Scales for portioning sliced products

The invention relates to a scale for portioning sliced products on a slicing machine resting on a base with a weighing mechanism accommodating a scale housing, a weight display and one above the Storage point of the load plate arranged to be portioned sliced goods is known (DE-PS 5o8 346), slicing machines to combine with scales, with calibrated scales to get the exact weight of the cut off Measure portion right on the spot. However, such calibrated scales are bulky, cumbersome in the handling, they can only be assigned to the slicing machine with difficulty and also require a Considerable expense, which is particularly high when the scales more or less directly into the slicer is integrated.

It is the object of the invention to remedy these shortcomings and to provide a space-saving, inexpensive and adaptable scale To propose connection with a slicer.

The object is achieved in that the Load plate cantilevered the scale housing laterally in this way

towers above that in the case of the slicing machine Scale housing, the load plate covers the placement point of the sliced product to be portioned.

The following description of a preferred embodiment is used in conjunction with the accompanying drawing of FIG further explanation of the invention. Show it:

Figure 1 schematically shows a side view of a

Portion scales;

Figure 2 is a plan view of the balance from Figure 1 and

FIG. 3 the balance from FIGS. 1 and 2 in combination

with a slicer.

As can be seen in particular from FIGS. 1 and 2, a balance housing 1 encloses the weighing mechanism 2 of a spring balance.

On an outer side wall 3 of the housing 1, the one opposite side wall 4 located on the inside are two parallelogram links 5, -6 which form a parallelogram linkage hinged. The free ends of these links 5, 6 are in turn articulated to a carrier 7, which one on this Way load plate 8 guided in parallel is supported. A spring 9, on the one hand on an arm 11 fixed to the frame and on the other hand is mounted on an arm 12 connected to the carrier 7, the load plate 8 pulls (upwards) in a known manner their zero position. A pointer designed as an angle lever and rotatably mounted on a further arm 13 of the housing 1 plays on a scale 15. in such a way that the position of the

Pointer 14 on the scale 15 also from above - compare Figure 2 - can be read. Such designs of pointer and scale are known per se. The pointer 14 is still connected at its angled arm via a link 16 to the arm 12 protruding from the carrier 7, so that a weight-dependent movement of the load plate 8 a corresponding movement of the pointer 14 and thus the weight display triggers. The scale 15 is also in a manner known per se and therefore only indicated schematically a movable mark serving for the setpoint adjustment is provided. When the pointer 14 points to the appropriately preset Mark 17 hits, an optical or acoustic signal is triggered in a known manner, which indicates that the load plate 8 is loaded with the preset weight.

As FIGS. 1 and 2 show, those covered with the carrier 7 rigidly connected load plate 8 on the one hand the balance housing from above and on the other hand protrudes laterally cantilevered far beyond the housing 1. The scale housing 1 is fixed on its underside with a side that is also wide connected via the housing protruding foot 18, which preferably extends approximately as far as the load plate 8. For reasons of stability, the foot 18 is with the side wall in one piece, so made by angling.

From Figure 3, the application of the balance described can be seen. With her foot protruding far to the side 18 the balance is pushed under the base 19 of a slicing machine 21 in such a way that the load plate 8 is cantilevered is above the placement point of a sliced product to be portioned. As a sliced product is shown in Figure 3

a sausage 22 indicated (it can also be a piece of cheese or meat), which in a known manner by a rotating circular knife 23 of the machine is cut into slices / which in turn are then placed on the load plate 8 be stored and stacked there to form a portion with the desired weight. This weight can be applied to the The scale 15 can be read off or displayed by means of the mark 17 serving as a setpoint adjuster. The load plate 8 is of course so far above the surface of the base 19 that the balance can swing freely.

The handlebars 5,6 delivering a robust parallelogram linkage serve to safely guide the load plate 8, even if it is loaded with a considerable weight. Of stability and safe operation of the arrangement is also used by that which can be pushed far under the base 19, underneath the load plate located foot 18 of the balance. The basic idea of the portioning scales described is that the cut material on the load plate 8 covering the depositing point falls and detection is possible via the pointer 14, when the desired weight is almost reached. After that, the exact weight can be measured on a standard scale determined and the associated price of the weighed goods calculated. According to the invention, it should not be Precision scales can be combined with the slicing machine, but only a scale that has a certain Provides a preview of the desired weight of the portion to be cut. This allows the slicer The scales to be provided, which then lie with their housing on the side of this machine, are relatively simple, be designed to be space-saving and robust, with the foot 18, as well as the load plate 8, as a thin plate, can be manufactured.
