Abstract

See full text

An apparatus (1) for coating edible products with a fat-containing coating mass includes a frame (3) including a plurality of spaced apart columns (4). The columns (4) are located in an outer portion of the apparatus (1), and they are approximately vertical. A grating belt (15) serves to transport the products placed thereon though the apparatus (1) in a working direction (2). A coating unit (10) directs the coating mass onto the products as they are transported on the grating belt (15) though the apparatus (1). A tub unit (6) includes a tub (7). The length (34) of the tub (7) in the working direction (2) is chosen such that essentially all surplus coating mass dripping down from the grating belt (15) is collected in the tub (7). The height (29) of the tub (7) is chosen such that the tub (7) fits below the grating belt (15). The tub (7) and the columns (4) are designed and arranged such that a distance (35) between the columns in the working direction (2) is greater than the length (34) of the tub (7) such that the tub (7) can be completely removed from the apparatus (1) in a lateral direction perpendicular to the working direction (2).
