Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Aufschneiden mehrere Lebensmittelriegel , wobei jeder Lebensmittelriegel auf einer Auflage in einer Förderspur in Richtung eines Schneidmessers transportiert wird, das von dem vorderen Ende jedes Lebensmittelriegels Lebensmittelscheiben abtrennt, die dann auf einen Ablagetisch fallen und dort zu einer Portion konfiguriert werden, wobei der Ablagetisch pro Lebensmittelriegel eine Ablagespur aufweisen kann und wobei ein Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel vorgesehen wird, das die Flugbahn und/oder die Form der Scheibe verändert. Des Weiteren betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zum Aufschneiden von Lebensmittelriegeln. The present invention relates to a method for slicing a plurality of food bars, wherein each food bar is transported on a support in a conveying track in the direction of a cutting knife, which separates food slices from the front end of each food bar, which then fall onto a storage table and are configured there to a portion wherein the storage table per food bar may have a storage track and wherein a trajectory changing and / or shaping means is provided, which changes the trajectory and / or the shape of the disc.

Das gattungsgemäße Verfahren ist von sogenannten Hochleistungsaufschneidevorrichtungen bekannt. Bei diesen sogenannten„Slicern" werden stangenförmige oder anders geformte Lebensmittelriegel, beispielsweise Wurst, Käse, Schinken, Rohschinken oder dergleichen mit einer sehr hohen Schneidleistung, beispielsweise bis zu 1 .000 Schnitte pro Minute oder mehr, in Scheiben geschnitten. Dabei werden die Lebensmittelriegel mittels eines geregelten Antriebs durch eine ortsfeste Schneidebene, in der der Schnitt durch ein schnell bewegtes in der Regel rotierendes Schneidmesser erfolgt, transportiert. Die Scheibenstärke ergibt sich aus der Vorschubstrecke des Lebensmittelriegels zwischen zwei Schnitten. Demnach erfolgt bei einer konstanten Schneidmesserdrehgeschwindigkeit die Regelung der Scheibenstärke über die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Lebensmittelriegels. Oftmals werden die abgeschnittenen Scheiben während ihres Flugs, insbesondere bevor sie auf dem Ablagetisch zu einer Portion konfiguriert werden, in ihrer Form verändert, beispielsweise gefaltet. Dabei ist es beim mehrspurigen Aufschneiden in der Vergangenheit, insbesondere bei hohen Drehzahlen des Messers, zu Problemen mit der resultierenden Portion gekommen. The generic method is known from so-called Hochleistungsaufschneidevorrichtungen. In these so-called "slicers" rod-shaped or differently shaped food bars, for example sausage, cheese, ham, raw ham or the like with a very high cutting performance, for example, up to 1, 000 cuts per minute or more, sliced The slice thickness is the result of the feed distance of the food bar between two cuts Often the cut slices are changed in their shape during their flight, in particular before they are configured on the delivery table to a portion, for example folded, whereby it is with the multi-lane A In the past, especially at high speeds of the knife, problems with the resulting portion have occurred.
Es war deshalb die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Verfügung zu stellen, das/die die Nachteile des Standes der Technik nicht aufweist. It was therefore the object of the present invention to provide a method and a device which does not have the disadvantages of the prior art.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe mit einem Verfahren zum Aufschneiden mehrere Lebensmittelriegel, wobei jeder Lebensmittelriegel auf einer Auflage in einer Förderspur in Richtung eines Schneidmessers transportiert wird, das von dem vorderen Ende jedes Lebensmittelriegels Lebensmittelscheiben abtrennt, die dann auf einen Ablagetisch fallen und dort zu einer Portion konfiguriert werden, wobei der Ablagetisch pro Lebensmittelriegel eine Ablagespur aufweisen kann und wobei ein Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel vorgesehen wird, das die Flugbahn und/oder die Form der Scheibe verändert, und wobei das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell vorgesehen und/oder in seiner Form und/oder Lage und/oder Winkelstellung und/oder in seinem Antrieb und/oder in einem Gasvolumenstrom verändert wird. The object is achieved with a method for cutting a plurality of food bars, wherein each food bar is transported on a support in a conveyor track in the direction of a cutting knife that separates food slices from the front end of each food bar, which then fall onto a storage table and configured there to a serving be, wherein the storage table per food bar can have a storage track and wherein a Flugbahnänderungs- and / or Forming means is provided, which changes the trajectory and / or the shape of the disc, and wherein the trajectory changing and / or shaping means provided track individual and / or in its shape and / or position and / or angular position and / or in its drive and / or is changed in a gas volume flow.
