Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a dispenser for continuously feeding frying machines comprising a rotary hopper in turn comprising at least two sectors, each of them configured for storing therein a maximum volume of product to be fried, and comprising an opening at its bottom, and a driving area configured for receiving the movement caused by rotation of the hopper. The dispenser also comprises a product retention plate securely located below the hopper, which comprises a window forming a product discharge area of the hopper for discharging the product by gravity, control means, and first driving means connected to the control means configured for mechanically cooperating with the driving area of the hopper. The control means are configured for activating the first driving means, rotating the hopper so that each of the openings of each sector coincides with the window of the product retention plate, and allowing the product to fall freely by gravity from said sector. Additionally, the present invention also relates to a frying machine comprising said dispenser.
