Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Halten und Zuführen des Schneidgutes an einer Aufschnitt-Schneidemaschine mit einem Maschinengestell, einem rotierend angetriebenen Kreismesser, einem verschiebbaren Schneidgutschlitten und mit einem schwenkbar auf dem Schlitten gelagerten, quer zu dessen Verschieberichtung gleitverschieblichen Träger, der mit seinem freien Ende auf das Schneidgut aufsetzbar ist.The invention relates to a device for holding and feeding the material to be sliced on a slicer with a machine frame, a rotating circular knife, a slidable sled and with a pivotally mounted on the sled, transversely to its direction of displacement, the free end of the carrier the material to be cut can be put on.

Aufschnitt-Schneidemaschinen dieser Art dienen vor allem zum Schneiden von Lebensmitteln, insbesondere Fleisch, Wurst, Käse, und dgl. Die an bekannten Maschinen vorgesehenen Halte- und Zuführvorrichtungen für das Schneidgut zum Kreismesser hin sind auf einer am Schneidgutschlitten befestigten Führungsachse in Zuführrichtung verschieblich und um diese Führungsachse schwenkbar, wobei eine dem Schneidgut zugewandte Fläche mit Spitzen, Zähnen, Kämmen oder Gabeln ausgerüstet ist, die zur Positionierung des Schneidgutes während des Zuführens in das Schneidgut mehr oder weniger tief eingedrückt werden.Slicers of this type are used primarily for cutting food, in particular meat, sausage, cheese, and the like. The holding and feeding devices for the material to be cut to the circular knife, which are provided on known machines, are displaceable in the feed direction and around on a guide axis attached to the material to be cut this guide axis can be pivoted, a surface facing the material to be cut being equipped with tips, teeth, combs or forks, which are used for positioning the material to be cut more during feeding into the material to be cut or less deeply.

Dabei ist nachteilig, daß die Spitzen, Zähne und dgl. insbesondere bei weichen Schneidgutsorten, beispielsweise Schmierwurst, keine ausreichende Fixierwirkung haben und/oder das Schneidgut z. B. durch Deformation erheblich beschädigen.It is disadvantageous that the tips, teeth and the like. In particular in the case of soft types of cut material, for example greasy sausage, do not have a sufficient fixing action and / or the cut material, e.g. B. significantly damaged by deformation.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine gattungsgemäße Vorrichtung so zu gestalten, daß sie das jeweilige Schneidgutstück weitgehend unabhängig von dessen Umfangs- und Querschnittsform sicher und ohne Beschädigung hält.It is an object of the invention to design a generic device in such a way that it holds the respective item to be cut securely and without damage largely independently of its circumferential and cross-sectional shape.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß. schwenkbar am freien Ende des Trägers ein Greifer mit wenigstens zwei von seiner Schwenkachse abstehenden Fingern angeordnet ist und von den Fingern je eine gekrümmte Nadel absteht, und daß der Greifer einen Handhebel aufweist, mit dem die gekrümmten Nadeln in das Schneidgut eindrückbar sind.The object is achieved in that. A gripper with at least two fingers projecting from its pivot axis is arranged pivotably on the free end of the carrier and a curved needle protrudes from the fingers, and that the gripper has a hand lever with which the curved needles can be pressed into the material to be cut.

Die nachstehende Beschreibung einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung dient im Zusammenhang mit beiliegender Zeichnung der weiteren Erläuterung. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 schematisch eine Vorderansicht einer Aufschnitt-Schneidemaschine;
  • Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht der Maschine in Richtung des Pfeiles Z in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 eine (um 90° verdrehte) Draufsicht in Richtung des Pfeiles C in Fig. 1 und
  • Fig. 4 eine Schnittansicht entlang der Linie 4-4 in Fig. 3.
The following description of a preferred embodiment of the invention serves in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for further explanation. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 shows schematically a front view of a slicer;
  • Fig. 2 is a side view of the machine in the direction of arrow Z in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a (9 0 ° twisted) top view in the direction of arrow C in Fig. 1 and
  • 4 is a sectional view taken along line 4-4 in FIG. 3rd

