Abstract
The input section of apparatus for use in the continuous production of dough of either one of two types has a blender into which the dry material for either type of dough is metered. First and second oil containers, a water container and a container for a yeast solution each have an outlet conduit in communication with the blender and provided with a precision pump and the water and the yeast solution are refrigerated. The outlet conduits of the containers have precision pumps and are arranged so that with either dry material, the appropriate liquids are delivered to the blender in the same relationship to the dry materials.
Claims8
An input section for apparatus for use in the continuous production of dough of either one of two different types and having a blender and two containers, each for the dry ingredient for a particular one of said dough types and having a motor driven metering device discharging into said blender, said input section including first and second oil containers, each for an oil appropriate for use with a particular one of said dry ingredients, a water container, and a container for a yeast solution, the water for use with one dry ingredient and the yeast solution for use with the other ingredients, thermostatically controlled means to refrigerate said water and thermostatically controlled means to refrigerate said solution, outlet conduits connectable to said blender, one for each container and in communication therewith, each conduit including a metering pump.
An input section for apparatus for use in the continuous production of dough of either one of two different types, said section including a blender, two containers, each for a dry ingredient for a particular one of said dough types and including a metering device, means to introduce either metered dry material into said blender, first and second oil containers, each for an oil appropriate for use with a particular one of said dry ingredients, a water container and a container for a yeast solution, thermostatically controlled means to refrigerate the water in said water container, thermostatically controlled means to refrigerate the yeast solution, outlet conduits, one for each container and including a metering pump, and said outlet conduits arranged in a manner such that both liquids for use with each dry ingredient are in communication with the blender in the same relationship to the means by which the appropriate dry ingredient is introduced into the blender.
