Description: |
| To construct my improved meat - cutter, I make the hollow case A divided horizontally and lengthwise through its center and having on one side the semi-cylindrical projection B parallel with and open into it on the inside. This case A is made with bearings at its ends to receive the shaft C of the cylinder D. The projection or chamber B has also holes made in its ends to receive the rod E, that holds the knives in place. The cylinder D may be made either of one piece, with the studs projecting from its surface, or it may be made of separate stud-plates on a shaft. The improvement in this machine is mainly upon the knives and the parts immediately connected with them. These knives are made with holes in their centers, through which is put the rod E to hold them and allow them to turn around on or with it as the meat is pressed against them by the studs, or by connecting the rod E with the cylinder-shaft by gears or otherwise, making a rolling and drawing cut that will divide the meat easily and thoroughly. The knives may be made round or with more or less sides. (See Figs. 4,5, and G.) As will be readily perceived, these knives present a cutting-edge to the meat whichever way the cylinder D maybe turned, so that if the meat should be stringy and tend to clog the machine by winding around the cylinder by simply reversing the motion of the crank it will be relieved. Between the knives upon the rod E are put space-blocks J J to keep the knives at a proper distance apart, so as to allow the studs to pass between them. It is not necessary that the chamber B should be placed at one side of the case, but it may be put at either side or below it, as maybe found most convenient.
