Abstract: A kneading and granulating machine comprises: a container containing a material to be kneaded; a kneading member, which moves along the inner wall surface of the container and revolves and spins at the same time within the container; and a crushing blade, which revolves and spins at the same time within the container to shear the material to be kneaded in the container. The kneading member comprises a blade having a shape corresponding to the inner wall surface of the container, which enables kneading the material to be kneaded between itself and the inner wall surface of the container.

Abstract: A process which includes a hopper for feeding grain, a heater for heating the grains disposed below the hopper, a transport conveyor for moving the grains while contacting them with hot water from a hot water tank, a steaming conveyor receiving the grains from the transport conveyor and exposing them to steam for steaming and evaporating excess water therefrom and an outlet at the downstream end of the steaming conveyor.
Abstract: Continuous-processing type sterilizer and cooker for providing packaged foods completely sterilized with a small heat-energy consumption and retaining the color, fragrance, taste, texture and quality similar to unprepared foods by taking the steps of immersing a product cage, wherein contains the packaged foods, in pressurized hot-water in a sterilization tank, moving the cage within the hot water by means of a drive means for a given period of time, transferring it through a transfer tank from the hot water to a pressurized cooling water in a cooling tank, and moving it within the cooling water by means of a drive means for a given period of time. Both the sterilization tank and the cooling tank are connected to the transfer tank at their one end, the sterilization tank having a preparatory chamber at its other end and the cooling tank having an off-loading chamber at its other end.
