Abstract: A cooling channel is provided for cooling goods to be chilled, in particular food or pharmaceutical products. The cooling channel includes a cooling tower having an inlet end and an outlet end; a driven conveyor belt on which the goods to be chilled are arranged such that they can be conveyed through the cooling tower from the inlet end to the outlet end; a housing surrounding the conveyor belt and forming a cooling zone in the region of the conveyor belt; a filter unit for filtering air; a cooling unit for cooling the cooling zone; and at least one fan that interacts thermodynamically with the cooling unit and that conveys cooled air from the cooling unit to the cooling zone.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling channel (100) for cooling goods to be chilled, in particular food or pharmaceutical products, comprising a cooling tower (10) having an inlet end (12) and an outlet end (14), a driven conveyor belt (32), on which the goods to be chilled are arranged such that they can be conveyed through the cooling tower (10) from the inlet end (12) to the outlet end (14), a housing (18), which surrounds the conveyor belt (32) and forms a cooling zone in the region of the conveyor belt, a filter unit (62) for filtering air, a cooling unit (42) for cooling the cooling zone, and at least one fan (74), which interacts thermodynamically with the cooling unit (42) and which is designed to convey cooled air from the cooling unit (42) to the cooling zone, wherein the cooling unit (42) and the fan (74) are arranged in a housing region (40) that is separate from the cooling zone and sealed off from is the cooling zone, wherein only a fluid connection is provided for conveying the cooled air between

Abstract: The invention relates to a device having two rotational shafts which are arranged at least essentially parallel to each other and associated with rotational axes (13a, 15a) separated by means of an adjustable distance. The shafts extend respectively through a wall (28) which separates a drive side from the product side, and are sealed with respect to the wall (28).

Abstract: The invention relates to a sieve mill (10) comprising a basket (12) having a curved inner side for supporting a sieve (14) which rests on the curved inner side of the sieve basket (12), and two longitudinal edges (32, 34) which are parallel and opposite each other, also comprising a material inlet (18) arranged above the sieve (14) and a cylindrical rotor (16) which is arranged such that it can rotate inside the sieve basket (12).

Abstract: Apparatus for the material bed comminution of wet agglomerations, in particular wet coke, has a storage container for material to be comminuted, and a material bed roller mill. For efficient grinding, the storage container takes the form of a storage silo having a discharge screw which is moved in two dimensions, wherein the discharge screw feeds the material to be comminuted from the storage silo to a compressor screw which is arranged directly upstream of the material bed roller mill and has at least one discontinuous screw blade.

Abstract: Moulds (12) which comprise mould cavities (20) which are arranged next to one another in rows and may be filled with confectionery mass (K) are arranged on a mould conveyor (10) one behind the other in the conveying direction (a) thereof. On a rotary body (34), which may rotate stepwise about an axis of rotation (36) arranged parallel to the rows of mould cavities (20), stick holders (42) are arranged at angular distances corresponding to the rotary steps. The stick holders (42) comprise rows of radial channels (44), into each of which a stick (S) may be inserted radially from the outside inwards, such that the sticks (S) are held in a position in which they project radially away from the rotary body (34).

Abstract: For producing coiled bakery products comprising two strands each made of an outer and an inner doughy substance, a nozzle arrangement (12) comprises two inner nozzles (14, 16), which are each surrounded by an outer nozzle (18, 20), wherein all of the nozzles (14, 16, 18, 20) are rotatable about a common axis of rotation (148).

Abstract: For producing coiled bakery products, a nozzle arrangement (10) comprises an inner nozzle (14), which is disposed coaxially with an axis of rotation (26), and an outer nozzle (18, 19), which is disposed axially offset relative to said inner nozzle (14), wherein the outer nozzle (14) is rotatable about the axis of rotation (26).

Abstract: Disposed above a loading section (16), on which horizontally arranged strip-shaped packaging material (P) is longitudinally movable, is a shaping wheel (20), which has an, in relation to the loading section (16), transverse central axis (22) and is rotatable about the latter. The shaping wheel (20) has a cylindrical peripheral surface (24) and contains a plurality of moulds (32) which are disposed at angular intervals, starting from the cylindrical peripheral surface (24), radially in relation to the central axis (22). The peripheral speed of the shaping wheel (20) corresponds to a slip-free rolling of its peripheral surface (24) on the packaging material (P). Each of the moulds (32) contains a piston (50) which is movable back and forth between a retracted position for filling the mould (32) with substance (M) and an advanced position for ejecting the consolidated formed body (F) in a radially outward direction onto the packaging material (P).

Abstract: A nozzle holder (14) with at least one nozzle (34′; 34″), which ends at a mouth (38′; 38″), is used for manufacturing baking articles (54) from an extruded strand (56). In order to manufacture baking articles (54) which extend in a plane, the nozzle (34′; 34″) is pivotably mounted by means of a joint with a ball (32) and its mouth (38′; 38″) is displaceable by a pivoting device (45) in two axes (X; Y) extending at right angles to one another. Furthermore, constructed in the ball (32) is at least one connecting duct (48′; 48″), of which one end is connected to a stationary feed duct (50′; 50″) and the other end to the pivotable nozzle (34′; 34″).

Abstract: In order to manufacture coiled baking articles with at least one outer dough material (58) and with at least one inner dough material (56) or dough filling, a nozzle arrangement (10) comprises an inner stationary nozzle (14) and an outer nozzle (18) rotatably enclosing the inner nozzle (14). A mouth (20) of the outer nozzle (18) is arranged behind the mouth (16) of the inner nozzle (14) in the direction of flow in such a manner that the materials flow together at the mouth (16) of the inner nozzle (14) and on the path to the mouth (20) of the outer nozzle (18) the inner material (56) is set in rotation by the outer material (58) and is thereby compressed.
