Vinegar is added and the lid 3 is closed. After that, when the rotating container 2 is rotated around the rotation axis C by the driving means 5,
The rotation is such that the axis C2 of the rotary container 2 is circularly moved between the large opening 2A side and the bottom plate 2B side, the rice M is lifted and dropped in the wooden barrel 44, and is agitated by the agitator 24. After seeing the situation where rice M and vinegar are mixed, forced ventilation means 6
By forcibly supplying air into the rotary container 2, and cooling the rice M and the rotary container 2 while mixing. Dry.

し、団子状になっていれば粉砕される。As described above, since the container axis C2 is inclined with respect to the rotation axis C, the rice M in the wooden barrel 44 moves back and forth in the direction of the container axis C2, and the front and rear are alternately switched.
Therefore, the rice M is mixed smoothly and efficiently, and the excess water is absorbed by the contact with the wooden barrel 44, so that the rice M can be sufficiently mixed while holding an appropriate amount of water.
Further, since the lid 3 is provided with the swelling body 22 and projects into the rotary container 2, the rice M lifted by the stirring body 24B collides with the swelling body 22 when falling. If it is dumpling, it will be crushed.

Is supplied to the rotary container 2 through the opening 45 and then becomes a circulating flow in the direction of the rotation axis C, and the small opening 21 is separated from the rotation axis C. By virtue of its presence, the air stream circulates in the rotary container 2 and passes through the large number of holes of the bulge 22 at low pressure and is discharged from the small opening 21 (see FIG. 7).

To prevent the rice M inside from spilling even when the lid 3 is opened. In that state, the lid 3 is opened and the rice M is transferred to the rice receiver 15 with a rice scoop or the like. The forced ventilation means 6 may be operated even after taking out the rice M to cool the wooden barrel 44.

合が可能になる。Further, since the opening 45 for introducing the air from the forced ventilation means 6 is formed concentrically with the rotation axis C in the bottom of the wooden barrel 44, the rice M and the wooden barrel 44 can be cooled and the rice can be mixed during the mixing. The excess water content of M can be absorbed by the wooden barrel 44, and the mixing for obtaining the taste of rice, which is performed in a wooden tub while fanning with a fan, becomes possible.