Die zu diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung gemachten Ausführungen gelten für die anderen Gegenstände der vorliegenden Erfindung gleichermaßen und umgekehrt. Die Merkmale, die zu diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung offenbart werden, können mit anderen Gegenständen der vorliegenden Erfindung kombiniert werden und umgekehrt. The statements made on this subject of the present invention apply equally to the other objects of the present invention and vice versa. The features disclosed in this subject matter of the present invention may be combined with other objects of the present invention, and vice versa.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass in den jeweiligen Spuren einer Aufschneidevorrichtung unterschiedliche Bedingungen herrschen können, denen beim Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel Rechnung getragen werden muss. Alternativ oder zusätzlich können sich die Aufschneidebedingungen spurindividuell verändern. Diesen Veränderungen kann durch das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren kompensiert werden. Dadurch können beispielsweise Portionen erzeugt werden, die alle dieselbe Länge und/oder Breite aufweisen. Außerdem kann erreicht werden, dass die Portionen eine bestimmte Position auf dem Ablagetisch einnehmen. The present invention is based on the finding that different conditions can prevail in the respective tracks of a slicing device, which must be taken into account in the trajectory change and / or shaping means. Alternatively or additionally, the slicing conditions may change on a track-by-track basis. These changes can be compensated by the method according to the invention. As a result, for example, portions can be produced, which all have the same length and / or width. In addition, it can be achieved that the portions occupy a specific position on the storage table.
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Aufschneiden von mehreren Lebensmittelriegeln in Lebensmittelscheiben. Derartige Lebensmittelriegel, beispielsweise Wurst, Käse oder Schinken haben typischerweise eine Länge zwischen 300 und 3.500 Millimetern. In den Spuren können sich unterschiedliche Lebensmittelriegel befinden, so dass beispielsweise Mischpackungen erzeugt werden können. Aber auch bei gleichen Produkten, können die aufgeschnittenen Lebensmittelriegel unterschiedliche Temperaturen aufweisen. Diese Lebensmittelriegel werden in jeweils eine Förderspur der Aufschneidevorrichtung eingelegt und mittels eines Transportmittels, das in der Regel Teil der Auflage der Lebensmittelriegel und/oder ein Greifer ist, parallel zueinander in Richtung eines rotierenden Schneidmessers kontinuierlich oder intermittierend transportiert. Jeder Lebensmittelriegel kann dabei spurindividuell in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert werden. Bei dem Schneidmesser kann es sich beispielsweise um ein Kreis- oder Sichelmesser handeln. Dieses Schneidmesser trennt zumindest zeitweise gleichzeitig Lebensmittelscheiben von dem vorderen Ende jedes Lebensmittelriegels ab. Die abgetrennten Lebensmittelscheiben fallen auf einen Ablagetisch, auf dem sie zu Portionen zusammengefasst und sodann abtransportiert werden. Dieser Ablagetisch kann eine Ablagespur pro Lebensmittelriegel aufweisen, die individuell antreibbar sein können. Nachdem die Lebensmittelscheiben abgeschnitten worden sind, kommen sie jeweils mit einem Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel in Kontakt, das die Flugbahn der Lebensmittelscheibe und/oder deren Form verändert, beispielsweise faltet. The present invention relates to a method of slicing multiple food bars into food slices. Such food bars, such as sausage, cheese or ham typically have a length between 300 and 3,500 millimeters. In the tracks, different food bars can be, so that, for example, mixed packs can be produced. But even with the same products, the sliced food bars can have different temperatures. These food bars are inserted in each case a conveying track of the slicing device and transported by means of a transport, which is usually part of the support of food bars and / or a gripper, continuously or intermittently parallel to each other in the direction of a rotating cutting blade. Each food bar can be transported individually in the direction of the cutting blade. The cutting blade can be, for example, a circular or sickle blade. At least temporarily, this cutting blade simultaneously separates food slices from the front end of each food bar. The separated food slices fall on a storage table, on which they are combined into portions and then removed. This storage table can have one storage track per food bar, which can be individually driven. After the food slices have been cut off, they each come in contact with a trajectory changing and / or shaping means that changes the trajectory of the food disc and / or its shape, for example, folds.
