  • Patent number: 7740526
    Abstract: A device for producing meat products by stuffing meat mass in a double casing made up of a film and a net, has a stuffing tube with a diameter, a mechanism for passing the meat mass through the stuffing tube and into the double casing and a mechanism for shaping the film into a cylinder that is adapted to the diameter of the stuffing tube, the shaping mechanism forming longitudinal folds for allowing radial expansion of the cylinder when the cylinder is fed with meat mass through the stuffing tube by unfolding the folds.

  • Patent number: 7662029
    Abstract: Employed in a casing applicator (13) for stuffing of meat products which is mounted on a stuffing tube (3) through which the meat mass is displaced coming from a stuffing machine (4) toward a clipping device (5), a supporting tube (2) through which a casing (1) travels, it consists of a pair of unshirring wheels (8) which pull the previously shined casing (1) on the supporting tube (2) taking it to the end of the supporting tube (2), being complemented with a ring (9) on the external surface of which the casing slides, incorporating a robot (12) which controls the speed and working of the servo-motors associated with the unshirring wheels and actuates the pneumatic cylinders for positioning the wheels on the casing.

  • Patent number: 7494405
    Abstract: Based on a conventional installation including a stuffing-portioning machine (1) and a fast clipper (2), duly synchronised, between which is established a shaping device (3) that converts the film (5) meant to wrap food products that is supplied in the form of a coil into a tubular element that can be coupled to the stuffing tube (3), on which is coaxially mounted a second tube (8) bearing an external casing (9) based on a tubular net, the invention consists of using tubes (4) and (8) with a small diameter, much smaller than that of the finished product, so that the film (5) is adapted to the tube (4) after the former is profusely folded longitudinally, while the small diameter of the tube (8) allows the multilayer shirring of the tubular net (9), using the pressure provided by the pumping system of the stuffing machine (1) to achieve the radial expansion of the film (5) and the tubular net (9) to obtain the final diameter of the finished product, which will vary according to the speed with which it is separa

  • Publication number: 20050281924
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and means which are used to obtain a multi-layer arrangement of a tubular net (6) which is first positioned on a transfer tube (3). According to the invention, a toothed loader (5) is used to slide the net (6) along the outside of the transfer tube (3) to the end thereof, said end comprising a slightly conical end zone (4). When the net (6?) reaches said end zone (4), it falls on to the support tube (1) in an arrangement of concentric layers (6?). In this way, the outer layers of the loaded net (6?) have a maximum diameter equal to that of the transfer tube (3) while the inner diameter of the loaded net (6?), which corresponds to the outer diameter of the support tube (1) is less than the maximum diameter of the stretched net.

  • Publication number: 20050141695
    Abstract: A metal port block is used on an intermediate distributor or vertical terminal block in a connection architecture to obtain a metal contact of the combined voice and data signals, which can subsequently be monitored by a test rack, without needing to disconnect or reconnect any bridge or cable. The access to the intermediate distribution frame can be established by a connecting block with which a plurality of boards are associated. The boards are vertically arranged in an array and each incorporates its relays or associated electronics to extract and supply information to a test table. Each board has pins to couple with the cavities of the distribution frame.

  • Publication number: 20050063531
    Abstract: Broadband telecommunications facilities wherein the filters or splitters that serve for the combination or segregation of the voice and data signals are arranged in a form separate from the DSLAM, being connected externally to the connection block of the intermediate distribution frame, and preferably being individual filters, which permits no increase in the space used in the distribution frame, easy replacement and maintenance, and due to the arrangement of the contact pairs on the connection block of the intermediate distribution frame maximum use is obtained of the same, being grouped together in groups of two pairs, wherein the half-pair that remains free is used either as a point of grounding or as a contact for metallic access.

  • Publication number: 20050018818
    Abstract: The connection architecture is configured to digitally monitor filters therein, directly connecting a test table to the intermediate distribution frame without requiring wiring to the DSLAM. Filter cards of the dominant operators and of second operators, at least one smart card containing the relays that are activated from the test table, for which a digital bus is used, allowing measurement of the subscriber loop for filters of second operators and the DSLAM signal as well for the dominant operator, are further provided with an additional card in charge of receiving and distributing the signal that arrives from the DSLAM, between the filters, and connectors to which are connected the filter cards so that when they are extracted, the input (voice) is connected to the output (voice +data) so that the voice signal is not disconnected.

  • Publication number: 20050018385
    Abstract: A strip is provided with a series of housings for a like number of terminals to which conductor wires accede thrust by a tool in order to establish a connection, by means of displacing the conductor wires over the terminals. Each housing or chamber is independent of those adjacent, the separation being constituted by means of transversal partitions, which makes possible the pouring of a sealing gel into the respective housing chamber up to a level which is at a height lower than the entrance step of the conductor wires and above the edge of the terminals, with the objective that both said terminals and the connections thereof with the conductors be immersed in the sealing gel in order to prevent oxidation on the connections.
