METHOD AND DEVICE FOR BEATEN CONFECTIONERY MASSES PRODUCTION Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A23G1/00 A23G3/02 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: beaten chocolate or filling mass production method envisages providing for an aeration device containing a rotor and a stator, and unprocessed mass delivery at a rate of delivery from this mass source into the aeration device. Then one adds a gas into the chocolate or filling mass into the space between the stator and the rotor of the aeration device. The beaten mass is delivered into the product line for confectionary product production. The rate of unprocessed chocolate or filling mass is regulated in compliance with the product line requirement. The quantity of added gas is regulated in compliance with the rate of the mass delivery in such a way that the degree of aeration is constant. The mass temperature is regulated inside the aeration device in such a way that the said mass is stable independently of its delivery rate. The rotor rotation rate is regulated in such a way that it is increased at increased rates of delivery and reduced at reduced rate of delivery for production of gas bubbles of identical size independent of the delivery rate.

EFFECT: invention allows to perform uninterrupted aeration without necessity to return part of the unprocessed mass into the aeration device.
