selectively supplied in one instance to cleanse the apparatus between different substances dispensed, and in another instance, to cleanse and sanitize the apparatus.
