Abstract

See full text

A conveyor for a patty-forming apparatus is supported in cantilever fashion on support rods from the patty-forming apparatus. The conveyor includes an easily operated toggle mechanism to elevate the conveyor at a downstream end to facilitate sliding displacement of at least a portion of the conveyor on the support rods to gain access to portions of the apparatus. Particularly, the invention provides a lever action mechanism that tips the conveyor to raise a discharge end of conveyor. This mechanism facilitates sliding the conveyor out for access to knockout plungers of the apparatus. Elevation adjustment assemblies are arranged between the conveyor and the support rods. The set of the elevation assemblies is not affected by operation of the toggle mechanism.
