A processing machine particularly for boiled/cooked crab including a shell crusher (2) and a subsequent separator in which the crab meat is separated from the shell fragments. The separator of the machine includes a plurality of upright, spinning, screw-threaded spindles (12). These spindles are arranged in a circle in a spinning meat collection tray (13) for crab meat with just sufficient clearance between adjacent spindles that the crab medium which is discharged into the circular space defined by the spindles (12) in the spinning meat collection tray (13) is pressed, by centrifugal force, out against the spindles (12), where it can pass between the adjacent spindles (12), while almost the entire bulk of hard shell fragments are prevented from passing between the spindles (12). The pitch of the screw threads of the spindles and their directions of rotation combine to move the shell fragments upward and into an overlying shell collection tray (10), while the crab meat makes its way to the outer portion of the rotary meat collection tray (13) confining the ring of spindles (12). |
