Abstract

An improved stuffing horn assembly for a sausage machine includes a center, manifold tube with a rotatable and translatable outer tube mounted thereon. Four branch tubes extend from the outer tube and are positionable by indexing means to provide a pathway for the sausage from the manifold tube through the outer tube and then through one of the four branch tubes. Means are provided for indexing the outer tube and connected branch tubes both longitudinally and rotatably.
