Claim:
A forming and cooling device for a flowable, melted food mass ( 1 ) comprising two parallel, oppositely rotating cooling belts ( 2 , 3 ), each belt having an outer surface and an inner surface and an upper region and a lower region, which are each guided over an upper ( 4 ) and a lower ( 5 ) deflection roller and are separated from each other in order to form a continuous strip ( 6 ) of the food mass, wherein the cooling belts ( 2 , 3 ) are each acted upon by a cooling fluid ( 7 ) on the inner surface facing away from the strip, characterized in that a tubular supply channel ( 8 ) is formed at the upper region of each cooling belt ( 2 , 3 ) and is equipped with a plurality of outlet conduits ( 9 ) arranged side by side, each outlet opening having a central recess which is cylindrically formed and by way of which a laminar, non-turbulent cooling-liquid stream ( 10 ) can be placed upon the inner surface of the cooling belt ( 2 , 3 ).
