摘要:
A method and apparatus for crimping sausage links and ends are described. The apparatus consists of two spaced crimping devices (1), each crimping device having a pair of crimping arms (3, 4) with each of said crimping arms (3, 4) having a pair of inwardly directed crimping fingers (9, 10). The crimping fingers (9, 10) have inner surfaces (11, 15, 16, 17) which, in a first position, when the arms are separated, define a passageway through the device for receiving and supporting the filler casing. The apparatus includes fillers (5, 6) coupled to each of the pair of arms which are coupled to actuating mechanisms which act on both pairs of arms substantially simultaneously to urge the arms (3, 4) towards each other to close the passageway and crimp the filler casing and at the same time the passageways of the adjacent crimping devices are displaced radially inwards causing the filler casing between the arms to be shortened axially in length as it is being crimped.

The machine comprises a rotary drum (8) provided with a circumferential series of twisting and cutting parts (10, 11, 19) arranged along generatrices of the drum. The twisting parts are composed of pairs of male-female pliers (10, 11) made to translate relatively between an open position and a closed position and with partially telescoping of the same. The cutting parts (19) are composed of sliding knives normally housed in corresponding recesses (23) of one of the pliers (10, 11) and which can be driven to project therefrom to cut the continuous sausage when the pliers (10, 11) are in the closed position.

The machine comprises a rotating drum (29) endowed with a circumferential succession of squeezing members (38) arranged along generators of the drum. The squeezing members consist of pairs of pincers (38) urged in relative translation between an open position and a closed position for the formation of sausages (23) connected by narrow appendices (59). There is provided a circumferential succession of pairs of twisting rollers (55) interpolated with the squeezing members (38) and operated to engage the sheaths (34) of the sausages (23) already formed so as to cause alternatively opposed torsions of the sheaths themselves for their corresponding twisting at said appendices (59). There can be provided shearing members (40) associated with the squeezing pincers (38) and operated, with pincers closed, to perform the shear of the appendices (59) for the separation of the sausages (23).
摘要:
Apparatus for the separation of sausages from a string by a scissor structure moving with the string, of which structure the scissors (5, 6) constrict and separate the string. In the zone of separation of the sausages these are present on a stationary inclined guide surface (10), leading to a moving conveying surface (12). Above the guide surface (10) and to the sides of the sausages blowing means (15) are provided, blowing air from the side onto the sausages, so that they are displaced sideways on the guide surface (10) directly at separation from the string. Thus, the sausages form rows one to the side of the other on the conveying surface (12), in which either exclusively blowing takes place, alternatingly to one and the other side, or there is no blowing for each third sausage from the string, so that either two or three rows can be formed.
