Definitions
- the invention relates to a whip for processing animal carcasses of slaughtered animals.
- EP 2 034 845 Bl relates to a whip as part of a slaughter line with a whip area and a head area in contact with a machine shaft.
- the whip region made of soft polymeric material and the head region made of hard and impact-resistant polymer material are bonded cohesively within their connecting region.
- Racket attachment assembly for a depilatory racket of a slaughter line.
- this racket has on its upper side a U-shaped channel and on its underside a U-shaped channel with an undercut.
- the attachment region can be secured in corresponding receptacles of a rotatable device of the slaughter line, i. there between or behind
- EP 1 956 918 B1 proposes a brush element for processing
- Carcasses of slaughtered animals having a coupling body and a substantially elongated flexible whip extending from the coupling body.
- the coupling body has a receiving space with a narrowed entrance, wherein the constricted entrance can be increased against a bias voltage.
- the brush element can be clicked on by a holder of a rotating device of a slaughter line with force, ie the coupling body is placed with its narrowed entrance to the holder and then with force the constriction is so far resiliently enlarged until the receiving space receives the holder and the coupling body is attached to this.
- the spring force of the narrowed entrance secures the coupling body on the holder.
- the disadvantage here is that for mounting the brush element on the holder a predetermined force is required to overcome the bias of the narrowed entrance when clicking on the brush element on the holder of the slaughtering device. The same force is also required to remove the brush element. Furthermore, only this bias secures the brush element on the holder. In the process, this preload can decrease over time due to material fatigue and thus increase the risk of unintentional release from the mounting.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a whip of the type described above, which can be even easier, especially with less force, mounted and / or disassembled and or or which has a safer attachment than in known whips. At least an alternative to known whips to be provided.
- the object is achieved according fiction, by a whip for the processing of carcasses of animals slaughtered with the features of claim 1.
- the invention is based on the finding that the assembly or disassembly and thus the replacement of worn whip elements can be achieved more easily and faster by the coupling element, fastener or head element are firmly connected to the holder of the slaughtering device and remain so, but a simply mechanical connection between the whip element and the coupling element is provided.
- This can be positive and / or non-positive.
- to replace a whip member it is only necessary to separate the worn whip member from the coupling member rather than, as hitherto, removing the whip as a whole from the slaughter line support. This can be done easier, faster and more convenient. This will reduce the cost of replacing the worn
- Coupling element can be used. Furthermore, only the
- Whip items are stocked instead of whole whips.
- the coupling element may be made of plastic or metal.
- a metallic coupling element absorb higher forces and moments, but is also stiffer.
- a plastic coupling element is simpler and cheaper to manufacture, e.g. by injection molding, and is also more flexible, but it can generally absorb lower forces and moments.
- the region of the whip element which serves to connect to the coupling element consists of plastic or metal and is designed to form a connection mechanism.
- the remainder of the whip element is made of flexible material, such as e.g. Rubber and serves to perform the whip movement.
- Whip element can be positively, non-positively and / or cohesively. Preference is given here to a cohesive compound, as described in EP 2 034 845 Bl.
- the first connecting element is a plug-in element and the second connecting element is a plug-in receptacle, or vice versa.
- the advantage here is that a connector is a very simple, robust and secure mechanical connection mechanism. Also, the assembly of a
- Whip element on a coupling element is very space-saving, because on a generally provided for rotary whip movement slaughtering device, the whip element can be mounted radially on the coupling element.
- the plug-in element has at least one projection and the plug-in receptacle has at least one recess and the projection can be brought into contact with the recess by a movement, preferably by a translatory movement, in such a way that the movement is opposite to the movement positively and / or non-positively prevented.
- a simple and secure latching mechanism is provided which can prevent removal and removal of the whip element from the coupling element.
- such a mechanism may be releasably designed to allow easy and quick disassembly of a worn whip element. This movement of the insertion or insertion can be either purely translatory or even completely or partially bent, for. around first fixed elements in
- the projection has an undercut substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement and the recess has a receptacle substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement, and the projection can be brought into contact with the recess by the movement in such a way that that the undercut engages in the receptacle, so that a movement opposite to the movement is positively prevented.
- the lead can also be referred to as locking lug and the recess as a latching hook.
- the projection has a wedge-shaped guide surface oriented substantially parallel to the axis of movement and the recess has a contact surface aligned substantially parallel to the axis of movement, and the wedge-shaped guide surface can thus contact the contact surface by movement are brought, so that the projection is substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement, preferably resilient, deflected.
