ABSTRACT:
A downwardly biased, upwardly movable wheel is positioned in the path of bodies of meat advancing on a conveyor having lateral hooks for impaling and retaining the meat. The rotational axis of the wheel lies at an acute angle to the conveyor direction, guiding the meat-engaging portion of the wheel in a path which lies convergent to the conveyor direction and has a lateral component opposed to the hooks. A pork side engaged by the rotating wheel is shifted laterally during conveyor movement to drive the pork side into impaled engagement on a hook for subsequent cutting of the loin from the belly.
