Abstract: The invention relates to a screw for apparatuses for ice-cream production with a vertical whipping vessel. The screw comprises at least one supporting metal blade, fixed to a rotating hub and carrying clutches for removably and substitutably fixing thereon a scraping vane. The screw may further comprise at least a mixture spreading vane acting in cooperation with said scraping vane.

Abstract: The invention concerns a process to perform the alimentary mixtures pasteurization in apparatuses of the type comprising a refrigerating circuit provided with compressor, condenser, expansion valve and evaporator and at least one vessel to contain the alimentary mixture under conditions of thermal exchange with at least one coil. The process according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises the steps of:(a) heating the mixture contained in at least one vessel connecting the components of the refrigerating circuit and the coil to each other in the following order: compressor, coil, condenser, expansion valve, evaporator, compressor(b) cooling the mixture contained in the vessel connecting the components of the refrigerating circuit and the coil to each other in the following order: compressor, condenser, expansion valve, coil evaporator, compressor.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ice-cream machine for family use with removable whisking vessel, of the type comprising its own refrigerating unit formed by a compressor, a condenser, a lamination valve or a capillary and an evaporator in conditions of thermal exchange with the vessel container. In order to allow for the removal of the vessel when the ice-cream is ready, the refrigerating circuit, between said compressor and condenser, has a duct controlled by a solenoid valve, which opens between said lamination valve or capillary and said evaporator, in order to send at the end of the ice-cream formation, the hot gas outflowing from said compressor directly into said evaporator.

Abstract: A pasteurization system for dairy farming products, comprises several basins wherein the pasteurization cycle is effected in sequence so that the heat taken from a basin during cooling phase of the same is utilized to effect the heating phase of one or more basins. This is realized by means of a refrigerating circuit working also as heat pump with a heat exchanger at the end of hot and cold parts. Circuit can be selectively connected with its hot or cold parts to the heating or cooling coil provided for each basin.
