  • Patent number: 5326310
    Abstract: The invention relates to a de-rinding device for pork having a de-rinding knife (7) at one free end and, at a distance from same corresponding to the rind thickness, a contact surface. As a relative movement is carried out between a meat area to be de-rinded and the knife passing with the contact surface, the rind (5) is separated. A drive unit (10) is provided for the knife. According to the invention the knife and the drive unit constitute a manual de-rinding device (3) which is portable in operation and is equipped with at least one handle (16) on a device housing (9). The de-rinding knife (3) is suitable to de-rind whole or half hogs in strips before cutting them into pieces, in particular in a suspended position. A simple, safe and low-cost de-rinding process is thus afforded.
