Filed: 1998-07-22
Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for transporting a continuous web
(100), and for manipulating the web, wherein the apparatus comprises a
plurality of means for forming web loops (101), each means for forming web
loops being positioned between adjacent web support plates (20), each web
support plate having an outer web support surface (22), wherein each of the
web support surfaces lies in an arc, the arcs lying around the circumference
of a circular path, and wherein the web support surfaces and means for
forming web loops are rotatably mounted about the axis (25) of the circular
path. 
     The invention also relates to a process for transporting a continuous web
(100) around an apparatus (10) whereby the distance between adjacent web
support plates (20) is greater than a minimum distance, and wherein the web
is transported around the circular path so that a web loop (101) is formed
when the distance between adjacent web support plates (20) decreases
towards the minimum distance.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for continuously tempering, a fat-containing, chocolate-like
mass. The mass as subjected to a primary cooling (C1), a subsequent secondary
cooling (C2) creating stable crystals in the mass, and a final reheating (H). 
     The temperature of cooling medium performing the primary cooling (C1) is controlled
to be higher than the temperature of cooling medium performing the secondary
cooling (C2) for any values of those temperatures. This could be effected by
measuring the temperature of the cooling medium performing the secondary cooling
continuously, and regulating the temperature of the cooling medium entering the
primary section (C2) to be higher by electronic means such as a computer. It could
also be effected by connecting the outlet 11 of the secondary section (C2) with the
inlet (12) of the primary section (C1). 
     Surprisingly, the amount of stable crystals in the tempered mass is kept at a required,
constant portion as creation of crystals is excluded in the primary section
(C1), and therefore is limited to the secondary section (C2) in which it may be readily
controlled.
