Abstract

To enhance safety in cases where an upper die is fitted to a lower die into which a meat mass is fed, a state in which the upper die is fitted to the lower die is made basic. A measure is provided to ensure that a safety cover does not open in a state in which the upper die is raised, and the meat mass is automatically fed to the lower die as the upper die is raised, thereby enhancing the operating efficiency.
