Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for slicing food products, in particular sausage, meat or cheese.
  • Such devices may have a product support for at least one product to be sliced, which is adjustable between an inclined working position in which the product is cut, and a, in particular horizontal, loading position in which the product is placed on the product support by hand or by a transport device the product circulation is promoted.
  • This may be a gripper device, through which the product is gripped at its rear end.
  • the product holder is moved with the product or the product is conveyed through the product holder. For this it is necessary that the product holder is guided.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a slicing device for food products with an adjustable product support, in which the product holder is guided in an improved manner.
  • a device for slicing food products in particular sausage, meat or cheese, specified, with a product support which is adjustable between a, in particular inclined, working position and a, in particular horizontal, loading position, wherein in the loading position, the product support with at least one product and in the working position, the product can be fed to a cutting blade arranged downstream of the product support along a conveying direction, with at least one product holder which can interact with the product in the working position, and with a product holder guide device by means of which the product holder is attached to two perpendicular to the product holder Conveying direction spaced sides is guided.
  • the device according to the invention thus not only an adjustable product support is provided, but also a two-sided guide device for the product holder. It can thereby be achieved that the product holder is performed more stable overall, so that it does not twist or bend even with heavy products or less than would be the case, for example, in a one-sided leadership, in which the product holder is guided only on one side.
  • product holder has to be interpreted broadly. It can not just be a device that holds the product. Rather, it can also be understood as meaning a device which can somehow be brought into contact with the product and / or by means of which the product can be handled - however it may be. It is also not necessary that the product holder is used for product promotion. This means that the product holder can only be moved or driven along with the product without the product being conveyed by means of the product holder.
  • the product holder may be, for example, a product gripper, a product pusher or a product suppressor.
  • the product holder can be brought into engagement with the product, preferably a rear end of the product facing away from the cutting blade.
  • the product holder can thus be a product gripper engaging in the rear product end.
  • a drive for the product holder is arranged above the product support.
  • the drive is thus outside the range within which the product support is adjustable.
  • it is thereby possible to arrange the drive in relative proximity to the product holder and the guide device, so that with little effort the drive and the product holder can be coupled together.
  • the guide device may have two guides extending in the conveying direction, between which the product holder is guided. This allows the product holder to be easily guided over the entire length of the product support.
  • a support for the guide device is provided.
  • the stability and torsional rigidity of the guide device and thus also of the product holder can be improved.
  • the support can extend laterally of the product support. As a result, the support is outside the adjustment range of the product support and does not interfere with the loading of the product support on the rear end of the loading process.
  • the product support is adjustable so that a rear end of the product support is raised to the working position and lowered into the loading position.
  • the product support can be adjusted particularly easily between a horizontal loading position and a tilted working position.
  • the product support is adjustable by pivoting, wherein in particular a pivot axis for the product support is located in the front region of the product support.
  • the loading of the product support with the product is provided over a rear end of the product support or from the side.
  • the feed can be done by hand.
  • a transport device behind the product support or laterally next to the product support a transport device can be provided, with which the product is conveyed onto the product support.
  • the product support may comprise an endless conveyor belt for the product by means of which the product can be conveyed.
  • the endless conveyor belt can thus form the bearing surface for the product and be at least part of a conveyor for conveying the product.
  • the product can also be conveyed through the product holder in the conveying direction and thus fed to the cutting blade.
  • the product holder may be a gripper device which has at least one gripping claw, through which the product, in particular at its rear end, can be gripped. Due to the intervention in the product, this can be moved by the gripper device not only in the conveying direction but also counter to the conveying direction. This may, for example, be desirable or necessary during the cutting operation.
  • the rear, uncut remainder of the product can be moved away from the conveyor by the gripper device away from the cutting blade and controllably dumped into a waste container.
