Bone eliminator discharge regulator

摘要

A device for regulating the discharge of bones and other hard, objectionable material from processed food includes a flow control device contained within a housing applied to the discharge line downstream of a grinding apparatus. The device has a reciprocating valve element having an elongated cylindrical valve head with a groove formed therein at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the valve element. This groove is constantly contacted by the discharge product flow stream in open and closed positions of the valve.
