Abstract: A mixing system includes a mixing machine and a device for collecting material of the mixture that remains adherent to the implement of the machine, at the end of a mixing step. The collecting device has a collecting surface that is associated to movement means designed to guide the surface in a first direction and a second direction, so that this can pass, as a result of the movement in both directions, from a first condition, where the surface extends at least prevalently in the first direction, to a second condition, where the surface extends at least prevalently in the second direction.

Abstract: A system for overturning tanks of kneading machines includes an overturning unit provided with means for fixing a tank to itself. The means for fixing has an elastic actuation member, which is loaded by exploiting the downward movement of the overturning unit.

Abstract: A system for overturning tanks, in particular tanks of kneading machines, includes a vertical supporting structure, an overturning unit, which is mobile along the structure between a lowered position and a raised position and can turn about an axis transverse to the vertical direction, and a system for driving the movement of said unit between said lowered position and said raised position. A further actuation system is provided for governing the movement of rotation of said unit independently of said movement between said lowered position and said raised position.

Abstract: A method for dispensing a mixture to a forming line includes using a hopper to produce individual batches that are fed to the forming line. A given amount of mixture is uploaded in succession, and the hopper is actuated so as to produce from the aforesaid given amount of mixture a maximum number of batches less than or equal to four.

Abstract: A bowl for a kneading machine includes a bottom provided with an opening, a discharge device equipped with a plug, and an actuator configured for moving the plug between a position for closing the opening, in which the latter is engaged by the plug, and a position of discharge of the bowl, in which the opening is disengaged from the plug so as to be able to discharge through it the dough prepared in the machine. The actuator is a linear actuator configured for moving the plug, and cam means are configured for guiding movement of the plug along a path comprising a horizontal rectilinear stretch.

Abstract: A machine for the production of dough mixes for foodstuffs includes a fixed tank and at least two kneading implements with fixed axes of rotation.

Abstract: A machine for the production of dough mixes, in particular dough mixes for foodstuffs, includes a plurality of chambers, set in succession and communicating with one another via respective passages for enabling a flow of dough from each chamber to the next one; and at least one kneading implement provided in each chamber.

Abstract: A machine for the production of dough mixes for foodstuffs includes a fixed tank and at least two kneading implements with fixed axes of rotation.

Abstract: A kneading machine for flour-based mixes, particularly for bakery products, comprises two kneading implements turning within a rotating tank having a cylindrical shape, with concordant directions of rotation, about two axes, which are parallel to the axis of the tank and are set at a distance from the axis of the tank so as to describe two theoretical cylinders that are substantially tangential both with respect to one another and with respect to the circumferential wall of the tank. Each arm describes an orbital movement about the respective axis of rotation and is set inclined with respect to a straight line generatrix of its theoretical cylinder.

Abstract: In a kneading machine including a fixed support structure, a kneading trough supported centrally for rotation about a vertical axis by the fixed support structure, and a rotary kneading tool located within the kneading trough, the kneading tool is rotatable about a substantially horizontal axis. The machine is also provided with fixed counter-members which cooperate with the kneading tool.
