ABSTRACT:
A shaft toe mount intended for inclined or vertical agitators such as are used for the processing of materials including food materials in a kettle, the present toe mount provides a bearing surface for that end of a rotary shaft of the agitator which extends into the interior of the kettle. Agitators advantageously mounted by the shaft toe mount of the invention include mixing structures capable of stirring or mixing operations within a kettle and particularly when inner walls of the kettle are to be scraped to prevent material adhesion or "burn-on" such as occurs when food materials are heated and/or cooked within a kettle. The present shaft toe mount is configured to allow rapid removal from the kettle so that the mount as well as the kettle and agitator can be cleaned daily according to accepted standards of cleanliness. The present mount is also formed of materials meeting USDA standards for metal to metal contact in food processing situations where the use of lubricants is proscribed, the mount also being repairable in the event of excessive wear or damage to the mount.
