MEAT TENDERING IMPLEMENT.

WALTER; MAEcIILEit, or CHICAGO, ILLINoIs, AssIeNoa'ro LEE n. CHICAGO, ILLINoIs.
DANIELS, or
MEAT-TENDERING IMPLEMENT.
I To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VVALTER MAEGHLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at 1821 Berteau avenue, Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Meat- Tendering Implements, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements 1n the class of meat-tenderers in which the implement comprises a handle-equipped head rigidly carrying a plurality of stems iJGIIIllnating in cutting edges for perforating meat to tender it by cutting its fibers.
The object of my invention is to provide a meat-tenderer in the class referred to of a superior construction enhancing its efficiency of operation.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the implement; F 2 is a bottom plan view of the same; Fig- 3 is an enlarged section on line 3-3, Fig. 2; Fig. d is an enlarged broken plan view of the intermediate plate in Fig. 3,.showing the central aperture, and Fig. 5 is an enlar 'ed perspective view of the screw for said aperture; Fig. 6 is an enlarged broken view of one of the plurality of similar cutting stems, showing a preferred form thereof; Fig. 7 is a section on line 7-7, Fig. 6; Fig. 8 is a view like that presented in Fig. but showing a modification, and Fig. 9 is an enlarged broken plan view of the plate in Fig. 8, showing the shape of the perforations therein into which the cutting-stems are driven.
My improved implement comprises, generally described, a cap fitting about one or more numerously perforated head-forming plates, through the perforations in which are driven, to abut at their inner, blunt ends against the inner face of the cap, stems of general cylindrical shape, each beveled on opposite sides of its outer end to form a cutting edge; and a handle is rlgidly secured in place on the cap by a bolt passed centrally through the plate or plates and fastened by a nut. I In the construction most clearly illus' trated in Fig. 3, a plurality of relatively thin numerously perforated plates are employed for the head. Of these plates three are shown at 9, 10 and 11; and the outermost is beveled about its edge. The cap 12,

isspun about the beveled edge'of the plate 11 to conform thereto and provide a shoulder at 18- confining the plates in the cap and sealing the latter against ingress of moisture and foreign matter. To produce a tight fit of the cutter-stems 14, which may be formed of I wire and suitably hardened, each is slightly enlarged is diameter in excess of that of the perforations, at the section 14* which is driven into coincident perforations in the successive plates to become tightly fastened in place therein. The handle 15 is rigidly secured centrally plates and cap, and is fastened by a nut 17 applied through the open handle-base, the slotted head of the boltbeing covered by the plate 11 to shield it against lodgment in the slot of meat, which would tendto render the implement unsanitary. The blunt ends of the cutter-stems abut against the inner face of the cap, and thus have, a rigid stop presented to them. The belt clamps the parts firmly together; and to prevent it from turning in screwing the nut for tightening, the head of the which is countersunk 10 and 9 receiving it, is provided with laterally projecting lugs or Wings 16* to enter recesses 11 in the said bolt-hole in plate 10 for confining the bolt against rotation.
The modified construction illustrated in Figs. 8 and 9 differs from the construction in Fig. 3 plate 18 of substantially the same thickness as that of the described plurality of plates; and since the stem-perforations in a plate of that thickness will not yield as will these in the relatively thin plates, in driving the enlarged sections of the stems 14: through them, they are provided in the elongated or oval form of the perforation 19 shown in Fig. 9, but slightly smaller in diameter than that of the stem-sections 14% whereby the stems are tightened by driving them into place, and are rigidly held against any tendency to rotate in their bearings. The head-forming plate 18 has its edge beveled, like, the plate 11, to adapt the cap to be spun about it and forma shoulder 13, as and for the purposethereof described in connection with F i 8, with which the con- I b Q struction Illustrated In Fig. 8 corresponds to the cap by a bolt 16 passed through the center of thetwo inner bolt, in the hole, in plates in forming the head of a single tendered, thereby perforating the latter and,
cutting up the fibers. The stems pass through the meat without lacerating it, and
the perforations tend to close up when the stems are withdrawn. Thus the meat is rendered tender without bleeding it, as is done by other tendering implements known to me, which hack, cut or maul the meat.
I realize that considerable variation is possible in the details of construction thus specifically shown and described, and I do not intend by illustrating specific embodiments of my invention to be limited thereto; my intention being in the following claims to claim protection upon all the. novelty there may be in my invention as broadly as the state of the art will permit.
I claim- 1. A meat-tendering implement comprising a cap, a plurality of independent head- 'forming plates in the cap having substantially alining openings therein, and cutting-stems having enlargements adapted to enter said openings and to be pressed into engagement with the edges thereof to seat therein.
2. A meat-tendering implement comprising a cap, a plurality of independent headformi-ngplates in the cap having substantially alining cutting-stem receiving-openings therein, certain of said plates having a central bolt-hole formed with lateral recesses, a bolt passing through said bolt-hole and provided with, a winged head fitting in the recessed end or" the bolt-hole, a handle carried by the outer end of said bolt, and cutting-stems adapted to enter the openings in the plates and to be pressed into engagement with the edges thereof to seat therein.
3. A meat-tendering implement compris ing a cup-shaped member forming a cap, a head "forming a closure for said cap and having cutting-stem-receiving openings of oval or elongated form therein, and cutting stems having enlargements slightly larger than said openings and adapted to be driven into the same with their enlargements in engagement with the edges thereof to seat therein, said plate having a bolt-hole, a bolt therein, and a handle carried by the outer end of said bolt.
