ABSTRACT:
A multistage piston assembly is provided in apparatus for stuffing large meat articles in flexible tubular food casing. The piston assembly is mounted in longitudinally axial alignment with the article-loading chamber and stuffing horn and includes a first stage piston and a second stage piston coaxially mounted inside the first stage piston. During the first stage of operation, the two pistons move together to force the meat article through the article-loading chamber and into the stuffing horn. The second piston is then actuated to force the meat article through the stuffing horn and into the food casing. In order to prevent loss of liquid from the meat article during the stuffing operation, the two pistons are constructed so that they fit snugly inside the loading chamber and stuffing horn with minimum clearance and also are made to be substantially coextensive in the longitudinal direction with both the chamber and horn.
