Benefits of technology

[0017]Starting from this situation, one aspect underlying the present disclosure is to provide a device and a method for distributing residual air in pasty masses which can distribute the air in the pasty mass optimally homogenously, even in case of viscosity differences of the pasty mass and changes in the filling speed, without the device or a part of the device having to be exchanged.

Problems solved by technology

A higher degree of mixing also means higher pressure loss in the flow channel and thus a pressure increase in front of the device.

Embodiment Construction

[0049]FIG. 1 shows the principal construction of a filling line with a device 1 for distributing residual air in a pasty mass according to the present disclosure. Here, the filling line comprises a filling machine 2, in particular a vacuum filler, which comprises, as is schematically shown, a feed hopper 20 via which product is fed to a not represented conveyor system, for example in the form of a vane pump. Via the conveyor system, the pasty mass is fed to the device 1 downstream of the conveyor system seen in the direction of transport T, for distributing residual air. In the device 1, the pasty mass is deflected and thoroughly mixed thereby. In the process, the residual air in the pasty mass can distribute uniformly. The pasty mass is then further fed in the direction of transport T to an attachment 3. Such an attachment can comprise, for example, a metal detector 3b and an automatic clipper 3a, or it can also be embodied, for example, in the form of a filling tube. The device 1 ...

Abstract

A device and a method for distributing residual air in a pasty mass, in particular for the production of sausages, with a housing comprising a flow channel and an inlet and outlet for the pasty mass, and with a distributor means for deflecting and mixing the pasty mass thoroughly in the flow channel, where the distributor means can be adjusted such that the mixing of the pasty mass can be adjusted.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims the benefit of priority of European Application No. 10196558.0, filed Dec. 22, 2010. The entire text of the priority application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE[0002]The disclosure relates to a device and a method for distributing residual air in pasty masses, in particular for the production of sausages.BACKGROUND[0003]In the production of sausages, pasty masses are filled into sausage casings by means of filling machines. During the processing of the pasty masses, however, undesired air accumulations occur in the pasty mass.[0004]Therefore, so-called residual air distributors or nozzles have been already used in the outlet, i.e. in an area downstream of the conveyor system or else e.g. in the filling tube.[0005]A dispersion of air bubbles, however, can only be achieved in the area downstream of the conveyor system, i.e. on the pressure side, as corresponding press...
