Description

The present invention relates to a mold for the production of foods such as a patty mold or a baking pan, which not only for the conventional purpose of full-forming a food such. For example, a pastry may serve to make a pie or to bake, but also allows a food such as a pie or a bakery product to be in a full-size partial size or juxtaposed to a plurality of foods (eg, pies or baked goods) Bake partial sizes of the full-form.

The baking of cakes and other pastry and confectionery products has traditionally been in (usually reusable and convenient - for example, machine-cleanable) when baking or confectionery is required to form in a particular form during baking ) Bakeware performed. In addition to traditional forms of so-called "refractory materials", so usually oxidic ceramics that can withstand the baking temperatures without significant changes in shape, forms of metal sheet are increasingly used. For easier removal of the baked goods, they can be coated at least on the inside with materials (usually with organic polymers such as, for example, polytetrafluoroethylene, TEFLON ^R ) which reduce the adhesion. Even silicone molds are now in use.

There are traditionally rigid baking molds (such as for "wreath" cake or Guglhupf or small-sized bakery products such as so-called "muffins") and decomposable bakeware (such as so-called "Springfomen") known. The former give by a not changeable in terms of volume baking pan a only by the amount of dough changeable baked good. The latter have a fixed volume of the baking pan, but allow after baking the separation of the baking mold from the baked product by breaking the baking mold in the (serving the baked goods serving) bottom of the baking pan and the (supporting the raw dough and possibly also the finished baked good on Serving edge and expandable or openable, in particular separable from the bottom of the baking mold) edge.

The same applies to molds for the production of other foods such as pies, Bavarian Leberkäs 'or Fleischkäs' and other, in shape to bring foods: They are also produced in rigid, regularly reusable and convenient cleanable forms, which are usually compared to room temperature significantly elevated temperatures can withstand the production of such foods.

Molds for the production of foods such as pie molds or baking molds, whose volume can be adapted to different dough quantities (or different amounts of baked goods to be baked), have not been known to the knowledge of the inventors. Furthermore, to the knowledge of the inventors, molds for producing foods such as pie molds or baking molds have not hitherto been known in which raw masses or doughs of different formulations (but essentially comparable production properties, eg baking properties) are processed side by side (for example cooked or baked).

Furthermore, it was a problem in the prior art for certain foods, after completion, to divide the product (pate, meat / Leberkäs', cake, etc.) into portions suitable for serving, without undesirably portioning the whole product undesirably unsightly Destroying subsets. Every connoisseur is aware of pies-the cake portions-which have been cut by cutting the hard-to-handle mass into sub-pieces that lack the corners or from which part-pieces have broken out. This is in any case undesirable, looks unprofessional and could be avoided if you could produce equal portioned pieces of cooking / baking product in the production.

The object of the invention was therefore to provide a mold for the production of foodstuffs, such as, for example, a patty mold or a baking pan, the volume of which (ie, those for the filling and processing (eg cooking, frying or baking) of raw material (e.g. Dough) available internal volume) can be subdivided into compartments, which are ideally arbitrarily variable in size. This should aim to either process (eg, bake the amount of dough) only portions of the amount of raw material that would be provided for complete filling of the total volume of the food preparation mold, for example the baking pan. or in several compartments of a form raw material (eg doughs) of at least two different recipes process (eg baked), especially if they have comparable processing properties (for example, baking properties).

The object of the invention was also to provide a mold for the production of foods such as a patty mold or a baking pan whose internal volume can be subdivided into compartments whose size is arbitrarily selectable to make portions of the cooking / baking product suitable for serving To provide quantity without having to share the cook / bake product outside the mold after manufacturing.

In preferred embodiments or subclaims or dependent claims, there may be (but need not necessarily be) other elements which relate to, but are not limited to, preferred embodiments of the food preparation of the invention.

However, the terms "comprising,""comprising," and "comprising," respectively, are alternatively also understood to include a complete listing of necessary features of the food-processing form of the present invention 1 and thus give the said terms "comprising", "comprising" or "comprising" more the meaning of "consisting of" (the subsequent elements or features). In further preferred embodiments or dependent claims, however, in these cases, preferred embodiments may be indicated or claimed in the dependent claims, which contain further features of the food-production form according to the invention and thus the invention claimed or described in the independent claim or in the broadest embodiment specify further.

Both meanings of the terms "comprising," "comprising," and "comprising," respectively, are included in the description of the present invention and in the claims, and are indicated by the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "comprising," respectively.

In the following description and in the claims for protection, the terms "top" and "bottom" or "upper" and "lower" are understood as positional information that they are a food preparation according to the invention 1 Characterize in the direction of use, so that the soil 12 a food preparation according to the invention 1 the (wall) in the direction of use referred to, while (for example) in the production of a processed food, a food raw material mass "from above" in the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 is filled, that is, from the (usually) open side, the floor 12 opposite.

The invention will now be described with reference to 1 . 2 . 3 and 5 described. 1 shows a specific example of a food production form 1 namely, a box-shaped food production mold, in a side view. The dashed line shows schematically the side view of a compartment wall 14 in the internal volume of the food preparation mold, as it is usable, for example, in the case where only a partial volume 13a - In the present case, for example, the left of the compartment wall (shown in dashed lines) 14 lying partial volume 13a the food manufacturing form 1 - is filled with the food to be processed. 2 shows a specific example of a food production mold according to the invention, namely a box-shaped food production mold 1 , in view from the head side. 3 shows a specific example of a food production form 1 according to the invention, namely a box-shaped food preparation mold 1 , in perspective view. In the case of processing two different formulations of food in the food preparation of the invention 1 are in the in 3 shown preferred embodiment two compartment walls 14 . 14 spaced at a certain distance and with their substantially right angled upper edges 15 . 15 arranged facing each other. 5 shows a specific example of a food production form 1 according to the invention, namely a box-shaped food production mold, in top view.

In the present application and in the claims for protection, the term "food preparation mold" means a mold which serves its material, its embodiment, its design and its technical structure after the production of food. According to the invention, such food production forms are fundamentally suitable both for the industrial production of foods on a large scale and for the production of foods in a domestic environment.

