An apparatus for defining a loop handle in a tubular covering, such as an expanded mesh plastic covering, for a food. The apparatus of the present invention includes a frame for supporting the various assemblies that comprise the apparatus and for engaging a support surface such as a floor. The apparatus of the present invention further includes a conveyor assembly, which conveys the food product from a production line and into the slide area or chute. Positioned proximate the distal end of the chute is a voider assembly defined by a stationary set of voider gates and a moveable set of voider gates. Further, the apparatus of the present invention includes a handle formation assembly for engaging the compressed cord of tubular covering and forming the compressed cord into a loop handle and a clipper device for engaging the handle formation assembly, and the engaged compressed cord of tubular covering and securing two clips to the cord, one to secure the bottom of the tubular covering for the previously processed food product, and one to secure the loop handle and for severing the compressed cord of tubular covering at a point disposed between the two securing clips.

L'invention concerne un appareil permettant de définir une poignée en forme de boucle dans une enveloppe tubulaire, telle qu'une enveloppe en plastique à mailles extensibles destinée à un aliment. Ledit appareil comprend un châssis destiné à supporter les différents ensembles qui constituent cet appareil et à coopérer avec une surface de support telle qu'une base. Cet appareil comprend un ensemble bande transporteuse qui transporte un produit alimentaire d'une ligne de production dans une zone coulissante ou une goulotte. Un ensemble d'emballage sous vide positionné à proximité de l'extrémité distale de la goulotte est défini par des ensembles de grilles fixe et mobile. L'appareil comprend en outre un ensemble de formation de poignée coopérant avec un cordon comprimé de l'enveloppe tubulaire et formant ledit cordon comprimé en une poignée en forme de boucle, et un dispositif de clipper destiné à coopérer avec l'ensemble de formation de poignée et le cordon comprimé et à fixer deux agrafes sur ledit cordon, l'une pour fixer le bas de l'enveloppe tubulaire au cordon afin de séparer le produit alimentaire traité antérieurement, et l'autre pour fixer la poignée en forme de boucle et pour couper ledit cordon comprimé au niveau d'un point situé entre les deux agrafes de fixation.
