The shock wave produced is propagated through the water within the tank, couples with the meat to compress the meat as the shock wave strikes the meat, and then is reflected by the tank wall to effect a substantial doubling of the shock wave effect.Field of SearchInvolving wave energy of the sonic or pulsating typeTREATMENT OF PACKAGED PRODUCT BY ELECTRICAL OR WAVE ENERGY DIRECT APPLICATION OF ELECTRICAL OR WAVE ENERGY TO FOOD MATERIAL TENDERIZERS ELECTRIC, RADIANT OR VIBRATIONAL TREATING MEANS By operations other than force of contact with solid surface | |
