Vorrichtung zum Filettieren von Geflügelbrust

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus for filleting the breastpiece of slaughtered poultry, which breastpiece at least comprises the sternum (2) and the wishbone (3) defined by both clavicles, with means for supporting and conveying (4) the breastpiece and with cutting means (7) for cutting loose the breastmeat from the sternum and wishbone. The cutting means comprise a cutting device having a V-shape which basically corresponds with the outermost boundary of the wishbone, wherein said cutting device is driven such that it severes the breastmeat from the wishbone closely adjacent said outermost boundary and, as seen in the direction of conveyance of the apparatus, moves along substantially synchronously with the breastpiece while severing.
