  • Patent number: 4446600
    Abstract: A machine including a bone press cylinder with a rod member for axial displacement of the main bone of a fowl part. Stripping blades are driven by blade cylinders into lateral engagement with the fowl part bone. A shear blade severs remaining tendons and ligaments from the dislodged bone. Bone guides confine the part bone for axial passage past the stripping blades and shear blade. The bone press cylinder rod member carries a cam equipped plate the cams of which actuate, in sequence, the various powered blades of the machine. The stripping blades, shear blade and bone guides are all mounted on a detachable member of the machine to permit convenient removal for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
