Claim 0:
1. A multi-row dough-portioning apparatus
having a chamber housing (6a),
having a number of portioning chambers (5) for predetermining a portioned quantity of dough,
having a number of measuring pistons (8), which can each be displaced in the portioning chambers (5) along a displacement direction (23)
between a retracted, measuring position, in which the respective measuring piston (8) in the respective portioning chamber (5) predetermines a predetermined portioning volume,
and a pushed-out, ejecting position,

having a rotation-prevention bar (18), which is installed in a releasable manner on a rear housing wall (19) of the chamber housing (6a) and interacts with a circumferential recess (20) in the measuring pistons (8) in order to prevent rotation of the measuring pistons (8),
wherein the chamber housing (6a) has a projecting section (21), which projects beyond the rear housing wall (19),
wherein the rotation-prevention bar (18) is installed on the chamber housing (6a) such that, upon release, it can be removed from the chamber housing (6a) in a removal direction (22) perpendicular to the displacement direction (23) of the measuring pistons (8), and
wherein the rotation-prevention bar (18) is installed on the chamber housing (6a) via at least one locking unit (24) which can be actuated without any tools being required.
