ABSTRACT:
The chute has a power-driven, rotary carriage in the nature of a stall which an animal may enter and be confined within during processing and various veterinary procedures. A lower side panel of the carriage may be removed entirely from the carriage for access to the lower extremities of the animal while it is standing on the floor of the carriage, or, if desired, the carriage may be rotated to any one of a number of possible positions, for example, 90.degree. from an upright condition, so that the animal is essentially lying on its side within the carriage. The floor may then be completely removed or swung back out of the way for access to the lower extremities of the animal during surgical procedures. Other portions of the carriage adjacent the bottom thereof may also be entirely removed for complete, unhindered access to the lower portions of the animal at that time with the carriage serving essentially as an operating table. Sides of the carriage may be adjusted inwardly and outwardly for tighter or looser confinement as desired, and upper portions of the carriage sides in the form of sets of vertical bars may be selectively swung down out of their normal closed positions to permit access to the upper body portions of the animal when the carriage is upright.
