SYSTEM, METHOD AND DEVICE FOR FOOD PRODUCTS TREATMENT Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A22C11/08 A22C11/00 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: Invention is intended for usage in food industry, in particular, for treatment of food products having an elongated configuration and enclosed in an edible external casing, for example - those containing a chopped meat filler . The food product treatment system contains a cooking and a cooling devices that are similar to each other and configured for preparation of Vienna sausages that have fragile and easy-tearing casings. The cooking device contains a treatment reservoir containing cooking fluid, a charging tray, a guiding means in the form of nozzles, a helical conveyor and a discharging conveyor. Vienna sausages are delivered into the reservoir through the charging tray. The nozzles direct the sausages into optimal positions relative to the helical conveyor that transports the sausages into the discharging conveyor. The nozzles also separate sausages to prevent their agglomeration during charging into the reservoir and ensure parallel positioning of sausages and transportation in a direction parallel to the helical conveyor rotation axis which reduced impact forces applied to sausages by means of the conveyor. In the cooling device the reservoir contains cooling liquid.

EFFECT: method improvement.
