摘要:
A method and apparatus for forming or separating sausage links is disclosed. The apparatus has a series of pairs of forming and cutting arms mounted on a circular plate. The arms are moved into contact with the sausage casing at sequentially spaced points along the length of the casing. As a pair of forming arms contact the casing from opposite sides of the casing, they force the food emulsion within the casing away from the point of contact forming a link end. There is a cutting element at the end of a slot in each arm which cuts the casing between the links when the arms overlap.

An apparatus for separating sausage links is disclosed. The apparatus has a series of pairs (34) of cutting arms (70, 72) mounted on a circular plate (60). The arms are moved into contact with the sausage links (58). As a pair of cutting arms contact the sausage links from opposite sides, they force the links away from the point of contact. There is a cutting element (64) at the end of each arm which cuts the casing between the links when the arms overlap.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for processing stuffed sausage casing to form individual sausages of uniform length is disclosed. The apparatus has a series of pairs of forming arms (34) mounted on a circular plate (32). The arms (34) have on them stabilizers (70). The arms (34) are moved into contact with the sausage casing (58) at sequentially spaced points along the length of the casing (58). As a pair of forming arms (34) contact the casing (58) from opposite sides thereof, they force the food emulsion within the casing (58) away from the point of contact. As the forming arms (34) move further towards one another the stabilizers (70) contact the casing (58) to prevent the casing (58) from moving out of alignment with a slot (56) in each forming arm (34) and to assist in pushing the filling material within the casing (58) in a longitudinal direction away from the forming arms (34).
