Patent

CA 2360574

An edible product in accordance with the present invention involves an edible inner component made from a first material and an edible outer cover component substantially completely encapsulating the edible inner component. In one form of the invention, the inner component is in the form of a hairball treatment for cats and the outer component is a dough-like material. A system for producing the edible product includes a first material source for supplying a first edible material to form the inner component of the edible product, a second material source for supplying a second edible material to form the outer component of the edible product, and an extruder for continuously coextruding the first edible material and the edible second material to produce an elongated rope of edible product. A crimping apparatus receives the longitudinal rope extruded from the extruder for crimping the longitudinal rope to separate the longitudinal rope into individual edible products. A method for producing the edible product involves supplying the first and second edible materials to the extruder, and continuously coextruding the first and second materials as a longitudinal rope in which the first material is positioned within and surrounded by the second material. The longitudinal rope is cut at spaced apart locations as it is being extruded from the extruder to produce individual edible products each containing an inner component comprised of the first material and an outer cover component comprised of the second material that substantially completely surrounds the inner component, with the edible products being sealed at opposite ends.

L'invention porte sur un produit comestible comprenant un composant interne comestible fabriqué dans une première substance et un composant d'enrobage comestible encapsulant pratiquement totalement le composant interne comestible. Selon une réalisation de cette invention, le composant interne se présente sous forme d'une boule de poils de traitement pour chat de ce produit comestible comprend une première source de substance destinée à fournir une première substance comestible de façon à former le composant externe du produit comestible, une seconde source de substance destinée à fournir une seconde substance comestible de façon à former le composant externe du produit comestible, et une extrudeuse permettant de coextruder en continu la première et la seconde substance comestible pour former un boudin allongé de produit comestible. Un dispositif d'ondulation reçoit le boudin longitudinal extrudé afin de l'onduler et de le séparer en produits comestibles individuels. Le procédé de fabrication de ce produit comestible consiste à amener dans l'extrudeuse les première et seconde substances comestibles et les coextruder en continu sous forme d'un boudin longitudinal dans lequel se trouve la première substance entourée de la seconde substance. Le boudin longitudinal est découpé à des points espacés au fur et à mesure de l'extrusion de façon à produire des produits comestibles individuels contenant chacun un composant interne constitué de la première substance et un composant d'enrobage constitué de la seconde substance et entourant pratiquement complètement le composant interne, les produits comestibles étant soudés à leurs extrémités opposées.