Die auf der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellte Aufschnitt-Schneidemaschine 1 umfaßt ein Maschinengestell 2, auf dem ein Kreismesser 3 drehbar gelagert ist. Ein von einem Gehäuseteil 4 umschlossener, nicht dargestellter Motor treibt das Kreismesser 3 rotierend an. Die Schneidebene des Kreismessers ist mit S bezeichnet. Eine parallel zu dieser Ebene verlaufende, verstellbare Anschlagplatte 5 bestimmt in bekannter Weise die Schnittstärke. Das in Scheiben zu zerteilende Schneidgut 6 (in der Zeichnung eine Wurst) wird auf die Auflagefläche 7 eines Schlittens 8 aufgelegt, der in bekannter Weise parallel zur Schneidebene S des Kreismessers 3 gleitverschieblich ist. Das Schneidgut wird auf dem Schlitten 8 liegend dem rotierenden Kreismesser 3 zugeführt und dabei in Anlage an der Anschlagplatte 5 gehalten. Nach jedem Abschneiden einer Scheibe muß das Schneidgut in Zuführrichtung Z nachgeführt und wieder an die Anschlagplatte 5 angelegt werden.The slicer 1 shown schematically in the drawing comprises a machine frame 2 on which a circular knife 3 is rotatably mounted. A motor, not shown, enclosed by a housing part 4 drives the circular knife 3 in rotation. The cutting plane of the circular knife is labeled S. An adjustable stop plate 5 running parallel to this plane determines the cutting thickness in a known manner. The material to be cut 6 to be sliced (in the drawing, a sausage) is placed on the support surface 7 of a carriage 8, which is slidable in a known manner parallel to the cutting plane S of the circular knife 3. The material to be cut is fed to the rotating circular knife 3 lying on the carriage 8 and held in abutment with the stop plate 5. After each slice has been cut, the material to be cut must be in the feed direction Z tracked and put back on the stop plate 5.

Die auf der Zeichnung dargestellte Aufschnitt-Schneidemaschine ist ein sogenannter "Schrägschneider", bei dem die Schneidebene S, die Auflagefläche 7 des Schlittens 8 und dementsprechend auch die Zuführrichtung Z schräg zur Horizontalen verlaufen. Die im nachstehende zu beschreibende Vorrichtung zum Halten und Zuführen des Schneidgutes gemäß der Erfindung ist jedoch nicht nur für solche Maschinen, sondern auch für Maschinen mit vertikal angeordnetem Kreismesser und horizontal liegender Auflagefläche 7 geeignet.The slicer shown in the drawing is a so-called "bevel cutter", in which the cutting plane S, the support surface 7 of the carriage 8 and, accordingly, the feed direction Z are inclined to the horizontal. The device for holding and feeding the material to be cut according to the invention, which is to be described below, is not only suitable for such machines, but also for machines with a vertically arranged circular knife and a horizontally lying support surface 7.

Die gemäß Fig. 2 zur Vorderseite der Maschine hin schräg verlaufende Auflagefläche 7 weist an ihrer Vorderseite einen nach oben umgebogenen Randabschnitt 9 auf, an dem das zugeführte Schneidgut 6 ebenfalls anliegt (Fig. 2). An der dem Randabschnitt gegenüberliegenden Kante ist an der Auflagefläche 7 eine parallel zur Zuführrichtung Z verlaufende Führungsachse 11 starr angeordnet. Auf der Führungsachse 11 ist mittels einer Führungsbuchse 12 ein als Halte-und Zuführvorrichtung dienender Träger 13 in Z-Richtung gleitverschieblich und (in der Ebene der Fig. 2) schwenkbar gelagert. Der Träger 13 hat die in Fig. 2 dargestellte abgewinkelte Gestalt und reicht in Form eines Schwenkbügels von der Führungsachse 11 bis zu dem am Randbereich-9 anliegenden Schneidgut 6, auf dessen Umfang das freie Ende des Trägers 13 in der aus Fig. 2 ersichtlichen Weise aufsetzbar ist. Vom Träger 13, der parallel zur Zuführrichtung Z verläuft, steht - parallel zur Schneidebene S und senkrecht zur Zuführrichtung Z - ein plattenförmiger Schenkel 14 ab, der an seiner dem Kreismesser 3 zugewandten Seite mit vorspringenden Spitzen 15 versehen ist.The support surface 7, which runs obliquely towards the front of the machine in accordance with FIG. 2, has on its front side an upwardly bent edge section 9, against which the material to be cut 6 also bears (FIG. 2). On the edge opposite the edge section, a guide axis 11 running parallel to the feed direction Z is rigidly arranged on the support surface 7. On the guide axis 11, a carrier 13, which serves as a holding and feeding device, is slidably mounted in the Z direction and pivotable (in the plane of FIG. 2) by means of a guide bush 12. The carrier 13 has the angled shape shown in FIG. 2 and extends in the form of a swivel bracket from the guide axis 11 to the cutting material 6 resting on the edge region 9, on the circumference of which the free end of the carrier 13 in the 2 can be seen from FIG. A plate-shaped leg 14 protrudes from the carrier 13, which runs parallel to the feed direction Z, parallel to the cutting plane S and perpendicular to the feed direction Z and is provided with projecting tips 15 on its side facing the circular knife 3.

