ABSTRACT:
A slice-cutting machine, for cutting slices out of tuberous vegetables or root crops, has a rotor mounted rotatably in a rotation housing, which rotor carries along the material to be cut in the direction of rotation and at the same time presses it against the inner wall of the rotation housing. A flap is formed over a section of the circumference of the rotor. The flap is pivotably mounted at its front end and with respect to the direction of rotation of the rotor. In the opening position with its back end opposite a permanently arranged blade, the flap limits a cutting gap defining the thickness of the cut. A resilient device is provided which pivots the flap into a widening opening position, and a manually rotatable eccentric, which acts upon the flap contrary to the effect of the resilient device, is provided to alter the cutting gap.
