Description

BASIC Auth. St. 91461 describes a device for determining the swellability of bagels, hooors on the similar ones, made in the form of a cylindrical water bath with a removable lid, in which a press plate, cut into several parts, is mounted on a base of 1 rods, and each part of the slab on the rod hangers are shelves for the tested products.

The device is designed to determine the amount of pressing of the bakery and confectionery industry swollen in water under the action of a constant load.

However, the analysis is hampered by the displacement of the tested products placed in the device, which occurs under the influence of water currents. St. No. 91461 to prevent: N the displacement of the test samples of the water bath divided by perforated partitions into separate sectors according to the number of parts of the press plate with hangers.

In the drawing, image I proposed the device (general view), in FIG. 2 is a section along AA “and FIG. one; FIG. 3 shows a section along the BB in FIG. one.

The device is designed as a cylindrical water bath / with a removable lid 2. The water is poured into the bath and is protected from cooling by the casing 3. The gap between the walls of the bath and the casing is filled with thermal insulation material 4.

On the cover 2 there are four guide bushings 5 in which the rods 6 move upwards and the viz. The rods 6 are moved to the ends of the rods and a removable press plate 7 is cut into pieces.

Under each of the four parts of the removable press plate on the pendants 8, self-contained shelves 9 for the tested products are attached. The displacement of products is prevented by the fact that the water in the bath / perforated partitions 10 is divided into separate sectors // according to the number of parts of the press plate 7.

Each part of the press plate 7 can be placed in a bath /

L o 96532-2, in the required position, is an upper or lower position, fixed by limiters 12, and secured with locking screws / 5.

The press plate 7 is taken out of the bath / is carried out by raising the cover 2, connecting the bracket 14 with the clamping device, consisting of the direction of the sleeve, the sleeve and the stop screw with the handle 15. A rack 16 is passed through the hole of the guide sleeve the cover 2 can be progressively moved up and down (the required position is fixed by a locking screw with a handle / 5).

A round plate 17 is connected to the stand 16, resting on one fixed screw 18 and on two adjustable set screws 19. The device is installed in a horizontal position on level 20. The bath installation / on the round plate 17 coincides with the axis of the press plate 7 is achieved by installing a bath / fixed limiting device 21.

Each part of the removable press plate 7, together with the shelf 9, is fixed to the rod 6 by means of the head 22. After determining swelling in one product, the press plate 7 is removed for washing, and the other plate 7 with the products to be leaked-in is inserted into the device.

On each rod 6, a removable load 25 is placed on top. When lowering (under the influence of load 23) press plate 7 to the bottom of the bath 1, the lower ends of the suspensions 8. slide into the bottom of the bath, and the plate 7 continues to descend until the surface of the plate 7 completely touches the shelf 9.

When the shelf 9 and plate 7 of the sodden articles are in the gap, their plastic mass, under the influence of load 23 and press plate 7, spreads out, depending on the variant of the working bodies, either on the sides or on the sides and downwards if there are holes in the shelf 9; or on the sides, up and down - if there are holes in the press plate 7 and shelf 9, or another distance between the shelf 9 and plate 7 is fixed on a scale of 24 and can be set from 0 mm to another initial position required by the conditions of the analysis . The desired position with a predetermined gap between the plate 7 and the shelf 9 is set by haPK 25 with a pointer on a scale of 24.

The temperature of the water in the bath / is recorded by a thermometer 26.

Determination of swelling capacity of bagels, bread crumbs and the like from the proposed instrument is performed as follows.

The device is installed at a level of 20-Caps 2 and is lifted upwards and, together with a removable press plate, is fixed with a locking screw with a handle 15. Water is poured into the bath, heated by several degrees above the required temperature.

Press the plate 7 with the shelves 9 is immersed in water for heating. If a reduction in the temperature of the water is required, the bath is left for some time open.

Then the cover 2 is lifted upwards and the products broken into pieces are laid on the shelves 9. After loading the products in the bath 1, close the lid 2 until it stops and set the press plate 7 in the upper position.

In this position, the products undergo swelling. The beginning and end of the swelling is marked with a stopwatch or an hourglass. After an experimentally set period of time, squeeze the locking screws 13 and lower the press plate 7 to the lower position, fixed by the contact of the bottom of the bath with the legs of the shelves 9.
