MEAT DRESSING/BONING METHOD AND SYSTEM THEREFOR

摘要

A meat dressing and boning method and a system therefor capable of dressing and boning meat and carcass in short work-hours with contamination by miscellaneous bacteria avoided and work simplified, the system comprising, when dressing and boning meat and carcass while holding meat and carcass via a clamp mechanism at the bottom end of a support rod suspended so as to be freely movable along a support rail extending in a work process direction and moving the meat and carcass along the support rail, a first joint swinging in a direction orthogonal to the support rail and with respect to the support rail on the top end side of a support rod, a second joint swinging in parallel to the support rail and with respect to the clamp mechanism on the lower end side of a support shaft, and a tubular or rod-like guide member extending in parallel to the support rail so as to contact at least one surface side of the meat and carcass held by the clamp mechanism, characterized in that the meat and carcass are broken up and boned while being moved tracking the moving of the support rod along the support rail, with the swinging direction of the first or second joint position-regulated by the guide member.
