Abstract
A device for coating food articles with a fat-containing substance has a circulating endless mesh belt having an upper belt portion for transporting the foodstuff articles in a transport direction and a lower return belt portion. A shaking device is positioned underneath the upper belt portion downstream in the transport direction of an area where the foodstuff articles are coated. The shaking device has transverse stays positioned transversely to the transport direction. The transverse stays can be reciprocated vertically with a shaking amplitude against the upper belt portion. The transverse stays are supported individually and can be reciprocated individually in a reciprocating direction.
