ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for electrically stunning animals. Said apparatus comprises two endless conveyors running parallel to each other and positioned to form a V-shaped passageway therebetween and two sets of electrodes which extend downwardly into the V-shaped passageway. Each set of electrodes is pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis located above the passageway to enable the electrodes to pivot in the direction of movement of the conveyors. The first set of electrodes slopes downwardly and forwardly with respect to the direction of movement of the conveyors, and the first electrodes have a small electrode contact surface at their bottom end. The second set slopes downwardly and rearwardly with respect to the direction of movement of the conveyors, and the second electrodes have an electrode contact surface covering substantially the entire side that faces the first set of electrodes.
