    摘要: A loaf reload mechanism for a slicing machine (50) that includes a loaf-loading position in which a loaf is placed during a loading operation. During loading, a gripper (151) moves from a home position clear of the loaf to an engagement position wherein the gripper engages a trailing end of the loaf. During a slicing operation, the gripper moves with the loaf along a longitudinal path into a slicing plane of a slicing blade (149) until the loaf is effectively entirely sliced. The loaf reload mechanism includes a loaf-staging position over the loaf-loading position, the loaf-staging position having a lowering mechanism (602, 604, 606, 612, 614, 616) to position the loaf from the loaf-staging position to the loaf-loading position. The reload mechanism also includes a loaf-ready position laterally adjacent to the loaf-staging position and a sweep mechanism (153) to laterally move the loaf from the loaf-ready position into the loaf-staging position.

    摘要: A conveying surface (216) for a slicing apparatus (50) that can be moved in two orthogonal directions in a coordinated manner to allow a depositing of slices in a pattern on the conveying surface. The conveying surface can be an endless belt conveyor (130) circulated in the longitudinal direction by a servo-motor (224) via a telescopic drive shaft (270) and shifted in the lateral direction by servo-motor (304) driving a crank arm mechanism (320).

    摘要: A control for a continuously moving weighing conveyor first triggers on a predetermined sensed weight (104). The control determines a first inflection point on the weight waveform defined as the 'maximum positive slope' (106). Then the control begins recording weight samples at a sampling rate. The control checks the weight waveform of sampled weights for a slope which is a first pre-selected percentage of the maximum slope but negative in slope value 'weight-off-scale' point (110). The control then looks backward through the recorded data of weight samples to find another point which has a slope which is a second preselected negative percentage of the maximum positive slope 'end sample position'(114). Then a 'start sample position' (118) is determined to fall within, or at the start of, a flat region of the waveform. The values within the sample period are then averaged to determine a static weight.

    摘要: A stand-alone takeaway and correction conveyor system for a food loaf slicer or other food product machine that produces groups of food products that must be held to close tolerance as to weight or some other readily measurable characteristic includes two conveyors, one for reject groups and one for acceptable groups. The two conveyors are mounted on one base, in spaced parallel relation to each other, with the reject conveyor above the accept conveyor. Both conveyors are driven, at related speeds, from one drive; the drive is mounted in the base and is energized and controlled, as to speed, from the food product machine. The conveyor for acceptable groups has a pivotal outboard section to allow for service of packaging equipment without moving the system. Both conveyors have eccentric mounts to compensate for large elevation differences in packaging equipment. A correction tray is used for correction of reject groups of food products. Controls on the base enable an operator to stop the food product machine and the conveyors and to jog the reject conveyor.

    摘要: A food product forming machine comprising, a food supply configured to contain food mass, a positive displacement pump connected to the food supply and configured to pump food mass at a pressure, a molding mechanism having a mold plate, the mold plate including a cavity and being reciprocated by a mold plate drive between a cavity fill position and a cavity discharge position, and a manifold including an inlet and an outlet, wherein the manifold is configured to receive food mass from the positive displacement pump through the inlet and food mass is configured to pass through the outlet toward the mold plate for filling the cavity of the mold plate, wherein the manifold has a truncated triangular cross-section.
