Abstract

Apparatus for dividing a continuous sausage skein coming for a stuffing machine into individual sausages in which rotating V-shaped plates for constricting the skein, that are relatively thin in the area of their V cutouts compared to their remaining wall thickness, are obliquely disposed in opposite directions relative to one another so that they staggeredly interlock as they constrict the sausage skein.
