  • the rollers 2 are supported by a fixed guide 11, forming part of the said conveyor, which may be of any form and has not been shown.
  • Frame 1 comprises two uprights 4 and 5, the inner sides of which serve as guide rails for guide wheels 7 of a subfrarne 8.
  • Subframe 8 is supported by a fixed guide 10 by means of a roller 9.
  • a pair of rods 13 are mounted on frame 8 by means of a pair of pivot connections 12. About each of these rods a sleeve 14 is present, which sleeves can shift relative to the related rod 13 in their longitudinal directions. Rods l3 bear at their lower sides claws 15 which are rotatably mounted on said rods by means of shafts 16. (Vide also FIGS. 5, 6 and 7).
  • a central support 17 is mounted on the Subframe 8 by means of crossbeams 18 which are stationarily connected with said frame 8 (vide also FIGS. 3 and 4).
  • Support 17 consequently is a vertically movable member. It has on the outside a square diameter and is hollow.
  • a pressure member 19 is guided in support 17.
  • a tension spring 20 is mounted to support 17, said spring 20 being at its lower side connected with two links 21 (FIG. 4).
  • Support 17 further bears a pair of double levers 23 by means of pivot connections 22, said levers having at their upper sides a flat hook portion 24, at the end of which the links 21 are connected.
  • the hook portions 24 can cooperate with a roller 25 which by means of a support 26 is rotatably mounted but for the rest is not movable on a subframe 27, which itself has stationarily been provided on frame 1.
  • Subframe 27 bears guides having an outer guide portion 28 and an inner guide portion 29, each combination 28, 29 serving for guiding one chickens leg to hook said leg into a claw 15 when suspending the chicken.
  • the double levers 23 at their lower sides bear retaining members 30 (FIGS. 3 and 4). Said retaining members are shaped such that when they are positioned above a claw 15 (shown in interrupted lines in FIG. 3), the joint of a chickens leg suspended in claw 15 is well retained.
  • abutment 31 which is fixedly connected to the double lever 23 and can engage the side ofa sleeve 14.

  • Sleeves 14 lean on the shafts 44 by means of the upper limitation of the slots 45. Consequently they can move up and down along the height of the slots 45 relative to the rods, by which they can come from the position shown in FIG. 5 into that of FIG. 6, which causes release and tilt of the claws 15, because the ends 14' of the sleeves no longer prevent the right hand supporting planes of the claws thereof from rotating counter clockwise about shafts 16.
  • the rollers 46 can cooperate with guides 47 (vide FIG. 1), which are fixedly connected with frame I. Said guides 47 in their upper portions converge downwards, whereas their lower portions are mutually parallel. Furthermore, said guides 47 bear upper and lower stops 48 and 49 respectively which can cooperate with abutment members 50 each connected to a sleeve 14. In the position, in which the abutment member 50 is adjacent stop 48 (FIG. 2) rods 13 have, relative to sleeves 14, been shifted upwards and the rods and the claws are in the position of FIG. 5. When, on the other hand, the abutment member 50 is adjacent stop 49 and rod 13 has been shifted downwards relative to sleeve 14, claw 15 is swung downwards as is shown in FIG. 6.
  • rollers 46 cooperate with the converging portions of guides 47, so that sleeves 14 with rods 13 swing inwards until they reach the position of FIG. 4.
  • a further descend of guide 10 thereupon sees to it that frame 8 can move downwards even farther, with which, however, no further swinging movement or rods 13 or sleeves 14 takes place, because guides 47 then are mutually parallel.
  • Sleeve 64, 65 for instance may be cylindrical, that is to say having an inner surface that in each point contains a straight line, which lines are mutually parallel or funnel-shaped. It may be provided with movable parts or completely be stationary.
  • pawl hook 37 is caused to cooperate with a stationary control cam 76, by which said pawl hook rotates about pivot connection 36 to the right and rod 19 can shift downwards in sleeve 17.
  • cloaca-pressure member 77 which is mounted on the lower side of rod 19 contacts the chicken between the legs at the location of the cloaca. Hook 40 grips into the teeth of toothed rack 41 (FIG. 9).
  • guide 10 causes a continued downward movement of frame 8 relative to frame 1.
  • rod 19 with cloaca pressure member 77 cannot move upwards relative to claws 15.
