Abstract
A forming machine for chocolate and the like which comprises, located directly downstream of the hopper, a metering device having a contoured mixing and metering cavity which accommodates a rotatively driven rotor provided with disk-like spaced-apart collars and with rotary pistons respectively in the form of bridges interconnecting said disk-like collars axially. On the interior of said mixing and metering cavity, said rotor defines, accordingly, movable metering chambers in the shape of annular segments at one side, in each whereof there is respectively reciprocable a detent segment of a respective oscillating delivery disk valve and formed on a common shaft element, and a mixing chamber at the other side. Provided in said valves is a throughgoing passage which opens below the forming machine lower plane, and a depression for the unhindered passage of the respective rotary piston.
