Abstract: The invention provides a device for weighing slaughter products, comprising a guide which extends along a conveying path, product carriers which can be moved along the guide and which are configured for suspending slaughter products therefrom, and weighing means comprising a weighbridge. Each product carrier comprises four runners, two of which runners are provided behind the other two runners, seen in the direction of movement. The four runners are configured to roll over the weighbridge along respective tracks during a weighing interval upon movement of the product carrier, which tracks extend parallel to each other, wherein the four runners roll over the weighbridge during the weighing interval and wherein the weighbridge and the four runners are configured such that the runners will roll simultaneously onto the weighbridge and simultaneously off the weighbridge.

Abstract: The invention provides a device for changing the orientation of slaughter products, comprising an endless guide extending along a conveying path, product carriers which are movable along the guide.

Abstract: The invention provides a device for weighing slaughter products. The device comprises conveying means for conveying the slaughter products, the conveying means comprising a frame, two pulley means which are connected to the frame a fixed distance apart, being rotatable about two respective first vertical axes of rotation, an endless flexible conveying element which is passed over the two pulley means, which conveying element extends along a rectilinear weighing path between the two pulley means, a guide extending along a conveying path, hooks for the slaughter products, which hooks are connected to the conveying element at regular intervals and which are each provided with a guide elements for guiding cooperation with the guide.

Abstract: The invention provides a combination of a conveying device for slaughter animals and a removing device (15). The conveying device comprises a guide (2) extending along a transport path, product carriers (3) for the slaughter animals, which are movable in a direction of movement along the guide, each product carrier comprising at least one groove inclined according to a direction of inclination for holding at least one held part of a slaughter animal therein. The at least one groove has an open upper end and a lower end. The removing device comprises a pusher element, which is movable to and fro between a passive position and an active position for pushing the at least one held part out of the at least one groove. The removing device comprises a further pusher element which is movable to and fro between a further passive position and a further active position.
