Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrisch betriebene Scheibenschneidemaschine zum Abschneiden von Scheiben aus insbesondere strangförmigem Schneidegut, vorzugsweise Lebensmittel, mit einer Schneideeinrichtung, die mindestens ein in einem in einem Maschinengehäuse gelagertes, in einer Schneidebene rotierendes Kreismesser umfasst, und mit einem eine Auflageplatte mit Auflagefläche zum Auflegen des Schneideguts enthaltenden Schlitten, wobei der Schlitten parallel zur Schneidebene verfahrbar ist und eine Schlittenrückwand aufweist, welche einen ersten ebenen Wand-abschnitt umfasst, der sowohl senkrecht zur Schneidebene des Kreismessers als auch zur Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte verläuft, wobei der erste ebene Wandabschnitt mit lichtem Abstand von der Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte mittels einer Befestigungsvorrichtung derart an der Auflageplatte befestigt ist, dass ein Durchgangsspalt zwischen der Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte und der Unterkante des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts offen bleibt.The invention relates to an electrically operated disc cutting machine for cutting slices of particular stranded cutting material, preferably food, with a cutting device comprising at least one mounted in a machine housing, rotating in a cutting plane circular blade, and with a support plate with support surface for laying the Slides containing cutting material, wherein the carriage is movable parallel to the cutting plane and having a carriage rear wall which comprises a first planar wall portion which extends both perpendicular to the cutting plane of the circular blade and the support surface of the support plate, wherein the first flat wall portion with a clear distance of the support surface of the support plate is fastened by means of a fastening device to the support plate such that a passage gap between the support surface of the support plate and the lower edge of the first planar wall section o stay alive.

Derartige Scheibenschneidemaschinen sind beispielsweise bekannt aus der DE 17 85 081 U .Such disk cutting machines are known, for example from the DE 17 85 081 U ,

Das Schneidegut, insbesondere in automatisch betriebenen Scheibenschneidemaschinen für strangförmige Lebensmittel, wie etwa Würste, Schinken, Lachs, Käse etc., wird mit Hilfe einer Zustelleinrichtung gegen die Schneideeinrichtung bewegt, meist in Richtung senkrecht zur Schneidebene, in welcher üblicherweise ein oder mehrere rotierende Kreismesser umlaufen, um Scheiben vom geförderten Schneidegut abzuschneiden. Der Antrieb der Schneideeinrichtung erfolgt durch einen Elektromotor, der zum Schutz gegen Spritzwasser und Verschmutzung sowie zur mechanischen Sicherung gegen äußere Eingriffe vom Maschinengehäuse vollständig umschlossenen ist.The material to be cut, in particular in automatically operated slicing machines for rope-shaped foods, such as sausages, ham, salmon, cheese, etc., is moved by means of a feed device against the cutting device, usually in the direction perpendicular to the cutting plane, in which usually rotate one or more rotating circular blade to cut off slices of conveyed material. The drive of the cutting device is carried out by an electric motor, which is completely enclosed to protect against splashing water and pollution and for mechanical protection against external interference from the machine housing.

Um nun die erwünschte Scheibe durch das rotierende Messer vom Schneidegut abtrennen zu können, wird das Schneidegut auf der Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte liegend mittels eines Schlittens parallel zur Schneidebene verfahren und auf die umlaufende Messerklinge zubewegt, bis das rotierende Messer das Schneidegut vollständig durchgeschnitten und die Scheibe vom Schneidegut abgeschnitten hat.In order to be able to separate the desired disc from the material to be cut by the rotating blade, the material to be cut on the support surface of the support plate is moved by means of a carriage parallel to the cutting plane and moved towards the rotating knife blade until the rotating blade completely cut through the cutting material and the disc from Cutting material has cut off.

