  • Publication number: 20030082284
    Abstract: An apparatus and method is disclosed for forming an emulsion or batter into shaped food products without the use of a casing. The apparatus includes a hollow stuffing tube connected to a source of suitable proteinaceous emulsion, and a molding tube mounted about the stuffing tube, the molding tube having an open end and a closed end. A supply of emulsion is conveyed under pressure into the stuffing tube to form a continuous length of shaped emulsion. Then, the shaped emulsion is directed into the molding tube, where the pressure of the emulsion bears against the closed end of the molding tube and causes the molding tube to move relative the stuffing tube. A treating fluid is directed to the interior surface of the molding tube, such that the interior surface is continuously wetted and evenly coated by the treating fluid, thereby forming a proteinaceous skin about the shaped emulsion.

  • Patent number: 6516728
    Abstract: In a travelling trolley assembly, the two side frame bars (6, 7) which extend on either side of the running rail (2) are connected to one another via two connecting columns (8). The connecting columns (8) are smooth and cylindrical on the outside are fitted into receiving or sliding-guidance devices which are formed in the side frame bars (6, 7) below the running rail (2). In order to adjust the distance between the two side frame bars (6, 7) and to fix the distance which has been set, receiving devices, through which a threaded rod (46) which is parallel to the connecting column (8) passes, are situated in the vicinity of the connecting columns (8). The distance is adjusted and fixed with the aid of screw threads (94, 95), preferably lock nuts, which rest on the connecting rod (46). This type of fixing arrangement does not damage the shape of the guide columns (8), so that dismantling is easy to carry out at any time.

  • Publication number: 20020197368
    Abstract: An apparatus and method is provided for forming shaped food products from an emulsion or batter. A stuffing tube includes a wall defining a central passage for emulsion, and a treating fluid passage positioned within the wall and radially outside of the central passage. The stuffing tube is slideably mounted coaxially within a mold tube. Emulsion and treating fluid are deposited into the mold tube during retraction of the stuffing tube from the mold tube, where the depositions occur substantially without relative motion between the emulsion and the treating fluid, or between the emulsion/treating fluid and the inside of the mold tube. A production machine incorporating an array of stuffing tubes can be indexed with a plurality of arrays of mold tubes.

  • Patent number: 6497400
    Abstract: In a rope hoist (9), the output shaft (37) of the gearing (19) is provided in one piece with an end plate (57). This end plate (57) is designed in such a way that it can be inserted into a locating seat (66) of the tubular rope drum (17). The end plate (57) is screwed in the rope drum (17) by means of radial fitting screws (72). There is also a recess (67) at the other end of the rope drum (17), and a similar end plate (75) can be fastened in this recess (67) in the same manner. This other end plate carries a bearing journal (76). On account of this arrangement, the manufacture of the rope drum (17) and the entire assembly are simplified, complicated shaft joints between the output shaft (37) and the rope drum (17) being dispensed with on account of the mounting of the rope drum (17) by means of the output shaft (37) of the gearing (19). In addition, the rope hoist (9) may be split up into comparatively small subassemblies for dispatch.