Erfindungsgemäß ist dieses Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel nun spurindividuell vorgesehen, d.h. dass die Spuren weisen zumindest teilweise unterschiedliche Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel auf. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann das jeweilige Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell in seiner Form und/oder Lage und/oder Winkelstellung verändert werden. Für den Fall, dass das jeweilige Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel ein angetriebenes Mittel, beispielsweise eine angetriebene Welle, ein angetriebenes Band und/oder angetriebene Riemen, aufweist, kann deren Bewegung vorzugsweise spurindividuell eingestellt werden. Gegebenenfalls wird von dem Flugbahnänderungsund/oder Formgebungsmittel ein Gasvolumenstrom erzeugt, der die jeweilige Lebensmittelscheibe in ihrer Flugbahn und/oder Form verändert. Erfindungsgemäß ist dieses Mittel dann so vorgesehen, dass der Gasvolumenstrom spurindividuell eingestellt werden kann. According to the invention, this trajectory changing and / or shaping means is now provided on a track-specific basis, i. that the tracks have at least partially different trajectory changing and / or shaping means. Alternatively or additionally, the respective trajectory changing and / or shaping means can be changed track-individually in its shape and / or position and / or angular position. In the event that the respective flight path changing and / or shaping means comprises a driven means, for example a driven shaft, a driven belt and / or driven belts, their movement can preferably be adjusted in a track-specific manner. Optionally, a gas volume flow is generated by the Flugbahnänderungsund and / or shaping means, which changes the respective food disc in its trajectory and / or shape. According to the invention, this means is then provided in such a way that the gas volume flow can be adjusted in a track-specific manner.
Die Form des jeweiligen Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels kann verändert werden, indem beispielsweise dessen Durchmesser, Krümmungsradius, Länge und/oder Breite verändert wird. The shape of the respective trajectory changing and / or shaping means can be changed, for example by changing its diameter, radius of curvature, length and / or width.
Die Verstellung der Lage des Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels erfolgt in mindestens eine Raumrichtung, vorzugsweise in zwei Raumrichtungen, wobei die Raumrichtungen vorzugsweise senkrecht zueinander vorgesehen sind. The adjustment of the position of the flight path changing and / or shaping means takes place in at least one spatial direction, preferably in two spatial directions, wherein the spatial directions are preferably provided perpendicular to each other.
Bei einer Veränderung der Winkelstellung des jeweiligen Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels wird das jeweilige Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel vorzugsweise um eine oder mehrere Achse(n) oder Welle(n) gedreht. Bei mehreren Achsen/Wellen, sind diese vorzugweise in einem rechten Winkel zueinander vorgesehen. In a change in the angular position of the respective Flugbahnänderungs- and / or shaping means the respective Flugbahnänderungs- and / or shaping means is preferably rotated about one or more axis (s) or shaft (s). For multiple axes / shafts, these are preferably provided at a right angle to each other.
