Device for preparing a flowable batter and dosage unit

摘要

In a device for preparing a flowable batter, in particular batter intended for use as coating material in the food industry, a dosage unit (30) is used for the accurate dosage of particulate starting material. The dosage unit (30) comprises a storage vessel (32) for particulate starting material, the bottom (34) of which vessel is provided with a bottom outlet opening (44). Above the bottom there is a rotatable dosage element (38) which is provided with dosage segments (48) which are open on the top side (51) and the underside (52). A cover plate (60), which covers the bottom outlet opening (44), is arranged at a fixed position above the dosage element (38).