In this case, "foodstuffs" are understood to mean those materials which are also sometimes referred to as "food raw material" from natural raw materials, where appropriate in the present description and in the claims for protection, optionally with addition of natural additives and if appropriate also artificially modified or separately prepared additives Shapes in a state in which they are suitable or prepared for consumption by man. For example, but not limited to, bread doughs or cake doughs may be baked as food raw materials into bread or cakes as food or, for example, but not limited to, flowable, gelatinous or pasty pate mixes as food. Raw materials can be processed into pies as food, or, for example - but without restrictions - pasty prepared raw meat meats or sausage raw masses or cheese raw materials as food raw material to meat, sausage or cheese can be processed as food. These are only a few examples, which are not intended to limit the invention, but merely exemplify it. The term "flowable" means that such food raw materials are not thin liquid, but have such a viscosity that when filled into a (inventive) food-production mold 1 from a vessel (used, for example, for mixing the ingredients) into the food preparation mold 1 poured or at least distributed (using suitable tools such as spatulas or knives) to a uniform level before being processed (baked, cooked, stewed, etc.).

Especially suitable processes for the production of foodstuffs are, for example, the baking (with the aid of flour, sugar and baking ingredients and baking aids) of a suitable dough into a baking product, the cooking or roasting or cooking of raw educts and ingredients for frying, cooking or cooking. or cooking products, the cooling of flowable or pasty mixtures of suitable starting materials to ice products, to name but a few of numerous conceivable examples.

According to the invention, such food production forms usually no longer consist of the previously used refractory materials, ie oxidic ceramics, which have become out of fashion because of the often difficult cleaning and in particular because of their fragility, but of other rigid materials or of materials that you through can bring the assembly into a rigid shape. Those skilled in such technical field knows such materials and can select them according to the circumstances. Typical materials are metals or their alloys, most of which are made into sheet metal, and such sheets are cut or stamped into matching parts which are processed by welding, brazing, crimping or by other well-known processes of joining sheet metal parts into food production molds become.

More recently, food-manufacturing molds have become common in other (sometimes not rigid) materials. Examples are forms of silicones and comparable polymer materials. However, when the mold is ready and filled with the food to be produced, these are brought into a quasi-rigid form and are therefore also suitable according to the invention.

In practice, forms for the production of food are regularly not provided with a cover. This also applies as a rule to the food production forms 1 according to the present invention. However, this is not mandatory according to the invention: If desired and necessary for certain reasons, such food preparation forms can 1 be provided with a cover, a lid, a cover layer or similar covering facilities. These may be completely closed, but are - if any - not hermetically sealed, if only for the reason that in the manufacturing process gases or vapors escape into the environment (can). Therefore, in any case, a cover is optional and, if present, capable of allowing gas exchange or exchange of vapors (eg, water vapor) with the environment of the food preparation form.

According to the invention, the food preparation comprises 1 at least one outer wall 10 and at least one floor 12 , The at least one outer wall 10 having a certain height, which is not limited, but in the range of 5 to 20 cm, preferably in the range of 7 to 15 cm and more preferably in the range of 8 to 12 cm, for example - and not limited to 9 cm , can lie, and the at least one floor 12 form a fillable with a flowable or pasty food raw material, leak-proof inner volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 ,

The food preparation comprises - as exemplified 1 . 2 . 3 and 5 and also from further figures described in more detail below - at least one outer wall 10 , The term "at least one outer wall 10 As used in the description and in the claims, means for the present invention that at least one outer wall 10 is present, which means that an outer wall 10 , two outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , three outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 , four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 . 10-4 , five outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 10-4 . 10-5 or even more exterior walls may be present. The number of exterior walls 10 is - according to the invention is not limited - and the circumstances according to the expert in this technical area are selected. Preferred embodiments of the invention are food preparation forms 1 that has an outer wall 10 include, food manufacturing forms 1 , the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 . 10-4 include, food-manufacturing forms that 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n (With n = integers ≥ 1) outer walls include, but the invention is not limited thereto.

Particularly preferred embodiments of the food preparation according to the invention 1 , which are described below in variously configured, particularly preferred embodiments, may be an outer wall 10 have, for example, in the described embodiments, ie circulating, that is closed and to a circular or an oval food production mold 1 can belong.

In an alternative, likewise preferred external form, a food preparation according to the invention can be used 1 four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 . 10-4 which, in the described embodiment, then become a square or box-shaped food preparation mold 1 can belong. Such an embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below.

In accordance with the invention, a food preparation comprises 1 according to the invention, at least one floor 12 , This too is out 1 . 2 . 3 and 5 and from further, described in more detail below figures. The term "at least one floor 12 As used in the description and in the claims, in principle for the present invention means that at least one floor 12 is present, which means a soil 12 , two floors 12-1 . 12-2 , three floors 12-1 . 12-2 . 12-3 , four floors 12-1 . 12-2 . 12-3 . 12-4 , five floors 12-1 . 12-2 . 12-3 12-4 . 12-5 or even more floors 12 can be present. The number of floors 12 is - according to the skilled person - not limited according to the invention and can be selected according to the circumstances of the expert in this technical field, for example, if - as will be described later - several juxtaposed compartments of a food-manufacturing form 1 each have their own floor 12 to have. Preferred embodiments of the invention are food preparation forms 1 that a single floor 12 include, without the invention being limited to these.

According to the invention form the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 For example, the one outer wall 10 and one floor 12 or the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 and one floor 12 to mention only two specific, non-limiting examples, an internal volume that can be filled with a flowable or pasty food raw material 13 the food manufacturing form 1 which is leak-proof against leakage of the filled food raw material.

By "internal volume" is in the present description and in the claims by the at least one outer wall 10 - In the amount of at least one outer wall 10 - and the at least one floor 12 circumscribed volumes understood without this "internal volume" 13 also closed with a lid. A closing of the interior volume 13 Although it would be possible in principle by means of a lid, according to the invention, however, it is not mandatory. In practical handling becomes the food manufacturing form 1 according to the invention in the vast majority of cases without the internal volume 13 hermetically sealed lid used, for example, when baking cakes or in the production of a pate. This is also advantageous because in the processes of producing foodstuffs volatile substances (gases, water vapor, etc.) can escape from the food raw material being processed and, in individual cases, should, in the absence of a lid - or at Presence of a lid through one or more opening (s) in the lid - in any case better possible.

