Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for processing an edible product in the form of a viscous to pasty mass, in particular, an edible product based on a fatty mass, such as chocolate, or based on water, such as ice cream. Said device comprises dosing units (D1, D2) for the dosed supply of a specific volume of the mass to a bearing surface. Said dosing units (D1, D2) comprise, respectively, a dosing piston (4) which is mounted in a piston chamber, whereby the dosing piston (4) moves at least in a rotational manner about the piston axis thereof (A1). A first plurality of dosing units (D1) are arranged on a first plane, and a second plurality of dosing units (D2) are arranged on a second plane. The dosing piston (4) of the dosing units (D1), which are arranged on the first plane (D1), are rotationally driven by means of a first drive element (7; 16), and the dosing piston (4) of the dosing units (D2), which are arranged on the second plane, are rotationally driven by means of a second drive element (8; 16).
