METHOD, PROCESSING DEVICE AND PROCESSING LINE FOR MECHANICALLY PROCESSING AN ORGAN OR ORGANS TAKEN OUT FROM SLAUGHTERED POULTRY.

摘要

A method and processing device for processing an organ package taken out from slaughtered poultry is provided. At least two cooperating rollers that define a nip between the rollers selectively allow preselected organs from the organ package to pass through the nip. The rollers during operation rotate in opposite directions in order to convey the organ package and simultaneously promote that the preselected organs pass through the nip, wherein the rollers have a cross-sectional diameter, the value of which varies as seen in the longitudinal direction of the rollers and depends on the location of the cross-section between an entrance portion and an exit portion of the rollers so as to provide each of the rollers with a superficial curved contour.
