Problems solved by technology

However, this positioning results in a low yield of deheaded fish, for example due to different sizes of fish heads and different characteristics of the fish, such as whether the fish has been pre-decapitated or not.
Furthermore, there is no physical control over the cuts being made, which would obviously be reflected in low yields

Embodiment Construction

[0049] figure 1 depicts a front view of one embodiment of a fish deheading apparatus 100 according to the present invention, figure 2 and 3 Shown in a perspective view, the fish deheading apparatus 100 is used for deheading fish, such as salmon. In the embodiment shown here, the fish deheading apparatus 100 includes a plurality of fish holders 110, a transfer apparatus and a plurality of cutting stations 103-105.

[0050] The conveyor apparatus shown herein comprises a carousel conveyor comprising an endless chain or belt to which the plurality of fish holders 110 are attached and arranged along a closed loop about a horizontal axis of rotation 112 . The path travels in the direction of travel indicated by arrow 111 . As will be shown in more detail later, each fish holder 110 shown here is configured to receive a fish, preferably with its ventral side facing up.

[0051] The fish holder comprises oppositely arranged guide members (not shown here) which can be moved in a ...

Abstract

This invention a fish decapitating apparatus, where a fish holder is provided configured to receive a fish with the belly side facing up at an in-feed station, at least one cutting station is providedand a conveying apparatus configured to convey the fish in said fish holder from the in-feed station to at least one cutting station. The fish holder includes opposingly arranged guide members moveable in a hinge like manner in relation to each other, the guide members being configured to clamp the fish head behind the collar bones such that the collar bones are resting on an outer side of said guide members in the clamped state with the fish head sticking out from the fish holder, the fish decapitating apparatus further including a measuring device configured to measure the position of the collar bones when being in the clamped position, and a control unit configured to automatically adjust the position of the at least one cutting station during cutting in accordance with the measured position of the collar bones.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to fish deheading equipment and a method for deheading fish. Background technique [0002] Various fish decapitation devices exist. DE2891159 discloses a head separation station with two rotating blades, the focus of which is to be able to handle unheaded and pre-headed fish of different sizes placed into containers. The fish is positioned based on a front end stop for influencing the longitudinal position of the fish (ie, pre-alignment of the fish) before entering the cutting tool. However, this positioning results in a low yield of fish decapitation, for example due to different sizes of the fish heads and different characteristics of the fish, such as whether the fish has been pre-decapitated or not. Furthermore, there is no physical control over the cuts being made, which obviously translates into low yields. Contents of the invention [0003] Against the above background, it is an object of embodiments of the pre...
