Abstract: A machine for the treatment of food mixtures with an improved performance includes a container or cylinder for collecting a food mixture, integral with a frame structure and equipped with an upper lid, for closing the container and hinged to the frame, so as to be in a closed or open position on an upper opening of the container, in the container there being a rotating shaft, which is coaxial to the container and which supports in rotation scraping and mixing blades at the bottom and sides of the inner and bottom walls of the container, a blender being positioned in an opening of the lid. Particularly, the blender can be positioned so to be freely removable.

Abstract: Apparatus for producing so-called soft ice cream comprising a refrigerated feeding tank (12) for a liquid mixture (11) suitable for the preparation of soft ice cream, a group for pasteurising the mixture and a whipping cylinder (50). According to the invention, said group for pasteurising the mixture comprises a heating device (20) for an amount of mixture equal to at least one portion of product, a pre-cooling device (30, 30?) for said amount of heated mixture and a storage tank (40, 40?) for storing the pasteurised mixture at a constant temperature.

Abstract: A device for the production and distribution of cold products, in particular for machines for the production of soft ice-cream, comprises a cylindrical chamber (12) equipped at one end with an inlet mouth (13) for a liquid food mixture and at an opposite end with an extraction tap (14) for the distribution of the cold food product, wherein said cylindrical chamber (12) is externally enveloped by an evaporation chamber (15) for the cooling of the liquid food mixture and contains in its interior a mixer (17).

Abstract: A machine for processing food products in at least one basin (12a, 12b) with the use of a mixer (13a, 13b) activated by a motor (11a, 11b) controlled by an inverter (10a, 10b), in turn in communication with an electronic card with a micro-processor (1), equipped with an electronic bidirectional communication circuit (9) with serial transmission and protocol of the Modbus, Canbus or Profibus type, suitable for revealing the instantaneous state of said inverter (10a, 10b). The process and machine of the invention offer the advantage of controlling the effective execution of each processing phase of the product, repeating it automatically if this is not so.