Zum Schutz des Bedienungspersonals und zur Vermeidung von Arbeitsunfällen muss dabei ein manuelles Eingreifen in den Scheidbereich der Schneideeinrichtung durch bauliche Maßnahmen möglichst ausgeschlossen werden. Deswegen weisen gemäß den Sicherheitsvorschriften ausgestaltete professionelle Scheibenschneidemaschinen stets eine Bedienerseitig am Schlitten angebrachte Schlittenrückwand auf, die den Bereich oberhalb der Auflagefläche und insbesondere in der Nähe der Schneideeinrichtung vom Bediener her möglichst unzugänglich machen soll.To protect the operating personnel and to avoid accidents at work while a manual intervention in the cutting area of the cutting device must be excluded by structural measures as possible. For this reason, professional slicing machines designed in accordance with the safety regulations always have a slide rear wall mounted on the slide on the operator side, which is intended to make the area above the support surface and in particular in the vicinity of the cutting device as inaccessible to the operator as possible.

So ist in der EP 1 897 664 A1 eine Scheibenschneidemaschine gezeigt und beschrieben, bei der die Auflageplatte des Schlittens als Blech ausgeführt und auf der Bedienerseite als abgewinkelte Lasche nach oben gebogen ist. Da diese Lasche als Bedienerschutz ganz offensichtlich nicht ausreicht, ist über zwei Schrauben und mittels Distanzstücken ein weiteres Blech an der abgewinkelte Lasche befestigt, welches zunächst in paralleler Verlängerung der Lasche nach oben ragt und dann in Richtung auf den Raum über der Auflagefläche schräg abgewinkelt ist.So is in the EP 1 897 664 A1 a disc cutting machine shown and described, in which the support plate of the carriage is designed as a sheet and bent on the operator side as an angled tab upwards. Since this tab is obviously not sufficient as operator protection, another sheet is attached to the angled tab via two screws and spacers, which initially projects in parallel extension of the tab upwards and then angled obliquely in the direction of the space above the support surface.

Abgesehen davon, dass diese Blechkonstruktion der Bedienperson in großen Teilen die freie Sicht auf das Schneidegut nimmt, ist sie mechanisch auch nicht sonderlich stabil. Vor allem aber ist eine optimale Arbeitssicherheit nicht gewährleistet, weil die Bedienperson zum Betätigen des Schlittens die Blechkonstruktion umgreifen muss und im Betrieb der Scheibenschneidemaschine mit der Hand zwangsläufig in den Gefahrenbereich der Schneideeinrichtung gelangt. Zudem sind mit dieser Vorrichtung die im Bereich der Lebensmittelverarbeitung besonders wichtigen erhöhten Hygieneanforderungen nicht erfüllbar, weil der durch die Distanzstücke erzeugte breite und schwer zugängliche Spalt zwischen der Lasche und dem weiteren Blech nur äußerst schwierig und daher kaum regelmäßig und keinesfalls gründlich zu reinigen ist.Apart from the fact that this sheet metal construction of the operator takes in large parts of the free view of the cutting material, it is mechanically not very stable. Above all, optimal working safety is not guaranteed because the operator must grip around the sheet metal construction for operating the carriage and inevitably passes into the danger zone of the cutting device during operation of the disc cutting machine by hand. In addition, with this device, the particularly important in the field of food processing increased hygiene requirements can not be met, because the width generated by the spacers and hard to reach gap between the tab and the other sheet is extremely difficult and therefore hardly regularly and never thoroughly clean.

