ABSTRACT:
Hides are pulled over the heads of horizontally moving animal carcasses while the carcasses are simultaneously supported by a trolley rail and a pair of leg gripping assemblies. Each leg gripping assembly has a pair of extensible jaw members which, when closed, form a leg receiving space which has a generally vertical inclined axis. The leg gripping assemblies are mounted on a frame which is driven forwardly parallel to the trolley rail by a pusher dog on a chain. The pusher dog chain is drivingly connected to a chain which drives the trolleys along the rail.
