ABSTRACT:
A fish processing machine that uses a large pair of refrigerated wheels to hold a fish for processing. The wheels rotate in a clockwise direction. A fish is introduced at the top of the wheels, where it is pressed against the refrigerated wheels. By the phenomenon of frost adhesion, the fish adheres to the wheels. The wheels are angled so that they are spaced closer at the top and farther apart at the bottom. As the wheels rotate, a pair of filleting knives cut the fillets from the carcass. As the wheels continue to rotate, the fillets are automatically separated by adhering to the refrigerated wheels. The remainder of the fish falls down between the wheels to a conveyer for disposal or further processing. As the wheels continue to turn, the fillets can be further processed before the fillets are removed from the skin and the skin is cleaned from the wheels.