In einer Scheibenschneidemaschine, wie sie etwa aus der DE 38 27 404 A1 bekannt ist, wird die Schlittenrückwand durch eine Konstruktion von transparenten Kunststoffplatten gebildet, welche direkt und starr mit dem Schlitten verbunden sind. Diese Verbindung ist zwar erheblich stabiler als die Blechkonstruktion gemäß EP 1 897 664 A1 und gibt aufgrund der Durchsichtigkeit des Kunststoffs auch den Blick auf das Schneidegut frei, jedoch genügt diese Schlittenrückwand immer noch nicht den erhöhten Hygieneanforderungen, weil an der Stoßstelle zwischen der Unterkante der Kunststoffplatte und der aus Metall bestehenden Auflageplatte unweigerlich ein Kapillarspalt bestehen bleibt, welcher nicht gründlich gereinigt werden kann. Zudem muss zum Bedienen der Maschine wiederum mit der Hand um die Schlittenrückwand herum und damit in den Gefahrenbereich hinein gegriffen werden, weil die Handhabe für die Schneideguthalterung und das Bedienelement für den Schlitten ebenfalls in diesem Gefahrenbereich angeordnet sind.In a slicing machine, something like out of the DE 38 27 404 A1 is known, the carriage rear wall is formed by a construction of transparent plastic plates, which are directly and rigidly connected to the carriage. Although this connection is considerably more stable than the sheet metal construction according to EP 1 897 664 A1 and gives due to the transparency of the plastic and the view of the cutting material, but this slide back wall is still sufficient not the increased hygiene requirements, because at the junction between the lower edge of the plastic plate and the metal support plate inevitably remains a capillary gap, which can not be thoroughly cleaned. In addition, in order to operate the machine, it is again necessary to grip with the hand around the carriage rear wall and thus into the danger zone, because the handle for the cutting material holder and the operating element for the carriage are likewise arranged in this danger zone.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es demgegenüber, eine gattungsgemäße Scheibenschneidemaschine der eingangs beschriebenen Art kostengünstig und mit einfachen technischen Mitteln dahin gehend zu verbessern, dass die Maschine bei möglichst kompakter Gestaltung und optimalem Arbeitsschutz besonders gute Reinigungsmöglichkeiten und einfache Bedienung bietet, wobei die Schlittenrückwand derart ausgestaltet sein soll, dass das Schneidegut optimal gehalten wird und sichtbar bleibt, und wobei die erfindungsgemäß Scheibenschneidemaschine sich durch eine einfache Montage auszeichnen und die mechanische Stabilität der Konstruktion gegenüber den bekannten Scheibenschneidemaschinen erhöht sein soll.Object of the present invention is in contrast to improve a generic disc cutting machine of the type described above cost and with simple technical means to the extent that the machine offers very good cleaning options and ease of use with the most compact design and optimal safety, the slide rear wall to be configured that the cutting material is optimally maintained and remains visible, and wherein the disc cutting machine according to the invention are characterized by a simple assembly and the mechanical stability of the construction should be increased compared to the known disc cutting machines.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe auf ebenso überraschend einfache wie wirkungsvolle Art und Weise dadurch gelöst, dass die Schlittenrückwand senkrecht zur Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte verläuft, dass die Schlittenrückwand zumindest teilweise transparent ist, dass der Durchgangsspalt eine Spalthöhe von mindestens 2mm bis höchstens 15mm, vorzugsweise von 3mm bis 7mm aufweist, und dass die Befestigungsvorrichtung mindestens zwei Schrauben oder Stehbolzen umfasst, die von der Auflageplatte zum ersten ebenen Wandabschnitt verlaufen und jeweils in eine an der Unterkante des ersten Wandabschnitts angeordnete Öffnung eingreifen.According to the invention, this object is achieved in a surprisingly simple and effective manner in that the carriage rear wall is perpendicular to the support surface of the support plate, that the carriage back is at least partially transparent, that the passage gap a gap height of at least 2mm to at most 15mm, preferably from 3mm to 7mm, and that the fastening device comprises at least two screws or studs, which level from the platen to the first Run wall portion and each engage in a arranged on the lower edge of the first wall portion opening.

