Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9205873A1] Apparatus is disclosed for use in the abrasion of small objects, e.g. rice grains, to remove surface material, e.g. bran, therefrom. A chamber (2) has a bottom formed by an abrasive drum (14) which passes under a transverse wall (12) of the chamber. An inlet (22) is provided for objects to be abraded. An outlet (24) is provided for abraded objects. In use, objects recirculate in the chamber and material removed from said objects passes under the transverse wall. An auger (26) feeds objects through or from the inlet to generate pressure on the recirculating objects to press the lowest objects against the moving drum.
