摘要:
A meat flattening machine having two vertically stacked rows of non-sharpened edge stainless steel rollers adjacent to one another in an aluminum frame. Each row has at least two and preferably six rollers wherein the top row is spaced further apart from the bottom rows The plural stacked rows allow for the meat to be pulled and stretched between the rollers for flattening the meat. Four screws connect each corner of the stacked rollers to an adjacent corner of the other stacked rollers to allow for the spacing between the stacked rows to be adjustable. Each roller has parallel rows of rectangular ridges having non-sharpened edges. The bottom roller of each stack can have grooves approximately 1/16 inch deep, while the above rollers can have grooves approximately 1/8 inch deep between the rectangular ridges. The frame includes a removable electric motor, stainless steel sprockets and stainless steel chains for rotating the rollers. Removing the motor allows all the remaining components to be inserted into a dishwasher. A removable cover on the frame includes a bump guard for the on and off switch for the motor which prevents the device from being accidentally activated. The cover, the catch tray and the rollers can be stainless steel while the frame can be aluminum. A proximity safety switch can activate the on/off switch only when the cover is on the frame.

A paddle apparatus for supporting a pizza includes a handle portion, a pizza supporting portion having a support surface with an air discharge port, an air source, and an air conduit interconnecting the air source and the air discharge port, so that a quantity of air is supplied by the air source and discharged through the air discharge port to dislodge the pizza from the support surface for removal of the pizza from the apparatus. The air conduit preferably includes a longitudinal passageway in the handle and pizza supporting portions, and opens through the discharge port out of the support surface. The air discharge port preferably includes a hole in the support surface with a disk insert having an opening at its center, the opening having a cross-section which is smaller than the cross-section of the passageway, for accelerating the speed of air delivered through the passageway by reducing the cross-sectional flow area. The passageway preferably includes a longitudinal channel recessed into the lower surface of the handle and pizza supporting portions, the channel having a cross-section which progressively narrows with depth, and a slat member fitted snugly and engagingly into the channel for completing the passageway. The slat member preferably includes a longitudinal groove to widen and round out the passageway. The air source preferably includes a squeeze bulb.
摘要:
A cutting assembly for cutting a meat or food product passing along a path of travel and comprising a blade assembly including a cutting roller having a plurality of cutting blades radially mounted thereon and movable relative to the path of travel. A mating assembly interacts with the plurality of cutting blades to accomplish a multipoint cutting procedure which is facilitated by the concurrent rotation of the cutting roller and cutting blades as well as a linear reciprocal travel thereof transverse to the path of travel. A stabilizing assembly is provided to restrict the dimensional variance of the spacing between the cutting roller and mate roller through which the meat product travels and an ejecting assembly to remove cut portions from between the cutting blades and back onto the path of travel. The cutting assembly preferably includes a modular construction disposal within and removal from an operative position along a processing line associated with the path of travel.

An apparatus for tenderizing, progressively flattening and smoothing food items includes a roller set of substantially parallel rollers arrayed laterally for contacting, mechanically advancing and tenderizing a first side of a food item; and a compressing conveyor belt opposing and spaced apart from the roller set for contacting and advancing a food item second side, the roller set and the compressing conveyor belt converging toward each other to define a gap between the roller set and the conveyor belt tapering from a wider gap end to a narrower gap end for progressively flattening food items fed into the wider gap end; the roller set and the conveyor belt defining a roller set and conveyor belt combination. A second version includes a series two or more opposing compressing conveyor belt pairs having decreasingly coarse outer surface textures.
摘要:
A cutting assembly for cutting a meat or food product passing along a path of travel and comprising a blade roller having a plurality of blades transversely connected thereto in aligned relation to the path of travel. A mate roller, an in-feed roller and an out-feed roller interact with the plurality of blades to assure removal of meat portions from the blade and mate rollers during the cutting procedure. The mate roller comprises a plurality of mate roller sections each separated from one another by a first predetermined space and variably or adjustably positioned along the length of the mate roller by interaction with a stabilizing assembly to accommodate receipt of the blades within the first predetermined spaces during concurrent rotation of the blade and mate rollers. The cutting assembly may include a modular construction disposable within and removable from an operative position along a processing line associated with the path of travel.
摘要:
A meat preparing machine having two vertically stacked columns of two or more non-sharpened edge stainless steel rollers, or of various other materials such as plastic or aluminum, adjacent to one another in an aluminum or stainless steel frame. The stacked rollers are configured to tenderize, flatten, scrape or cut the meat into strips. Four threaded shafts with numbers connect each corner of the stacked rollers to an adjacent corner of the other stacked rollers to allow for the adjustment of the spacing between the stacked rollers. A first conveyor belt with scraper at the end to discharge meat into the first and second columns is mounted adjacent the top of the rollers for feeding the meat into the rollers. A second conveyor belt with scrapers to discharge meat is mounted adjacent the bottom of the rollers for retrieving the prepared meat from the machine. The second conveyor belt has an adjustable, weighted finisher roller with scraper structured to further reduce the thickness and remove any coarse texture in the product. Removing the motor, conveyor belts and rollers allows the remaining components to be submerged in water for cleaning. A removable cover includes a bump guard to prevent the motor start/stop switch from being accidentally activated. Magnetically operated safety switches prevent activation without the cover and top conveyor in place.
