Thisinvention relates `tothe art of stuiiing meat. In particular itis concerned With nevv and improved'method of and means for cleaning` meat stuti'ers having meat-expelling ,pistons-operatedby compressednair or other methods of` cleaning such space, asv practiced heretofore, so far as I am. aware,t,have been tov removea hanclvhold cover, and scrape out the accumulated meat, or to take the heavy piston from the cylinder. and then scrape out Eachmethod requires considerable time and labor and does,A not permit of thel desired thoroughness oi cleansing- My invention,however, requires lbut little,z it any, additional simple apparatusandcaul be, carried outina few minutes` Without dismantlingtlie stutter or; its parts. lvioreover,l it Cleansesthe saidspacey thoroughlyrr and is; so simple and easy to practice that it may be used' daily, thusnot only insuring perfect, sanitation at all times but alsopreventing spoilage losses and,` permitting the produc-` tion .1 of high grade meat.

compressed, gas through the:` liquid inthe space.; i
Vheniit is desired toremove meatre tuse and the llilreitrom space, 6 and to cleanse, sterilize andrinse the4 space or chamber, thev cover 2 is preferablyI clampedgin placeand tubes 4 closed. Pipes 1l, 18 orA 22 arevconnected=to the eXhaustoutlet of valvefS-or to valve 23, and cleaningliquidjis delivered into space 6, enough. force beingl usedy for this purpose to overcome any back pressure caused by air in the space, and preferably enough additional force is used to move the piston toward cover 3. Then the valve 8 is turned to admit compressed gas into space 6, as much being admitted as may be desired, for example up to lbs. pressure per square inch or until iston 5 is moved close tocover 2, or both. uch gas will pass up through the liquid in bubbles and will thoroughly agitate the liquid thereby stirring up meat lodged in corners of the chamber and causing it to be suspended in the liquid and bringing the liquid into cleaning contact with the lower surface ofthe piston. Vhcn there is suliicient pressure on the liquid, the pipe 13, 18 or 22 is detached, preferably from pumps 12, 17, or valve 21, as the case may be, the end being placed in or over a suitable receptacle to receive the expelled liquid, and then valve 8 is turned to connect space G with outlet opening 9, whereupon the liquid and meat in the space will be forcibly discharged through pipe 13 or 18. With the arrangement of Fig. 1, pipe 11 need not be disconnected but by opening valve l2-l an outlet for. the liquid will be provided. Y
More than one method of practicing my invention may be carried out by the apparatus of F ig. 4L.V For example, cleaning liquid may be brought into the space 6 through pipe 7 and discharged through valve 23 or pipe 7 as desired. The cleaning liquid may also be brought into and discharged from the space 6 through valve 23. Compressed gas may be used regardless of the particular method of bringing liquid into space 6 of F ig. l and discharging itl therefrom. Moreover, the use of compressed gas is not essential with this particular modification of apparatus. The valve 25, if opened during the entry of liuid into the space 6, will permit escape of air or gas therefrom and insure substantially complete filling of the space with liquid, so that the liquid will come into cleaning contact with the lower surface of the piston and not be separated therefrom by a substantially insulating layer of compressed gas, as would otherwise be the case. When the valve 25 is used in this manner it may be closed when the space 6 is completely filled to permit the cleaning fluid to remain in contact with the walls of space 6, but when it is desired to withdraw the liquid from space 6 the valve 25 is opened, the liquid escaping through valve 23.
When curved extension 12 is used, nearly or practically all the liquid may be exhausted from the space 6. If any cannot 'be so removed and it be desirable to remove it, a suitable plugged drain hole 26 may be utilized.
I have found that the walls of space 6 may be rendered substantially dry and more or less thoroughly protected lfrom rusting if,
after the cleaning and rinsing fluids have been withdrawn from the space, compressed gas is admitted to the space and then eX- hausted therefrom one or more times. Such gas has the effectof blowing out or carrying out with` it the remaining traces of moist-ure and liquid.
Various other means of introducing liquid into the space behind the stuifer and removing it therefrom may be utilized when desired without departing` from the spirit of my invention.
It will be observed that I have provided a simple, effective method of thoroughly cleaning stufiing machines to replace the slow, costly, ineffective method practiced for many years heretofore. It will also be observed that I employ little apparatus additional to the stuifer and its parts, but that I utilize part-s of the stuffer in a new manner.
Many changes in the apparatus described above may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention, the scope of which is defined in what is claimed.
