IMPROVEMENT IN MEAT-TENDERERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 183,273, dated October 17,1876; application filed August 22,1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN W. SMITH, of Keokuk, Lee county, Iowa, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tenderers, which is made substantially as set forth hereinafter, referring to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure I is a vertical cross-section of apparatus; Fig. II, a detail of portions of same.
This invention consists in an improved tenderer, having the features hereinafter set forth.
The table A bears a cylinder, B, turned by a hand-crank, G, and a movable table, D, sliding back and forth on ways E, and bearing a cylinder, F, and aprons G H. The cylinder B has cutters I projecting as rings around it at suitable distances. These act upon the material, passing between the two cylinders in the manner of rolling cutters. The cylinder F has a plain wood surface, and teeth K to draw the material between the rollers. The teeth are formed like saw-teeth on strips of steel set into the cylinder longitudinally, so the teeth match with cutters I alternately. The cylinders are connected by pinions at one end, so as to turn together. When the cylinder F is directly under the other the cutters bear on it. so as to cut the material into strips. By moving the table D sidewise, the distance of the cylinders apart can be regulated to any degree required. The aprons G H are suitably inclined. The material to be acted on is placed on apron G and fed between the cylinders.
the cutters I, to clear them as they turn.
It'is received onto apron H, which has a suitable receiving-edge against the cylinder F, with spaces for the teeth to pass. These aprons are re movable for cleaning, &c'.
The standards L bearing the cylinder B bear a rake, M, having te'ethentering between The movable table D is held in any position by setscrew N on one side, and-cam P on the other. The cam bears against a thick, soft rubber cushion, R, which gives elasticity to let the cylinder F spring sidewise, to avoid choking and strain. The apron Gr slides down in and is held by grooves at its edges in the table D, so as to be removable. It has a spring at one side at T to bear on the groove, so as to hold it at a suitable distance from the wheels or rollers, adjustable as they are changed.
I claim- 1. In a tendering-machine, the combination with the feeding-board G and tawie H, the cutting-roll B, having annular cutting-blades I, and the feeding-roll F, having the longi tudinal series of teeth K,-as and for the purpose substantially as set forth.
2. The combination of tables A D, cylinders B F, and tables G H, arranged to act together, substantially as set forth.
