Abstract
A fish guiding device is provided for guiding fish for processing in fish filleting machines particularly before and during the fish processing cut. The device includes guiding elements which engage the flanks of the fish and are spread apart by the latter in a counter-directed pivoting movement. The guiding elements are provided with a further degree of freedom in the form of a counter-directed swivelling movement about an axis extending substantially parallel to the fish path. Such movement enables the guiding elements to adapt to the flanks of the fish fed between them and positions the ventral fin in a precise position for removal even when the belly opening cut runs unsymmetrically.