The term "dense" and / or the term "tightness", as they are understood in the present description and in the claims, is understood in the present invention that in the internal volume 13 a food preparation according to the invention 1 filled flowable or pasty (or otherwise flowable) food raw materials not at the joints between the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 (In one embodiment of the invention) or at the joints between the at least one outer wall 10 and optionally existing multiple soils 12 or at the joints between any existing multiple soils 12 (In other embodiments of the invention) or at the joints between the at least one outer wall 10 and an optional (at least) one inner wall 11 and the at least one floor 12 (In another embodiment of the invention) can escape. In the same way, the term "dense" and / or the term "tightness" are used in connection with the connection between the at least one compartment wall 14 and the at least one outer wall 12 , which optionally has at least one inner wall 11 and the at least one floor 12 as well as understood above, so that the at least one outer wall 12 , which optionally has at least one inner wall 11 and the at least one floor 12 sealing adjoining compartment wall 14 so connects that into the interior volume 13 or the partial volume 13a . 13b one of the compartments of a food preparation according to the invention 1 filled flowable or pasty (or otherwise flowable) food raw materials do not pass through at the connection points.

The tightness of the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 is achieved in that the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 For example, the one outer wall 10 and one floor 12 , are interconnected or connectable to each other.

Such a connection or connectivity can be brought about by the skilled person in a manner known per se from the prior art, which the person skilled in the art can produce according to the circumstances. For example (and without limiting the invention thereto), a compound may advantageously be used in plastic materials for the food manufacturing form 1 be achieved in that the (at least) an outer wall 10 with the (at least) one floor 12 is integrally connected. Alternatively, for example, in a food manufacturing form 1 According to another embodiment of sheet metal - the (at least) an outer wall 10 at its lower edge with the (at least) one floor 12 be welded or soldered to its peripheral outer edge or connected by co-flanging the respective two edge regions. By the three methods exemplified the respective parts are connected together so that this compound is durable and dense and can be separated only by destroying the connection, at least as a connection between the outer wall 10 and soil 12 can not be solved selectively solvable or restored can be solved. Once made, not only has a mechanically secure connection come about, but also a compound that has a safe against the leakage of flowable or pasty (or otherwise flowable) masses density.

In further embodiments of the invention, a solubility (or refastenability) of the at least one (preferably one) outer wall can also be used 10 and the at least one (preferably one) floor 12 the food manufacturing form 1 be enabled. This can be achieved according to the invention (as known from the state of the art for so-called "springforms") in that a single (eg solid, flat, circular) bottom 12 is provided with a circumferential outer bead and this in a correspondingly sized groove on the lower edge of an outer wall 10 is designed to be feasible. The outer wall 10 is slightly variable in its length (for example, by 1 or 2 cm), for example by means of a Verschließklammer, and can be extended by means of this opening, as is known from common "Springforming". This gives the groove at the lower edge of the outer wall 10 the outer bead of the soil 12 when releasing free. Conversely, by means of the Verschließklammer the outer wall and thus the groove on the lower edge of the outer wall 10 be shortened, causing the placed in the height of the groove circumferential outer bead on the outer edge of the floor 12 with the groove on the lower edge of the outer wall 10 is engaged. Thus, in the above sense, a tight connection between the (at least one) ground 12 and the (at least one) outer wall 10 created, which is solvable with little technical effort and - also with little technical effort - can be restored. Other releasable connections between the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 are also possible.

According to the invention, the food preparation comprises 1 - as an example 1 . 2 . 3 and 5 shown and also from other, hereinafter described in more detail figures - at least one of the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 in at least two compartments 13a . 13b (hereinafter also sometimes called "partial volumes" or "partial volumes") dividing compartment wall 14 ,

The term "at least one compartment wall 14 As used in the description and in the claims, means for the present invention that at least one compartment wall 14 is present, so that a compartment wall 14 may be present or that two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , three compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 , four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 . 14-4 , five compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 14-4 . 14-5 or even more compartment walls may be present. The number of compartment walls 14 is - according to the invention is not limited - and can be selected according to the circumstances of the expert in this technical field and adapted to the requirements. Preferred embodiments of the invention are food preparation forms 1 holding a compartment wall 14 and thereby the internal volume 13 in two compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b share, food manufacturing forms 1 that have two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 and thereby the internal volume 13 in three compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c share, food manufacturing forms 1 , the three compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 and thereby the internal volume 13 in four compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d share, food manufacturing forms 1 , the four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 . 14-4 and thereby the internal volume 13 in five compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d . 13e share, without the invention being limited to these.

Particularly preferred according to the invention is an exemplary food preparation 1 its internal volume 13 through a compartment wall 14 in two compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b without limiting the invention to this preferred embodiment. This case is for example in the 1 . 4 and 5 shown.

This preferred embodiment of the food manufacturing form 1 may, for example, serve to process a smaller amount of a food raw material than that required to completely fill the internal volume 13 a food manufacturing form 1 thought is. The one compartment wall 14 is at a suitable appearing place in the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 used and to the outside wall 10 / the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ...) sealingly connected. The part volume thus formed 13a is filled with the small amount of food raw material, while the other part volume 13b remains unfilled. The food raw material (for example, the cake dough or the pate mass or the Fleischkäs 'raw material) is then processed as usual (baked, cooked, braised, etc.), and so is a food (a cake, a pie, a Fleischkäs') in a smaller quantity than that produced from a complete filling of the entire internal volume 13 the food manufacturing process would result. So can the food manufacturing form 1 in their (fillable) working size, judge the amount of food raw material that you want to process.

In another, also particularly preferred embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 can have two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 in three compartments 13a . 13b . 13c divide. This embodiment is in 3 shown in detail. How out 3 As can be seen, in this particularly preferred embodiment, the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 so in the interior volume 13 the food-manufacturing mold used that the substantially right angled upper edges 14-5 . 14-5 the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 arranged facing each other.

This preferred embodiment of the food manufacturing form 1 may, for example, serve to process several smaller quantities of a food raw material than the amount required to completely fill the internal volume 13 a food manufacturing form 1 thought is. These several smaller quantities can be equal to each other in the formulation of the food raw material and thus yield two smaller subsets of the food during processing. However, the two subsets may also differ in their recipe, as long as they can be processed under substantially the same conditions. The two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 be in suitable appearing places in the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 used and to the outside wall 10 / the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ...) sealingly connected. The two sub-volumes thus formed 13a . 13c are filled with small amounts of the food raw material, while the remaining, between the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 lying partial volume 13b remains unfilled. The food raw material (for example, the cake dough or the pate mass or the Fleichkäs 'raw material) is then processed as usual (baked, cooked, braised, etc.), and so is a food (a cake, a pie, a Fleischkäs') in two smaller quantities than the amount produced by a complete filling of the entire internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 would result. So can the food manufacturing form 1 in their two (fillable) working sizes to the amount of food raw material that you want to process.

