    Abstract: 1317602 Stuffing sausages UNION CARBIDE CORP 22 May 1970 [22 May 1969] 787/73 Divided out of 1317601 Heading A2B An apparatus for stuffing a sausage casing comprises a stuffing tube (10) having a casing restraining means (12) mounted thereon, means adjacent the discharge end for elongating, constricting and reducing the diameter of the stuffed casing at its last filled end, and means, for example a clipping unit (40), for closing the casing where it has been elongated and restricted. The elongating and constricting means may comprise a dished platen (24) having an annular passage formed thereon, the inside diameter of the annular passage being no smaller than the inside of the stuffing tube.

    Abstract: 1,183,629. Filling food casings. UNION CARBIDE CORP. 5 Dec., 1967 [5 Dec., 1966], No. 55325/67. Heading A2B. A method for automatically stuffing a food casing with a food emulsion, comprises positioning a length of food casing about a stuffing member, peripherally exerting a pressure against the inside wall of a closed leading end portion of the casing in a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of said casing and expanding the cross-section of said portion to a predetermined dimension prior to shipping, admitting a food emulsion under pressure inside the expanded end portion and stuffing said end portion, allowing the stuffed end portion to advance under the emulsion pressure, continuously exerting the peripheral expanding pressure against the inside wall of succeeding portions of casing whereby advance of the casing is retarded while continuously stuffing food emulsion into said succeeding expanded portions, and closing the last stuffed portion of the food casing. A suitable apparatus comprises a stuffing tube having a presizing device including an outwardly expandable structure about the tube supported by a guide collar fixed to the outlet of the tube and a movable assembly mounted about the tube, movement of the assembly resulting in expansion and contraction of the expandable structure. In one form the expandable structure comprises a plurality of cammed arms which rotate outwards. In another form an endless flexible tubular sleeve filled with a fluid medium is fastened between the guide collar and movable assembly. There may be provided an emulsion stoppering ring through which the expanded casing passes, the inner diameter of the ring being less than the outside diameter of the expanded casing, and may be positioned adjacent to a tubular collar over which the expanded casing passes, mounted on the extremity of the outlet end of the stuffing links, the diameter of the collar being no greater than the inside diameter of the expanded casing, and pressure from the issuing food emulsion urging the stoppering ring away from the collar.

    Abstract: 1,180,067. Casing closure. UNION CARBIDE CORP. 25 Aug., 1967 [26 Aug., 1966], No. 39190/67. Heading A2B. A flattened tubular food casing having a closed end comprises a group of pleats 26 formed at one end of the casing, a hanger loop 24 having a bead 22a, 22b, formed at each extremity thereof and positioned adjacent the group of pleats, either as shown or with the pleats between the beaded ends, and a wire or the like clip section 166 closed about the pleated casing end and hanger loop near the beads. The hanger loop may be formed from a tape of longitudinally oriented thermoplastic material with the beads formed integrally, for example by cutting the tape to length by a heated member. An apparatus for forming the closure comprises a vertically movable support member supporting a stack of flattened tubular food casings, a plurality of casing feed rolls for successively feeding the food casings individually over a supporting surface to a pleating assembly, said pleating assembly comprising a vertically movable lower plate member horizontally disposed under the leading end of the casing-supporting surface and having a plurality of spaced apart forming members through a plurality of spaced apart slots in the leading end of the casing- supporting surface, a vertically movable upper plate member horizontally disposed over the leading end of the casing- supporting surface and provided with a plurality of spaced apart pleating members vertically depending therefrom and adapted to co-operate with the spaced apart forming members of the lower plate member to pleat the leading end of the casing; a hanger-loop forming assembly disposed near the pleating assembly and comprising a plurality of rolls for intermittently feeding a length of material over an anvil and to a rotatable clamp reversing the length of material into a two-ply loop and clamping the two plies against the anvil; a severing member adapted to sever the loop material over the anvil; a gripping member connected to a cross carriage for transporting the loop from the loop-forming assembly to a position adjacent the pleated end of the casing; a casing transfer mechanism for transporting the pleated casing end and loop to a clip closure forming assembly, said clip closure forming assembly comprising a plurality of rolls for feeding a length of wire into a movable clip die adapted to cut a section of the wire and to bend said section, and cooperating with a clip closing die having a slot therein for receiving the pleated casing end and loop, movement of the clip die toward the clip closing die forcing the bent clip wire section to encircle the pleated casing end and loop.
