Small slaughtered animal automatic packing machine - has piston thrusting from trough through funnel into mould

摘要

The machine automatically packs slaughtered small animals, partic. cockerals, and has a hopper with ejector, and a packing trough with funnel-shaped passage and funnel flap hinging open. Each animal delivered into the trough is thrust by a limited stroke to the insertion piston into the passage and a mould with maximum external dimensions. The piston then returns to the starting position, to allow the limbs to lie entirely against the body. Initial positioning can be effected by a lever arm or a second piston.
