Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for forming total portions of a plurality of, in particular at least partially superimposed, portions, each comprising at least one slice of a food product.
  • several food products in particular food products of different types, are cut into portions which are in each case at least one product slice at the same time and in several lanes
  • the invention further relates to a production line with at least one slicing device, in particular a high-performance slicer, for simultaneous, multi-lane slicing of several food products, in particular food products of different types, in each at least one product slice comprehensive portions, and with at least one conveyor device for forming total portions after a method of the type described herein can be operated.
  • at least one slicing device in particular a high-performance slicer, for simultaneous, multi-lane slicing of several food products, in particular food products of different types, in each at least one product slice comprehensive portions, and with at least one conveyor device for forming total portions after a method of the type described herein can be operated.
  • the portioned slicing of food products is basically known.
  • EP 0 713 753 B 1 and US 5,724,874 A directed.
  • the products to be sliced at the same time can be supplied individually, with the aim of providing, if necessary, the slices separated by one product differing in thickness from the slices separated from the other product.
  • One here as a portion designated plurality of product slices should not only have a predetermined weight and be presented attractively, but it is increasingly desired that the packs contain slices of different products or products of different varieties, for example, different types of sausage or different cheeses, where, for example, also desired will make that in the packs sausage and cheese slices together form a mixed total serving.
  • a first cutting machine in this case creates a series of first slices, while a second cutting machine creates a series of second slices. The first and second discs are then combined.
  • a multiplicity of slicers is also necessary because the further consumer demand to be satisfied by the pack manufacturers is that the "mixed packs" not only produce slices of different sizes Products, but also in the packs of each product different numbers of discs should be present.
  • the object of the invention is to expand the possibilities when slicing food products, it being possible to produce "mixed packs" from slices of different food products, in particular of products of different types, as simply, reliably and inexpensively.
  • the total portions are formed from portions whose slices differ from one another with regard to the type of product and the number of product slices.
  • the respective portions forming a total portion are produced by a slicing method.
  • the products are cut open with a common slicing device, in particular a high-performance slicer, which has at least one cutting knife which rotates in a cutting plane about a knife axis and / or orbits planetary about a central axis, and the products the cutting blade are supplied individually such that each portion fulfills a predetermined condition for the respective track, which relates in particular to the weight of the portion, the weight and / or the thickness of the portion forming product slices, and / or the number of product slices forming the portion ,
  • the individual product supply is used to impart predetermined, in particular mutually different, properties to the portions produced in the individual tracks, ie to achieve that the portions of the individual tracks, in particular different ones, fulfill conditions which can be specified in a targeted manner.
  • the products in the tracks can be fed to the cutting blade completely independently of each other.
  • the products in the tracks can be fed to the cutting blade in such a way that several parallel conveyors arranged side by side are driven together and the individual speeds of the conveyors are changed individually.
  • variable is not to be understood as being broadly equivalent to differences between products that the end-user either does not perceive at all or that are completely irrelevant to the end-user, such as different distributions of the density or constituents of a product, which are naturally always present even when viewed from the consumer's "same" products.
  • the total portions are formed from portions which differ from each other in terms of the number of their slices, and optionally in terms of their portion weight, and / or in terms of weight and / or the thickness of their slices.
  • the formation of the total portions can take place, for example, during the transport of the portions to a downstream device, in particular to a packaging machine for the total portions.
  • the total portions are formed by the portions being at least partially superimposed.
  • the total portions are formed by the portions being successively introduced into a package, in particular during the transport of the portions to a downstream device, in particular a packaging machine for the total portions.
  • a first portion can be inserted into a package, whereupon one or more further portions are placed on the first portion already in the package.
  • a release liner for example, made of paper, is inserted.
  • the conveying device can be followed by at least one packaging machine for the total portions to be produced.
  • the slicing apparatus comprises a product feed which comprises a plurality of conveyors arranged parallel to one another, with which the products can be fed in multiple tracks to a cutting plane in which at least one cutting blade, in particular rotating and / or rotating, moves.
