A process of inserting a stick into a meat patty, which is formed in a food product forming apparatus. The process includes inserting the stick at least partially into the meat patty while a drum of the food product forming apparatus rotates and the stick is moved for insertion into the meat patty by an insertion unit. While the stick is inserted into at least one cavity in one of the rows of cavities, another at least one cavity in another one of the rows of cavities is simultaneously filled with the meat patty. The step of inserting the stick takes place during a co-rotational movement of the drum and the insertion unit, while the drum rotates from a filling position to a discharge position.

3D-food product forming apparatus and process

The present invention is related to a food forming apparatus to produce patties with a form member which comprises molds in which the patties are formed, whereas the form member is located adjacent to a pressure member and is at least partially made from a porous material.

A device for introducing a liquid, such as brine, into an animal product, such as meat, ham and the like, comprises a mounting member on which the product can be arranged and a holder at some distance from the mounting member. The holder bears hollow needles oriented transversely with respect to the mounting member and can move to and fro transversely to the mounting member for inserting the needles into the product or, alternatively, for extracting the needles from the product. Said needles have at least one discharge orifice near their free end and one feed orifice at some distance from said free end and are accommodated in the holder such that they can be displaced in the longitudinal direction between a position projecting relatively far out of the holder, in which the feed orifices are blocked, and a position projecting relatively less far out of the holder, in which the feed orifices have a flow connection to a liquid supply. In addition, locking means are provided for locking the needles in their position projecting relatively less far out of the holder.
