ABSTRACT:
A worker hangs birds on a series of movable modules M by placing the hocks of previously slaughtered and eviscerated birds in the pair of forks 30 affixed to the support plate 29 of each module. The thighs are received in the pair of tiltable forks 31. As the modules are conveyed about the machine a mandrel 28/70 carried by each module moves down into the cavity of the bird to stabilize the bird, and the bird is moved with the module through several cutting discs 1-7 which cut the carcasses into sections. The modules are rotated to orient the bird with respect to the cutting discs, and the legs of the bird are stretched by the tiltable forks 31 as the leg joint is cut. The mandrel 28/70 has a slot 77 through which a blade 5 passes in bisecting the backbone and the breast with the bird backbone lodged in the slot.