Vorzugsweise weist jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel mindestens ein angetriebenes Element, beispielsweise, eine Welle und/oder ein Endlosband und/oder einen Endlosriemen, auf, das dann spurindividuell gesteuert wird. Die angetriebenen Elemente weisen spurindividuell also beispielsweise unterschiedliche Umdrehungsgeschwindigkeiten auf. Vorzugsweise wird der Querschnitt des Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell verändert. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch erfolgen, dass jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel mindestens zwei relativ zueinander bewegliche Elemente, beispielsweise Rollen aufweist, wobei durch die Veränderung der Lage mindestens eines Elementes des Querschnitts des Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels verändert wird. Preferably, each trajectory changing and / or shaping means at least one driven element, for example, a shaft and / or an endless belt and / or an endless belt, which is then controlled track-individually. The driven elements have track-individual so for example, different rotational speeds. Preferably, the cross section of the trajectory changing and / or shaping means is changed track-individually. This can be done, for example, in that each trajectory changing and / or shaping means has at least two relatively movable elements, for example rollers, wherein changing the position of at least one element of the cross section of the trajectory changing and / or shaping means is changed.
Vorzugsweise teilen sich mehrere Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel einen Antrieb, der wahlweise die Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell verstellt und/oder antreibt. Es ist aber auch möglich, dass jedes Flugbahnänderungsund/oder Formgebungsmittel seinen eigenen Antrieb aufweist. Preferably, a plurality of trajectory changing and / or shaping means share a drive which selectively adjusts and / or drives the trajectory changing and / or shaping means in a track-specific manner. But it is also possible that each trajectory change and / or shaping means has its own drive.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung wird das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell in Abhängigkeit von der Schneidvorrichtung gesteuert. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the trajectory changing and / or shaping means is controlled track-individually as a function of the cutting device.
Die Schneidvorrichtung kann beispielsweise ein Kreis- oder Sichelmesser sein. Werden mehrere Lebensmittelriegel gleichzeitig nebeneinander aufgeschnitten, dann sind die auf den jeweiligen Lebensmittelriegel einwirkenden Kräfte unterschiedlich. Dies kann durch das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren kompensiert werden. Diese Kräfte können sich bei Veränderung der Drehzahl des Messers, einem Messerwechsel und/oder einer Verstellung der Position der Drehachse des Messers verändern. Dementsprechend werden dann auch die Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell verändert. The cutting device may be, for example, a circular or sickle blade. If several food bars cut simultaneously next to each other, then the forces acting on the respective food bar forces are different. This can be compensated by the method according to the invention. These forces can change with changing the speed of the blade, a blade change and / or an adjustment of the position of the axis of rotation of the blade. Accordingly, the trajectory changing and / or shaping means are then also changed individually.
Weiterhin kann die Art des Lebensmittelriegels von Spur zu Spur unterschiedlich sein. Beispielsweise kann in einer Spur Wurst und in der anderen Spur Käse und/oder es können zwei oder mehrere unterschiedliche Sorten Wurst oder Käse aufgeschnitten werden. Die spurindividuell vorgesehenen Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel können diesen Spurunterschieden Rechnung tragen. Furthermore, the type of food bar may vary from track to track. For example, in one track sausage and in the other track cheese and / or it can be cut two or more different types of sausage or cheese. The trajectory change and / or shaping means provided on the track can take account of these track differences.
Auch die spurindividuelle Lage eines Lebensmittelriegels vor dessen Aufschnitt, beispielsweise relativ zur Drehachse des Schneidmessers kann durch das erfindungsgemäße spurindividuelle Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel kompensiert werden. The track-individual position of a food bar before its slicing, for example relative to the axis of rotation of the cutting blade can be compensated by the inventive track-individual Flugbahnänderungs- and / or shaping means.
Des Weiteren wird gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführung eine Eigenschaft des Lebensmittelriegels, beispielsweise dessen Durchmesser, insbesondere lokaler Durchmesser, dessen Dichte, insbesondere lokale Dichte, und/oder dessen Temperatur, insbesondere lokale Temperatur spurindividuell gemessen und das nachgeordnete Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel entsprechend gesteuert.

Die zu diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung gemachten Ausführungen gelten für die anderen Gegenstände der vorliegenden Erfindung gleichermaßen und umgekehrt. Die Merkmale, die zu diesem Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung offenbart werden, können mit anderen Gegenständen der vorliegenden Erfindung kombiniert werden und umgekehrt. The statements made on this subject of the present invention apply equally to the other objects of the present invention and vice versa. The features disclosed in this subject matter of the present invention may be combined with other objects of the present invention, and vice versa.
