A household slicing machine wherein a rotary disc-shaped knife is mounted in a housing in a vertical plane to slice foodstuffs which abut against the front side of a stop. The front side of the stop is located in a second vertical plane which is parallel to the plane of the knife and the machine has an adjusting device which can move the stop relative to the knife so as to shift the plane of the f...

A household slicing machine wherein a disc-shaped knife can be driven to rotate in a first vertical plane and a stop for the foodstuff to be sliced is mounted in the housing in a second vertical plane which is parallel to the first plane. The stop is shiftable at right angles to the first plane to change the thickness of the slices and the adjusting device which shifts the stop relative to the kni...

The measuring device (14), located between the yarn guide eye (5) and the feed bobbin (1), for detecting the yarn speed possesses a friction-driven measuring roller (15), round which the incoming yarn (4) is looped, and a yarn-guide rule (15') arranged upstream of the measuring roller. The invention prevents faults on the measuring device (14) as a result of dust, the formation of fluff or the spl...
