ABSTRACT:
A wiener stick applicator composed of a drum or magazine rotatable about its horizontal longitudinal axis and having parallel grooves extending longitudinally of its exterior for supporting handle sticks and wieners or wieners/half wieners, in axial aligned relationship, fed to the grooves from chute or hopper means. One end portion or generally one-half of each groove is relatively narrow for snugly receiving one of the sticks, while the remainder of each groove is relatively wide and generally equal to the diameter of the wieners. A coaxial casing circumscribes the drum in spaced relationship and coacts with the grooves to confine the sticks and wieners against displacement. The casing has an inlet opening extending longitudinally of the drum for admitting an axially aligned stick and wiener to each groove. A outlet opening, extending longitudinally of the drum, is provided in the casing in spaced relation to the inlet opening for the ejection of wieners impaled on sticks. A stick pusher is provided for each groove and has a spline slidably mounted in the outer end portion of the narrow half of said groove for engaging and forcing each stick to penetrate the wiener aligned therewith upon reciprocation of the pusher toward said stick while revolving with the drum between the inlet and outlet openings. Each pusher has a cam follower for coacting with a generally V-shaped cam slot in the casing to reciprocate the pusher toward and away from its respective stick.
