9. The automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to claim 8, characterized in that: The pig unloading device comprises a connecting rod and a lifting plate, wherein the track is provided with an arc track at a position above the disembowelment station (3), a position detector is provided at the front end of the arc track, and connecting rods are provided on both sides of the arc track, and the connecting rods are connected to the lifting plate at one end away from the arc track. When the pig hanging chain (41) moves to the lifting plate, the pig hanging chain (41) and the lifting plate cooperate to disconnect the live pig from the pig hanging chain (41).

10. The automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to claim 8, characterized in that: The pig unloading device comprises a driving cylinder and a position sensor, wherein the track is provided with a fixed seat at a position above the opening station (3), the driving cylinders are respectively provided on both sides of the fixed seat, a pulling plate is provided on the output end of the driving cylinder, and the position sensor is suitable for detecting the moving position of the pig hanging chain (41). When the pig hanging chain (41) moves to the lifting plate, the pulling plate is driven by the driving cylinder to perform a stretching movement to disconnect the live pig from the pig hanging chain (41).

11. The automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to claim 1, characterized in that: The scalding device comprises a scalding pool, and the conveying device (4) is arranged through the scalding pool so that the pigs can be scalded in the scalding pool.

12. The automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to claim 1, characterized in that: The scalding device comprises a water spray tunnel, a water inlet pipe and a heater, wherein the conveying device (4) is arranged in the water spray tunnel, one end of the water inlet pipe is connected to an external water supply through the heater, and the other end is arranged in the water spray tunnel to scald the pigs passing through the water spray tunnel.

13. The automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to claim 1, characterized in that: The scalding device comprises an air jet tunnel, an air intake pipe and a steam generator, wherein the conveying device (4) is arranged in the air jet tunnel, one end of the air intake pipe is connected to an external water supply through the steam generator, and the other end is arranged in the air jet tunnel to perform scalding on pigs passing through the air jet tunnel.

14. An automatic production line for pig slaughtering according to any one of claims 1 to 13, characterized in that: The conveying device (4) comprises a conveying track and a conveyor, wherein the conveying track passes through the scalding station (1), the depilation station (2), and the pig-cutting station (3) in sequence, a conveying chain is arranged on the conveying track, the pig-hanging chain (41) is hung on the conveying chain, and the driving end of the conveyor is connected to the conveying chain so that the conveyor drives the pig-hanging chain (41) to move along the conveying track through the conveying chain.
