摘要:
In a method of pressing and processing meat products, in particular frozen and/or partly frozen meat products, preferably fresh meat products and/or bacon, the products are inserted into a pressing chamber of a pressing device and are pressed in the pressing chamber by at least one displaceable contact element, with the contact element being moved by means of a servomotor.

A food press machine that is used to shape food, such as slabs of meat. The machine has a jaw element. The jaw element is free to rotate about a pivot connection along a curved path between a closed position and an open position. A lower mold head is mounted to a base. An upper mold head is mounted to the jaw element. The upper mold head aligns atop the lower mold head and defines a compression chamber when the jaw element is in its closed position. Conversely, the upper mold head is lifted away from the lower mold head when the jaw element is in its open position. Food is placed in the compression chamber when the jaw element is in its open position. The jaw element is than moved to its closed position with the power of a hydraulic piston.

A device for forming portions of food is proposed, comprising a hydraulic press. rne press has at least one hydraulic pressure generator and at least two actuators, wherein each of the actuators comprises a working cylinder and the working cylinders are hydraulically connected. It is preferably provided that a die has at least two separate receptacles for receiving portions of food. The receptacles interact with respective pressing tools, and the pressing tools can in each case be moved by means of an actuator, in particular by means of a pressing ram.

Food processing apparatuses and associated methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a fish processing apparatus includes two sets of the shim magazines on the opposite sides of mold(s) for making food products. Food shuttles alternate in transporting food shims from their corresponding shim magazines to a position under the mold(s). An actuator presses the mold(s) against the food shim to form food products. The force of the mold(s) can be controlled to improve separation of the food products from the food shim. Formed food products fall on a conveyor, which transports them away from the apparatus for further processing.

One example embodiment includes an electric meat drainer for removing FOG from a meat product. The electric meat drainer includes a container. The container is configured to retain a meat product and allow FOG to freely exit the container. The electric meat drainer also includes a press. The press is configured to move relative to the container and apply pressure to the meat product within the container, where the pressure separates FOG from the meat product, allowing the FOG to exit the container. The electric meat drainer further includes a motor, where the motor is configured to move the press relative to the container. The electric meat drainer additionally includes a FOG container, where the FOG container is configured to receive the FOG which exits the container.
摘要:
A food molding mechanism for a patty-forming machine that uses a servomotor to drive a crank arrangement. The crank arrangement drives a mold plate. The mechanism uses a reducer with a replaceable output shaft. The reducer engages a servomotor utilizing a double enveloping worm gear providing gear enmeshment across an arc portion of the servomotor main gear. A servomotor driven knockout apparatus comprises a cam and lever arrangement. Oil reservoirs for the knock-out cams are substantially sealed in the mold cover.

Portioning system (10) includes a conveyor (12) for conveying work products (14) past a scanner (16). A data processor (22) receives the scanning data and generates a thickness and/or volume distribution of the work product. The processor is programmed to determine in advance how the work product may be portioned into a plurality of desired end products, and more specifically how one or more of the end products may be cut and then subsequently sliced without having to re-scan the cut portion. The processor controls a cutting device (18) for portioning the work product under the cutting strategy determined by the processor, and also controls a slicing device (20) for subsequently slicing one or more of the cut portions to achieve a desired thickness per the determined cutting strategy.
摘要:
A semi-continuous meat press includes a frame supporting an upper press pad and a lower press pad, positioned adjacent one another to define an open position and a closed position, the closed position having a selectable, adjustable gap between the pads. Upper and lower flexible belts are interposed between the upper and lower press pads, and serve to convey meat pieces between the press pads for the pressing step. The upper and lower press pads and upper and lower flexible belts are urged together by hydraulic cylinders through a four bar mechanical linkage. The press pads are made of a soft pliable plastic material to allow the meat pieces to sink into the pads and provide space for the pliable plastic material to move around and envelop the thick parts of the meat pieces.

An improved hydraulic system is provided for a reciprocating mold plate, patty-forming apparatus wherein food product is delivered under pressure from a pump cylinder to mold plate cavities. The plunger is driven during a first phase by force from a hydraulic cylinder from a retracted position distant from the pump cylinder to a ready position initially compressing food product loaded into said pump cylinder. Thereafter, the plunger is driven during a second phase by the hydraulic cylinder to load food product under pressure into the mold plate cavities. The hydraulic cylinder is supplied with hydraulic fluid during the first phase by a low pressure hydraulic fluid pump and during the second phase by a high pressure hydraulic fluid pump. According to the invention, the low pressure hydraulic fluid pump and the high pressure hydraulic fluid pump are positioned within a reservoir, at least partially submerged in hydraulic fluid held within the reservoir, during operation. The low pressure hydraulic fluid pump and the high pressure hydraulic fluid pump are connected in series to the drive shaft of an electric motor located outside the reservoir.