Examples of use of this particularly preferred embodiment of the food production form 1 Such cases are the production of a foodstuff in which two different formulations of a foodstuff which are compatible in terms of their processing are to be produced. For baking a cake, for example, it may be desirable to make one subset of raisins (or raisins) and another subset of raisins (or raisins), because these are not desired by some of the future consumers.

In a further, particularly preferred embodiment of the last-mentioned food preparation form, the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 "close together" so close that they are immediately adjacent and with their substantially right-angled upper edges 14-5 . 14-5 arranged facing each other. In this "special case", the average partial volume is omitted 13b or are only two partial volumes 13a . 13b available, which are filled with a food raw material, which then processes becomes. Of course, the pair of compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 at any point of the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 be arranged and thus the sub-volume either in two equal sub-volumes 13a . 13b divide or the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 13 in two different sized sub-volumes 13a . 13b divide.

According to the invention, the exact position of the at least one compartment wall 14 in the interior volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 to form the at least two compartments 13a . 13b variable. This means that the at least one compartment wall 14 , preferably the one compartment wall 14 or the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 or the three compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 or the four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 and 14-4 , anywhere on the interior volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 can be positioned, and once the position (s) set can also be changed, provided that the compartment wall / the compartment walls - as described below - at the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 tightly connects / connect and the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 in compartments, for example at least two compartments 13a . 13b , subdivide / subdivide. The 1 and 5 show, for example, the case of a food production form 1 with a compartment wall 14 forming two different sized compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b , while 3 for example, the case of a food manufacturing form 1 with two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 forming three approximately equal compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c of the total volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 shows. However, the invention is not limited to these cases. This has already been described above and will be described in more detail below with reference to the figures.

According to the invention, the at least one compartment wall closes 14 on the at least one outer wall 10 and the at least one floor 12 sealingly. This is understood in the present description and in the protection claims that - despite variability of the exact position of the at least one compartment wall 14 or more compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , ... - a tight, more precisely dense concern of the at least one compartment wall 14 who has a compartment wall 14 or more compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , ..., both laterally (ie on the at least one outer wall 10 or on several external walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ...) as well as below (ie at the at least one floor 12 or on several floors 12-1 . 12-2 , ...) given is. Specifically, therefore, no pasty or otherwise flowable material of a food raw material may on the outer wall 10 / the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., adjacent side edges of the compartment wall 14 / Compartment walls 14 still on the ground 12 / on the floors 12-1 . 12-2 , ..., adjacent lower edge of the compartment wall 14 / Compartment walls 14 can flow by. Rather, the close-fitting side or bottom edges of the compartment wall provide 14 / Compartment walls 14 For a dense and a passage of pasty (or otherwise flowable) material non-permitting seat. A positional variability of the compartment wall 14 is only in one direction parallel to the at least one floor 12 the food manufacturing form 1 given; at right angles to the bottom surface is the at least one compartment wall 14 used and thus in the perform their function permitting, sealing and to the at least one outer wall 10 , optionally to the at least one inner wall 11 and to the ground 12 sealed subsequent position.

In a preferred further embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 exceeds the at least one compartment wall 14 with its height the height of at least one outer wall 10 , The height of the at least one compartment wall 14 Thus, it may preferably be slightly higher than the height of the at least one outer wall 10 , Further preferred is the height of each compartment wall used 14-1 . 14-2 , ... slightly higher than the height of the at least one outer wall 10 or also of all outer walls 10 , The height difference is - as I said - small and can - without limitation - be between 1 and 5 mm, more preferably between 2 and 4 mm. Next extends the top edge 14-5 the at least one compartment wall 14 , even more preferably the top edge 14-5 every compartment wall 14 , at a substantially right angle, relative to the area of the compartment wall 14 or - in other words - essentially parallel to the ground 12 the food manufacturing form 1 or substantially parallel to the upper edge of the at least one outer wall 10 the food manufacturing form 1 ,

In the practical use of the food preparation of the invention 1 can before filling the food raw material in single or all compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b , ... of the interior volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 the position of single or all compartment walls 14 by inserting the latter into the internal volume 13 the form 1 the size of the compartments 13a . 13b , ... and thus the (partial) volume 13 be created, in which the processed food raw material is filled or alternatively several partial volumes 13a . 13b be created, are filled in the processing of several raw materials to be processed. Alternatively, the processed food raw material in a (part) volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 be filled and then a compartment wall 14 whose position is within the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 is variable, so used or moved that it is positioned immediately adjacent to the filled food raw material.

In another subvolume 13b of the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 can be filled in another food raw material, etc ..

The resulting partial volumes or partial volumes 13a . 13b , ... can have the same volume among each other so that food products with the same volume sizes are created. Such a case is - purely by way of example - conceivable in cases where a pate in the food production form 1 is to be prepared according to the invention and the resulting partial volumes for serving evenly large pie pieces should deliver. Alternatively, however, it is also possible to provide partial volumes or partial volumes with mutually different volumes. This may be useful, purely by way of example, when - as described above - a cake is baked, but a subset should not contain a component of the cake (for example, raisins) because an eater does not like it.

Alternatively, it is also conceivable (for the two abovementioned cases) and according to the invention also comprises that the amount of food raw material for filling the entire food production form 1 insufficient (or alternatively, it has been calculated to be less than one to completely fill the food preparation mold 1 sufficient amount). In this case, then also a partial volume 13a a food manufacturing form 1 be filled with the food raw material (and then processed as usual), while another partial volume 13b remains unfilled, as already described above.

In this way - according to the task set - either only a subset of the quantity of a food raw material (eg - without restriction - the half) can be processed, which is used to fill the entire inner volume of the food production mold 1 sufficient, or it may be in a food-manufacturing form 1 Food raw materials of several recipes are processed side by side. For example, as exemplified above, a cake may be baked whose recipe requires the use of raisins / grape berries, while a subset of the raisin / grape recipe is processed for the eaters who do not like raisins / grape berries.

Furthermore, the invention is capable of food preparation 1 provide by means of compartment walls 14 so in partial volumes 13a . 13b , ..., can be subdivided to make the processed foods in a form and portion that makes it unnecessary to divide the total volume of the finished food into several portions, for example for serving: the compartment wall 14 separated portion can be removed from the food preparation and served as it is. This is particularly preferred, for example, in pies or similar foods whose parts are difficult or impossible (for example because of any solid content components) without "disassembling" them into discrete looking pieces.