  • the device according to the invention can thus be designed for a multi-track cutting operation in which the products lying on the product support which are correspondingly widened in comparison with a single-track operation are fed to the cutting blade in a plurality of adjacent tracks. Since the product holders are guided by the two-sided guide means at two perpendicular to the conveying direction sides, the product holder are stable and torsionally rigid, despite the relatively large width of the product support, which can be problematic in a one-sided leadership.
  • a common carrier may be provided, which is guided by means of the guide device.
  • the Product holder can be easily coupled to the guide device.
  • the product holder can be movably supported by the carrier on the guide device.
  • the carrier and the guide device cooperate in the manner of a linear drive in such a way that the carrier can be moved along the guide device.
  • a linear drive in such a way that the carrier can be moved along the guide device.
  • the carrier can be configured as a rotor of the linear drive, which can be moved by means of a magnetic field that can be generated along the guide device.
  • the illustrated device 1 is provided for slicing food products 3.
  • the device 1 has a product support 5, which is adjustable between a dashed loading position and a working position. In the loading position, the product support 5 is arranged horizontally. In this position, a loading of the product support 5 with - in the example shown - three adjacent products 3, which via a rear end 5a (see. Fig. 2 ) of the product support 5, for example, by a not shown Transport device are supplied, which promotes the products 3 on the product support 5.
  • the product support 3 is pivoted about a pivot axis 7 provided in the front region 5b of the product support 5, so that the rear end 5a is raised relative to the front region 5b of the product support 5.
  • the three products 3 are side by side, ie in three tracks, fed in a conveying direction I a cutting blade 9 and cut from this.
  • a product holder 11 designed as a product gripper is in each case brought into engagement with a rear end of a product 3 remote from the cutting blade 9 in the working position.
  • the product holder 11 are guided by a guide device 13 at two perpendicular to the conveying direction I spaced sides.
  • the guide device 13 has two in the conveying direction I extending guides 15, which are each laterally outside next to the outer tracks of the products 3 and between which the product holder 11 are guided (see. Fig. 1 ). This position of the guides 15 is not mandatory. The guides 15 may also be more or less widely spaced.
  • the product holder 11 are mounted at least longitudinally movable on the guide device 13 via a common carrier 17.
  • At least one of the guides 15 may be formed, for example, in the manner of a spindle, which is driven in rotation by a drive 19.
  • the rotating movement of the spindle can be achieved by a suitable bearing for the Carrier 17 are implemented, for example via a nut in a translational movement of the product holder 11, so that the product holder 11 along the conveying direction I can be moved.
  • the product holder 11 can thus be carried out a promotion of the products 3 in the conveying direction I.
  • the product holders 11 can also serve only for holding and retracting a product residue and be provided in addition to a conveyor for the products 3.
  • the carrier 17 and at least one of the guides 15 can interact in the manner of a linear drive (not shown).
  • a magnet may be provided in the carrier 17, in particular in a sliding sleeve, not shown, via which the carrier 17 is coupled to the guide 15.
  • the magnet interacts with a magnetic field which can be generated along the guide 15, so that the position of the carrier 17 along the guides 15 is adjustable.
  • the carrier 17 therefore forms a rotor of the linear drive, which can be moved along the guide 15 by means of the magnetic field which can be generated in the guide 15.
  • the product holders 11 are designed as grippers which grasp the rear end of the product 3 by means of a gripping claw 21. This makes it possible that the products 3 are not only conveyed in the conveying direction I, but can also be moved counter to the conveying direction I, if necessary.
  • the product support 5 may comprise a not shown, driven endless conveyor belt, which forms the actual support surface for the products 3 and by which the products 3 can be conveyed in addition or alternatively to the product holders 11.
  • extending supports 23 are provided laterally adjacent to the product support over which the guides 15 are supported on a frame 25 of the device 1.
  • the illustrated device 1 has according to the above embodiments, the adjustable product support 5 and the two-sided guide means 15 for the product holder 11, through which the product holder can be performed particularly stable and torsionally rigid on the device 1. As a result, in particular the accuracy of the product supply is significantly improved.
