ABSTRACT:
An ice cream making and packaging machine is provided having an automatic overrun controller for controlling the amount of air mixed with the ice cream mix prior to freezing. The overrun controller includes a mix pump and a regulator for adjusting the amount of air to be mixed with the ice cream mix in the mix pump. The ice cream making and packaging machine continuously packages predetermined quantities of ice cream in containers and includes a conveyor system for continuously carrying the containers of ice cream through a weighing station. Measuring equipment associated with the conveyor measures the relative amounts of air and ice cream mix in the containers of ice cream. Automatic controls connected to the measuring equipment adjust the regulator for the mix pump to change the amount of air mixed with the ice cream mix in response to measurements taken by the measuring equipment. The automatic overrun controller assures that the relative amounts of air and ice cream mix in the containers of ice cream will be within a predetermined range. Also a method of operating such a system to provide the desired automatic control of overrun in the manufacture of ice cream.
