  • Method and apparatus for unloading a poultry transport container
    Patent number: 5470194
    Abstract: In a method for unloading a poultry transport container, which comprises at least one loading tray with a side unloading flap, the end of a discharge conveyor is applied from the side of the unloading flap closely above the loading tray. This end is gradually moved towards the side of the loading tray opposite the unloading flap, thus forcing the poultry to take place onto the discharge conveyor. The loading tray, the discharge conveyor or both may be displaceable for obtaining their relative movement.
