In a general slicing operation, the operation of directly receiving sliced meat pieces 30 one by one by hand and arranging them on a tray is repeated. Long like meat (2
When the meat chunk 31 is sliced, as the reciprocating speed of the meat box 6 is increased, the force of the meat piece 30 moving toward the round blade base 2 increases, and as shown in FIG. Since the direction changes from the direction B to the direction C, when the meat piece 30 is received by hand, the hand or the meat piece 30 hits the surface A of the round blade base 2 and cannot be received in a state where the meat piece 30 is elongated.

Therefore, when slicing a long piece of meat 30, during the slicing operation, the piece of meat 30 received by hand is not placed on the tray, but is temporarily put on the tray, and after the slicing operation is completed, the meat piece 30 is elongated. The work of arranging on a tray had to be performed, and the slicing work efficiency was extremely poor.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, it is conceivable to move the round blade motor 3 in the lateral direction to widen the dimension L, but in this case, the position of the center of gravity becomes high and the body starts to move. It cannot be adopted because there is a problem that the size of the machine is large, the product installation space is large, and the work space is small.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, to increase the size of the flesh, and to improve the workability of receiving a piece of meat especially when the reciprocating speed of a long meat or a meat box such as loose meat is fast. It is to improve.