  • the product feeder is designed to supply the products individually to the cutting blade such that each portion fulfills a condition prescribed for the respective lane, in particular the weight of the portion, the weight and / or the thickness of the product slices forming the portion, and according to the invention to each Case concerns the number of product slices forming the portion.
  • Fig. 1 gives first an overview of a possible embodiment of a production line according to the invention, which comprises a high-performance slicer 15, a conveyor device 29 and a packaging machine 21.
  • the slicer 15 is able to cut several food products 11 - here three products - at the same time, for each product 11 a track is provided. For each track, the slicer produces 11 portions 13 during slicing of the products.
  • a portion may comprise one or more sliced product slices, i. Also a single separated product slice is intended to constitute a portion within the scope of the invention.
  • the slicer 15 downstream conveyor device 29 ensures that from the incoming in the individual tracks portions 13 total portions 19 are formed, which are then fed to the packaging machine 21 and packaged there. Each total portion 19 thus contains a portion 13 of each of the tracks.
  • each total portion 19 contains several types of slices, i. the production line produces "mixed packs", as already mentioned at the beginning.
  • the variety of producible total portions can be further increased, ie the portions 13 produced simultaneously by the multi-track cutting can not differ from each other in terms of the variety of product slices forming the portions 13.
  • the cutting plane 17 of the slicer 15, in which moves at least one cutting knife, not shown here, the three products 11 can be supplied individually.
  • a conveyor 27 is provided for each track and thus for each sliced product 11, which engages the rear product end and feeds the product 11 in the arrow direction of the cutting plane 17.
  • the individual product feed means that in each track, and thus for each product 11, the feed rate can be individually adjusted and varied.
  • each track it is possible in accordance with the invention in each track to temporarily interrupt the product supply, i. stopping the respective conveyor 27 in order to carry out so-called idle cuts with respect to the product concerned, i. in order to ensure that no slices are temporarily separated from the relevant product 11, as already mentioned in the introductory part.
  • the latter is in Fig. 2 indicated.
  • the portions 13 formed from the simultaneously sliced products 11 each have two disks in the left-hand track, one disk in the middle track and three disks in the right-hand track, respectively.
  • This result can be achieved by separating one slice for each three successive cutting movements or operations of the cutting knife from the right product during each cutting operation, while the middle product is subjected to two empty cuts and the left product is blank-cut.
  • the right product is cut "fastest", whereas the middle product is "sliced” the slowest, which in Fig. 2 is indicated by the correspondingly different product residual lengths.
  • Fig. 3 is the example of a two-lane operation, a way to form total portions 19 from two each hereinafter also referred to as individual portions portions 13 illustrated.
  • the individual portions 13 may each consist of one or more product slices, which are not shown here in detail.
  • Fig. 3 illustrated conveying device is also referred to as stacking device, since the individual portions 13 are stacked in the formation of the total portions 19 each one above the other.
  • conveyors 31, which are designed as endless belt conveyors.
  • An upper portion 13 is already on an existing example of paper separating layer 25.
  • the placing of the upper portions 13 on the separating layers 25 takes place at an upstream, not shown.
  • conveyor belt 31 which each lie on the separating layer 25 upper portions 13 reach a lower portion 13, whereby a total portion 19 is formed, which in turn by means of a downwardly inclined conveyor belt 33 in about lower conveyor belt 31 transported packaging 23 are inserted.
  • the conveyor belt 31 transporting the packages 23 can be regarded as part of the packaging machine not otherwise shown here, in which the packages 23 provided with the total portions 19 are finished, in particular closed.
  • the upper portion 13 and the lower portion 13 are derived from different tracks of a slicer, as described above the example of Fig. 2 was explained.
  • the upper portion 13 may be, for example, three slices of cheese, while the lower portion 13 is formed, for example, of two slices of ham, the lowest slab of cheese is separated from the uppermost sausage slice by the separating layer 25.
  • the upper portion 13 and the lower portion 13 may differ from each other in terms of their total weight, in terms of the weight of their discs or in terms of the thickness of their discs. These parameters can be adjusted by a corresponding control of the product supply of the slicer 15 in basically any manner, as described above.
