ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for shelling dried shrimp comprising an outer container and an inner container for receiving a quantity of dried shrimp for shell removal. The inner container is positioned within the outer container so as to leave a shell collecting space between the bottom of the inner container and the bottom of the outer container. The inner container bottom has a multiplicity of holes to allow communication between the inner container and the outer container at the shell collecting space. After a quantity of dried shrimp is placed in the inner container, the shrimp is mixed and turned by a rotating blade which loosens and removes the shells from the shrimp. Suction is applied in the shell collecting space by a vacuum means which pulls the loose shells from the inner container into the shell collecting space.
