aura STATES PATENT FFIE.
WILHELMUS ADRIANUS VAN IBERKEL, OF ROTTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, ASSIGNOR TO U. S. SLICING MACHINE COMPANY, OF LAPORTE, INDIANA, A CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
MEAT-SLICING MACHINE.
Application filed November 1 0 aZZav/zom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VVILIIELMUS AD- RIANUS VAN BERKEL, manufacture-r, a subject of the Queen of the Netherlands, residing at Rotterdam, Prinses Julianalaan 77, Netherlands, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Meat-Slicing Machines, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to a meat slicing machine of the kind in which the meat or the like to be sliced is reciprocated on a horizontal slide alonga circular shaped, vertically positioned knife, rotating about a horizontal axis.
In machines of this kind the rotating knife is driven by a chain running over two chain wheels, which driving mechanism is covered by a vertical column extending outside the machine.
Though in this way the driving means for the knife are suitably built in the machine, the hitherto known construction has the disadv vntage that the space pext to the sliced neat receiving table or the like is almost entirely occupied by the vertical column, which gives rise to various difiiculties.
It has already been proposed to remove this disadvantage by locating the driving chain in a curved hollow arm, the chain being guided over sets of guiding rollers arranged within the saidnarm. This construction, however, is complicated and has the disadvantage that a considerably increased driving power is required, as the endless double bent or curved chaincan only operate satisfactorily, if it is mounted without any slack.
In contradistinction to this construction according to the invention the purpose aimed at is completely attained, without making use of any auxiliary means as e. g. guiding or tension rollers.v
The invention consists in this that the circular knife and its driving chain, running over two chain wheels located perpendicula-rly above each other, is mounted in a vertical plate, provided at the front witha horizontal table which adjoins the table located in front of the slide.
Further, according to the invention the e, 1922. Serial-No. 599,457.
The vertical, circular knife 1 rotating about the axis 2, is driven by the endless chain 3, running over the chain wheels 4 and 5 placed perpendicularly above each other.
The knife 1 and its driving mechanism is mounted in the vertical plate 6, which at the front is provided with a horizontal table 7, adjoining the table? 9 located in front of the slide. At the back of the plate 6 an upstanding sheath 10 is provided, enclosing the driving mechanism of the knife 1.
At one side of the vertical plate 6 is located a broad, forwardly projecting edge 11, extending from the upper to the lower end of the vertical plate 6 and enclosing thehorizontal table 7. At the other side of the vertical plate 6 a guide plate 12 is provided, guiding the meat or the like sliced by the knife 1 to the horizontal tables 7 and 9.
As appears from the drawings, the construction according to the invention has the great advantage that. the space in front of the knife, which space in the hitherto known devices was occupied by the vertical column,becomes almost entirely available for taking up the sliced meat or the like, whereby the efficiency of the machine is considerably increased. The projecting edge 11 forms as it were a recess, in which the largest dishes may be placed. Owing to the chain'wheels for driving the circular knife beinglocated perpendicularly above each other and the endless chain being operated without the use of guiding or tension rollers, the driving of the circular knife requires but a very small exertion of power.
\Vhat I claim as my invention is:
1. In a slicing machine, a rotary knife, a table arranged to reciprocate a: one side of said knife to present material thereto, a
formed by said knife.
3. A slicing machine comprising a disc knife, a bearing for supporting said knife comprising a web positioned adjacent one face of said knife and substantially parallel to the plane thereof, means for driving saith knife interposed between said web and said knife, and a slice receivingtray extending beneath said hearing at the side of said web opposite said knife,
4. A slicing machine comprising a disc knife, a bearing for supporting said knife, driving means for said knife extending downwardly therefrom adjacent one face thereof, a support for said bearing comprising a web having a housing at the side thereof adjacent said knife for containing said driving means, and a brace for said web at the side thereof opposite said housing, said brace being'offset from the vertical center of said knife to provide an open space for receiving slices formed by said knife.
5. A slicing machine comprisingan upright disc-shaped knife, a table arranged to reciprocate adjacent one face of said knife to present material thereto to be sliced, a bearing for supporting said knife, a receiving table for slices extending beneath said hearing at the side of said knife opposite said reciprocating table, and a support for said bearing interposed between said knife and said receiving table.
6. A slicing machine comprising an upright disc knife, a reciprocating table movable adjactnt one face of said knife for presenting material thereto, a bearing for said I knife, areceiving table positioned adjacent said knife opposite said reciprocating table and extending beneath said bearing, a sup port for said knife comprising a web interposed between said knifeand said rtceiving table, said web having a housing at the side, thereof adjacent said knife and extending downwardly from said bearing, and driving mechanism positioned in said housing.
7 A slicing machine comprising an up right disc knife, a reciprocating table movable adjacent one face of said knife for presenting material thereto, a bearing for said knife, a receiving table positioned adjacent said knife opposite said reciprocating table and extending beneath said bearing, a support for said knife comprising a web interposed between said knife and said receiving table, said web having a housing at the side thereof adjacent .said knife and extending downwardly from said bearing, driving mechanism positioned in said housing, and a brace plate connected with said supporting web on the side thereof opposite said knife, said brace plate being offset relative to the vertical center of said knife to provide space for said receiving table.
8. In a slicing machine, a vertically dis poseddise-shaped knife, a bearing for supporting said knife, and a support for said braring comprising a web member arranged substantially parallel with the plane of said knife and extending downwardly from said bearing, said web member being spaced from said knife to provide clearance for driving means directly beneath said hearing, and a bracing member for said web arranged at an angle thereto and offset relative to the vertical center of said knife to provide clearance on the side of said web opposite said knife for receiving slices.
9. A slicing machine comprising a vertically arranged rotary disc knife, a reciprocating table 'movable adjacent one face of said knife for presentingmaterial thereto, a receiving table extending past the vertical center of said knife adjacent the side thereof opposite said reciprocating table, a bearing for said knife, a support for said bearing comprising an upright plate interposed between a portion of said receivingtable and said knife, said plate having a housing at the side thereof adjacent said knife and directly beneath said bearing, driving means for said knife positioned in said housing, and a web for bracing said supporting plate, said web being offset relative to the vertical center of said knife and extending at an angle to said supporting plate, the space between said web and supporting plate being open to accommodate said receiving table and to permit the deposits of slices on sad receiving table below the axis of said knife.
In testimony whereof I affix my signatin'e.