- the insertion or plugging is facilitated because these surfaces can slide together. Also, the insertion or placement of the plug-in element in or on the
- Socket facilitates, because of the wedge-shaped design of the guide surfaces at the outer end, which first comes into contact with the corresponding receptacle, this end has a larger cross-section and thus provides clearance during insertion or placement.
- the projection then extends from its widened end wedge-shaped wider, so that the projection laterally forms at least one undercut to realize a latching mechanism.
- the plug-in element has two projections which are spaced apart by a gap substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement. As a result, sufficient space is created between the projections that they laterally deflect during insertion and thus can be inserted or attached at all or more simply.
- the second projections which are spaced apart by a gap substantially perpendicular to the axis of movement.
- the coupling element has a space through which the holder of the slaughtering device can be received. In this way, the coupling element can be easily and securely attached to the holder, so that a force or torque transmission of the
- the space is cylindrical.
- a whip may be used for slaughterers having cylindrical brackets which advantageously allow flexibility in aligning the whip with the support in its circumferential direction.
- the space has a slightly smaller inner diameter than the outer diameter of the
- Coupling element can be achieved in the closed position on the holder in order to prevent a relative movement of the whip around the holder, in particular during operation, frictionally.
- the space is angular or oval.
- Fig. La and lb different schematic representations of a first embodiment of a whip according to the invention in the unassembled state
- Figures lc to lg different schematic representations of the first embodiment of a whip according to the invention in the assembled state.
- a whip 1 according to the invention which may also be referred to as a racket 1 or a brush 1, generally has a whip element 10 or also a whip area 10, which is elongate and elastic and extends from a coupling element 11 or coupling area 11.
- the coupling element 11 has a receptacle which forms a cylindrical space 12 with an inner diameter d, in which a corresponding holder of a slaughtering device (not shown), on which the whip is mounted and inserted, can be accommodated.
- the whip element 10 and the coupling element 11 are designed in two parts and can by means of a first, whip-side connecting element 13, which can also be referred to as a plug-in element 13, and a second, coupling side
- Connecting element 14 which may also be referred to as a plug-in receptacle 14, are connected to each other in such a way that a positive and / or or frictional attachment of the whip element 10 is provided on the coupling element 11.
- FIGS la to lg show a first embodiment of the present invention.
- the plug-in element 13 has two projections 13a, which are spaced apart by a gap 13d.
- the plug-in element 13 at the two laterally outer edges of the projections 13a each have a wedge-shaped guide surface 13c which extends as far as an undercut 13b which forms a surface almost perpendicular to the guide surface 13c.
- the plug-in receptacle 14 has for this purpose two recesses 14a, which are formed in the first embodiment formed in the interior of the coupling element 11 such that the plug-in receptacle 14 can completely receive the plug-in element 13 and thus the contour of the plug element 13 or its projections 13a of the contour the plug receptacle 14 or whose recesses 14a corresponds as closely as possible to ensure a secure and firm hold of the whip element 10 on the coupling element 11.
- the recesses 14a have two receptacles 14b which correspond to the undercuts 13b.
- the guide surfaces 13c correspond to two
- the coupling element 11 has two openings 14d, by means of which the undercuts 13b in the installed state are accessible from the outside such that latching of the undercuts 13b in the receptacles 14b can be canceled again.
- the plug-in element 13 is inserted into the recess 14 by a purely translational movement A.
- the wedge-shaped guide surfaces 13c of the projections 13a first contact the edges of the contact surfaces 14c of the recess 14a. This facilitates insertion.
- the contact surfaces 14c now press laterally on the guide surfaces 13c, so that the projections 13a are laterally compressed in their gap 13d until the plug element 13 is inserted so far that the projections 13a can extend laterally into the receptacles 14b.
- the plug-in element 13 through the undercuts 13b against a Pull out as long as secured until the projections 13a, for example, by a screwdriver through the openings 14d are compressed again so far that the
- the projections 13a are located on the outside and the plug-in receptacle 14 is arranged on the inside.
- the projections 13a are lifted or bent apart by the translational movement A through the contact surfaces 14c to the outside, so that they collapse with their undercuts 13b after complete plugging. Since the projections 13a remain accessible from the outside, can be dispensed with openings 14d.
