DE19950947A1 - Cutting machine for cutting into meat or meat products - Google Patents

Abstract

The machine has units for driving (3,4) two cutter rollers (5), for spacing locking (6) of cutting elements (7) on the rollers,for cutting depth adjustment, and also has safety guards and electric operating elements (10). The cutter rollers are exchangeable and are installed parallel to one another and connected by form-locking to a gearbox (4). The rollers can be contra-rotatable. The cutting elements are circular in form and spaced out on the respective rollers with half-pitch relative displacement.

Description

The invention relates to a cutting device for decorati ven cutting the surfaces of preferably meat with Rind, meat products or the like

It is a handheld device for scratching the surface of a piece of meat up to a certain adjustable Depth of cut to create a decorative pattern nen, which has a sales-promoting effect.

On the other hand, the need for the enlarged surface agile thermal treatment time and absorption intensified by seasonings.

According to the cutting device include a housing 2 for receiving the drive motor 3 and gear 4 , the electrical rule's 10 actuators for preferably two-hand operation and the releasable positive connection 11 between rule's 4 and cutting rollers 5th

The two counter-rotating, preferably as shown in Fig. 2, rotating cutting rollers 5 are mounted on the opposite side 13 of the connection to the gear 11 in the protective hood 9 , which is detachably attached to the housing 2 .

The cutting elements 7 in the form of circular knives are held to one another by the distance locks 6 at a desired distance a and, as shown in FIG. 1, are offset on the two cutting rollers 5 by half the distance a.

The lines of action of the rotating circular knives overlap yourself.

To hold the material to be cut 1 and for the depth of cut position, a lockable pressure plate 12 is present.

Further advantageous embodiments of the invention result itself from the claims, the drawings and the description gene to the mode of operation and the embodiment which is explained below.

The preferred field of application of the invention is decorative Carving meat parts with rind and other meat were.

Especially for the design of meat parts for sale in the meat industry, in supermarkets, butchers and in gastronomy is manual scoring the meat surface with the knife very time consuming.

With a small distance between the incisions, the Working with the knife rarely, even surface to achieve kitchen quality.  

This is the case for meat with rind, for example to be traced back to the fact that the elastic meat part when one cutting the rind surface moves and difficult can be captured.

The invention is based on the task of existing ones To avoid disadvantages.

The cutting device is placed with the pressure plate on the meat portion to be cut and after pressing the two electrical switching elements 10 evenly, corresponding to the desired pattern, moved over the surface.

The particular advantage of Schneidvorrich tung invention is that the counter-rotating circular blade 7 introduced in the meat part of feed and cutting forces compensate outward.

This will prevent the meat from slipping, but also prevented on the pad and an optimal Cut quality achieved.

For different sizes of the pattern, interchangeable cutting rollers 5 with different knife spacing locks 6 are provided.

The lockable pressure plate 22 serves to hold down the material to be cut and to adjust the depth of cut.

The diameter d of the circular knife 7 , the center distance of the cutting rollers 5 , the depth of cut and the distance of the knives 7 on the cutting rollers 5 are dimensionally coordinated for different sizes.

The drawings show:

Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the cutting device;

Fig. 2 shows the arrangement of the circular knife with material to be cut.
