AUTOMATIC TABLE-TOP MACHINE FOR KNEADING AND EXTRUDING PASTA

摘要

A machine for kneading and extruding pasta, having a machine body, which includes electric gear motor having an output shaft with horizontal axis, a transmission from the output shaft to a driven shaft with a horizontal axis and parallel to the axis of the output shaft and coaxial to a shaft of a kneading reel, projecting externally to the machine body in a dough forming tank, having below and parallel to the shaft of the kneading reel an extrusion channel, in which a worm screw feeds an extrusion mass for forming pasta. The tank is a hopper, having two lateral walls, opposite and converging at the bottom into the extrusion channel, and two opposite vertical walls, front and rear. The rear wall of the tank is juxtaposed against a vertical wall of the machine body as a stiffening frame, having an upper horizontal cross-member, which forms a top edge of the tank, and a pair of “V-shaped” branches that form respective edges of the opposite lateral walls and of the channel of the tank. The stiffening frame is extends beyond the tank and provides an outer flange fixed relative to the tank. The tank is fixed with respect to the machine body by a detachable connection and is cantilevered relative to the vertical wall of the load-bearing frame. The detachable connection connects the outer flange with respect to the vertical wall of the load-bearing frame.

主权项

1. An automatic table-top machine for kneading and extruding pasta, comprising a machine body, which includes electric gear motor means having an output shaft with horizontal axis, transmission means from said output shaft to a driven shaft with axis horizontal and parallel to the axis of said output shaft and coaxial to a shaft of a kneading reel, projecting externally to said machine body in a dough forming tank, having below and parallel to said shaft of the kneading reel an extrusion channel, in which there is arranged a worm screw coaxial with respect to said output shaft, which feeds in the manner of an auger extrusion means for forming pasta, wherein said tank is substantially structured in the manner of a hopper, having two sloping lateral walls, opposite and converging at the bottom in said extrusion channel, and two substantially vertical opposite walls, front and rear;
in that said rear wall of said tank is juxtaposed against a vertical wall of said machine body and is structured as an essentially triangular stiffening frame, comprising an upper horizontal cross-member, which forms a top edge of said tank, and a pair of essentially “V-shaped” branches that form respective edges of said opposite lateral walls and of said channel of said tank; in that said peripheral frame extends beyond said tank and provides an outer flange fixed with respect to said tank; in that said tank is fixed with respect to said machine body through detachable connection means and is supported in a cantilever fashion with respect to said vertical wall of said load-bearing frame; and in that said detachable connection means connect said outer flange with respect to said vertical wall of said load-bearing frame.
