Abstract

DC60 (28/06/54) Machines and methods for processing products by refrigeration or Freezing includes a conveyor for conveying products along the plane of motion. The raised trajectory is arranged for intermittent contact with the conveyor during operation of the rotatable cam track method for contact with and the lifting trajectory for Contact with and moving the conveyor from the plane of motion Which makes the product on The conveyor moves to prevent the product from sticking to the conveyor and to other products. And the driving route correlated to work with the cam track for the Rotational motion for contact with and intermittent lifting trajectory, machines and methods for processing the product by cooling or Freezing includes a conveyor for conveying products along the plane of motion. The raised trajectory is arranged for intermittent contact with the conveyor during operation of the rotatable cam track method for contact with and the lifting trajectory for Contact with and displacement from the plane of motion, which causes the product on The conveyor moves to prevent the product from sticking to the conveyor and to other products. And driving trajectory that work correlates with cam trajectory to make cam trajectory Rotational motion for intermittent contact with and moving the lift trajectory.

Claims (9)

1. Apparatus for conveying products to be chilled or frozen, without adhering to the machine or other products, comprising: a conveyor for conveying the products along a path of movement through the cooling medium for cooling or freezing the products; lifting bars arranged under and close to the conveyor to contact the conveyor at selective intervals to move the conveyor from its plane of movement, thus moving the product on the conveyor to prevent the product from sticking to the conveyor or to other products; a wave-generating assembly suited for rotation and having cam arrangements for rotating transversely with respect to the path of movement for moving the lifting bars laterally with respect to the path; a support surface on the lifting bars that is freely coupled to the cam arrangements for moving the lifting bars to contact and move the conveyor from its plane of movement; and a drive path made functionally related to the wave-generating assembly for rotation, cam arrangements for periodic movement of the lifting bars. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the cam assembly comprises a wave-generating shaft having a plurality of cams arranged in a staggered pattern around the circumference and along the length of the wave-generating shaft. 3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the wave-generating assembly arranged on one side of the transmitter is such that the handle is opposite to the wave-generating assembly arranged on the opposite side of the transmitter. 4. The device according to claim 3, wherein each cam on the wave-making shaft comprises a lifting flange. 5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the receiving surface includes a lifting bar projection. 6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the lifting bar extension is connected to and is arranged beneath the lifting bar extension. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the lifting bar extension is suitably constructed for movement through a range of motion to determine the range of motion for the lifting bar extension and the lifting bar. 8. The machine according to claim 1, wherein the driving means comprises a motor. 9. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the lifting bar is suitably constructed to be positioned away from and not in contact with the conveyor for uninterrupted movement of the conveyor along the plane of motion; the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the conveyor comprises at least one wavy section and at least one non-wavy section according to claim 1, wherein the product is a food product; the apparatus for conveying the food product to be processed comprises a conveyor means to convey the food product along the line of motion for the processing; the lifting means are functionally coordinated with the bias path for vertical movement of the bias path from the path of motion at a selected range from side to side of a uniform width of the bias path; the cam means suitably constructed for rotating transversely to contact and applying a lifting force to the lift means at a lateral side relative to the path and at a selected interval so as to provide a wavy up-and-down motion to the conveyance path at the selected interval, and the driving means connected to the cam means to transmit the driving force to the cam means for the rotation of the cam means, one apparatus of claim 12, wherein the lifting means comprises at least one longitudinal member having a receiving surface, and the cam means comprises at least one shaft assembly having at least one projection extending from that shaft assembly for contacting the surface periodically at a selected interval, one apparatus of claim 12, wherein the cam means comprises a first shaft assembly disposed on one side of the conveyance means and a plurality of projections extending from that shaft assembly in a staggered arrangement along the length of the first shaft assembly, and a second shaft assembly disposed on a second side of the bias path at the Opposite to the first side and having a second plurality of projections extending from the shaft assembly, in a staggered arrangement along the length of the second shaft assembly, whereby the first and second plurality of projections work together with the lifting means at selected intervals to move the lifting means to cause the conveyor to undergo an undulating upward and downward motion. A method for processing food products, comprising: transporting the processed product on a conveyor, supporting the stacker along a path of travel, rotating the undulating means comprising cam paths aligned to rotate transversely with respect to the path of travel and positioned laterally relative to the path of travel proximal to the lifting means, periodically bringing the lifting means into contact with the conveyor for moving the supported stacker and the product along at least part of the path of travel to prevent the product from sticking to the conveyor and other food products on the conveyor during processing. One apparatus of claim 15, wherein the supported tilting means comprises Further, one vibratory motion of the conveyor according to claim 16, further comprising one vibratory motion of the conveyor according to claim 16, further comprising one vibratory motion of the amplitude and frequency of the vibratory motion of claim 15, wherein the processing comprises two vibratory motions of the food product according to claim 17, wherein the cooling comprises by exposing the food product to a cryogenic substance.
