Abstract
A scribe saw assembly is provided for a loin puller and has substantially reduced wear and increased life of the assembly components. A pinion assembly includes a double keyway and opposing cutouts on the pinion shaft, with dual needle bearings. A bevel gear assembly includes pins for holding the scribe saw blade and dual bearings on the bevel gear shaft to eliminate shaft flex and blade wear. The standard is mounted to the motor housing with load bearing pins to prevent loosening of the mounting bolts. An adjustable ski is provided on the standard to control the cutting depth of the scribe saw blade.
Claims25
A loin puller scribe saw assembly, comprising:
- a standard to drivingly support a scribe saw rotary blade;
- a rotary scribe saw blade mounted on the standard for cutting a carcass middle;
- and
- a ski slidably mounted on the standard to permit adjustment of the blade cutting depth.
A scribe saw assembly for a loin puller machine, comprising:
- a standard to drivingly support a scribe saw rotary blade;
- a rotary scribe saw blade mounted on the standard for cutting a carcass middle;
- a motor operatively connected to the blade for rotating the blade;
- a pinion gear and a bevel gear meshingly mounted in the standard, with the motor drivingly connected to the pinion gear and the blade drivingly connected to the bevel gear;
- and
- a shaft interconnecting the bevel gear and the blade, and a pair of bearings on the shaft to eliminate shaft deflection.
A scribe saw assembly for a loin puller machine, comprising:
- a standard to drivingly support a scribe saw rotary blade;
- a rotary scribe saw blade mounted on the standard for cutting a carcass middle;
- a motor operatively connected to the blade for rotating the blade;
- a pinion gear and a bevel gear meshingly mounted in the standard, with the motor drivingly connected to the pinion gear and the blade drivingly connected to the bevel gear;
- and
