ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for intermittently dispensing either fragile particulate material, such as sesame seeds, or flaky material, such as bran, through openings in a tube to spread material over an array of spaced rows and columns of a food product in a pan. The dispensing apparatus comprises a hopper from which fragile particulate material is dispensed through a dispensing tube in which a mandrel driven by a reversible variable speed motor is rotatably disposed. The mandrel has spaced spline teeth formed on its outer surface in dispensing sections separated by blocking collars spaced longitudinally of the mandrel such that rotation of the mandrel causes particulate material to be dispensed in parallel columns and such that intermittent rotation of the mandrel causes the columns to be divided to form rows. An outlet passage in the dispensing tube is shaped and positioned to expedite dispensing granular material when the mandrel is rotated in one direction and to dispense flaky material when the mandrel is rotated in the opposite direction. A dispensing chute is formed adjacent the outlet passage to spread material dispensed uniformly over the surface of a food product.
