ABSTRACT:
Pieces of bony meat, fowl, fish or the like descend through a receiving hopper or duct and are transported by a pair of feed screws, out of the hopper through an exit opening in one end thereof. The hopper has side walls which may converge downwardly, in a known manner, but also have novel longitudinally converging side wall portions, opposite the feed screws, which converge toward each other and toward the feed screws in the exit direction, to afford tapered spaces between the longitudinally converging side wall portions and the feed screws, for enabling pieces to enter such tapered spaces and to become engaged with the feed screws for transportation in the exit direction. The feed screws preferably have overlapping screw flights of opposite hand, and rotate in opposite directions such that the flights propel the pieces into the tapered spaces.
