Abstract
A potato chip manufacturing machine comprising a frame, an elongated oil cooking kettle mounted on the frame, and an oil circulation circuit connected to the oil for causing flow of cooking oil in a longitudinal direction through the cooking kettle. Flow retarding paddles are horizontally mounted in a transverse direction over the oil in the kettle and are adapted to retard the flow of potato slices longitudinally in the kettle. A powered conveyor device is mounted on one end of the kettle to remove cooked potato slices from the oil. A potato slicing means is pivotally mounted on one end of the frame. The potato slicing means, the paddle and the conveyor are powered by variable speed motors. Either a gas or electrical heat means is provided over the kettle to heat the oil therein. Elongated, spaced apart heat exchanger bars are located on the bottom of the kettle. The vanes of the retarding paddles are sand blasted and bent slightly to prevent adhesion by potato slices. A potato washing device is mounted on the frame adjacent the potato slicing means.
