摘要： A conveyor 12 includes an infeed/scanning section (18) and a cutting/outfeed section (22). Both sections have an endless belt (70) and (180) each driven by a friction drive roller (100) and (200). Adequate frictional load is applied between the endless belts and corresponding drive rollers by tension assemblies, each having a tensioning roller (86), (188) rotatably mounted on a pivot frame structure (112), (220) allowing the weight of the tensioning roller to be applied to the return run of the endless belts. Dampeners (130) (270) are integrated with the tensioning rollers (86) (188) to dampen vibrations in the endless belts (70) (180).

摘要： An apparatus and method for performing high speed interruption of the flow of a very fine, high pressure, high speed water jet 12 of the type used to cut foods, paper, and other goods. The water jet 12 is interrupted by a pivotal blocking bar 22 within a blocker housing. The blocking bar 22 is pivoted in a collar 24b to a first desired position out of the path of water jet 12 or to a second desired position for blocking the path of water jet 12. A pivot arm 28, controlled by an output shaft 30 of a rotary actuator 32, controls the rotation of the blocking bar 22. A high pressured airflow is introduced into the device for controlling the exhaustion of blocked water within the device and for cooling the rotary actuator 32.

摘要： An apparatus for cutting workpieces (36) moving along a path relative to the apparatus, including a guide arm (20), a tool mount (24), and two rotation mechanisms (28), (30), is provided. The guide arm (20) includes mounted links (40), (46), and at least two intermediate links (42), (44), pivotably connected end-to-end to each other to define a multiple bar linkage arrangement. The tool mount (24) is attached to the guide arm (20) at a connection of two of the intermediate links. The rotation mechanisms (28), (30) are in communication with the links (40), (46), for pivoting the links (40), (46) to cause movement of the intermediate links (42), (44), further causing the desired movement of the tool mount (24) in the path of the moving workpiece (36). Additional components include a second guide arm (22) positioned on the opposite side of the workpiece (36). The tool mount (24) is elongated to hold multiple nozzles (58) and is pivotably connected between the two guide arms (20), (22). In a second embodiment, the apparatus includes a carriage (82), a pivot frame (80) with a longitudinal guideway (88) capable of engaging the carriage (82), a translation mechanism for moving the carriage (82) along the guideway (88), a tool mount (24) attached to the carriage (82), and a rotation mechanism for pivoting the pivot frame (80). The combined rotation of the pivot frame (80) and translation of the carriage (82) causes desired movement of the tool mount (24) in the path of the moving workpiece (36). Additional components include a second pivot frame (100) positioned on the opposite side of the workpiece (36). The tool mount (24) is elongated to hold multiple nozzles (58) or other tools, and is pivotably connected between the carriages (82) of the first and second pivot frames (80), (100). The apparatus of either embodiment has 2 degrees of freedom, permitting a variety of available cutting patterns.

摘要： The portioning foodstuffs in three dimensions includes generating a three-dimensional map of the foodstuff, and then comparing the generated three-dimensional map of the foodstuff with the desired shape as stored in the memory of a computer. The computer determines the particular cutting path in three dimensions in order to arrive at the predetermined shape. This is followed by cutting in one direction to fix at least one dimension of the foodstuff, determining whether the foodstuff is within the tolerance limits or whether the foodstuff portion has moved during the first cutting operation. If so, the foodstuff is rescanned to generate a two-dimensional image of the foodstuff, followed by cutting the foodstuff to arrive at a portion trimmed along three dimensions.

摘要： A system is provided for cutting a three-dimensional portion from a foodstuff. The system includes a conveyor for carrying a foodstuff to be portioned, a scanner located adjacent to the conveyor for scanning the foodstuff, a computer coupled to the scanner for receiving scan information from the scanner to determine one or more cutting paths for the foodstuff, and a cutter for portioning the foodstuff according to the one or more determined cutting paths. The computer is configured to perform generally four steps: (i) receiving scan information of the foodstuff from the scanner; (ii) building a three-dimensional map of the foodstuff based on the received scan information of the foodstuff; (iii) fitting at least one desired shape, which is stored in memory of the computer, onto the three-dimensional map in the memory of the computer; and (iv) determining one or more cutting paths to be used in portioning the foodstuff so as to produce one or more portioned foodstuffs corresponding to the at least one desired shape.

摘要： An apparatus for performing high-speed interruption of high-speed fluid jets (30) of the type used to cut food, plastics, wood, metal, and other products. The water jet (30) is interrupted by a blocking bar (22) mounted on a housing (12). The blocking bar (22) is pivoted by actuators so that the bar is disposed away from the high-speed fluid jet (30) in the open position and blockingly intersects the high-speed fluid jet (30) when in the blocking position. At least one of the actuators is an electromagnet assembly (20) and (21) having a selectively energizable coil (78) such that energizing the coil (78) will induce a magnetic field. The blocking bar (22) has an area of high magnetic permeability (114), wherein the bar (22) may be pivoted by application of the magnetic field generated by the coil (78) upon the area of high magnetic permeability (114).
