Abstract

In order to be able to prepare certain kinds of meat, such as cooked ham, sausage meat, etc., it is necessary to grind the meat, which has occurred hitherto by cutting. In order to avoid the disadvantageous effect of cutting meat, a processing head is proposed in which the meat is not cut but rather essentially torn apart by pressing it into a space divided up by a support bar (8) and then conveying it through a corresponding discharge opening (7). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Bearbeitungs­kopf für einen Fleischwolf.The invention relates to a processing head for a meat grinder.

Für bestimmte Fleisch aufweisende Produkte, wie Kochschinken, Wurst, Fleisch, Toastschinken oder gepreßte Vorderschinken, ist es erforderlich, das Fleisch zu zerkleinern. Hierbei wird im Stand der Technik so vorgegangen, daß die Rohware geschnitten wird und dann weiterverarbeitet wird.For certain meat-containing products, such as cooked ham, sausage, meat, toasted ham or pressed shoulder ham, it is necessary to shred the meat. In the prior art, the procedure is such that the raw material is cut and then further processed.

Dieses Zerschneiden des Fleisches wurde als nach­teilig empfunden, da dadurch die Fleischfasern in einer unnatürlichen Weise zerstört werden, was sich auf die Endqualität des Produktes nachteilig aus­wirkt.This cutting of the meat was felt to be disadvantageous because it destroyed the meat fibers in an unnatural manner, which had a negative effect on the final quality of the product.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Be­arbeitungskopf für einen Fleischwolf zu schaffen, der als sogenannter Fleischaktivator bezeichnet werden kann, d.h. das Fleisch wird zwar zerkleinert, aber nicht zerschnitten, sondern es soll zerrissen werden, um damit den natürlichen Fleischfaserge­gebenheiten besser Rechnung zu tragen.The invention has for its object to provide a processing head for a meat grinder, which can be referred to as a so-called meat activator, i.e. the meat is chopped, but not cut, but should be shredded in order to take better account of the natural meat fiber conditions.

Diese der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch die Lehre des Hauptanspruches gelöst.This object on which the invention is based is achieved by the teaching of the main claim.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteran­ sprüchen erläutert.Advantageous configurations are in the Unteran sayings explained.

Mit anderen Worten ausgedrückt, schlägt die Erfin­dung ein Zusatzgerät vor, das an den Bearbeitungs­kopf eines Fleischwolfes angeschlossen werden kann, so daß durch die Förderschnecke des Fleischwolfes das Fleisch in diesen Bearbeitungskopf hineingepreßt wird. Der Bearbeitungskopf selbst ist mit einer Aus­laßöffnung ausgerüstet, durch die das Fleisch aus­treten kann, wobei der Bearbeitungskopf so gestaltet ist, daß auf dem Weg zwischen der Förderschnecke des Fleischwolfes und der Austrittsöffnung des Bearbei­tungskopfes einerseits ein Zusammenpressen des Flei­sches erfolgt, andererseits ein Zerreißen des Flei­sches im Bereich der Austrittsöffnung gewährleistet wird.In other words, the invention proposes an additional device that can be connected to the processing head of a meat grinder, so that the meat is pressed into this processing head by the screw conveyor of the meat grinder. The processing head itself is equipped with an outlet opening through which the meat can exit, the processing head being designed in such a way that on the one hand the meat is compressed on the way between the conveyor screw of the meat grinder and the outlet opening of the processing head, on the other hand the meat is torn in Area of the outlet opening is guaranteed.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfol­gend anhand der Zeichnungen erläutert. Die Zeich­nungen zeigen dabei in

  • Fig. 1 den eigentlichen Bearbeitungskopf in einer schaubildlichen Darstellungs­weise und in
  • Fig. 2 den Bearbeitungskopf an das Förder­rohr eines Fleischwolfes angeschlos­sen.
An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawings. The drawings show in
  • Fig. 1 shows the actual processing head in a graphical representation and in
  • Fig. 2 connected the processing head to the conveyor pipe of a meat grinder.

