ABSTRACT:
A charmarker for creating complex grid pattern of mark, such as a diamond-shaped gird pattern, on foods as the foods pass under the charmarker on a conveyer. The charmarker contains a rotating shaft on which heated char marking rings rotatably hang. Each of the rings is provided with parallel, spaced apart cross marking members located at the periphery of the ring. The shaft is provided with ridges and valleys that engage, in a gear fashion, teeth and grooves provided on an interior opening surface of each ring in order to keep the rings in synchronized rotation as they pass over the food. Synchronized rotation of the rings keeps the cross marking members on the rings aligned so that the desired grid pattern of mark appears on the food.
