Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a food powder adhesion device, and in particular to a novel device for adhering bread crumbs, Japanese flour, etc. to hamburgers and fried foods.

There are various types of devices that have been used in the past, but
A typical method, as shown in Figure 1, is to introduce the food into the powder while it is being mechanically stirred, to make it stick to the food, and to scoop it up with a net. .

However, in such a conventional device, the guide section A, the take-out section B, and the stirring section C are required in the horizontal direction, which increases the size of the device itself, and furthermore, the stirring section does not mechanically handle the powder. Because of the adhesion, the shape of the food was easily distorted, resulting in poor yields.

The object of the present invention is to provide suitable means for quickly eliminating the above-mentioned drawbacks.

Hereinafter, the food powder application device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, what is indicated by the reference numeral 1 is a box-shaped casing, and the lower part of this casing is an air control plate having a large number of pores. 2 is provided, and an air supply device 3 is provided below the air control board 2.

Inside the casing 1 in the upper part of the air control plate 2, an endless guide member 5 having a large number of holders 4 spaced apart from each other at regular intervals is connected to a strut (not shown) via two rollers 6.7. It is rotatably provided in an endless manner.

A net-shaped receiving member 8 is provided at the lower part of the guide member 5 along the outer periphery of the guide member. 7, the guide member 5 is configured to rotate endlessly.

In the above configuration, to explain the case where powder is applied to food using the food powder application device according to the present invention, a large amount of powder (for example, bread crumbs) is placed on the air control plate, and the air supply device When activated, air is forced upward through each pore and the powder on the air control plate is lifted up so that it is suspended within the casing.

Next, actuate the drive unit to rotate the guide member in the direction of arrow A, and when food is placed on each holder provided on the guide member, the food will pass through the suspended powder and the food will be evenly covered with powder. can be attached.

Furthermore, if this device is equipped with a feeding section and a taking out section,
Can be operated by one operator.

Since the powder application device according to the present invention has the above-described structure and function, it is possible to easily apply powder using a small-sized device without changing the shape of the food.

In this example, the receiving member is a fixed type, but if a soft material is used, it can be made into a loop type endless belt and moved at the same speed as the guide member to prevent powder from adhering while maintaining its shape perfectly. can be done.

Furthermore, not limited to this embodiment, when the holding body is made into a mesh cage shape as shown in Fig. 3, and when a vibrating body X is provided on the guide member as shown in Fig. 4, the whole is vibrated and rotated S. The effect can be further enhanced if the holder itself is vibrated by providing a vibrating body Y in a part of the air control board as shown in Fig. 5, or if the holder is curved in the corrugated part as shown in Fig. 6. be able to.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

Fig. 1 is a plan view showing a conventional food powder application device, Fig. 2 is a side configuration diagram showing a food powder application device according to the present invention, and Fig. 3 shows another embodiment of the receiving member. Side views and FIGS. 4 to 7 show other embodiments. 1 is a casing, 2 is an air control board, 3 is an air supply device,
4 is a holding body, 5 is a guide member, and 8 is a receiving member.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. A casing that is generally box-shaped as a whole, an endless guide member provided within the casing and rotatable by at least a pair of rotating rollers, and a number of holders provided outside the guide member. and a drive unit provided in the casing for rotating the guide member;
An air control plate provided at a lower position of the casing and arranged at a lower position than the guide member, a large number of pores formed in this air control plate, and an air control plate provided at a lower part of the air control plate. A powder impregnation for food, comprising a supply device, and configured to suspend the powder on the air control board with the air supplied from the air supply device so that the powder adheres to the food on the holder. Device.