Dieser Gegenstand der vorliegenden Vorrichtung zum Aufschneiden von mehreren Lebensmittelriegeln, bei dem die Lebensmittelriege jeweils entlang einer Förderspur in Richtung einer Schneidvorrichtung und dort Scheiben geschnitten werden. Die abgeschnittenen Scheiben fallen auf eine Ablage, wobei deren Flugkurve und/oder deren Form durch ein Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel verändert wird. Erfindungsgemäß ist jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell vorgesehen, d.h. es kann unabhängig von den Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmitteln in den anderen Spuren beispielsweise in seiner Lage, seiner Winkelstellung, in seiner Form und/oder in seinem Antrieb verändert werden. Für den Fall, dass ein Gasvolumenstrom aus dem jeweiligen Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel austritt, kann dieser auch spurindividuell eingestellt werden. This article of the present device for slicing a plurality of food bars, in which the food wars each along a conveyor track in the direction of a cutting device and slices are cut there. The cut slices fall onto a shelf, the trajectory and / or shape of which is changed by a trajectory changing and / or shaping means. According to the invention, each trajectory changing and / or shaping means is provided on a track-specific basis, ie it can be independent of the trajectory change and / or Shaping means are changed in the other tracks, for example in its position, its angular position, in its shape and / or in its drive. In the event that a gas volume flow emerges from the respective flight path changing and / or shaping means, this can also be adjusted track-individually.
Vorzugsweise weist die Vorrichtung mindestens einen Sensor auf, dessen Signal dazu verwendet wird die Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel zu steuern. Beispielsweise ist der Sensor eine Kamera, die die Anschnittfläche jedes Riegels, die gleichzeitig aufgeschnitten werden aufnimmt und beispielsweise auf ihren Fettanteil bei Wurst oder Schinken und/oder ihren Lochanteil bei Käse untersucht und/oder die Querschnittsfläche ermittelt. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann ein Temperatursensor vorhanden sein, der die Temperatur, insbesondere die lokale Temperatur, jedes Lebensmittelriegels ermittelt, der aufgeschnitten wird. Die so ermittelten Daten werden zur Einstellung des jeweiligen Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels eingesetzt, indem beispielsweise dessen Lage und/oder Form und/oder Rotationsgeschwindigkeit eines Transportbandes und/oder einer Faltwelle verändert wird. Diese Veränderung der Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel kann lebensmittelscheibenweise erfolgen. Es ist aber auch denkbar, dass die Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel nur verändert werden, wenn beispielsweise die Drehzahl und/oder die Position des Schneidmessers verändert wird und/oder bei einem Chargenwechsel. Immer werden jedoch die einzelnen Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel spurindividuell an die jeweilige Situation angepasst. Preferably, the device comprises at least one sensor whose signal is used to control the trajectory traveling and / or shaping means. By way of example, the sensor is a camera which records the leading edge of each bar, which is cut open at the same time, and examines, for example, its fat content in sausage or ham and / or its proportion of cheese and / or the cross-sectional area. Alternatively or additionally, a temperature sensor can be present which determines the temperature, in particular the local temperature, of each food bar which is cut open. The data thus determined are used to set the respective trajectory changing and / or shaping means, for example by changing its position and / or shape and / or rotational speed of a conveyor belt and / or a folding shaft. This change in the trajectory changing and / or shaping means can take place on food slice. However, it is also conceivable that the trajectory changing and / or shaping means are only changed if, for example, the rotational speed and / or the position of the cutting blade is changed and / or during a batch change. However, the individual trajectory changing and / or shaping means are always adapted individually to the respective situation.
Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand der Figuren 1 - 3 erläutert. Diese Erläuterungen sind lediglich beispielhaft und schränken den allgemeinen Erfindungsgedanken nicht ein. Die Erläuterungen gelten für die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung und das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren gleichermaßen. The invention is explained below with reference to FIGS. 1-3. These explanations are merely exemplary and do not limit the general inventive concept. The explanations apply equally to the device according to the invention and to the method according to the invention.

