Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a device used in the food industry for injecting liquids into food objects. Background technique
[0002] EP0297592B1 discloses an apparatus for injecting brine, marinade or another liquid into a piece of food through sets of hollow needles which are inserted into parts of the food piece. Depending on the estimated liquid absorption characteristics of the portions of the food mass, different amounts of liquid are injected through the needle set in order to obtain a substantially uniform saline or liquid distribution in the food mass. Pressurized liquid may be supplied to each needle set from a common source through a liquid valve, and the amount of liquid injected into each portion of the food block may then be controlled by adjusting the valve to control the pressure of the liquid supplied to said needle set. This adjustment can be controlled by electronic control equipment including a microprocessor.