A preferred embodiment of the invention relates to a food production form 1 in the form of an octagonal structure (where n is an integer equal to 1 or greater than 1). The preferred food manufacturing form 1 according to the invention comprises: n (with n = integers ≥ 1) interconnected rectangular-flat outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n , and one at n = 1 round, at n = 2 for example semicircular, (at n = integer ≥ 2) n-square, flat bottom 12 that fits with the lower edges of the n outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n is firmly connected. The food manufacturing form 1 includes at least one that passes through the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n and the floor 12 formed interior volume 13 in at least two compartments 13a . 13b dividing compartment wall 14 which are either on one outer wall 10 or at least two outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n and the floor 12 sealingly connects. Alternatively, the at least one compartment wall 14 on through adjacent outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n formed corners and the floor 12 sealingly connect. In a further alternative, the at least one compartment wall 14 on the one hand to an outer wall 10 and on the other hand to one by adjacent outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., 10-n formed corner and to the ground 12 sealingly connect.

A preferred embodiment of the invention provides the case of a food manufacturing form 1 with exactly one (n = 1) rectangular flat outer wall 10 around a circular flat ground 12 is arranged. In another preferred embodiment, the food preparation comprises 1 for example, in the case of n = 2, two rectangular flat outer walls 10-1 and 10-2 and a semi-circular flat bottom 12 , where one of the outer walls 10-1 around the semicircle is arranged circumferentially and the other outer wall 10-2 straight on the semicircle-closing straight of the semicircular bottom 12 is arranged. In the two aforementioned cases further preferably close the lower edges of the outer walls 10 . 10-1 . 10-2 each with the outer edges of the circular or semicircular bottom 12 sealing off.

In the two aforementioned embodiments divides / share at least one compartment wall 14 or exactly one compartment wall 14 or more compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 , ..., most preferably shares a compartment wall 14 , the interior volume 13 in at least two compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b on two sides of an outer wall 10 (n = 1) or on both outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 and the floor 12 sealingly connects.

In preferred embodiments of angular food preparation forms 1 (n = integer ≥ 3) can be the at least one compartment wall 14 or can the one compartment wall 14 or can have multiple compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , ..., not only on at least two outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 , ..., and connect the soil sealingly, but can also attach to an outside wall 10 and to one by two outer walls 10 . 10 formed corner and the ground 12 sealingly connect or can at two by exterior walls 10 . 10 formed corners and the floor 12 sealingly connect. The term "sealingly connecting" has here the meaning that has already been defined above for the term "connect sealingly".

Particularly preferred embodiments of the food preparation according to the invention 1 , which are described below in variously configured, particularly preferred embodiments, may have four interconnected outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 . 10-4 comprising, even more preferably, arranged at right angles to each other and thus forming a box-shaped food production mold. For the production of bakery products or pies, such a food production form 1 usually called a "box shape". Such an embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to 1 to 3 and 5 described.

The four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 In this preferred embodiment, more preferably, rectangular sheets are joined together at the short edges to form the edges of the "box" (for example, without limitation, soldered or crimped) and at their lower edges to the four outer edges of the at least one soil 12 , preferably with the four outer edges of one floor 12 , are connected (for example - without limitation - soldered or crimped). The box thus formed is rectangular in particularly preferred embodiments, which means that the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 and the at least one floor 12 , preferably one floor 12 are interconnected to form respective right angles.

The four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 each have a defined length in this embodiment. This length is basically not limited and can be chosen freely by the skilled person due to the circumstances of the individual case. Preferably, in this embodiment, the lengths of two opposing outer walls 10-1 . 10-3 respectively- 10-2 . 10-4 the same size ("rectangular box"), or the lengths of all four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 . 10-4 are the same size ("square box"). Conceivable lengths of the outer walls 10 are - by way of example and not limitation - in the range of 20 to 50 cm and may preferably in the range of 25 to 35 cm. In practice, standardized lengths of the outer walls have 10 20 cm, 25 cm, 30 cm, 35 cm and 40 cm enforced, but without limiting the invention to these.

The shape of the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 can - in particular embodiments further preferred - also slightly deviate from the rectangular shape, for example, in that the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 near a rectangular shape, but concrete trapezoidal-shaped structures are, preferably with parallel edges above and below, in which case the lower (ie the bottom 12 near) edge of the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 the shorter edge is. The lower edges of the outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 are with the ground 12 - As described above - firmly and sealingly connected. The angles between the outer walls 10 and the floor 12 then also slightly deviate from a right angle and are slightly> 90 °. This embodiment is known to be of particular advantage because of the fact that the foodstuffs produced are slightly larger because of the upper surface of the upper opening of the inventively preferred food production form (compared to the bottom) 1 can be easily demoulded and thus essentially served intact.

In further preferred embodiments, the box is not a box with a square bottom 12 but a box with a rectangular bottom 12 which has adjacent edges of different lengths but opposite edges of equal length. With advantage are so also two outer walls 10-1 and 10-3 as well as the two other outer walls 10-2 and 10-4 each the same length, but gives way to the length of the outer walls 10-1 and 10-3 from the length of the outer walls 10-2 and 10-4 from. Also in this preferred embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 is the rectangular-flat floor 12 with the lower edges of the four outer walls 10-1 . 10-2 . 10-3 and 10-4 forming a substantially box-shaped interior volume 13 firmly connected. Furthermore, at least one compartment wall closes 14 on two outer walls 10-1 . 10-3 or 10-2 . 10-4 and the floor 12 sealingly, creating at least two partial volumes 13a . 13b of the internal volume 13 the preferred box-shaped food preparation form 1 be formed. 1 and 5 each show different views of a food production form according to the invention 1 in which a compartment wall 14 in the interior volume 13 the form 1 two (different sized) partial volumes or partial volumes 13a . 13b forms. 3 shows a perspective view of another preferred embodiment of a food production form according to the invention 1 in the two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 three (in this case essentially the same) partial volumes or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c form. The said preferred embodiments shown in the figures, however, are not limiting, but are merely illustrative of the invention.

In an alternative, likewise preferred external form, a food preparation according to the invention can be used 1 a single outer wall 10 have, for example, then in the described embodiments, for example, circulating, ie closed, and to a circular or an oval food preparation mold 1 can belong. Such an embodiment of the invention will be described below in detail with reference to 4 . 6A and 6B described.

