Abstract

L'invention concerne une sorbetière et un procédé de commande de cette sorbetière. Lors de la rotation d'ailettes d'agitation (9) destinées à agiter une matière de glace (A) reçue dans un récipient d'agitation (11) au moyen d'un moteur (4) entraîné par l'intermédiaire d'une batterie (2) utilisée comme source d'alimentation, le moteur (4) destiné à faire tourner les ailettes (9) est commandé de manière à fonctionner pendant une durée prédéterminée à des intervalles de temps prédéterminés définis en vue d'une agitation de phase initiale et d'une agitation de phase postérieure. Cela permet de réduire la consommation d'énergie de la batterie (2) et de produire une glace de bonne qualité.
