ABSTRACT:
A multiplicity of shell eggs to be broken are first transported in transverse rows on an infeed conveyor, from which they are loaded onto a transfer conveyor. This transfer conveyor extends at a right angle to the infeed conveyor, so that the successive transverse rows of shell eggs on the infeed conveyor are rearranged into a longitudinal row on the transfer conveyor. The shell eggs are subsequently transferred from transfer conveyor onto respective egg breaker assemblies mounted at longitudinal spacings on an endless breaker conveyor, while the breaker assemblies are traveling side by side with the transfer conveyor. The breaker assemblies break the shell eggs, and the white and yolk recovered therefrom are separated by recovery cup assemblies also carried by the breaker conveyor under the respective breaker assemblies. As an incidental feature an air nozzle assembly is mounted on the breaker conveyor in the vicinity of each breaker assembly. Supplied with pressurized air from an air supply mechanism on one of the rotary wheels around which the breaker conveyor extends, each air nozzle assembly applies forced streams of air into a broken eggshell on one of the breaker assemblies for the recovery of the residual liquid therefrom.
