ABSTRACT:
A rotary cutting apparatus for slicing food products into pieces such as helical strips includes a rotatable cutter head assembly having a radially extending thrust runner and discharge sleeve through which sliced food pieces are discharged. The cutter head assembly is supported by a plurality of radial motionless ring bearings in bearing contact with an outer periphery of the sleeve and by a plurality of motionless thrust bearings in supportive contact with the thrust runner. Bearing surfaces at the interfaces between the radial and thrust bearings and rotatable cutter head assembly are lubricated by circulating water. The rotatable cutter head assembly and belt drive system which drives the assembly are mounted as a unit on a pivotable frame to allow the combined structure to be pivoted away from a water feed inlet tube which delivers food products to the rotatable cutter head assembly.