In den Zeichnungen, insbesondere in Fig. 2, ist mit 5 das Förderrohr eines Fleischwolfes 6 bezeichnet. An der Vorderseite des Förderrohres 5 ist eine Über­wurfmutter 12 erkennbar, durch die ein in Fig. 2 allgemein mit 14 bezeichneter Arbeitskopf an das Förderrohr 5 angeschlossen werden kann. Der Aufbau des Bearbeitungskopfes 14 geht deutlicher aus Fig. 1 hervor.In the drawings, in particular in FIG. 2, the delivery pipe of a meat grinder 6 is designated by 5. On the front of the delivery pipe 5, a union nut 12 can be seen, through which a working head, generally designated 14 in FIG. 2, can be connected to the delivery pipe 5. The structure of the machining head 14 is clearer from FIG. 1 forth.

Der Bearbeitungskopf 14 besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Rohrstück 1, das an das Förderrohr 5 ange­schlossen werden kann, wobei dieses Rohrstück 1 eine rückwärtige Anlageschulter 15 aufweist, an der die Überwurfmutter 12 anliegt. Das Rohrstück 1 weist an seiner Innenseite Widerlagernocken 9 auf, die bei Betrieb der Schnecke im Förderrohr 5 ein Drehen des von der Schnecke in das Rohrstück 1 hineingeförder­ten Fleisches im wesentlichen verhindern. Im Inneren des Rohrstückes 1 befindet sich zentrisch eine Wi­derlagerstange 8, die sich an ihrem im Bereich des Rohrstückes 1 befindenden Ende an den Kopf der För­derschnecke des Förderrohres 5 anlegt und an ihrem anderen Ende an einer Abschlußplatte 3 anliegt und dort vorzugsweise drehbar gelagert ist.The processing head 14 consists essentially of a pipe section 1 which can be connected to the conveyor pipe 5, this pipe section 1 having a rear abutment shoulder 15 against which the union nut 12 bears. The tube section 1 has abutment cams 9 on its inside, which substantially prevent rotation of the meat conveyed into the tube section 1 by the screw in the conveyor tube 5 during operation of the screw. In the interior of the pipe section 1 there is a central abutment rod 8 which, at its end located in the area of the pipe section 1, bears against the head of the screw conveyor of the delivery pipe 5 and rests against an end plate 3 at its other end and is preferably rotatably supported there.

An das Rohrstück 1 schließt sich ein Auswurfstück 2 an, das einteilig mit dem Rohrstück 1 ausgebildet ist und einen kleineren Innendurchmesser als das Rohrstück 1 aufweist. Weiterhin weist das Aufwurf­stück 2, das durch die Rohrwand 4 gebildet wird, eine Öffnung 7 auf, die durch jeweilige wulstartige Randkanten 16 und 17 begrenzt wird. Hierbei sind die wulstartigen Randkanten 16 und 17 mit je einer Riffelung 10 versehen. Auch in dem Auswurfstück 2 ist zentrisch die Widerlagerstange 8 angeordnet.The pipe section 1 is followed by an ejection piece 2, which is formed in one piece with the pipe section 1 and has a smaller inner diameter than the pipe section 1. Furthermore, the throwing piece 2, which is formed by the tube wall 4, has an opening 7 which is delimited by respective bead-like edge edges 16 and 17. Here, the bead-like edge edges 16 and 17 are each provided with a corrugation 10. The abutment rod 8 is also arranged centrally in the ejection piece 2.

Beim Betrieb der Schnecke in dem Förderrohr 5 wird das Fleisch in das Innere des Rohrstückes 1 gepreßt und von dort in den Raum zwischen der Widerlager­stange 8 und der Innenseite der Rohrwand 4 und kann dann durch die Öffnung 7 austreten, wobei in über­raschender Weise festgestellt werden konnte, daß das Fleisch aus der Öffnung 7 in einem zerrissenen flockenartigen Zustand austritt, also die erforder­liche Zerkleinerung besitzt, ohne daß das Fleisch geschnitten werden mußte.During operation of the screw in the conveyor tube 5, the meat is pressed into the interior of the tube piece 1 and from there into the space between the abutment rod 8 and the inside of the tube wall 4 and can then exit through the opening 7, which could be found in a surprising manner , that this Meat emerges from the opening 7 in a torn flake-like state, that is to say has the required size reduction, without the meat having to be cut.

Die Abschlußplatte 3 weist im Bereich der Öffnung 7 eine Abweiserplatte auf, die den Austritt des Flei­sches in diesem Bereich erleichtert und die Aus­trittsrichtung bestimmt.The end plate 3 has a deflector plate in the area of the opening 7, which facilitates the exit of the meat in this area and determines the exit direction.
