ROLLER Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A23G1/12 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: disclosed is roll mechanism roller for production of chocolate with roller external cylindrical housing (2) and roller housing temperature maintaining device by means of heat carrier (4). Roller has, at least, one heat carrier draining device, located in roller housing (2) end wall (3), for heat carrier (4) discharge from roller (1), at least, one heat carrier (4) supply device located in roller housing (2) end wall (3), to supply heat carrier (4) into roller (1), at least one tube (6, 106) for spraying by, at least, one nozzle (7). Through nozzle heat carrier (4) is sprayed opposite to roller housing (2) inner wall (8). At that, heat carrier draining device is connected with, at least one sleeve (9, 109), included into roller cylindrical housing (2). At that, angle (14) formed between sleeve (9, 109) end (10, 110), remote from heat carrier discharge device, and roller cylindrical housing (2) axis (15) may be varied to adjust level of roller housing filling with heat carrier. Roller (1) has air supply device (16) to create excess pressure inside roller.

EFFECT: such design allows to reduce heat carrier consumption and accordingly reduce roller weight in operation, which increases service life.
