ABSTRACT:
An improved meat deboning apparatus of the horizontally-arranged type, which is linear in a horizontal plane and fully supported by an integral base member throughout its length. Among the improvements made is the elimination of the prior art one-piece feed can and replacement with a split feed can with a replaceable insert. The split feed can of the present invention has a bottom half and a removeable top half. A replaceable insert is contained within. The insert is replaced by removing the top half of the feed can, removing the old insert and replacing it with a new insert. Because the feed can top half is removeable, a one-piece auger may also be used rather than the multiple-sectioned augers required by the pressure housings of the prior art. The thrust bearing and bearinged pillow blocks of the prior art are replaced with spherical roller bearing pillow blocks, thereby eliminating the need for a thrust bearing and its associated housing. The present invention also provides a transfer tube about the perforated housing, i.e., screen, of the prior art.