Auf diese Weise wird eine vereinfachte Wartung und Reinigung des besonders schmutzanfälligen Bereichs zwischen der Schlittenrückwand und der Auflageplatte ermöglicht. Ein Herumgreifen um die Schlittenrückwand im Betrieb der Scheibenschneidemaschine kann unterbleiben, weil aufgrund des Durchgangsspalts eine Möglichkeit zur Durchführung einer Handhabe bzw. eines Bedienelements eröffnet wird, was aus geometrischen Gründen bei der Schlittenrückwand einer gattungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine, wie sie in der oben zitierten DE 38 27 404 A1 beschrieben wird, eben gerade nicht möglich ist. Zur Behebung von "Sichtproblemen" kann die Schlittenrückwand der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine - ebenso wie die in der DE 38 27 404 A1 beschriebene - aus transparenten Kunststoffplatten, vorzugsweise aus Plexiglas oder Lexan® gebildet sein.In this way, a simplified maintenance and cleaning of the particularly dirt-prone area between the carriage rear wall and the support plate is made possible. A gripping around the carriage back wall in the operation of the disc cutting machine can be omitted, because due to the passage gap a possibility for performing a handle or a control element is opened, which for geometrical reasons in the carriage rear wall of a generic disc cutting machine, as in the above cited DE 38 27 404 A1 is described, just is not possible. To remedy "visual problems", the carriage rear wall of the disc cutting machine according to the invention - as well as in the DE 38 27 404 A1 be formed - made of transparent plastic plates, preferably made of Plexiglas or Lexan®.

Bei einer einfachen Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine weist der Durchgangsspalt über die Länge der Unterkante des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts eine gleichbleibende Spalthöhe auf. Neben den dadurch erzielbaren guten mechanischen Eigenschaften ergibt sich auch ein verbesserter optischer Eindruck der Gesamtkonstruktion.In a simple embodiment of the disc cutting machine according to the invention, the passage gap has a constant gap height over the length of the lower edge of the first planar wall section. In addition to the achievable good mechanical properties also results in an improved visual impression of the overall construction.

Bei vorteilhaften Ausführungsformen können um die Schrauben oder Stehbolzen hohle, vorzugsweise taillierte Distanzstücke angeordnet sein, die insbesondere eine dichtende Verbindung mit der Auflageplatte, vorzugsweise eine wasserdichte Abdichtung oder eine Verklebung aufweisen. Sowohl die dichtende Verbindung mit der Auflageplatte als auch die taillierte (im Gegensatz etwa zu einer zylindrischen) Formgebung der Distanzstücke vereinfachen und verbessern die Reinigung der Maschine in diesem Bereich und erhöhen dadurch die Hygiene.In advantageous embodiments, hollow, preferably waisted spacers can be arranged around the screws or studs, in particular a sealing connection with the support plate, preferably a watertight Have seal or a bond. Both the sealing connection with the support plate and the waisted (as opposed to a cylindrical) shape of the spacers simplify and improve the cleaning of the machine in this area, thereby increasing hygiene.

Einen effektiven Daumenschutz bieten Ausführungsformen der Erfindung, bei denen sich auf der von der Auflageplatte wegweisenden Bedienerseite der Schlittenrückwand an die der Schneideeinrichtung zugewandte Seitenkante des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts ein parallel zur Schneidebene des Kreismessers verlaufender, vom Schlitten wegragender zweiter ebener Wandabschnitt anschließt, wie er - per se - auch schon aus der der eingangs zitierten DE 38 27 404 A1 bekannt ist, wobei der zweite ebene Wandabschnitt starr, vorzugsweise einstückig mit dem ersten verbunden ist.An effective thumb protection offer embodiments of the invention, in which on the side facing away from the support plate operator side of the carriage back wall to the cutter side edge of the first planar wall portion parallel to the cutting plane of the circular blade extending, the slide away second flat wall section connects, as he - per se - even from the above quoted DE 38 27 404 A1 is known, wherein the second planar wall portion is rigid, preferably integrally connected to the first.

