Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the mechanical tying of sausages and similar articles, by means of which process important advantages are achieved not only with regard to the mechanisation of the operation but also with regard to the result of the operation itself, i.e. the tying effect achieved.
  • FIG. 1 is a view in horizontal plan across a machine to carry out the method of the invention showing the feed cord, its means and the tray on which the sausages are laid.
  • FIG. 2 is a view in elevation of the embodiment of the machine of FIG. 1, showing the sausage lying in the path of the cord.
  • FIG. 3 is a view in plan of part of the embodiment of FIG. 1. a
  • FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 showing a later stage of the wrapping of the cord about the sausage in which the needle is commencing the return movement to its starting position.
  • FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIGS. 3 and 4 at the moment that the knotting step is completed by the doubled portion of the cord loop being drawn by the hook of the needle.
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the knot produced by the method of manipulation of the invention.
  • FIGURE 1 there is disclosed therein a machine carrying as its fundamental elements a feed means 8, a tray (pan) 9, a pair of implements which are disposed opposite each other and are formed by anchoring means and 11, one of the latter furthermore having a special needle 12.
  • the said feed means 8 is a species of cranked tube which rotates on its axis based on a support 13, the said tube carrying out with every movement a rotation amounting to somewhat more. than one turn or revolution and its travel alternating in one direction and the opposite direction so that during each travel the cord which emerges from the feed means is engaged about the two pairs of anchoring means 10 and 11 with the ends thereof intersecting.
  • the feed means will have started from the position 17 in the direction indicated by the arrow shown in the drawing, engaging the cords successively on the anchoring means 11, 10', 10 and 11, the said ice cord intersecting itself at 18 and the feed means stopping at a point 19 corresponding to the starting point 17 but on the other side of the anchoring means 11.
  • the next movement of the feed means will be in the opposite direction, the cord again being engaged about the anchoring means, forming the same intersection and stopping again at the starting point 17, and so on.
  • the cord 15 forms a loop 16, being doubled on itself on the side opposite the intersection point of the ends 14 and 21.
  • a pincer member 20 and 2G Disposed on each side of the anchoring means 11 and 11 is a pincer member 20 and 2G in which the cord is engaged, and there is furthermore a cut er 22 and 22' respectively.
  • the end 14 of the cord is engaged in one of the said pincer members, i.e. the one designated 20 in FIG- URE 2, whereas the other pincer means, designated 20', is completely open and does not close until, when the travel of the feed means has ended, the other end 21 of the cord 15 comes within its range, at which instant the said second pincer member automatically closes.
  • the advance of the said anchoring means 10 and 10 reaches the point at which the doubled portion of the loop 16 passes beyond the intersection 18 formed by the cord, the anchoring means 10, 10 carrying the said loop passing between the opposite anchoring means 11, 11'; then, the latter ascend, so that the intersection 18 is in a position which is higher than the remainder of the loop.
  • the needle 12 subsequently advances, the upper tongue 7 thereof impinges on the said intersection 18, engaging the latter in its throat 23 and producing the result that, as the advance of the needle is continued, the said tongue completes the lifting of the said intersection 18 as the tongue rocks about its articulation point 24.
  • one of the two cutters 22 and 22 disposed parallel to the pincer members 20 and 20 for retaining the cord cuts the ends thereof emerging from the feed means 8, so that the sausage may be removed, already tied, and a new cycle may be started.
  • the feed means 8 automatically commences a new travel movement due to which the end of the cord is retained by the corresponding pincer member and a further loop is formed wit-h its ends intersecting.
  • the mechanically formed knot (FIGURE 6) has, primarily, the important advantage that the constricting ef- 3 feet thereof does not produce any intersection which could cut the gut.
  • the doubled portion of the loop 16 serves for suspending the sausage without it being necessary to provide any kind of supplementary knot.
  • a method of mechanically tying a sausage casing or the like comprising the steps of forming a cord into a loop, folding the loop over the casing and simultaneously crossing the free ends of the cord forming the loop while holding on to the loop and free ends, the free ends being folded back over the casing between the loop and the casing, passing the doubled loop between the free ends of the cord, reversing the direction of the doubled loop opposite to the knot being formed, leading the doubled loop between the free ends and the casing, then cutting the free ends of the cord; whereby the surrounded portion of the sausage casing is gradually and gently constricted, the knot remaining tight.
