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

摘要

Method and processing device for processing an organ package taken out from slaughtered poultry, using at least two cooperating rollers that define a nip between said rollers for selectively allowing preselected organs from said organ pack-age to pass through said nip, which rollers during operation rotate in opposite directions in order to convey the organ package and simultaneously promote that said preselected organs pass through said 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 said rollers so as to provide each of the rollers with a superficial curved contour.
