Embodiment Construction

[0089] A part of a flow diagram for processing poultry is schematically shown in FIG. 1 . The schematic diagram shows parts of a facility for processing poultry in relation to a slaughter facility according to the invention. At station 10, the poultry were stunned. This can be done electrically or gaseously. At station 11, the birds are suspended by their legs on the conveyor assembly. Usually this is done manually. It is possible to stun first and then suspend the birds, or to suspend the birds first and then stun them. In either case, the transport assembly on which the poultry is suspended transports the poultry in the transport direction T to the slaughter facility 12 according to the invention.

[0090] For example, poultry are stunned at station 10 and then successively transferred to slaughter facility 12 . The facility 12 is suitable for use in combination with a conveyor assembly for conveying poultry in the transport direction T, from which the poultry's legs ar...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a slaughtering installation for processing poultry which installation is adapted to be used in combination with a conveying assembly (40) for conveying poultry which is suspended from their legs in a transport direction T. The slaughtering installation comprising a killing device with poultry positioning means for positioning the neck region of the poultry suspended from the conveying assembly, the killing device further comprising cutting means for cutting into the neck and thereby opening at least one blood vessel in the neck region of the poultry. According to the invention, the positioning means comprise a back neck guide (54) along which the back side of the neck of the poultry is guided, and a breast neck guide (53) along which the breast side of the neck of the poultry is guided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a slaughter facility and method. More specifically, the invention relates to a facility suitable for use in combination with a transport assembly for transporting poultry with suspended legs in transport direction T. Such slaughter facilities are used in the poultry handling industry for the continuous slaughter of large numbers of poultry. The butchering (killing) means the act of mechanically opening at least one blood vessel in the neck. Background technique [0002] Known slaughtering facilities include a master killing device having a master poultry positioning device for positioning the neck region of a bird suspended from a conveyor assembly, and a master cutting device for cutting into the neck And thereby open at least one blood vessel in the neck region of the poultry. In these slaughtering installations, the poultry suspended from the conveyor assembly enters the master killing device at entry position S and is co...