6A and 6B show two such other preferred food preparation forms 1 according to the invention by way of example. Form 1 has an oval diameter (as seen from above) 6B apparent) or a circular diameter (as shown in FIG 6A visible). It includes a circumferential outer wall 10 and one (like 6B visible) oval or (as in 6A visible) circular ground 12 , The circumferential outer edge of the floor 12 is with the lower edge of the circumferential outer wall 10 firmly connected. This can - as in the other cases of food preparation described above 1 according to the invention also - be a solid and sealing connection by means of soldering or flanging and this is in preferred embodiments also. In the described embodiment, the connections between the one circumferential outer wall 12 and one oval or circular bottom 12 Right angle connections.

The surrounding to a circle or an oval, circumferential outer wall 10 has a defined diameter D in this embodiment. This diameter D is basically not limited and can be chosen freely by the skilled person due to the circumstances of the individual case. Conceivable diameter D of the outer wall 10 lie with circular food production forms 1 By way of example and not limitation, in the range of 12 to 45 cm, and may preferably be in the range of 20 to 35 cm, and more preferably in the range of 24 to 28 cm. In practice, standardized diameter D of the circular shape formed by the outer wall of 12 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm, 24 cm, 26 cm, 28 cm and 30 cm have prevailed, but without limiting the invention to these.

Oval food production forms 1 according to these preferred embodiments of the invention have a larger (in 6B measured in the horizontal) diameter D in the range above also for the circular food production forms 1 was specified, and a smaller (in 6B measured in the vertical) diameter d in the range of 8 to 30 cm, preferably in the range of 10 to 30 cm, more preferably in the range of 12 to 25 cm, without the invention being limited to these details.

The preferred - as out 6B visible - oval or - as out 6A apparent - circular food production form 1 According to a preferred embodiment of the invention further comprises at least one compartment wall 14 , which are located at two positions of the circumferential outer wall 10 and the floor 12 sealingly connects. At the in 6A The preferred circular embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention shown is the one compartment wall 14 formed as a rigid wall and divides the internal volume 13 the form 1 in two substantially equal large partial volumes or partial volumes 13a . 13b ,

The outer wall 10 the in 6A shown preferred embodiment of the food production form 1 may be slightly variable in a further, particularly preferred embodiment with respect to the diameter. This concerns the case of a conventional (already mentioned above) so-called "Springform". This can be the bottom 12 who is to carry the finished food, from the outside wall 10 which is intended to support the sides of the food (eg pie, cake or the like) during manufacture, which is known to improve demoldability of the product Serve after production and before serving or consumption. Such an embodiment utilizes an outer wall of variable diameter through one on the outer wall 10 attached bracket. The the circumferential outer edge of the floor 12 forming insert bead is in a corresponding groove on the underside of the circumferential outer wall 10 introduced and there by slightly reducing the diameter of the outer wall 10 brought into engagement with the clip. This will be a solid and tight, but releasable connection of the soil 12 on the outside wall 10 causes and a defined, usually substantially cylindrical (usually open at the top) internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 created.

The compartment wall 14 for the preferred embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention described above 1 is of essentially unchangeable length. With a single compartment wall 14 can do so in a circular shape 1 according to 6A two partial volumes 13a . 13b be created with substantially the same size. However, it is conceivable in a further, even more preferred embodiment that the said "half" partial volumes with one or more further compartment wall / walls 14-2 . 14-3 can each be divided again, whereby the half-part volumes are further subdivided.

A comparable solution is in a further, likewise preferred embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 for an oval food preparation mold 1 according to 6B Suggested: For example, share a (longer) compartment wall 14-1 the internal volume 13 the oval shape over the longer diameter in two halves subvolumes 13a . 13b , which then - according to further preferred embodiments of the invention - by one or more further compartment wall / walls 14-2 . 14-3 .... Can be divided into more sub-volumes.

In a further, likewise preferred embodiment of the food production form according to the invention, the at least one compartment wall 14 or can a compartment wall 14 or can have multiple compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , ... also be variable in length, as described in detail below. As a result, in the internal volume of a food production form according to the invention 1 Partial volumes of the total internal volume 13 which deviate from "regular" sub-volumes such as half or quarter volumes. The latter is particularly in the above-described round or oval food preparation forms, as exemplified in the 6A and 6B described, are advantageous, but can also be used when partial volumes are to be formed in rectangular food production molds including the corners of the molds.

Circular or oval food manufacturing forms 1 can also be formed with angles between the respective circumferential sidewall 10 and the floor 12 that deviate from right angles. An example of such a form is shown in side view in FIG 4 shown. The interior angle between the outer wall 10 and the floor 12 is slightly more than 90 °, wherein the choice of the exact value of the angle for the skilled person is a matter of routine, taking into account the circumstances of the case. As a result, as described in the case of, for example, box-shaped food preparation forms, it is easier to remove the produced foodstuffs both in an oval and in a circular form 1 easier possible.

In a further alternative, likewise preferred embodiment, a food production form according to the invention 1 a circumferential outer wall 10 with a certain diameter and a circumferential (with respect to the diameter of the circulation smaller) inner circumferential wall 11 as well as a circular-shaped bottom 12 have (so-called "wreath cake form"). Such an embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to figures. This will be on 12 directed.

In the 12 shown embodiment of a circular ring-shaped food production mold 1 includes - like the other embodiments described above and preferred embodiments - a single outer wall 10 , This exterior wall 10 is a circumferential outer wall, ie it orbits the entire food production form 1 this preferred embodiment on the outside thereof.

The closed, surrounding outer wall to a circle 10 has a defined diameter D-1 in this embodiment. This diameter D-1 is basically not limited and can be chosen freely by the skilled person due to the circumstances of the individual case. Conceivable diameter D-1 of the outer wall 10 lie with circular food production forms 1 By way of example and not limitation, in the range of 12 to 45 cm, and may preferably be in the range of 20 to 35 cm, and more preferably in the range of 24 to 28 cm. In practice, standardized diameters D-1 have become through the outer wall 10 enclosed circular shape of 12 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm, 24 cm, 26 cm, 28 cm and 30 cm enforced, but without limiting the invention to these.

In the cited preferred embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 There is next to the surrounding outer wall 10 a circumferential inner wall 11 , This is preferably and in practice with particular advantage concentric with the circumferential outer wall described above 10 arranged, which is not mandatory.

The closed to a preferably concentric circle inner wall 11 has a defined diameter D-2 in this embodiment. This diameter D-2 is basically not limited and can be chosen freely by the skilled person due to the circumstances of the individual case, provided that the diameter D-2 of the inner wall 11 smaller than the diameter D-1 of the outer wall 10 , Conceivable diameter of the inner wall 11 are, by way of example and not limitation, in the range of 8 to 30 cm and may preferably be in the range of 10 to 25 cm, more preferably in the range of 12 to 17 cm.

