ABSTRACT:
A multiple mode deep fat food frying machine has a deep fat cooker, a hopper with structure for dropping food into the deep fat, and a multiple mode control for the food dropping structure; the control has a rotary cam with inner apertures and an outer periphery with a detent having a root at a greater radius than the aperature, a first photo-optical sensor picks up the apertures and a second photo optical sensor picks up the detent, a selector sends the signals from only one or the other sensor to the food dropping structure, the cam is mounted on a drive for a device to remove food from the fat. A method of controlling a fat fryer has the steps of rotating a cam, optically sensing the apertures, optically sensing the detent, and direction one of the sensing to control food drop; this apparatus and method are paticularily suited for a hot and greasy environment.
