Pump for dispensing liquid or semi-liquid or semi-solid food products and machine comprising said pump

摘要

A pump for dispensing semi-liquid food products includes an inlet opening, an outlet opening, a dispensing path between the inlet opening and the outlet opening, a rotor for pushing the product along the dispensing path, and an airtight chamber, interposed between the inlet and outlet openings and coaxially containing the rotor. The dispensing path is defined by a cyclically choked gap formed between an outer periphery of the rotor, including three projecting and angularly equidistant lobes, and an inner periphery of the airtight chamber, which is elastically deformable.