These preferred embodiments of the food preparation of the invention 1 further comprise a circular-shaped bottom 12 , The circumferential outer edge 12-1 of the soil 12 is with the lower edge of the circumferential outer wall 10 firmly connected, for example (not limited) by soldering or flanging, and the circumferential inner edge 12-2 of the soil 12 is with the lower edge of the circumferential inner wall 11 firmly connected, for example (not limited) by soldering or flanging. This is a substantially ring-shaped interior volume 13 educated.

This particularly preferred food preparation form sometimes referred to in the baking of "wreath cake" type cake 1 According to the invention according to the invention further comprises at least one compartment wall 14 at a position of the peripheral outer wall 10 , a position of the circumferential inner wall 11 and the (circular-shaped) floor 12 the form 1 sealingly connects.

The term "at least one compartment wall 14 As used in also at this point of the description and in the claims, means, as above, that at least one compartment wall 14 is present, so that a compartment wall 14 may be present or that two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 , three compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 , four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 . 14-4 , five compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 14-4 . 14-5 or even more compartment walls may be present. The number of compartment walls 14 is - according to the invention is not limited - and can be selected according to the circumstances of the expert in this technical field and adapted to the requirements.

Preferred embodiments of this embodiment of the invention are food preparation forms 1 that have two compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 and thereby the internal volume 13 in two compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b share, food manufacturing forms 1 , the three compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 and thereby the internal volume 13 in three compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d share, food manufacturing forms 1 , the four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-3 . 14-4 and thereby the internal volume 13 in four compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d . 13e share, without the invention being limited to these.

The latter case is in 12 for the example with four compartment walls 14-1 . 14-2 . 14-2 and 14-4 shown, and the four part volumes formed 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d are made 12 seen.

Also for the above-described "donut shape" of the food preparation of the present invention, which is most preferably used in baking cakes, it is conceivable that it be used either for baking a subset of a pie recipe and then two compartment walls 14-1 and 14-2 delimit the partial volume filled with the baking raw material on both sides of the circular ring from the unfilled partial volume of the food production form. As with the food preparation forms described above 1 However, it is also possible that two different recipes are baked to baking raw material in a circular shape. In this case, two compartment walls are used to separate the two formulations 14-1 and 14-2 such as 14-3 and 14-4 in pairs immediately adjacent to each other (or spaced apart a small distance), the substantially right angle angled upper edges 14-5 directed towards each other, as in a comparable manner for a box shape in 3 is shown. The resulting partial volumes 13a . 13b are then filled separately with different recipes of a baking raw material, which are then baked together in the form of a circular ring.

The shape of the compartment wall 14 or the compartment walls 14 is not limited according to the invention and can be chosen freely by the person skilled in the art. In a Embodiment of a food preparation according to the invention 1 can have several compartment walls 14 be used the same or different form. The use of compartment walls 14 the same shape and size is particularly advantageous according to the invention and therefore preferred. This embodiment also serves to save costs by using the same parts. Advantageous is the compartment wall 14 just shaped so that they are with the walls 10 . 11 and the floor 12 the food manufacturing form 1 in which it is used, can seal (ie the internal angle between walls and floor absorbs) and is also so high that they are at least from the ground 12 the form 1 up to the upper edge of at least one outer wall 10 enough. Preferably, however, slightly exceeds the at least one compartment wall, as described above 14 , preferably each compartment wall 14 , with their height the height of at least one outer wall 10 , The height difference between the top of the compartment wall 14 and the top edge of the outer wall 10 is - as I said - small and can - without limitation - lie between 1 and 5 mm, more preferably between 2 and 4 mm. More preferably, the upper edge extends 14-5 the at least one compartment wall 14 at a substantially right angle with respect to the area of the compartment wall 14 , This means that the top of the compartment wall 14 essentially parallel to the ground 12 the food manufacturing form 1 or substantially parallel to the upper edge of the at least one outer wall 10 extends.

In the practical use of the food preparation of the invention 1 in circular ring form according to the preferred embodiment described above, before filling the food raw material into individual or all compartments or partial volumes 13a . 13b , ... of the interior volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 the position of single or all compartment walls 14 by inserting the latter into the internal volume 13 the form 1 the size of the compartments 13a . 13b , ... and thus the at least one (partial) volume 13 be created, in which the processed food raw material is filled. Several partial volumes 13a . 13b . 13c . 13d may be the same size (for example, in each case substantially one quarter of the total internal volume 13 ) or may vary in size, selectable according to the requirements of the case. Alternatively, the processed food raw material in a (part) volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 be filled and then a compartment wall 14 whose position is within the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 is variable, so used or moved that it is positioned immediately adjacent to the filled food raw material.

In another subvolume 13b of the internal volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 Another food raw material can be filled, etc ..

The resulting partial volumes or partial volumes 13a . 13b , ... can have the same volume among each other so that food products with the same volume sizes are created. Such a case is - purely by way of example - conceivable in cases where a pate in the food production form 1 is to be prepared according to the invention and the resulting partial volumes for serving evenly large pie pieces should deliver. Alternatively, however, it is also possible to provide partial volumes or partial volumes with mutually different volumes. This may be useful, purely by way of example, when a cake is being baked, but a subset is not intended to contain a component of the cake (such as raisins) because an eater does not like it.

Alternatively, it is also conceivable (for the two abovementioned cases) and according to the invention also comprises that the amount of food raw material for filling the entire food production form 1 insufficient (or alternatively, it has been calculated to be less than one to completely fill the food preparation mold 1 sufficient amount). In this case, then also a partial volume 13a a food manufacturing form 1 be filled with the food raw material (and then processed as usual), while another partial volume 13b remains unfilled.

In this way - according to the task set - either only a subset of the quantity of a food raw material (eg - without restriction - the half) can be processed, which is used to fill the entire inner volume of the food production mold 1 sufficient, or it may be in a food-manufacturing form 1 Food raw materials of several recipes are processed side by side. For example, as exemplified above, a cake may be baked whose recipe requires the use of raisins / grape berries, while a subset of the raisin / grape recipe is processed for the eaters who do not like raisins / grape berries.

Furthermore, the invention is capable of food preparation 1 provide by means of compartment walls 14 so in partial volumes 13a . 13b , ..., can be divided, that the processed food in a form and portion arise, which makes a sharing of the total volume of the finished food in several portions, for example, for serving superfluous: The through the compartment wall 14 separated portion can be removed from the food preparation and served as it is. This is particularly preferred, for example, in pies or similar foods whose parts are difficult or impossible (for example because of any solid content components) without "disassembling" them into discrete looking pieces.

