Abstract: A slit forming device according to an aspect includes a damper configured to pass through a plurality of stations arranged on a circumference, a slit forming blade disposed on an outer circumference side or an inner circumference side of a slit forming station among the plurality of stations, and a damper rotating part capable of rotating the damper about a vertical line such that a slit forming surface of a work faces the slit forming blade in the slit forming station.

Abstract: A work measurement device according to an aspect includes a posture holding surface for holding a posture of a work, a first work presser capable of pressing the work against the posture holding surface from an opposite side to the posture holding surface across the work, a contact disposed to be able to contact the work, a moving unit for moving, relative to the contact, the work pressed against the posture holding surface by the first work presser. The contact is configured to contact the work downstream of the first work presser in a relative movement direction of the work by the moving unit.

Abstract: A processing system for bone-in limb meats according to an embodiment includes: a right-limb incision-forming portion for forming incision on a right bone-in limb meat; a left-limb incision-forming portion for forming incision on a left bone-in limb meat; a processing line including a plurality of processing stations to separate a bone part and a meat part of each bone-in limb meat on which incision is formed at the right-limb incision-forming portion or the left-limb incision-forming portion; and a loading portion arranged at an uppermost stream part of the processing line to receive the right bone-in limb meat with incision formed at the right-limb incision-forming portion and the left bone-in limb meat with incision formed at the left-limb incision-forming portion.

Abstract: A clamping device for a bone-in limb meat according to an embodiment includes: a pair of clamp pieces for holding the bone-in limb meat; a support portion openably/closably supporting the pair of clamp pieces in respective base portions of the clamp pieces; and rotation suppressing portions for suppressing a rotation of the bone-in limb meat, the rotation suppressing portions being respectively disposed so as to protrude from surfaces of the pair of clamp pieces along a direction perpendicular to a plane including opening/closing directions of the pair of clamp pieces. In an opened state of the pair of clamp pieces, the pair of clamp pieces respectively have tip portions at positions closer to a center line between the pair of clamp pieces than the rotation suppressing portions and positions farther away from the support portion than the rotation suppressing portions in a direction along the center line.
