Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and a method for the continuous slicing of products, in particular food products, for example from sausage, ham, cheese or the like.
  • the slicing apparatus in particular slicing apparatus, may preferably be a high-performance slicer.
  • the slicing device comprises at least one slicing unit, in particular with a rotating and / or planetary revolving circular or sickle knife, which separates product slices, and a feeding device for multi-track feeding of products to the slicing unit.
  • the feeding device comprises a loading device, which is also called a loading swing, which is designed to receive at least one product and is adjustable between a loading position and a feed position.
  • the loading device In the loading position, the loading device may in particular be oriented horizontally, while it may be inclined in the feed position and preferably arranged perpendicular to the cutting plane. Furthermore, the slicing device has a discharge device for discharging portions, which in each case comprise at least one separated product slice.
  • Such slicing devices are basically known.
  • a disadvantage of conventional slicing devices is that the loading of new products can cause breaks in the product flow. These interruptions are particularly disadvantageous when the discharge device is followed by a packaging machine. The shorter the products to be sliced, the more frequently new products have to be introduced into the loading device, ie the proportion of interruptions is comparatively high for shorter products. The same applies to the processing of different product because changing the product type requires reloading. Furthermore, due to products of different lengths, a lane-specific requirement may arise during loading. The track-specific loading requirements are difficult, if at all, to record with a higher-order clock.
  • the interruptions in the product flow lead to the use of buffer devices, in particular in the region of the conveying and / or sorting sections, which are connected downstream of the slicing unit.
  • buffer devices By the buffer devices, the total length of a system of supply device, slicing unit and discharge device extended.
  • the size of the plant may be a problem, because the plants are usually operated in foreclosed rooms due to the required hygiene, and possibly complicates the integration into existing processes and plant components.
  • DE 10 2012 109 247 A1 discloses an apparatus and a method for the continuous production of portions. For slicing several food products, a separate track is provided for each food product, along which it is transported in the direction of a knife. Each track is independent of the other tracks from a loading position adjustable in a Zunaturalleton.
  • a disadvantage of this arrangement is the adjustment of the entire track, including the decisive for the exact product feed to the knife conveyor. Over the entire track length, therefore, all technical measures for the autonomous operation of the respective track, both for the feeding and the loading position, must be provided.
  • the conveyor thus extends over the entire track length.
  • each track requires a lifting device.
  • the fulcrum position including recording in the vicinity of the cutting plane in terms of construction costs and accessibility unfavorable, since this results in a distance between the conveyor and the knife.
  • the loading device as a whole between the loading position and the feed position is adjustable.
  • all loading tracks of the loading device can only be adjusted together.
  • Such a loading device is considerably less expensive to produce and maintain than a loading device with individually adjustable loading tracks.
  • the feeding device comprises at least one conveying device which, viewed in the feed direction, is connected downstream of the loading device and has at least two conveying tracks.
  • the number of conveyor tracks is basically arbitrary. For example, if two conveyor tracks are provided, a product is cut in a conveyor track and the other conveyor track is loaded. In the case of more than two conveying tracks, a product can be cut open in at least one conveying track and at least one other conveying track can be loaded.
  • the number of Abzhouspuren the discharge device is basically arbitrary.
  • the number of laxate tracks may correspond to the number of conveyor lanes. This may in particular be the case in a region in which the separated product slices pass through the slicing unit after separation. After a portioning area, in which the separated
  • the number of laxative traces can be reduced in particular by at least one laxation track.
  • at least one laxation track For example, four conveyor tracks and, after a portioning area, three discharge tracks may be provided.
  • portions should also be understood to mean partial portions which, for example, can be brought together to form a common portion by means of a partial portion which originally originates from another conveyor track. This is especially the case when a product in a conveyor lane is no longer sufficient to form a complete portion. The resulting partial portion can then be supplemented for example by product slices or a partial portion from another conveyor track.
  • the conveyor device according to the invention is not identical to the loading device.
  • the conveying device can be arranged or arranged immediately in front of the slicing unit.

It is particularly advantageous if the conveyor as close as possible to the slicing unit, preferably the circular or sickle blade, reaching. This way you can In particular, an end region of the products are kept safe and promoted.
  • the conveying device preferably operates independently of the loading device.
  • the loading device can be adjusted in particular relative to the conveying device between an at least substantially horizontal loading position and an inclined feed position, without influencing the conveying device.
  • the conveyor device itself may preferably be arranged permanently in an oblique or inclined position. In particular, the conveying device is thus permanently in the feed position.

  • the loading device according to the invention which is designed to be pivotable in one piece, supplies all conveyor tracks with the aid of a single lifting or swiveling device. This significantly reduces the construction costs compared to individual track means for a movement in the vertical direction.
  • a new product can thus be loaded into the loading device, while a previous product is fed and cut by the conveying device to a cutting unit.
  • the newly inserted product can be brought into a feed position independently of the other product, so that the new product can be cut as soon as the slicing of the previous product is interrupted on the other conveyor track.
  • At least one product can be permanently cut open. It is thus from the point of view of the slicing unit to a certain extent an improved single-track operation with the aid of a multi-track product feed. This leads to buffer sections being designed to be very short or omitted altogether can. The entire system can therefore be made comparatively compact.
  • Portions can then be formed from the product slices continuously separated from the products, which portions can be fed without interruption in the product flow to a packaging machine.
  • the device according to the invention and the method according to the invention are particularly advantageous especially when slicing foods of different types or short products, since in this case conventional loading times are relatively frequent, the flow thus often being interrupted and having to be evened out with additional measures.

  • parallel side guides are preferably conceivable. Between these, a clarlaib 19 is inserted and then, for example, on a relatively smooth surface of the loading device 12, laterally moved to a requesting conveyor track 22, 26 or moved.
  • a belt-like loading device 12 is conceivable for fixing a food loaf 10 and transversely transporting it.
  • a slicing device according to the invention with feeding device 8, slicing unit 18 and discharge device 34 is shown.
  • the discharge device 34 may comprise portioning and / or control bands, which may be formed in one, two or more tracks. Shown is a two-lane variant, at on the slicing unit 18 a portioning and weighing device 36 follows with separate weighing belts. Also conceivable would be a common weigh belt for both tracks. With the aid of the portioning and weighing device 36, it can be determined, in particular, whether complete product slices and / or portions 38 have been separated, from which portions 38 are formed, or only product slices 40.
  • product slices 40 can subsequently be separated via a downstream separating device 42 , In particular a rocker, are discharged from the product or Portionsstrom. If a rocker is used for the separation of the product chips 40, this can be arranged in an individual discharge track 43.

  • a transverse distributor 48 follows as a distributor device. With the help of the transverse distributor 48, for example, a multi-lane product or portion stream can be combined into a single discharge lane 43.
  • transverse manifold 48 Through the transverse manifold 48, it is possible that a continuous flow to the packaging machine or a transfer point, such as a depositor is maintained.
  • the removal of product chips 40 takes place in the embodiment of FIG. 8 by driving the portioning belt 44 against the actual conveying direction. Due to the split, each track assigned execution of Portionierbandes 44, it is thus possible to dissipate in one lane product Schnitzel 40, while still being cut in another track.
  • a feeder 8 having four parallel tracks is shown.
  • the products 10 are fed and cut in the conveying device 14 of the slicing unit 18. If these products 10 have at least essentially left the area of the loading device 12 and if a product 10 is completely cut open at least in a conveying track 22, 26 and the conveying track 22, 26 is thus empty, the loading device 12 can be adjusted into the loading position in order to reach pick up new product 10 from single-ended belt 32.