The shape of the in various food manufacturing forms 1 according to the invention for use coming compartment walls 14 is not limited according to the invention. The skilled person can according to the circumstances compartment walls 14 Select a specific form and use it according to the circumstances.

In preferred embodiments of the invention, the compartment walls are 14 smooth flat or curved sheet-like elements that are essentially over the entire internal volume 13 (Height from the ground 12 to the top edge of a food manufacturing mold 1 ; Width between two walls 10 . 11 ) of a food production form 1 extend. In terms of height, they can even extend slightly beyond the height of the respective walls and thus advantageously create an area where the compartment wall can be found 14 even then can handle, if the entire internal volume 13 filled with finished food.

The thickness of the compartment wall / walls 14 may be arbitrary, but will conveniently be based on the material thickness of the food manufacturing mold 1 orientation in which it is used.

The same applies to the material of the compartment walls 14 the food manufacturing form 1 itself: This, too, will be practically the same as the one for the food-manufacturing form 1 itself or it will be a material that is compatible with the material of the food preparation 1 is compatible. A sheet metal core with a silicone coating has proven particularly useful.

In preferred embodiments of the invention, the compartment wall is 14 (or are the compartment walls 14 if several are used) a flat non-variable element in terms of its size (seen from wall to wall of the food manufacturing mold). As already described above, it closes sealingly against the walls 10 the food manufacturing form 1 to which it is adjacent, and on the ground 12 the form 1 so that filled pasty (or otherwise flowable) components of the food raw material mass can not pass through at the connection points.

In an alternative embodiment of the food preparation according to the invention 1 is / are the at least one compartment wall 14 or at least one compartment wall 14 or more compartment walls 14 or all compartment walls 14 (a) flat straight or area-curved wall / walls, the width of which - is / is variable seen from wall to wall of the food production form. Such a compartment wall 14 can thus be used particularly advantageously in many places, since their width can be adapted to be spanned width of a partial volume. Such adaptability is well known to those skilled in the art, and width adjustment measures found in the prior art may also be used within the scope of the present invention.

A positioning of the compartment walls 14 can be done simply by the material of the compartment walls 14 sealing, ie spatially dense, on the walls 10 . 11 and at the bottom of the food manufacturing mold 1 followed. In this case, further means are for positioning or sealing the at least one compartment wall 14 not provided. This results in at least two compartments 13a . 13b divided and against flow through components of the food raw material dense inner volume 13 a food manufacturing form 1 ,

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is also possible that manufacturer-sided on the insides of the walls 10 (the outer walls 10 and / or the interior walls 11 ) are each provided two narrow parallel webs or webs forming material points, or a plurality of pairs of narrow parallel webs are provided), between which the compartment walls 14 - If necessary, alternatively - can be used.

This not only provides a secure hold on the compartment walls 14 achieved, but also the requirement of tightness of the seat of the compartment wall / walls even better taken into account. Disadvantage of this embodiment is that a free choice of the position of the walls is no longer possible, since the walls should ever be used at the points with the webs. However, this disadvantage can be largely compensated by good choice of the web pair positions.

Furthermore, it is possible to change the locations of the compartment walls 14 that with the at least one outer / inner walls 10 . 11 and the at least one floor 12 the food manufacturing form 1 to come in contact with sealing Materials (for example, a preferably food-solid and more preferably also temperature-resistant plastic or rubber element such as a lip) are provided. This is then in use sealing and the position consolidating between the edge of the compartment wall 14 and the at least one outer / inner wall 10 . 11 and the at least one floor 12 , Such an element may, for example, be in one at the outer edge of the compartment wall 14 extending groove are brought into engagement. Both the safety of the position of the compartment wall 14 as well as those opposite the walls 10 . 11 and the floor 12 sealing property is achieved particularly reliably with this solution.

In a further, particularly preferred embodiment of the inventive food preparation form according to the invention 1 has the compartment wall 14 At least one hanging element that extends outwards in the extension of the edge at its upper edge 16 on, even more preferred two extending in extension of the edge to both sides hanging elements 16 , for example in the form of two the outer walls 10 cross hooks 16 , on, extending over the top of the outer wall 1 or over the top edges of two outer walls 10 . 11 or 10-1 . 10-3 respectively. 10-2 . 10-4 extend and the compartment wall 14 hold tight and tight afterwards. These hanging elements 16 allow a secure hold of the compartment wall 14 especially in the case of the processing of the food raw material usually increased or particularly low temperatures and thus promotes the efficient sealing of the edges of the compartment wall 14 opposite the walls and bottom of the food manufacturing mold 1 ,

In practical use, for example, from the 9 . 10 and 11 becomes a compartment wall 14 with the lower, optionally the above-described hanging hook end remote in the upper part of the still empty inner volume 13 a food manufacturing form 1 inserted. For orientation for the slot position - if available - can serve the positioning web pairs. To anchor the compartment wall 14 Now this is from the top in the desired (possibly predetermined) position in the direction of the ground 12 led the food manufacturing mold and there with tight connection of the side and bottom edges of the compartment wall / compartment walls 14 to the walls 10 . 11 and the floor 12 pressed. Alternatively, it is also possible to change the position of a compartment wall 14 or more compartment walls 14 in the interior volume 13 the food manufacturing form 1 to move advantageously away from the already filled food raw material to the available partial volume 13a . 13b to enlarge and thus adapt to the requirements.

The material of the food preparation forms of the invention may be any material known to those skilled in the art for the purposes of such food preparation forms 1 already knows, without the invention in this regard any restrictions. For example, plastic materials may be used that consist of or include silicone plastics. Further, metals or metal alloys are preferably used, and as an example thereof, materials such as aluminum sheet or steel sheet are exemplified without limitation. The materials may be coated with non-adherent or adhesion reducing coatings, for example, for purposes of better mold releasability after food preparation; As such, the adhesion reducing materials are known in the art bestimmmte organic polymers such as fluorinated hydrocarbons (such as - but not limiting - tetrafluoroethylene, TEFLON ^R ) proven and can also according to the invention as the adhesion of the produced food reducing material on the inside of the food -Herstellungsform 1 be used.

The food preparation mold according to the invention has been described above with reference to preferred embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the figures. The exemplary description is used to better explain and thus facilitate understanding of the food production form according to the invention. However, neither the description nor the examples or the figures are to be understood as limiting the invention.
