ABSTRACT:
A poultry skinning apparatus comprising a plurality of elongated rollers rotatively mounted to a support frame at a declining angle to define a longitudinal processing path between a first end and a second end of each roller. Each elongated roller, in accordance with the preferred embodiments, defines a plurality of helical teeth and spaces, having a first helix angle, which extend about a longitudinal axis and define the periphery of each roller. The elongated rollers are independently mounted in pairs and define an adjustable pinch gap originating at the first ends of the rollers. In accordance with a first preferred embodiment, the elongated rollers include a reversed segment proximate to the second ends having a plurality of teeth and spaces at a second helix angle which opposes the first helix angle. The elongated rollers define a flat surface near the second ends in a second preferred embodiment and a second reversed segment of teeth and spaces is proximate to the first ends in a third preferred embodiment. A vertically adjustable second mounting assembly, in a fourth preferred embodiment, enables repositioning of the second ends of the elongated rollers to produce different roller slope angles. In accordance with preferred methods, the poultry skinning apparatus is interposed within a typical poultry processing assembly line to allow skinning of poultry fowl with no aging of the fowl being necessary.
