| 20090123586 | Shaping Device for Producing Goods from a Material Strand - A device for shaping products from a material strand comprising two eccentrically circulating separation rings each having cavities and separation ribs. The separation ribs which, during rotation, are moved together to separate individual pieces of the material strand. A rotating stamping chamber ring is provided with open stamping chambers and a pair of stamping dies are sides thereof displaceable into each stamping chamber, one from each side. The stamping dies are driven by a control unit, respectively along a curved path along which the stamping dies are displaceable, when a guiding element defining the curved paths runs about an axis. The dies are fixed to each other in such a way that, during one revolution, stamping of an individual piece begins in a peripheral angle area approximately ranging from 12° to 15° prior to a point of minimum distance between the stamping dies and ends in a peripheral angle area approximately ranging from 0° to 5° after said point of minimum distance between the stamping dies. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20100239699 | Molding Apparatus and Related Methods - The invention relates to molding systems and related methods. In one aspect of the invention, a molding apparatus includes a first cylindrical roll that is rotatably coupled to a frame and an adjacent pressure device, the frame is configured so that a substrate can pass through a nip formed between the first cylindrical roll and the pressure device while a portion of the substrate extends laterally beyond at least the frame and the first cylindrical roll. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20110014312 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FORMING CONTOURED EDIBLE PIECES - A method for forming thin edible pieces uses two continuous belts that cooperate to form a fill cavity. An edible mass, such as chocolate, is flowed into the fill cavity where it forms an edible blank which is transported on a belt path with the two belts moving in tandem. After the edible blank is released from the first or second continuous belt, a three-dimensional shape may be imparted to the edible blank at a forming station using one or more stamping dies or a forming drum. Using the techniques and apparatus described herein, novel edible products, and particularly novel chocolate products, can be made having shape characteristics that cannot be obtained using known molding or forming techniques. | 01-20-2011 |
