ABSTRACT:
An improved handpiece for a meat-cutting tool of the type having a cutting blade rotatably mounted on a blade holder which is mounted on one end of the handpiece. A flexible drive cable enters the opposite end of the handpiece and is drivingly engaged with the blade by a pinion gear. The handpiece has a hollow handle formed of lightweight plastic which is removably mounted on the blade holder attachment portion of the handpiece by an externally threaded coupler. An O-ring is mounted within the bore of the coupler and is in sealing engagement with a tubular-shaped sleeve or ferrule mounted on the end of the drive cable casing. The O-ring prevents contaminants from flowing through the handpiece and along the casing and onto the meat product being cut by the blade. A portion of the coupler bore has a diameter complementary to the outer diameter of the ferrule sleeve which extends through the coupler bore and provides a support bearing for the sleeve within the handpiece to prevent excess twisting and flexing movement of the sleeve and subsequent separation of the cable casing therefrom. The O-ring is mounted in the support bearing portion of the coupler.
