MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611022758 A) filed by Graphic Era, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on Feb. 26, for 'plant protein processing machine for fabrication, cooking, and formation of patty chaap.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Narendra Gariya; and Prof. Narpinder Singh.

The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a semi-automatic plant protein processing machine (100) for fabrication, cooking, and formation of patty chaap. The machine integrates three functional units, namely a gluten separating unit (101), a plant protein extrusion and mixing unit (102), and a patty formation unit (103). The gluten separating unit is configured to prepare dough and facilitate separation of starch from gluten using controlled water sprinkling, perforated discharge, and centrifugal separation. The gluten-rich mass is then transferred to the extrusion and mixing unit, where the dough is extruded through a die having rectangular slots and simultaneously wrapped around rotating sticks through coordinated rotational and linear motion to form uniformly patty chaap. The patty chaap is subsequently cooked in a heated water bath and cut into standardized pieces in the patty formation unit. The integrated arrangement reduces manual intervention, improves hygiene, ensures uniform product quality, and provides an efficient, cost-effective solution for large-scale production of plant-based protein chaap."