Figur 1 zeigt eine Aufschneidevorrichtung 5. Die Aufschneidevorrichtung 5 weist eine Schneidvorrichtung 1 1 , hier ein Schneidmesser 1 1 , auf, das ein Lebensmittelprodukt 2 in Lebensmittelscheiben 12, 12' schneidet. Dazu wird jedes Lebensmittelprodukt 2 mit einem Fördermittel 4, hier zwei Förderbändern 4, kontinuierlich oder intermittierend in Richtung der Schneidebene 6 des Messers 1 1 transportiert. Das untere Förderband 4 ist gleichzeitig eine Produktauflage. Das Schneidmesser 1 1 ist an einer sich drehenden Messeraufnahme 3 befestigt und wirkt vorzugsweise mit einer Schneidkante schneidend zusammen, die beispielsweise am vorderen Ende einer Produktauflage 4 vorgesehen ist und die vorzugsweise gemeinsam die Schneidebene definieren. Zwischen dem Messer 1 1 und der Schneidkante ist ein sogenannter Schneidspalt vorhanden, der möglichst klein sein sollte, jedoch so groß sein muss, dass das Messer die Schneidkante nicht berührt. Dieser Spalt muss regelmäßig eingestellt werden. Dies kann durch eine Bewegung des Messers und/oder der Schneidkante erfolgen. Nach dem Abschneiden fallen die Lebensmittelscheiben auf einen Ablagetisch 1 , der mit Transportmitteln, beispielsweise einem Transportband oder Transportriemen, versehen ist, auf dem sie zu jeweils einer Portion 14, hier einem Stapel, konfiguriert werden. Die fertiggestellten Portionen 14 werden sodann aus dem Schneidmesserbereich abtransportiert und danach beispielsweise verpackt. Die Scheibenstärke ergibt sich aus der Vorschubstrecke des Lebensmittelproduktes zwischen zwei Schnitten. Bei konstanter Messerdrehgeschwindigkeit erfolgt die Regelung der Scheibenstärke über die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Lebensmittelproduktes. Erfindungsgemäß ist die Aufschneidevorrichtung so vorgesehen, dass zumindest zeitweise mehrere Lebensmittelriegel gleichzeitig aufgeschnitten werden. Diese Lebensmittelriegel können gleich oder unterschiedlich sein. Dafür wird jeder Lebensmittelriegel entlang einer Transporttrasse in Richtung des Schneidmessers transportiert. Dieser Transport kann für jede Trasse/Spur individuell erfolgen. Die Aufschneidevorrichtung kann pro Vorschubtrasse einen Greifer aufweisen, der das rückwärtige Ende 13 des Lebensmittelproduktes 2 vor oder während des Aufschneidens ergreift und dieses während des Aufschneidens, insbesondere gegen Ende des Aufschneidens, stabilisiert und das Endstück, das nicht aufgeschnitten werden kann, entsorgt. Jeder Greifer ist vorzugsweise an einem Greiferwagen (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen, der die Greifer, insbesondere parallel zur Vorschubrichtung des Lebensmittelprodukts, vor- und zurückbewegt. 1 shows a slicing device 5. The slicing device 5 has a cutting device 1 1, here a cutting blade 1 1, which cuts a food product 2 into food slices 12, 12 ' . For this purpose, each food product 2 is transported with a conveying means 4, here two conveyor belts 4, continuously or intermittently in the direction of the cutting plane 6 of the knife 11. The lower conveyor belt 4 is simultaneously a Product support. The cutting blade 1 1 is attached to a rotating blade holder 3 and preferably cooperates with a cutting edge cutting, which is provided for example at the front end of a product support 4 and preferably together define the cutting plane. Between the knife 1 1 and the cutting edge a so-called cutting gap is present, which should be as small as possible, but must be so large that the knife does not touch the cutting edge. This gap must be adjusted regularly. This can be done by a movement of the knife and / or the cutting edge. After cutting the food slices fall on a storage table 1, which is provided with means of transport, such as a conveyor belt or conveyor belt, on which they are each configured to a portion 14, here a stack. The finished portions 14 are then removed from the cutting blade area and then packed, for example. The slice thickness results from the feed distance of the food product between two cuts. At constant blade rotation speed, the regulation of the slice thickness is carried out via the feed rate of the food product. According to the invention, the slicing device is provided so that at least at times several food bars are cut open at the same time. These food bars may be the same or different. For this, each food bar is transported along a transport route in the direction of the cutting blade. This transport can be done individually for each route / lane. The slicing device may have a gripper per feed path, which grips the rear end 13 of the food product 2 before or during slicing and this during slicing, in particular towards the end of the slicing, stabilized and the tail, which can not be cut, disposed of. Each gripper is preferably provided on a gripper carriage (not shown), which moves the grippers, in particular parallel to the feed direction of the food product, back and forth.
