BLADE CLEANER FOR A CONTINUOUS LOOP BLADE ON A FOOD SLICING MACHINE

摘要

A blade cleaning device for a continuous loop blade food processing machine includes a pair of parallel but offset scrapers (10, 12) that are positioned on, and seated against, opposite sides of the blade (35) for scraping residue from the blade (35) as it passes against the scrapers (10, 12). The scrapers (10, 12) are biased against the blade (35) by springs (30, 32) mounted on scrapers arms (20, 22) that are pivotally mounted on a scraper frame (14). A pipe (40) being in fluid communication with a pump is positioned adjacent at least one of the scrapers (10, 12) to draw waste matter.
