Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutting assembly with removable blade for slicing machines or the like.
  • slicing machines are provided with a cutting assembly which comprises a supporting element, constituted by a pulley, which can be actuated with a rotary motion about its own axis, and a blade, generally with a circular profile, which is associated coaxially with the pulley so as to be jointly connected thereto in the rotation about its own axis.
  • the blade can be associated with the pulley in a removable manner so that it can be removed from the pulley during interventions for maintenance and/or for cleaning the machine.
  • the removable assembly between the pulley and the blade is provided by means of a conical coupling.
