The method for removing a spinal column from a block of meat which includes detecting the position and shape of the spinal column in the block of meat that includes at least a part of the spinal column and cutting the block of meat in the vicinity of the spinal column in a V-letter form from two directions by three-dimensionally controlling the position of a cutter based on data concerning the detected position and shape of the spinal column.

A partially automated decoring saw having a tubular blade and a table surface partially blocking the saw blade opening and means decreasing the blockage temporarily to allow for passage of an enlarged portion of the core into the saw. A core knocker can also be provided, as can air purge of blade seals to achieve partial self-cleaning.

An apparatus and method for removing bones from a sub-primal cut meat portion, and more particularly, an apparatus and method for removing bones from a chuck blade sub-primal cut meat portion where said apparatus includes a carousel-type conveyor system arrangement having at least one mounting station and at least one meat cutting station. The carousel-type conveyor has a mounting fixture that is adapted to hold and manipulate and orient the meat cut such that bone removal can be performed effectively. The carousel-type conveyor in one embodiment is a rotation table which transitions the mounting fixture with the sub-primal cut mounted thereon to a position adjacent a cutting station. Each cutting station includes at least one reciprocating chisel blade assembly that is utilized to sever the meat from the bone by repetitively plunging and retracting a chisel blade into and from the meat and bone interface with a reciprocating stabbing action thereby severing the meat from the bone. The maneuvering and cutting pattern of the chisel blade assembly is controlled by a controller which can be a PLC or a computer or any other appropriate computing device.

A de-boning method and apparatus for automating incision making to the meat of bone laden meat and scraping operation of meat from the bone laden meat by a meat separator, are proposed.

The apparatus has a clamping device 1 for clamping an end part ‘d’ of unconcealed part of the bone of bone laden meat, a meat separator 31 having meat scraping plates 317a, 317b for pinching a bone of the bone laden meat, a cutter 33 located between the clamping device 1 and the meat separator 31, a clamping device lifting means 30, and rotation drive means 303 and 313 for rotating for rotating the clamping device 1 and the meat separator 31 in synchronism with each other, whereby spiral incision is made to a part of the meat of the bone laden meat by rotating the clamping device 1, and remaining part of the meat is scraped off as the clamping device is lifted while rotating in synchronism with the meat scraper.

In an automatic deboning apparatus, an X-ray irradiation unit is provided on the upstream side of a meat cutting unit in a direction of transport of the work. In the X-ray irradiation unit, an X-ray r is irradiated to a work w from an X-ray irradiation device, an image of the X-ray transmitted through the work is subjected to image processing in an image analysis process unit, and two-dimensional position coordinates of a bone part are thereby obtained. In the meat cutting unit, three robot arms are provided with cutting blades. A storage unit of a controller stores three-dimensional position coordinates of a target operation course of each of the cutting blades. The target operation course is corrected on the basis of the two-dimensional position coordinates of the bone part obtained for each work in the image analysis process unit.

A method for tenderizing meat of a red meat slaughter animal includes separating a vertebra of the animal and applying electrical stimulation to the animal's musculature. The vertebra separating is performed prior to the onset of rigor mortis to enable stretching of muscle fibers in the carcass. The electrical stimulation is focused on a midsection of the animal.

The invention discloses a flesh separating machine which comprises a machine frame, a driving mechanism, a transmission shaft, a screw shaft, a feeding hopper, a pressurizing part and a flesh separating part. The separating screw shaft part is a conical screw shaft, and the flesh separating part is also a conical component coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the separating screw shaft; theinner wall of the separation screw shaft is provided with a clearance fit with the outer wall of the separation screw shaft part; the side wall of one end of the separation part near the pressurizingpart is provided with a clearance gap; a control valve is arranged on the outer periphery of the front end of the separation screw shaft part and the front end of the separation screw shaft part; a slag discharge gap is arranged; the screw shaft is a hollow screw shaft which is internally provided with an adjusting rod; one end of the transmission shaft is fixedly provided with a connecting part.One end of the adjusting rod is screwed with the connecting part, and the other end of the adjusting rod extends out of the screw shaft and extends out of the flesh separating part. The flesh separating machine makes the inner wall of the flesh separation part and the outer wall of the spiral shaft always in a relatively stable gap fit state, which improves the service life.

A deboning system of meat for a small or intermediate processing factory in which the space is saved while reduction the cost by limiting the processing range of a work thereby limiting the processing functions to those of high necessity. The deboning system of meat comprises a shoulder blade boning station (11) having a specified interval from a charging station (10) and a humerus deboning station (12) having the same interval disposed sequentially and linearly at a constant interval on the downstream side of the charging station (10). A station (13) for discharging the humerus is disposed on the downstream side of the humerus deboning station (12) and a work is tact-carried while being hanged through fixed and movable carrying passages. The work is deboned during the carrying process, and deboned humerus is discharged from a final station (discharging station) (13).

A deboning method and a deboning apparatus is provided whereby a meat block at the humerus part having a part of the scapula remaining therein, which corresponds to the shoulder part of a back split block of an animal meat (for example, beef, pork, horse meat, goat meat or poultry meat), can be completely automatically deboned after a simple pretreatment by human hand.

The invention discloses a processing machine body capable of cutting and boning meat. The processing machine body capable of cutting and boning meat comprises a processing machine body, wherein a processing cavity with a forward opening is formed in the processing machine body. The processing machine body is mainly applied to the daily boning processing of meat, in the processing process, a clamping mechanism is triggered through the movement of a pressed block, then the clamping fit of a part to be processed is achieved, in the moving process of a movable base, through the cooperation of a lifting sliding block and a cutting base, a cutting tool is driven to move downwards to cut the part to be processed, the cutting tool can be rotated through meshing of a driven gear and a driving gearin the cutting process by means of a rotating mechanism, and meanwhile, the final boning treatment can be performed on the part to be processed after cutting through a boning base and a through cavityto obtain complete boneless meat.

A separator apparatus that separates meat from bone in two distinct separation stages includes a rotary cam pump in series with a deboning screw assembly. In the first separation stage, substantially bone-free meat is separated from bone as the meat-bone mixture passes through the rotary cam pump, and expelled from the separator apparatus. The rotary cam pump then drives the remaining meat bone mixture into the deboning screw assembly, where a second separation stage occurs in which additional substantially bone-free meat is separated from bone as the meat-bone mixture passes through the deboning screw assembly, and is also expelled from the separator apparatus. The remaining bone residue is expelled from a bone residue outlet on the separator apparatus. The meat separated during the first stage can have a different coarseness than that separated during the second stage, and each can be expelled and collected at a different location.
