The invention relates to a device for automatically separating the wishbone (18) from eviscerated poultry carcasses (4), comprising a revolving conveyor (28) with at least one retaining device (30) with a support body (32) for receiving and holding the poultry carcass (4) during transport through the device (26), and at least one processing station along a conveyor section of the conveyor (28), one of the processing stations being configured as a cutting unit (34) for separating the wishbone (18) from the poultry carcass (4), characterized in that the cutting unit (34) has a rotational drive (36), a cutting means (38) and a rotary arm (40) that connects the cutting means (38) and the rotational drive (36) and is designed to guide the cutting means (38) in the rotational direction (R) along a curved path (K), the rotary arm (40) and the cutting means (38) forming an at least essentially L-shaped arrangement and the cutting means (38) having a main cutting edge (44) that is interrupted by a recess (42) and is oriented at least essentially parallel to the rotational axis (46) of the rotary arm (40). The invention also relates to a method corresponding to the device. |
