Claim 7:
8. A dough-processing installation having a 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 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),
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, and
wherein the locking unit (24) has a housing-mounted bolt (25), which engages in a recess (26) in the rotation-prevention bar (18).
