DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(16) According to the illustrations in this report, we can see that the constructive arrangement applied in cooked and/or precooked meat shredding machine is worktop type equipment (1) of rectangular shape, with four feet, with motor and shaft mounted horizontally. In the upper part is the fairing (2) of the motor lock, the feed duct (3), the display window (4) of the processed product and the access window (5) to the claw (6) supporting the meat. The shredding roller (7) is mounted on two bearings (8) and coupled to the rotation transfer shaft of the motor.

(17) The worktop (1) has a closing plate (9) on the front, left and rear sides. The right-hand side is open and does not have a lower crossbar so that you can enter a container with casters that collect the shredded meat.

(18) The motor-closing fairing (2) has trapezoidal-shaped sides and is bolted to the worktop structure (1). It has the on/off button (10), an operating signal light (11), a reset button (12) and an emergency button (13) are installed.

(19) The feed duct (3) is mounted on the equipment shredder chamber. It can be long with curved structure or short with protective plates to prevent the operator from putting his or her hand in any gap and have its arm injured by the rotating operation of the shredder roller (7) of the equipment. Even with all this care against accidents in the feed duct (3), the equipment still has the emergency button (13), previously mentioned.

(20) The display window (4) mounted on hinges fixed to the upper part of the worktop (1), in front of the feed duct (3), serves to view the processed product without having to open any part of the equipment. It should only be opened for an easier cleaning of the shredder.

(21) The access window (5) to the supporting (6) claw is completely closed, it is also installed in the upper part of the worktop (1), mounted on two hinges, behind the feed duct (3), and it is closed with a bolt.

(22) The shredding roller (7) is a kind of roller filled with pins (14) of circular cross-section, fixed in its body and distributed in an imaginary helicoid line, forming multiple curved rows of pins (14), which pass between the teeth of the meat supporting claw (6). These rows of pins (14) allow the meat portion to be pushed forward during the rotational movement of the shredder roller (7).

(23) The supporting claw of the portion (6) is made of stainless steel, having a bar provided with circularly-shaped pins of circular cross-section, with the holder on the other side of said steel bar, and is installed in through holes made in the rear portion of the product shredder chamber, these pins constituting the teeth of the claw (6).

(24) The operation of the this meat shredder is quite efficient, it just requires the meat loaf to be cooked or precooked and placed, then the shredder collecting container is positioned, the equipment is turned on and the meat loaf is placed in the feeder (3). High-speed spinning moves the meat immediately, without grinding and without clogging. To clean the shredder, disconnect it from the mains socket, remove the power supply (3) and the display windows (4) of the processed and protective product (5) of the meat support claw (6) are opened. Then, just remove the claw (6) for washing, the feed duct (3), the shredder roller (7) and the walls of the shredding chamber are cleaned. Finally, the components the equipment will be assembled again, which will be ready for use.

(25) It should be noted that the feed duct (3) has special walls and cuts engaged to the shaft of the shredder roller (7), coating the bearings (8) to avoid accumulation of processed product in places of difficult cleaning.

(26) The short feed duct (3) is engaged to the same fixing base of the long duct, facilitating the manufacturing process and keeping the structures easy to clean. It has sloped plates welded on the front and rear walls of the duct, fixed and positioned with mismatched heights, with a space allowing the passage of the meat portion and preventing the operator's hands from passing the equipment.
