ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for peeling shrimps comprises two rollers each associated with a concave shrimp supporting surface extending approximately along 180.degree. in parallel with the roller surface. Cutting elements extend from the supporting surface into the elongated gap between each supporting surface and the opposed roller, and rods, which are radially movable in apertures in the roller, extend into the gap from the opposite side. Due to centrifugal action resulting from rotation of each roller, some of the rods engage shrimps fed into one end of the gap and press them against the cutting elements while other rods act to advance the shrimps longitudinally of the gap and expose one lateral surface of each shrimp to a shell cutting action. The rollers are arranged and driven such that both sides of each shrimp are subsequently acted upon in the first and second gap, respectively.
