DE4310095C1 - Process and installation for producing tree cakes (Baumkuchen) - Google Patents

Abstract

In a process for producing tree cakes, in which at least one baking roll rotating about its own axis is guided successively alternately through containers filled with dough composition and through baking chambers and the resulting article is then separated from the baking roll, in accordance with Patent 4302091, the baking rolls, according to the invention, are guided cyclically through the dough-composition-containing containers (4) and baking chambers (2), movement cycles and standstill cycles alternating with one another. In the case of an installation for carrying out the process, the inlet and outlet openings of the baking chambers (2) for the baking rolls (6) can be at least partially covered by clock-controlled closures (30). This variant of the invention in accordance with the main patent is particularly advantageous when the baking rolls are guided horizontally through the baking chambers. <IMAGE>

Description

Patent 43 02 091 describes a method for Manufacture of Baumkuchen or cake after Baumkuchen type claimed, in which at least one is about your own The rotating baking roller alternately one after the other mass containers filled with dough and through baking chambers led and the resulting baked goods then by the Baking roller is separated.  

This process is made possible with a system in which

• a) several masses arranged alternately one behind the other containers and baking chambers,
• b) a rotating one connected to a drive unit Transport device into which a baking roller can be inserted is and the arrangement of the bulk container and baking oven passes through, and
• c) a device for a rotational movement of a Baking roller

available.

In a preferred process variant, the baking whale zen through the mass container at a constant speed and baking chambers. Furthermore, the baking rollers a constant rotational speed.

It has now been found that it can also be beneficial can, the baking rollers not at constant speed through the bulk containers and baking chambers, but in time, with movement and standstill cycles from each other switch.

It is appropriate that several baking rollers during the Movement cycles at different sections at the same time be fed to the baking system and that each baking roller different at the same time during the standstill cycles Process steps is subjected.  

So z. B. in one embodiment in one clock cycle Three baking rollers can be processed simultaneously by one Baking roller is provided with dough, another a first Baking cycle and a third baking roller a second backzy runs through and that there are more clock cycles connect, the next clock cycle with the Aufbrin dough on the baking roller, where the second one starts Baking cycle of the first clock cycle is complete, and with the first for a fourth baking roller Clock cycle begins.

Such a method variant is then particularly advantageous sticks when the baking rollers pass horizontally through the baking chambers be performed.

In an arrangement to carry out the method According to the invention, the inlet and outlet openings for the Baking rollers in the baking chambers through clock-controlled ver conclusions at least partially coverable. With this execution The heater is on the ceiling of the baking chambers intended.

The closures are controlled so that they only on or off Extend a baking roller are open.

It is also advantageous if the baking chambers for the designed to accommodate several baking rollers at the same time are.  

This process and arrangement variant has the advantage that the baking system is particularly inexpensive to manufacture and in conjunction with baking chambers that have multiple baking rollers can record, nevertheless high throughput can be achieved is.

In one embodiment, the invention is intended to be based on Drawings are explained. Show it

Fig. 1 shows the structure of a tree cake conditioning,

Fig. 2 shows a time-path diagram over a baking phase.

The arrangement of Fig. 1 has a transport device, which consists of two parallel circumferential Transportket th, of which only one Transportket te 101 is visible in Fig. 1. The transport chains are guided horizontally by an arrangement of alternately arranged mass containers 4 and baking chambers 2 one behind the other. Baking rollers 6 are removably mounted on the transport chains at a constant distance, the distance being selected so that two baking rollers can be located in a baking chamber 2 at the same time.

The mass containers can be raised and lowered simultaneously by means of a lifting device, not shown. The baking chambers 2 have panels 30 which cover their inlet and outlet openings. These diaphragms are clock-controlled when the baking rollers 6 are moved in and out of the baking chambers 2 . During the remaining Taktzei th the inputs and outputs are covered by these panels so that the heat radiation from the baking chambers 2 is minimized.

In Fig. 2, the clock regime with six time cycles is shown in a path-time diagram. A first timing t₁ represents the dwell time of the baking rollers 6 in the mass container 4 , a second timing t₂ the transport of the baking rollers in the first baking chamber 2nd The clocks t₃ and t₅ are the dwell times of the baking rollers 2 in different baking sections of the first baking chamber 2 . At time ttakt, the baking rollers 2 are transported from the first to the second baking section of the first baking chamber 2 . At time t₆, the baking rollers 2 are finally transported to the second mass container 4 . Then the cycle regime repeats t₁ to t₆ for the second or further Massebe containers and for the second baking chamber or further baking chambers.

In the time period shown there are three baking rollers 6.1 , 6.2 and 6.3 in the area of the Baumkuchenbackanla ge. The timing is described below starting with the baking roller 6.1 . At the beginning of the period shown, the baking roller 6.1 is dipped in the mass container 4 located in an upper position t 1 ( FIG. 1) in the first period and provided with dough. After this process is completed, the mass container is lowered. In a timing t₂ the baking roller 6.1 is retracted into the baking chamber 2 and remains there during the timing t₃. At this time, the batter applied is baked for the first time. During the time cycle t₂ the second baking roller 6.2 is also moved over the mass container, and for this baking roller the time cycle t₁ begins by being provided with dough. In the clock cycles t 1 and t 3, processes on different baking rolls run simultaneously.

At time t₄, the baking roller 6.1 is transported further inside the baking chamber 2 and baked in a subsequent time t₅ for the second time. Simultaneously to the timing t₄, the baking roller 6.2 is moved into the baking chamber at the timing t₂ and baked at the same time as the timing t₅ at the timing t₃, and the baking roller 6.3 is driven over the mass container 4 and at the same time to the timing t₃ and t₅ at the timing t₁ with dough.

This last-mentioned time sequence, in which the baking rollers 6.1 , 6.2 and 6.3 are in the system, is shown in FIG. 2.

Repeat for other bulk containers and baking chambers then the cycle shown.
