Abstract
A direct fired fryer includes a combustion chamber heated by burner means and heats a vat of cooking oil through a partition wall as well as through a network of heat conducting tubes arranged in the vat and communicating with the combustion chamber. A wiper conveyor sweeps fines from the bottom of the vat to a sump for discharge outside of the conveyor and also cleans the upper surfaces of the heat conducting tubes to minimize the carbonaceous burnoff.
