ABSTRACT:
A stripping and transfer assembly for a food product interleaver apparatus includes a conveyor having an endless-type conveying surface formed with raised ribs spaced apart in parallel, a comb member having a plurality of teeth inserted between the raised ribs at the downstream end of the conveyor and curved surfaces for lifting off food product units from the conveyor, and a rotatable transfer wheel positioned above the comb member having a flexible outer annular contact surface for lightly engaging food product units lifted off by the comb member and moving them to a drop-off point onto a carrier sheet. Preferably, the transfer wheel is made of an elastic material and has radial spokes extending at an inclined angle to the outer annular contact surface for promoting radial deformation of the transfer wheel. The relative positions of the comb member and transfer wheel can be adjusted optimally.
