Blade attachment for meat cutters

A blade attachment system comprising:

• a meat cutter drive shaft having an external hexagonal profile and defining an axis;
• a blade head for a meat cutter comprising at least two cutter blades,
• the cutter blades arranged in a single plane perpendicular to the axis,
• each cutter blade having a blade foot and one or more cutting edges,
• each blade foot having a rectilinear edge and a semicircular recess, a peripheral side in the recess having a semicircular toothing structure,
• the toothing structure comprising a plurality of projections or teeth arranged around the semicircular recess having a plurality of recesses or spaces;
• a mounting element in the form of a sleeve or disk disposed between the blade feet and the drive shaft in a radial direction,
• the mounting element having an outer mounting toothing structure with mounting teeth and mounting spaces which match the toothing structure of each blade foot, wherein each blade foot is connected with its respective toothing structure to the mounting element by the mounting toothing structure,
• the mounting element having an inner hexagonal profile which is configured to match the external hexagonal profile of the drive shaft such that the mounting element is fitted in a rotationally secure manner on the drive shaft;
• and
• an initial thrust ring, which serves as an axial stop for the blade head.