Figur 2 zeigt eine Draufsicht der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung. In dem vorliegenden Fall werden drei Lebensmittelriegel 2 gleichzeitig aufgeschnitten, die sich jeweils in einer Spur 8 - 10 befinden. In dieser Spur werden sie in Richtung des sich drehenden Schneidmessers 1 1 transportiert, das von dem vorderen Ende jedes Lebensmittelriegels 2 eine Scheibe abtrennt. Diese Scheibe fällt dann in Richtung einer Ablage 1 , auf der die Scheiben für eine Portion in jeder Ablagespur 16 - 18 gesammelt werden. Beim Fallen und/oder bevor und/oder nachdem die jeweilige Scheibe vollständig auf der Auflage liegt, kommt sie und/oder ist sie mit einem Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 in Kontakt, das die Flugbahn der jeweiligen Lebensmittelscheibe und/oder deren Form verändert. Erfindungsgemäß kann nun jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel in jeder Spur individuell, d.h. unabhängig von den anderen Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmitteln in den anderen Spuren verstellt werden. Beispielweise kann das Flugbahnanderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel in seiner vertikalen und/oder horizontalen Position oder in seiner Winkelstellung verändert werden. Beispielsweise sind alle drei Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 an einer Halterung 7 vorgesehen, um die sie beispielsweise spurindividuell gedreht werden können, so dass ihre jeweilige Winkelstellung eingestellt werden kann. Vorzugsweise wird die Stellung des Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels in jeder Spur so eingestellt, dass jede Portion 14 in der jeweiligen Ablagespur 16- 18 eine gewünschte Position einnimmt. Alternativ oder zusätzlich wird jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel so eingestellt, dass alle Portionen 14 in allen Ablagespuren 16 - 18 dieselbe Länge und/oder dieselbe Breite aufweisen. Figure 2 shows a plan view of the device according to the invention. In the present case three food bars 2 are cut simultaneously, each located in a lane 8-10. In this track, they are transported in the direction of the rotating cutting blade 1 1, which separates a disc from the front end of each food bar 2. This disc then falls towards a tray 1 on which the slices are collected for one serving in each tray track 16-18. When falling and / or before and / or after the respective disc is completely on the support, it comes and / or it is in contact with a flight path changing and / or shaping means 6, which changes the trajectory of the respective food disc and / or its shape , According to the invention, each trajectory changing and / or shaping means can now be used in each Track individually, ie be adjusted independently of the other Flugbahnanderungs- and / or shaping means in the other tracks. For example, the trajectory moving and / or shaping means can be changed in its vertical and / or horizontal position or in its angular position. For example, all three Flugbahnänderungs- and / or shaping means 6 are provided on a holder 7 by which they can be rotated, for example, track individual, so that their respective angular position can be adjusted. Preferably, the position of the trajectory changing and / or shaping means in each track is adjusted so that each portion 14 occupies a desired position in the respective storage track 16-18. Alternatively or additionally, each trajectory changing and / or shaping means is adjusted so that all portions 14 in all storage tracks 16-18 have the same length and / or the same width.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Ablage 1 in mehrere Ablagespuren 16 - 18 geteilt, die jeweils ein Fördermittel, beispielsweise ein Förderband oder mehrere Förderriemen, aufweisen. Vorzugsweise sind diese Fördermittel spurindividuell antriebbar. Die Bewegung dieser Fördermittel kann dazu eingesetzt werden eine gewünschte Portion, insbesondere eine gewünschte Portionslänge zu erhalten. According to a preferred embodiment, the tray 1 is divided into a plurality of storage tracks 16-18, each having a conveying means, for example a conveyor belt or a plurality of conveyor belts. Preferably, these funds are individually driven track. The movement of these conveying means can be used to obtain a desired portion, in particular a desired portion length.
