  • Patent number: 10869485
    Abstract: An machine for kneading and extruding pasta, having a body, a motor having a horizontal output shaft, a transmission from the output shaft to a horizontal driven shaft parallel to the output shaft and coaxial to a shaft of a kneading reel, projecting externally to the body in a dough forming tank. The body includes a load-bearing frame, including a sheet metal plate bent substantially 90° to provide a horizontal base, fixed relative to a support, and a vertical wall, on which the dough forming tank is fixed, and an inner reinforcement having a first vertical plate fixed relative to the horizontal base, parallel to and spaced from the vertical wall, a second vertical plate fixed to the inner face of the vertical wall, and a bearing for supporting the output shaft and the driven shaft relative to the first and second plate.

  • Publication number: 20170112147
    Abstract: A machine for kneading and extruding pasta, having a machine body, which includes electric gear motor having an output shaft with horizontal axis, a transmission from the output shaft to a driven shaft with a horizontal axis and parallel to the axis of the output shaft and coaxial to a shaft of a kneading reel, projecting externally to the machine body in a dough forming tank, having below and parallel to the shaft of the kneading reel an extrusion channel, in which a worm screw feeds an extrusion mass for forming pasta. The tank is a hopper, having two lateral walls, opposite and converging at the bottom into the extrusion channel, and two opposite vertical walls, front and rear. The rear wall of the tank is juxtaposed against a vertical wall of the machine body as a stiffening frame, having an upper horizontal cross-member, which forms a top edge of the tank, and a pair of “V-shaped” branches that form respective edges of the opposite lateral walls and of the channel of the tank.

  • Patent number: 6230613
    Abstract: This invention relates to a mould and the related machine for the production of filled pasta, in particular for the production of ravioli, tortellini and the like, equipped with a cutting device designed to improve the way in which the filling is enclosed between the two edges of the pasta. More specifically, the mould comprises at least one seating (2) designed to receive a first sheet of pasta with filling, and a surround (3) which surrounds the said seating; the said surround comprises a zigzag cutting edge (5) designed to press against a surface (4) which supports a second sheet of pasta to be joined to the said first sheet, and said zigzag edge (5) defines a set of wedge-shaped cavities (8) having two opposite walls (6, 7) arranged at an angle, the depth of said cavities (8) increasing, from the said edge (5) towards the inner part of the mould.
