Title:
APPARATUS FOR MIXING POWDERY MATERIAL WITH LIQUID MATERIAL AND METHOD OF PRODUCING MIXTURE BY USING THE MIXING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/015756
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A powdery material is fed at a definite rate to the center of a disc, which is rotating at a moderate speed, to form a thin powder layer close to the periphery of the disc. On the other hand, a sprayer rotating at thigh speed is provided on the same axis as the rotating disc and a liquid material, which is fed at a definite rate, is continuously sprayed and radiated thereby. Thus, the liquid material is sprayed at a high speed from behind to the powder layer flow having been spread on the rotating disk. As a result, a homogeneous and instantaneous bond is continuously formed at the micro level between these materials so that a homogeneous mixture of the powdery material with the liquid material can be continuously obtained. By homogeneously mixing the powdery material with the liquid material from the beginning, agitation becomes unnecessary, which makes it possible to prevent the mixture from denaturation in the qualities thereof. Moreover, it becomes possible to remarkably shorten the process and simplify the apparatus. In the case of using in mixing a powder material mainly comprising wheat flour with a liquid material mainly comprising water, in particular, the apparatus or the method as described above makes it possible to produce bread or noodles with excellent qualities by a shortened and simplified process.