Vorteilhaft sind auch Ausführungsformen der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine, bei denen sich an die Oberkante des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts ein schräg in Richtung der Auflageplatte geneigter dritter ebener Wandabschnitt anschließt, der vorzugsweise einstückig mit dem ersten ebenen Wandabschnitt verbunden ist. Dieser dritte ebene Wandabschnitt trägt zu einer ergonomisch besseren Bedienbarkeit der Maschine und einer großflächigeren Abdeckung des Gefahrenbereichs bei, was den Unfallschutz zusätzlich erhöht. Per se ist eine solche Ausgestaltung auch aus der oben zitierten EP 1 897 664 A1 bekannt.Also advantageous are embodiments of the disc cutting machine according to the invention, in which adjoins the upper edge of the first planar wall portion inclined obliquely in the direction of the support plate third flat wall portion, which is preferably integrally connected to the first planar wall portion. This third flat wall section contributes to an ergonomically better usability of the machine and a larger area coverage of the danger area, which additionally increases the accident protection. Per se, such an embodiment is also from the above-cited EP 1 897 664 A1 known.

Besonders bevorzugt sind Ausführungsformen der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine, die sich dadurch auszeichnen, dass eine in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Schneidebene verschiebbare Schneideguthalterung vorgesehen ist, die ein durch den Durchgangsspalt ragendes Verbindungselement aufweist, das auf der von der Auflageplatte wegweisenden Bedienerseite der Schlittenrückwand mit einer Handhabe verbunden ist. Damit ergeben sich eine ergonomisch besonders günstige Bedienbarkeit der Schneideguthalterung im Betrieb der Maschine sowie ein besonders kompakter mechanischer Aufbau. Während bei bekannten Scheibenschneidemaschinen der Bediener in der Regel um die Schlittenrückwand herumgreifen muss und seine Hand unweigerlich in die Gefahrenzone im Bereich der Schneideeinrichtung bringt, ist mit dieser Ausgestaltung eine Handhabung der Schneideguthalterung ausschließlich von der Bedienerseitige der Schlittenrückwand aus möglich, was den Arbeitsschutz ganz erheblich verbessert.Particularly preferred embodiments of the disc cutting machine according to the invention, which are characterized in that a displaceable in a direction perpendicular to the cutting plane Schneideguthalterung is provided, which has a projecting through the passage gap connecting element which is connected to the pioneering from the support plate operator side of the carriage rear wall with a handle. This results in an ergonomically particularly convenient operation of the cutting material holder in the operation of the machine and a particularly compact mechanical structure. While in known disk cutting machines, the operator usually has to reach around the carriage rear wall and inevitably brings his hand into the danger zone in the area of the cutting device, this configuration makes it possible to handle the cutting material holder exclusively from the operator side of the carriage rear wall, which considerably improves the occupational safety ,

Bei einer bevorzugten und leicht herzustellenden Weiterbildung dieser Ausführungsformen ist die Handhabe als aufklemmbarer oder aufschraubbarer Drehgriff ausgeführt, der von dem Verbindungselement trennbar und mit diesem starr verbindbar ist. Dadurch können die Schneideguthalterung und das Verbindungselement zu Reinigungszwecken leicht entfernt werden, wobei der Drehgriff - unverlierbar - an der Scheibenschneidemaschine verbleibt.In a preferred and easy to manufacture further development of these embodiments, the handle is designed as a clampable or screw-on rotary handle, which is separable from the connecting element and rigidly connected thereto. As a result, the cutting material holder and the connecting element can be easily removed for cleaning purposes, the rotary handle - captive - remains on the disc cutting machine.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass ein starr mit dem Schlitten verbundenes oder verbindbares, vorzugsweise als Griff ausgestaltetes Bedienelement vorgesehen ist, mit welchem ein Verfahren des Schlittens ermöglicht wird.A further advantageous embodiment of the disc cutting machine according to the invention is characterized in that a rigidly connected to the carriage or connectable, preferably designed as a handle control element is provided with which a method of the carriage is made possible.

