JET KNIFE STRUCTURE Abstract of the Disclosure A jet-knife assembly for meats or like products is provided which assures even, predict- able grinding with a minimum of objectionable fines or agglomerated strings, so as to yield final products of consistent dimensions and characteris- tics. The overall assembly preferably includes a plate presenting only a single set of circularly arrayed apertures therethrough, together with a cooperating, multiple-blade, rotating knife adja- cent the plate; the knife blades each have elon- gated fluid-conveying channels along the operating faces thereof, which are sized relative to the plate apertures so that the cross-sectional area of the channel is always greater than the total plate open area in communication with the channel during blade rotation. Pressurized steam or air is di- rected to the blade channels during operations, so that as the knife rotates and blade channels come into communication with the plate apertures, prod- uct is expelled or "popped" out of the plate aper- tures. Provision of non-bridging blade channels assures substantially constant pressure conditions at each plate aperture to yield the most consistent final products.
