These advanced production lines, through mechanization and automation, have achieved automated processing from receiving poultry, stunning, slaughtering, defecation, and eviscerating, greatly improving processing speed and product quality. However, while efficiency has increased, it has also highlighted the problem of increased water consumption, especially in the poultry carcass cleaning process, which aims to remove residual blood, feather fragments, and other impurities to ensure product cleanliness.

[0003] For example, CN2595173Y discloses a poultry evisceration machine for use in a poultry slaughtering and processing production line. During production, poultry carcasses are hung on hooks under a track and pulled forward by a chain. As each carcass enters the rinsing machine, a lifting slider, carrying a water spray pipe, inserts into the carcass's evisceration cavity for water rinsing. When the carcass turns past the turning track, the lifting slider, carrying the water spray pipe, rises and leaves the carcass's evisceration cavity, allowing the carcass to leave the rinsing machine along with the chain and proceed to the next process.

[0004] The high frequency of use of existing automatic cleaning and rinsing machines, coupled with the lack of efficient water-saving technologies and recycling mechanisms, has resulted in high overall water consumption, increasing the processing cost of poultry. Utility Model Content
