Obtained raw rice, that is, soaked rice. Next, the soaked rice is drained and drained, placed in a steaming steamer, and steamed while being sprinkled with water by a shower of the rain drip type. After that, steamed rice is taken in a colander, soaked in colander and water, further drained, and then a predetermined ingredient is supplied in a predetermined mixing ratio and mixed.

However, most of the conventional manufacturing processes are entrusted to the manual work of workers. Therefore, the workability is poor, the work efficiency is low, and a relatively large number of full-time workers are required, which causes a cost increase. Therefore, it is conceivable to improve the workability, dramatically improve the work efficiency, and reduce the cost by achieving the labor saving by performing all the above-described manufacturing processes by the automated manufacturing apparatus.

However, in the case of manufacturing packed rice with automation, unless the ingredients are automatically supplied uniformly to the steamed rice on the conveying line at a predetermined mixing ratio, the mixing ratio varies and the quality of the packed rice with rice deteriorates. I will let you. As described above, the function of automatically and uniformly supplying a predetermined mixture with a predetermined blending ratio to the objects to be conveyed on the conveying line is not limited to the mixture supplying device for supplying the ingredients to the steamed rice, and other mixture supplying devices. Is also required.
