DEVICE AND KIT FOR CUTTING A FLAT FOOD PRODUCT TRANSVERSE TO A CONVEYANCE DIRECTION

摘要

A transverse cutting roller 1 for the transverse cutting of a flat product moving in a transport direction, in particular a viscous foodstuff, such as industrially produced cheese 14, wherein a transverse cutting blade 3, which bridges the product, which is intended to be cut, transversely to the transport direction, is held on a carrier shaft 2 by a plurality of axially spaced blade carriers 4 mounted on the carrier shaft 2, wherein each blade carrier has at least one carrier element 7, which extends radially outward with respect to the rotational axis A of the carrier shaft 2 when the blade carrier 4 is installed, wherein provided on the outer end of each carrier element 7 is a blade attachment section 5, on which the strip-type blade is detachably attached so as to be radially spaced from the carrier shaft 2.

1. A transverse cutting roller (1) for cutting a flat food product transverse to a transport direction comprising a carrier shaft (2) rotatable about a rotational axis (A), at least one transverse cutting blade (3) and a plurality of blade carriers (4), wherein each transverse cutting blade (3) is held on the carrier shaft (2) by the plurality of blade carriers for cutting a flat product transversely to a direction of transport,wherein
each blade carrier (4) has an opening adapted for passage of the carrier shaft (2) through the blade carrier (4), the plurality of blade carriers (4) are mounted on the carrier shaft (2) at axially spaced apart locations relative to each other, each blade carrier (4) comprises at least one carrier element (7) extending radially outward with respect to the rotational axis (A) of the carrier shaft (2), wherein the outer end of each carrier element (7) comprises a blade attachment section (5) adapted for detachably attaching the transverse cutting blade at a location which is radially spaced from the carrier shaft (2) and each blade carrier (4) is pivotable about the rotational axis (A) of the carrier shaft and further comprises a fixing device for selectively affixing the blade carrier (4) to the carrier shaft to prevent rotation of the blade carrier relative to the carrier shaft (2) for selectively fixing the position of the transverse cutting blades mounted on the blade carrier relative to the carrier shaft.