Am freien Ende des.Trägers 13 ist ein Greifer 16 angeordnet, der es gestattet, vorübergehend eine feste Verbindung zwischen dem in Zuführrichtung Z verschieblichen Träger 13 und dem Schneidgut 6 herzustellen, so daß letzteres mit Hilfe des auf der Führungsachse 11 geführten Trägers dem Kreismesser 3 zugeführt werden kann. Der Greifer 16 umfaßt eine starr von dem Schenkel 14 abstehende Schwenkachse 17, auf der durch eine Mutter 18 gesichert, eine Buchse 19 drehbar angeordnet ist. Vcn der Buchse 19 stehen in gegenseitigem Abstand W (Fig. 4) zwei Finger 21 senkrecht ab. Etwa in der Mitte dieser Finger sind ebenfalls abstehend dünne, gekrümmte Nadeln 22 befestigt, die nach unten zum Schneidgut 6 hin weisen. Die Krümmung der dünnen Nadeln 22 verläuft auf:- zur Schwenkachse 17 konzentrischen Kreisen. Wie dargestellt, verläuft die Schwenkachse 17 ihrerseits parallel zur Zuführrichtung Z. Weiterhin ist an der Buchse 19 starr ein Handhebel 23 befestigt, mit dessen Hilfe die Buchse 19 und die mit ihr starr verbundenen Nadeln 22 hin-und herverschwenkbar sind. Zwei Anschläge 24, 25, an denen der Handhebel 23 jeweils anschlägt, begrenzen den Schwenkwinkel α.At the free end of the carrier 13, a gripper 16 is arranged, which makes it possible to temporarily establish a fixed connection between the carrier 13, which is displaceable in the feed direction Z, and the material to be cut 6, so that the latter, with the aid of the carrier guided on the guide axis 11, the circular knife 3 can be supplied. The gripper 16 comprises a pivot axis 17 which projects rigidly from the leg 14 and on which a bushing 19 is rotatably secured by a nut 18. Vcn the socket 19 are at a mutual distance W (Fig. 4) from two fingers 21 vertically. Approximately in the middle of these fingers, thin, curved needles 22 are also protruding and point downward toward the material 6 to be cut. The curvature of the thin needles 22 runs on: circles concentric with the pivot axis 17. As shown, the pivot axis 17 in turn runs parallel to the feed direction Z. Furthermore, a hand lever 23 is rigidly attached to the socket 19, with the aid of which the socket 19 and the needles 22 rigidly connected to it can be pivoted back and forth. Two stops 24, 25, against which the hand lever 23 strikes, limit the swivel angle α.

