ABSTRACT:
Novel apparatus for liquid treatment of units of a product such as blocks of cheese wherein the units are floated in a flowing stream of the treatment liquid and are conveyed by the treating liquid from an inlet of the tank to an outlet of the tank. For some embodiments, a minimum turning radius is defined. Also, for some embodiments, the tank comprises a pair of first and second side-by-side conveying channel members converging from an outer perimeter defined by an outermost loop to an innermost loop defined by innermost portions of the pair of channel members and wherein portions of the first and second conveying channel members of the innermost loop are separated from side-by-side relationship over a portion of the innermost loop, and join to each other as in end-to-end relationship, such that liquid entering the innermost loop through one of the first and second conveying channel members leaves the innermost loop through the other of the first and second conveying channel members.
