Abstract
A poultry skinning machine for removing the skin from poultry parts utilizes rollers having inter-engaging helical teeth that laterally transport the poultry parts while removing the skin from the product. The rollers act in cooperation with a cover means having a shearing section disposed in a substantially bearing relationship along at least a portion of the rollers adjacent their ends. The shearing section facilitates separating the product from detaching skin whereby roller clogging is avoided by directing skin through a receiving gap formed between end bearing means. The skinned product is at the same time conveyed atop the closely fitting shear section.
