Meat pelletising machine - with feed tube for mash and flexible blades to sweep discharge opening

摘要

An appts. for making pellets or globules from a mash, esp. meat balls from minced meat mash, consists of a tube for feeding the mash, an approx. vertical plate with discharge opening fitted transversely across the end of a sleeve slidably mounted on the tube end, and one or more revolving flexible blades sweeping downwards over this plate to remove the mash as it emerges from the opening. The blade axis is transverse to the tube axis, and the plates extends from the invert of the tube mouth to well above its soffit. The blades are sufficiently flexible to flick the pellets off as they leave the plate.
