A method and apparatus for discharging a food material is provided, in which a plurality of supply rollers provided with grooves or ridges on their surfaces are circularly disposed to form a funnel-shaped space, into which space the food material is charged. The food material is subjected to a circumferential force by the rotating supply rollers and is steadily fed downward, without slipping. Further, an apparatus for discharging a food material is provided, in which a supply pipe with a scraper is disposed under a food-material-supply section. The scraper is positioned adjacent the inner wall of the supply pipe or positioned such that the scraper slidably contacts the inner wall of the supply pipe, to thereby peel off the food material adhering to the inner wall, so as to stably feed the food material downward.
A method of discharging a food material comprising circularly disposing a plurality of supply rollers to form a funnel-shaped space to receive said food material, providing grooves or ridges on the surface of each supply roller to enhance the frictional engagement of said supply rollers with said food material, and charging said food material into said funnel-shaped space, and rotating said supply rollers so as to move said food material and to feed it downward, characterized by:
An apparatus for discharging a food material comprising a food-material-supply section which supplies a food material downward, said food-material-supply section comprising a plurality of rotatable supply rollers for supplying a food material downward, said supply rollers being circularly disposed so that they form a funnel-shaped space to receive said food material, the surface of each supply roller being provided with grooves or ridges, characterized by:
An apparatus for discharging a food material comprising a food-material-supply section that supplies a food material downward, said food-material-supply section comprising a plurality of rotatable supply rollers for supplying a food material downward, said supply rollers being circularly disposed so that they form a funnel-shaped space to receive said food material, characterized by