Figur 3 zeigt Details eines Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels 6. Dieses ist an einer Halterung 7 vorgesehen, die wie durch die beiden Doppelpfeile dargestellt in zwei Raumrichtung, die hier senkrecht aufeinander stehen, angeordnet sind. Außerdem kann das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 noch wahlweise zusätzlich oder alternativ zu der Verstellung in die zwei Raumrichtung gedreht, insbesondere um die Halterung 7 gedreht werden. Vorzugsweise ist das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 in seiner Form veränderbar, indem beispielsweise sein Krümmungsradius und/oder Ausdehnung entlang der Vertikalen und/oder Horizontalen verändert wird. Dafür weist das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 in dem vorliegenden Fall mehrere Elemente 15, hier Rollen, auf, die in ihrer Lage relativ zueinander und/oder relativ Rahmen der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung veränderbar vorgesehen sind, wodurch sich die Form des Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittels ändert. FIG. 3 shows details of a flight path changing and / or shaping means 6. This is provided on a holder 7, which are arranged as shown by the two double arrows in two spatial direction, which are perpendicular to each other here. In addition, the trajectory changing and / or shaping means 6 can still optionally alternatively or alternatively to the adjustment rotated in the two spatial direction, in particular rotated about the holder 7. Preferably, the trajectory changing and / or shaping means 6 is variable in shape, for example, by its radius of curvature and / or expansion along the vertical and / or horizontal is changed. For this, the Flugbahnänderungs- and / or shaping means 6 in the present case, a plurality of elements 15, here rollers, which are provided in their position relative to each other and / or relatively frame of the device according to the invention changeable, whereby the shape of the trajectory change and / or shaping agent changes.
Vorzugsweise weist jedes Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel 6 ein Transportmittel, beispielsweise einen Transportriemen und/oder eine angetriebene Welle auf. Dieses Transportmittel bewegt sich während es mit der jeweiligen Lebensmittelscheibe in Kontakt ist und verändert dadurch deren Flugkurve und/oder Form. In dem vorliegenden Fall weist das Flugbahnänderungs- und/oder Formgebungsmittel eine angetriebene Welle und drei Umlenkrollen auf, um die das Transportmittel 15 wie durch den Pfeil dargestellt, hier im Uhrzeigersinn umläuft. Vorzugsweise ist der Antrieb dieses Transportmittels so vorgesehen, dass die Bewegung des Transportmittels spurindividuell einstellbar ist. Each flight path changing and / or shaping device 6 preferably has a transport means, for example a transport belt and / or a driven shaft. This means of transport moves while it is in contact with the respective food disc and thereby changes their flight curve and / or shape. In the present case, the trajectory changing and / or shaping means comprises a driven shaft and three pulleys, around which the transport means 15 as shown by the arrow, here in a clockwise direction. Preferably, the drive of this means of transport is provided so that the movement of the means of transport is adjustable track individually.
Die Umlenkrollen können aber auch in und/oder gegen den Uhrzeigersinn drehbar vorgesehen sein. Bei mehreren Rollen kann es sinnvoll sein, dass diese zumindest zeitweise unterschiedliche Drehrichtungen aufweisen und/oder eine sich dreht, während die andere stillsteht. The pulleys may also be rotatably provided in and / or counterclockwise. In the case of several rollers, it may be useful for them to have different directions of rotation at least at times and / or one to rotate while the other is stationary.
