Abstract:
My invention relates to an improvement in that class of rotary meat-cutters in which the meat is cut and then formed into loose strings or ropes, at which time it receives some further cutting, the object being to produce a device in which the number and wear of parts and the friction of operation shall be reduced to the minimum, which shall have a great capacity for work, and be adapted to be readily taken apart and cleaned, and which shall be constructed so that incorrect re-assemblance by the most ignorant user is impossible.
Claim:
The herein described rotary meatcutter comprising three main elements, namely, a case or frame cast in one piece, a combined integral forcer-cutter and former, having the general form and action of a screw, and a handle comprising the handle proper and a retaining screw, the said case being constructed with a circular chamber having its outer end flared outwardly and containing internal spirally arranged grooves and ribs, terminating at their outer ends in the same or substantially the same vertical plane at a point just within the end of the said chamber, and the said screw being constructed with an outwardly flaring outer end to corn form to the outwardly flaring outer end of the said chamber, and having spirally arranged ribs and grooves terminating at their outer ends in the same or substantially the same vertical plane at a point which will be within the outer ends of the ribs and grooves in the said chamber when the parts are assembled and furnished at a point beyond the outer ends of its ribs and grooves with a circular series of forming openings which fall within the range of the outer ends of the io ribs and grooves in the chamber when the cutter is assembled and discharge, and the said handle being applied to the inner end of the screw which projects through the case and which screw is held in place by the said handle and the equalization of endwise thrust upon it. |
