ABSTRACT:
An interlock mechanism for a food product slicer that prevents the carriage support of a reciprocating carriage from being removed from the slicer housing unless the gauge plate of the slicer is closed and the carriage is positioned along a predetermined portion of the path of reciprocation of the carriage. The interlock mechanism includes a pivoting interlock plate and a stationary interlock bar. The pivoting interlock plate extends along the predetermined portion of the reciprocation path and the stationary interlock bar extends along the rest of the carriage's reciprocation path. The interlock plate is pivotally mounted on the housing and is movable from a blocking position, which it blocks pivoting and removal of a carriage support, to a free position, which it permits pivoting and removal of the carriage support. The interlock plate cooperates with the gauge plate adjustment control mechanism such that when the gauge plate is adjusted to an open position, the interlock plate is pivoted to the blocking position, and when the gauge plate is adjusted a closed position, the interlock plate is pivoted to the free position. Because the stationary bar is always in a blocking position, blocking the pivoting and removal of the carriage support, the carriage support can never be pivoted or removed when the carriage is positioned in the portion of the reciprocation path covered by the bar.
