  • the soup should be always heated up, and it is necessary to stir it up almost constantly in order to prevent scorching.
  • Special staffs must be assigned for this purpose, and this leads to cost increase for the soups due to the increase of personnel expenditure.
  • the quantity of ingredients to be mixed in the soup may not be maintained at constant level, and initial shape of the ingredients is often lost due to frequent stirring.
  • the soup is not heated up at all times, but it is heated up each time before it is served to the customers. In this case, a certain time is required before the soup is fully heated up, and this causes inconveniences for the customers.
  • the system for allotting soup containing approximately constant quantity of ingredients comprises a container for accommodating the soup with ingredients, means for separating soup and ingredients (may be mixed with soup) in the container, means provided at the lower end of the container and used for accommodating a predetermined quantity of ingredients, and an ingredient accommodating chamber provided in the accommodating means and used for accommodating a predetermined quantity of ingredients, whereby the predetermined quantity of ingredients is dropped down through an opening formed at the lower end of the chamber for accommodating the predetermined quantity of ingredients into a space of a predetermined volume positioned thereunder, and the opening is opened or closed freely.
  • a plurality of heaters for heating up the ingredients and the soup are arranged in longitudinal direction, and when soup surface level goes down and a heater is out of contact with the soup, switch of the heater is turned off due to temperature increase, and when switch of the lowermost heater is turned off, alarm is issued or a predetermined quantity of soup with ingredients is automatically injected into the container.
  • the extrusion rod comprises a rotary cylinder having a cylinder head fitted on tip thereof and a cylinder fitted to and fixed with a rod-like member of the cylinder head protruding from the rear end of the rotary cylinder, and the rotary cylinder is rotatably designed, and the volumetric tube can be smoothly rotated.
