Abstract
A casing holding device for a machine for filling and twisting off sausages includes a filling tube rotatable along its longitudinal axis, onto which a slug can be pulled, and which, on its free end, is equipped with an output opening for the output of sausage fill, and a casing brake which is equipped with a braking ring which surrounds the free end of the filling tube and which essentially rests against this under contact pressure, and a clamping member to secure the slug to the filling tube so as to rotate the slug with the filling tube.
Claims21
A casing holding device used in a machine for filling and twisting off sausages, the casing holding device comprising:
- a filling tube rotatable along an longitudinal axis, the filling tube having a free end;
- a slug being pulled onto the filling tube;
- an output opening, being disposed at the free end of the filling tube, for an output of a filled sausage slug;
- a casing brake having a braking ring, the braking ring surrounding the free end of the filling tube, and the braking ring being disposed against the filling tube under a contact pressure;
- wherein the braking ring is non-rotationally situated;
- wherein the free end of the filling tube, at least on an exterior surface contacted by the braking ring, is made of a material which has a higher friction coefficient than that of an interior surface of the braking ring.
