Description

The invention relates to a decomposable die for a production machine

  pasta of the type

  by two elements that can be combined with each other.

  The traditional construction lines that produce the sections of passage of the pate, directly in a single main body present difficulties from the point of view of the cleaning and more generally, the maneuver-the

sector itself.

  In practice, the dough, which has been put into the form desired by the extension operation, strikes the body of the die energetically and tends to come to a standstill.

  thus seal the passage sections because of its hardening

  ment. The interstices of the die are difficult to clean even immediately after the production of pasta, which is

  a disadvantage if it leaves the dough time to harden.

  It should also be noted that the known sectors are

  consisting of several elements to be combined with each other.

  The object of the invention is to provide a die with which the handling and cleaning operations are

simplified.

  According to the invention, the die type

  combinations, which is associated with a traditional unit of ex-

  trusion, by means of a threaded ferrule, is constituted by two disc-shaped elements that can be coupled to each other, the first of which is provided with several solid bodies with circular section projecting from one of its faces, while the second is provided with perforations able to receive with a certain game the solid bodies of the first disc. This die is essentially characterized in that the first disk-shaped element is provided with circular holes coaxial with the solid bodies and of greater diameter than these, the positioning of these solid bodies in correspondence with each of the bores and the reciprocal positioning first and second discs are obtained by means of ribs provided for in

  base of the holes of the first disc.

  The die according to the invention is furthermore characterized

  characterized in that the passage sections of the extruded paste through the die are defined, in the first disc, by the free spaces between the ribs mentioned and the perimeter of the bores, and in the second disc, by the respective contiguous contours circular solid bodies of the first disk and tapered section holes of the second disk.

  The description below relates to a way of realizing

  use of a die according to the invention, suitable for the production of macaroni and other types of pasta with holes, represented by way of nonlimiting example in the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a front elevational view on the die forming disc side of the die; - Figure 2 is a sectional view through II-II of Figure 1, with the two components of the die; FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the first disk on its face provided with solid projecting bodies; FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of the second disk-shaped element on the inlet side of the dough

  exiting the extension device to the die.

  The die designated by the reference 1 in FIG. 1 is made of the coupling of two elements in the form of

  discs 2 and 3, respectively shown in Figures 3 and 4.

  The disk element 2 consists of a disk 4 provided with an edge 4 'entirely made of a plastic material or light metal. This disk 2 is provided on its face 4 of solid bodies 5, substantially cylindrical in shape, and holes 6 full thickness These solid bodies 5 are centered, coaxially with the holes 6 and protrude above the surface of the discs 4 by means of ribs 7, which are only

  number of four, which extend to a certain distance

  above the surface of disc 4 with cylindrical bodies 5.

  The other disk-shaped element 3 consists of a disk proper 8 provided with an edge 8 'and holes

  of frustoconical shape 9 transverse full thickness.

  The coupling between the two elements in disks 2 and 3 according to the combination shown in FIG. 2 allows the constitution of the complete die. More specifically, the cylindrical bodies 5 of the disk 2 are inserted into the

  frustoconical holes 9 of disk 3 on the side of the largest di-

  meters of these holes until the ribs7

  abut against the inside wall of the frustoconical holes 9.

  The role of these ribs in addition to positioning the solid bodies 5 is also to maintain the body aligned during extension, as well as to center the discs relative to each other so a combination of these two elements in the desired form. This combination, in the die according to the invention determines the formation of the interstices 10 between the respective contiguous surfaces of the bodies

cylindrical 5 and bores 9.

  This sector is applicable to a traditional machine

  for the production of different forms of pasta, using

  of a threaded ferrule acting against the edges 4 'and 8' of

  respective 2 and 3O the penetration section of the dough

  in the sector is that of the holes of the disk 2.

  After this first phase of crossing and penetrating

  In the die 3, it is channeled into the interstices 10, in which the dough fractioned in the inlet section is subjected to the presence of the ribs 7 which give the complete form of the finished product.

  For cleaning, it is easy to make the separation

  two elements 3 and 3 by pressing on the end of the

  body 5 which is'visible on the exit face of the die.

  In the example shown, the die is provided with four bores 9 and four solid bodies 5, but it is obvious that the number of these components can be varied according to

  the size of the desired products and the area of the die.
