ABSTRACT:
Method and device for processing the skin of a leg of a slaughtered bird. The bird or leg is moved along in a conveyor. The skin of the leg is cut through completely or almost completely in the vicinity of the knee joint between the region of the kneecap and the region of the back of the knee, the tissue lying under the skin remaining essentially intact, by conveying the leg past a cutting device and putting it in contact therewith. The leg is supported by leg positioning elements while it is passing the cutting device. The cutting depth of the cutting means is limited by a stop which is connected to the cutting means. Provision is made for a stripping device for stripping the severed thigh skin away from the suspended leg downwards. Provision is also made for a roll-up device for rolling up the drumstick skin prior to separating the leg into a thigh portion and a drumstick.
