Claims4
A pasteurizing machine comprising lowermost, uppermost and intermediate water containers placed superposed to one another, the water being heated in the lowermost container and being pumped to the uppermost container, the uppermost container having a bottom surface provided with apertures to permit the water to drip into the intermediate container in which a conveyor belt travels, and means being provided for adjusting the level of the water relative to the level of the conveyor belt traveling through the intermediate container.
A pasteurizing system for pasteurizing products which are lighter than water, comprising three superposed water containers including an upper container, an intermediate container and a bottom container, means for pumping water from the lower container to the upper container, a conveyor belt for carrying the products through the intermediate container with upper portions thereof exposed above the level of the water in the intermediate container, and means for discharging water from the intermediate container into the lower container while maintaining the level of water in the intermediate container at a level such that products carried by the conveyor belt will be at least partly submerged as they are carried by the conveyor belt through the intermediate container, and wherein the upper conveyor has a bottom surface provided with apertures to permit water to drip onto the exposed upper portions of the products being carried by the conveyor belt and into the intermediate container.
