Abstract: An apparatus for automatically manufacturing bean curd and at high production efficiency, free from sticking together of the cut pieces of bean curd and from the propagating of germs. This apparatus comprises a coagulating tank, a bean curd cutting device, a separating device and a packing device. Processes by these devices are carried out in hot water of the temperature at which various germs can not live so that bean curd in a germ-free condition can be produced. Unlike previous devices, both the cutting and packing devices function with hot water keeping the bean curd continuously covered. In this manner the integrity and cleanliness of the bean curd is maintained.

Abstract: A coagulating box for use in making bean curd. This coagulating box is open at its top side and is openable at one of its shorter sides. The openable side comprises a detachable side plate whose height is slightly above the level of soybean milk to be put in a coagulating box at a time and a reinforcing plate. The detachable side plate can be detached or fixed by unlatching or latching. After soybean milk coagulates and a block of coagulated bean curd is cut into pieces of bean curd, the detachable side plate is detached and the coagulating box is put in a water tank and is placed on a conveyor to transfer cut pieces of bean curd in the box onto a conveyor by pulling the box up diagonally.