Der plattenförmige Träger 13 weist parallel zur Schneidebene S Schlitze 26 auf. Die Schwenkachse 17 des Greifers 16 liegt oberhalb des Trägers 13. Wird der Greifer 16 aus seiner in Fig. 2 linken, strichpunktierten Lage durch Anfassen am Griff 23 in die mit ausgezogenen Linien dargestellte Lage verschwenkt, so dringen die dünnen, gekrümmten Nadeln 22 leichtgängig in das Schneidgut 6 ein, weil sie konzentrisch zur Schwenkachse 17 gekrümmt verlaufen. Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, legen sich dabei die freien Endbereiche der Finger 21 tangential auf die Umfangsfläche des Schneidgutes 6 an und begrenzen hierdurch die Eindringtiefe der Nadeln 22 in das Schneidgut. Wegen der verhältnismäßig großen Auflagefläche der Finger 21 am Schneidgut 6 wird dieses dabei nicht deformiert oder beschädigt. Eine Beschädigung des Schneidgutes ist weiterhin auch durch die Führung der Nadeln auf zur Schwenkachse 17 konzentrischen Kreisbahnen ausgeschlossen. Der Abstand W zwischen den Nadeln 22 gewährleistet eine sichere Fixierung am Greifer.The plate-shaped carrier 13 has slots 26 parallel to the cutting plane S. The pivot axis 17 of the gripper 16 lies above the carrier 13. If the gripper 16 is pivoted from its position shown in dash-dotted lines on the left in FIG. 2 by touching the handle 23 into the position shown in solid lines, the thin, curved needles 22 penetrate easily the material to be cut 6 because they are curved concentrically to the pivot axis 17. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the free end regions of the fingers 21 lie tangentially on the circumferential surface of the material to be cut 6 and thereby limit the depth of penetration of the needles 22 into the material to be cut. Because of the relatively large contact surface of the fingers 21 on the material to be cut 6, this is not deformed or damaged. Damage to the material to be cut is also excluded by guiding the needles on circular paths concentric with the pivot axis 17. The distance W between the needles 22 ensures a secure fixation on the gripper.

Der Greifer wird in einer von der Schneidebene S entfernten Position über die Nadeln 22 in Wirkverbindung mit dem Schneidgut gebracht. Sobald das Schneidgut 6 durch die eingedrungenen Nadeln 22 fest mit dem Träger 13 verbunden ist, kann dieser während des nacheinander erfolgenden Abschneidens von Scheiben zusammen mit dem an ihm festgehaltenen Schneidgut 6 dem Kreismesser 3 zugeführt werden.In a position remote from the cutting plane S, the gripper is brought into operative connection with the material to be cut via the needles 22. As soon as the material to be cut 6 is firmly connected to the carrier 13 by the penetrated needles 22, this can be fed to the circular knife 3 during the successive cutting of slices together with the material to be cut 6 held on it.

Bei anderen Ausführungsformen der Erfindung können an der Buchse 19 auch mehr als zwei Finger 21 mit Nadeln 22 angeordnet werden. Außerdem könnten an jeweils einem Finger mehr als eine konzentrisch zur Schwenkachse gekrümmte Nadel abstehend angebracht sein.In other embodiments of the invention, more than two fingers 21 with needles 22 can also be arranged on the socket 19. In addition, more than one needle concentrically curved to the pivot axis could protrude from a finger.

Zum Aufschneiden von Schneidgut-Reststücken, die kürzer als der Abstand W zwischen zwei Fingern 21 sind, so daß also nur noch eine der spitzen Nadeln 22 in diese Stücke eindringen und sie festhalten könnte, werden diese kurzen Reststücke zwischen das Kreismesser 3 und den Schenkel 14 des Trägers 13 eingelegt, wobei die am Schenkel 14 vorgesehenen, zum Kreismesser 3 hin gerichteten Spitzen 15 in die am Schenkel 14 anliegende Rückseite des Reststückes eindringen und eine Mitnahme beim Bewegen des Schlittens 8 sicherstellen.For cutting up pieces of cut material that are shorter than the distance W between two fingers 21, so that only one of the pointed needles 22 could penetrate into these pieces and hold them, these short remaining pieces are between the circular knife 3 and the leg 14 of the carrier 13 inserted, the tips 15 provided on the leg 14 and directed towards the circular knife 3 penetrating into the rear side of the remainder piece abutting the leg 14 and ensuring entrainment when the carriage 8 is moved.
