Reiskorn-Befeuchtungsvorrichtung.

摘要

In an apparatus for humidifying rice grains, a humidifying vessel has defined therewithin a substantially closed space and has a rice supply port and a rice discharge port. Rice grains are supplied into the humidifying vessel through the supply port, while gas is substantially prevented from escaping from the space within the humidifying vessel through the supply port. Rice grains are discharged from the humidifying vessel through the discharge port, while the gas is substantially prevented from escaping from the space within the humidifying vessel through the discharge port. Gas is forcibly delivered into the humidifying vessel to pressurize the space therewithin. Moisture is added to the rice grains within the pressurized space within the humidifying vessel. The moisture is added to the rice grains within the substantially closed space and, simultaneously, the moisture added to each rice grain is penetrated into an interior of the rice grain under pressure.
