Description

GERMAN

The invention relates to a smoking trolley with tiltably mounted smoking skewers, on which in pairs interconnected sausages are placed. According to the invention, the carriers are the incense skewers attached to endless conveyors automatically tiltable, and the conveyors are in a Smokehouse can be driven with the smoking trolley. Preferably used to drive the endless Funding means a gear pair or the like, one gear of which is fixedly mounted in the smokehouse is and with the gear mounted on the smoking trolley in the retracted position of the smoking trolley comes to the intervention.

It is known per se in the case of incense shafts, the carriers of the incense skewers on endless conveyors to be attached automatically tiltable. When working with such a well-known smoke shaft, this takes Loading and emptying the smoke shaft takes a relatively long time. During this Periods of drying and smoking must be exposed. The sausages are brought up on carts and then have to be reloaded onto the chains that carry the spit-bearers. After drying is complete and smoking, the reverse process takes place: the sausages are from those who carry the skewers Take off the chains and load them onto trolleys, which place the sausages in a refrigerator and then to the Drive packing tables. This two-time reloading requires a considerable amount of work. Through the Invention, the disadvantageous idle times described and the costly reloading are spared.

A smoking trolley is known whose smoking skewers are tiltable. When using this Smoking trolleys do not place the sausages inside the smokehouse during drying and smoking led around and not tilted at the same time. But this wandering around with endless funding is necessary if all sausages are dried and smoked evenly target. When using the known smoking device, it is necessary to hang the sausages repeatedly, especially those at the top, least streaked by the dry air and smoke To hang sausages down, so to swap them for the sausages that are quite heavily treated here. These time-consuming and expensive work is saved by the invention. The invention offers the further advantage that the drive of the endless conveyor only becomes effective when the smoking trolley is complete has entered the smokehouse. This increases accident safety.

According to a further embodiment of the invention, in the retracted position of the smoking trolley, a limited, approximately vertical movement engages the smoking trolley with tiltably mounted
Incense skewers

executing, from the front of the smoker from controllable hook-shaped bolt behind a fixed stop. When the smoker is driven into the smokehouse, the Smoking trolley automatically locked in the operating position. The latch can be accessed from the front of the The smoking trolley can be easily triggered by a foot or hand lever.

According to the invention, the toothing of the toothed wheel mounted on the smoking trolley also engages a ratchet lever mounted in the smokehouse, which swivels when the gear wheel rotates makes that through a linkage on a signal disc located outside the smokehouse be transmitted. This facility enables the proper operation of the smoking facility to be monitored outside the closed smokehouse.

Preferably, said endless conveying means with the smoking skewers form a plurality of and from running strands. This allows a large number of sausages to be treated on a relatively accommodate a small space.

An exemplary embodiment of the subject matter of the invention is shown in the drawing. It shows

Fig. 8 is a plan of Fig. 6 after removing the pair of sausages. The smoking device consists of a chassis 10 with the wheels 13 running in U-shaped rails 11 of the smoking chamber 12 , 22, 23 led. With the shaft 24 of the two toothed pulleys 17, a gear 25 is firmly connected, which can mesh with the gear 26, which is fixedly mounted in the smokehouse and receives its drive from a motor (not shown). It follows that the chains carry out a constant circular movement when the smoking trolley assumes the operating position shown in Fig. 1. In this operating position, the smoking trolley is locked by the pivotable hook 27, which engages behind a stop 28 that is stationary in the smoking chamber. If this latch is to be released, pressure is exerted on the foot lever 29, which transmits its pivoting movement via the rod 30 to the angle lever 31, the outer end of which forms the hook 27 mentioned. The locking device described also forms a backup. If, for whatever reason, the drive resistance of the chains becomes impermissibly high, the gear wheel 26 rotating in the direction of arrow 32 causes the smoking trolley to be lifted and thus the hook 27 to be automatically released at the stop 28, whereupon the smoking trolley moves a little to the right (in Fig. 1 ) and the drive is disengaged. On the pairs of chains are at a distance from each other, which corresponds to the length of the sausages to be smoked. Carrier 33 for incense skewers pivotably mounted. The smoking skewers 34, on which the pairs of sausages are hung, rest in a U-shaped pocket of this carrier. The supports 33 have rollers 35, 36 at their ends. These rollers run in rails 37, 38 arranged parallel to the chains ° to the horizontal. As shown in Fig. 6, with this arrangement of the smoking skewers34 one sausage of each pair of sausages hangs completely free so that it is completely smeared with smoke up to its upper end. When the smoking skewer 34 is pivoted in the manner described below by about 90 ° in relation to the position shown in FIG. that is, the previously freely hanging sausage 39 now rests against one side surface of the smoking skewer 34; on the other hand, the sausage 40 now hangs completely free. The pivoting of the smoking skewers 34 by means of the carrier 33 is achieved in that the rail on the outside has an extension 41 at the guide points of the chains 15. During the movement of the chains, one of the rollers of the carriers 33 gets into this. It is temporarily held in this position, while the bearing point 42 of the carriers 33 on the chain 15 continues to move. This results in the desired tilting movement, which can be seen in Fig. 1 from the comparison of the chain strands going up and down. Fig. 3 and 5 show the signaling device, which also makes the proper operation of the smoking device visible outside the smokehouse. Above the drive gear 25 mounted on the smoking trolley, a ratchet lever 44 is pivotably mounted at 43, which always seeks to engage the toothing of the drive wheel 25 under the action of a spring. When the smoking device is in operation, the ratchet lever 44 therefore constantly performs a reciprocating pivoting movement. This pivoting movement is transmitted via the pull rod 45, the angle lever 47 mounted at 46 and the rod 48 to the angle lever 50 mounted at 46, which ends in a signal disk 51. The back and forth movement of the ratchet lever 44 accordingly results in an up and down movement of the signal disk 51. The smoking device described has proven to be useful in practical operation over a considerable period of time. Pate ν τ λ ν s γ ρ, γ c η ε 1.
