The conveying apparatus (1) for an industrial slicing machine comprises: a lower conveyor (2) designed to drag restingly a food product in a feed direction (D); and an upper conveyor (4) of floating type arranged above the lower conveyor (2) and comprising a frame (40) that carries a motor-driven conveyor belt (41), adapted to push in the feed direction (D) the product dragged by the lower conveyor (2) and closed in a loop around a plurality of linkage devices (50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55) mounted on the frame. The belt (41) defines two active branches (42, 43) facing the lower conveyor (2), adapted to contact above and push the product and connected together by a recessed branch (44) that defines a concavity (C) facing the lower conveyor (2).

A food product cutting system can include a food product carrier for carrying food product circumferentially around an axis of rotation, where the food product carrier includes food cutters each having a knife and a corresponding pusher. Each knife is for receiving and engaging with food product, and each pusher is slidably coupled with a knife and movable for pushing food product out of engagement with the food cutter. The food product cutting system can also include a track oriented generally circularly with respect to the food product carrier. The track can be arranged at varying radial distances from the axis of rotation and coupled with followers. Each follower can be connected to a corresponding pusher. In operation, food product moved into the knife of a food cutter and carried around the axis of rotation is incrementally pushed out of engagement with the food cutter by the corresponding pusher.

A blade assembly includes a blade support frame, and a plurality of V-shaped blades removably fastened to the blade support frame. The blade support frame has a food flow path extending downstream, and a plurality of blade mounts distributed around the food flow path. Each V-shaped blade has a first end portion connected to one of the blade mounts, a second end portion connected to another of the blade mounts, and an intermediate portion extending from the first end portion to the second end portion into the food flow path. At the first and second end portions of each V-shaped blade, a respective one of the blade mounts overlies both the upstream edge and the downstream edge of the V-shaped blade to inhibit the V-shaped blade from rotating when impacted by food.

The present disclosure includes a method for the control of water flow within a hydraulic food cutter assembly having a pump, a pump discharge line, a cutter assembly a product supply tank, and a fluid transport medium and comprises a method for increasing the flow of fluid transport medium through the pump while maintaining a preselected velocity for the flow of the fluid transport medium in pump discharge line by using a frustoconical accelerator tube attached to the discharge line of the pump having a plurality of apertures through which the fluid transport medium may flow out of the accelerator tube into fluid tight housing encasing the accelerator and a throttling valve operatively attached to the fluid tight housing discharge line for regulating the pressure of the fluid medium being discharge from the pump so as to maximize fluid medium flow through the pump at a preselected pressure in the discharge line.

A blade assembly is disclosed. The blade assembly includes a mounting ring, at least two elongate cutting blades, and a substantially circular central support positioned substantially at the center of the mounting ring. Each cutting blade may have a proximal end connected to the mounting ring. Each cutting blade may extend from the mounting ring toward a center of the mounting ring. Each cutting blade may be twisted along a length of the cutting blade. A distal end of each cutting blade may be connected to the central support.
