Abstract
A method for mechanical gutting of fish and device for execution of the method are disclosed, whereby the inner organs are removed via the fish's oral cavity (mouth) without opening the fish's abdomen. The inner organs are extracted with the aid of a vacuum. A tool is inserted into the fish through the oral cavity and removes the kidneys of the fish (blood ribbon) and the membrane which covers the kidneys. The tools of the device are connected to suitable drive systems of known types and are generally located concentrically about a straight center line and arranged so as to be moveable linearly along and rotatably about this line.
