Abstract
The invention relates to a cutting device for slicing food products, comprising a driven circular blade rotating about a blade axis revolving on a track about a center axis, and a cover element rotatable relative to the circular blade on the side of the circular blade facing away from a product to be sliced. The cover element is driven by an auxiliary drive, such that it rotates relative to the circular blade about the blade axis. The auxiliary drive is diverted from a drive of the circular blade.
Claims14
A cutting apparatus for slicing food products, comprising
- a drivable circular blade (14) which rotates about a blade axis (M) which revolves on an orbit about a center axis (Z);
- and
- a cover element (16) provided at a side of the circular blade (14) remote from a product (50) to be sliced and rotatable relative to the circular blade (14), wherein the cover element (16) is driven by an additional drive (40) such that it rotates relative to the circular blade (14) about the blade axis (M), wherein the additional drive (40) is drawn off a drive (32, 36) of the circular blade (14).
