ABSTRACT:
An improved carrier system is described for rows of eggs. The system includes elongated open carriers with covers of movable rods permitting the covers to be automatically opened and closed. The carriers are mounted on spaced chains for movement through egg processing stations as, for example, hot water cooking chambers. Means are provided along the chain paths for opening and closing the carrier covers at appropriate positions in the process. The covers are closed when carriers move into the heated cooking water and are opened as the carriers emerge from the water toward an egg discharge station. Pivotal mountings of the carriers on the chains permit them to be dumped by dumping members provided along the chain paths at the egg discharge station.
