ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for flame peeling onions comprises a pair of parallel spaced apart rails along which onions are conveyed by a worm conveyor having a central shaft mounted above and parallel to the rails and having a periphery formed by helical teeth positioned in close proximity to the rails. Curved guards extend outwardly and upwardly from the rails adjacent to the worm conveyor periphery and direct onions displaced from the rails back onto them. A plurality of gas burners located directly below the rails are adapted to scorch the skins of onions being conveyed on the rails. Onions are loaded singly onto the rails from a container by a rotatable wheel having peripheral scoops, the wheel being mounted so that the scoops pass through and collect onions from the container and deposit them onto a chute leading to the rails.
