PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate control of the compression density, form and size of food materials, the control of tension of the supplying belt and the exchange of attachment and detachment. SOLUTION: This mechanism is provided with material supplying belts 15 and 16 arranged in two lines under a hopper 2, with which food materials are thrown in, so as to gradually narrow the interval of counter faces from the upside to the downside and freely exchangeable guide rollers 17 and 18 arranged at a prescribed interval under the supplying belts 15 and 16. Further, belt guides 9 and 10 are arranged inside the counter parts of supplying belts 15 and 16, and tension rollers 11 and 12 fitted to the top ends of swing arms 21 and 22 are arranged inside the back parts of supplying belts 15 and 16. Besides, operating levers 29 and 30 for attaching/detaching the supplying belts are pivotally attached above the rear parts of belt guides 9 and 10 so as to freely swing their upper ends back and forth, and screw rods 25 and 26 for controlling the tension of supplying belts 15 and 16 are respectively linked so that their upper ends can be freely vertically screwed to the operating belts 29 and 30 and their lower ends can be freely turned to the swing arms 21 and 22. |
