  • the invention relates to an apparatus and method for dosing flat products, such as potato chips.
  • Flat products of the food industry, in particular potato chips, are usually offered on the market in elongated cans made of specially coated cardboard.
  • the automatic dosing and packaging of such often fragile products presents a particular challenge.
  • DE 60111233 T2 describes a dosing system for biscuits by means of volumetric dosing of a scaly product bead, wherein a predetermined length is divided from the product bead by means of simple belt conveyors and a barrier system consisting of separating sliders and be supplied via a further belt conveyor and the separating slide a designated container.
  • a disadvantage of previous dosing is that a dosage of very flat products such as non-flat potato chips convected size, which are shallow but not regular and not flat, can be very inaccurate, since the mass of the chips itself is subject to tolerance, the mass of the Chips may vary by up to 2%, for example from 1.89 to 1.92 g.
  • Simple holometric methods are too imprecise here, since a mere counting of the individual potato chips can lead to a product bead, which is too long for the intended container or can also result in a shortage.

  • the weighing device has a weighing conveyor and an electrical load cell. Furthermore, it is provided that the optical scanning device is formed above the weighing device as a photodiode or CCD camera for counting individual potato chips, so that the predetermined weight for the container can be reached.

In case of malfunctions in the area of the packaging unit, in a particularly preferred embodiment, it should be provided that between the weighing device and the transport channel a first discharge station and between
  • a second Ausschleuse- station is designed to ensure a discharge of products.
  • the first and the second discharge station have a fold-down flap which can be folded down vertically and a discharge chute for exporting the products in the event of malfunctions.

Furthermore, the individual products coming from the roaster are fed to a weighing device via a conveyor trough, which is vibrated by a vibrator. In the end of the weighing device a stopper is provided which retains the incoming products while on the weighing device until the ge ⁇ wish weighing of products is reached. The products are stopped by the stopper and shaved. The weighing device uses a weighing cell to weigh the weight of the products. Above the