Bei besonders einfachen und kompakten Weiterbildungen der beiden oben beschriebenen Ausführungsformen wirkt das Bedienelement gleichzeitig als Handhabe und ist senkrecht zur Schneidebene verfahrbar auf einer Schiene montiert, die parallel zur Ebene des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts sowie senkrecht zur Schneidebene verläuft. Durch diese Gestaltung übt dasselbe Bauelement eine Doppelfunktion aus.In particularly simple and compact developments of the two embodiments described above, the operating element simultaneously acts as a handle and is perpendicular to the cutting plane movably mounted on a rail which is parallel to the plane of the first flat wall portion and perpendicular to the cutting plane. With this design, the same component performs a dual function.

Insbesondere kann bei vorteilhaften Varianten dieser Weiterbildungen die Schiene als parallel zur Auflagefläche der Auflageplatte und senkrecht zur Schneidebene verlaufende, mit seitlichem Abstand von der Auflageplatte montierte Stange ausgeführt sein, wodurch die gesamte Breite des Schlittens als Verfahrfläche gewonnen wird.In particular, in advantageous variants of these developments, the rail can be designed as a parallel to the support surface of the support plate and perpendicular to the cutting plane, mounted at a lateral distance from the support plate rod, whereby the entire width of the carriage is obtained as Verfahrfläche.

Vorzugsweise ist bei besonders kompakten Varianten der oben beschriebenen Weiterbildungen das Bedienelement mittels eines Knebels an der Schiene feststellbar. Damit ergibt sich eine sehr einfach aufgebaute Fixiermechanik. Die Fixierung des Bedienelements wiederum verbessert die Handhabung der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine.Preferably, in particularly compact variants of the developments described above, the control element by means of a knob on the rail detected. This results in a very simple fixation mechanics. The fixation of the operating element in turn improves the handling of the slicing machine according to the invention.

Eine noch weiter verbesserte und vereinfachte Reinigung und damit eine erhöhte Hygiene ermöglicht eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung, bei der die Unterkante des ersten ebenen Wandabschnitts auf ihrer von der Auflageplatte wegweisenden Bedienerseite eine von oben nach unten schräg gegen Auflageplatte verlaufende Abschrägung aufweist.An even further improved and simplified cleaning and thus increased hygiene makes possible an embodiment of the invention in which the lower edge of the first flat wall section has on its side facing away from the support plate operator side obliquely running from top to bottom against support plate bevel.

Bevorzugt ist auch eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Scheibenschneidemaschine, bei der die Auflageplatte Schlittenrückwandseitig eine parallel zum ersten ebenen Wandabschnitt verlaufende Saftrille in der Auflagefläche aufweist. Diese Saftrille verhindert während des Schneidens von Wurst- oder Fleischwaren das unkontrollierte Austreten von Fleischsaft aus der Auflagefläche, indem sie den Saft auffängt und definiert ableitet.Also preferred is an embodiment of the disc cutting machine according to the invention, in which the support plate on the carriage rear wall side has a juice groove extending parallel to the first flat wall portion in the support surface. This juice groove prevents while cutting sausage or meat products that Uncontrolled release of meat juice from the support surface by collecting and draining the juice.

Eine besonders vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der obigen Ausführungs-form schließlich zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die Saftrille unmittelbar an einen von der Auflagefläche nach oben abgekantet verlaufenden Randabschnitt der Auflageplatte anschließend angeordnet, vorzugsweise in den Randabschnitt zumindest teilweise eingeformt ist. Dabei wirkt die Auflageplatte durch ihre Abkantung gleichzeitig als Befestigungssockel für den ersten ebenen Wandabschnitt und als Saftschutz.A particularly advantageous development of the above embodiment is finally distinguished by the fact that the juice groove is then arranged directly adjacent to an edge portion of the support plate that slopes upwards from the support surface, preferably being formed at least partially into the edge portion. The support plate acts by their fold at the same time as a mounting base for the first flat wall section and as juice protection.
