ABSTRACT:
The two spindle machine has an innermost, elongated, vent-entering probe associated with one spindle and an elongated, cylindrical cutter associated with a second spindle concentrically receiving the probe. The probe may be telescoped into and out of the open end of the cutter, the latter having notched cutting teeth at the lower end thereof, so that, when extended, the probe and an enlargement at the lower end of the probe may be inserted into the vent opening. When the probe is partially retracted up into the cutter, cooperating, close-fitting surfaces between the latter and the probe grip the intestine and retain the same as the cutter is then rotated to sever the skin surrounding the vent; whereupon the probe and the cutter may be withdrawn together to likewise partially withdraw the intestine from the carcass. A suction port on the enlarged end of the probe assists the latter in retaining the intestine against escape during the operation, and the special notched teeth at the lower end of the cutter perform an effective severing action without removing excessive amounts of edible portions of the meat adjacent the vent opening.
