Device for processing fillets of fish

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A skinning machine for double fillets of fish in, which fillets the fish strip containing the fin holders of the dorsal fins has already been separated up to the inside of the skin. The machine comprises a drum against whose circumferential surface the double fillet is clamped by penetration of two round belts which surround part of the drum and penetrate into the said separation. Supported by flat belts arranged below the drum, the double fillet is guided to a triangular-shaped skinning tool held pressed against the circumferential surface, which tool severs the fillet halves from the skin.
