  • Patent number: 4193373
    Abstract: A readily sanitizable spraying apparatus particularly suited for applying an ingredient coating to food products in which the products to be sprayed are carried past spray heads by a conveyor. The heads are formed by interlocking members that are freely separable once removed from a cradle in which they are nested thus exposing delivery chambers within the heads for cleaning. The conveyor may include an endless belt that circulates on a conveyor frame which is pivotably mounted on a base so that it can be removed to expose interior portions of the apparatus, also for cleaning purposes. Since the belt has openings through which the ingredient can be sprayed onto the bottom surfaces of the food product, spray heads can be located below the belt as well as above.
