Abstract
A shackle assembly ( ) transports poultry carcasses along a poultry processing line. Turning block ( ) turns the stirrups ( ) of the shackle in response to engagement with turning pins ( ) that are located along the processing path, so as to properly orient the bird carried by the shackle to the next cutting station. One of the side wings ( ) of the turning block ( ) is relieved such that its turning slots will not engage the turning pin, thereby avoiding the turning of the stirrups. This assures that the stirrups, and therefore the bird carried by the stirrups, are properly oriented for the next cutting station.
