Sammendrag:
The invention relates to an apparatus (1) for releasing the skin (3) of a body (2) of a dead, furred animal, such as a mink,
from the carcass (4) of the animal body (2) at the rear end of the animal body (2). The apparatus comprises a control
arrangement (10) for controlling the apparatus (1), a holding arrangement (7a, 7b, 70) for holding the dead animal body in
said apparatus, a releasing device (5), and drive means (6) configured to be controlled by the control arrangement (10).
The drive means (6) are configured for providing a first releasing operation by a relative movement (M1) between the
animal body and the releasing device (5) in the longitudinal direction (LD) of the animal body to move the releasing device
(5) from a first position (POS1) outside said animal body, into an opening at the rear end (2b) of the animal body to a
second position (POS2) so as to release the skin (3) from the carcass (4) at the belly side of the animal body. The
apparatus (1) moreover comprises releasing units (8a, 8b) to be displaced by moving means (17) in between the animal
skin (3) and the carcass (4) ahead of the hind legs (9a, 9b) from the belly side of the animal body (2) by a relative
movement (M2) between said animal body (2) and said releasing units (8a, 8b). At least one of said releasing units (8a, 8b)
are configured to be operated to a releasing position (RP) by means of said control arrangement (10) so that it at least
partly extend at the back side of said animal body (2), and the control arrangement (10) is configured to operate drive
means (6) to provide a second releasing operation by a relative movement (M3) between the animal body (2) and the
releasing units (8a, 8b). The invention moreover relates to a method of releasing the skin (3) of a body (2) of a dead,
furred animal, such as a mink, from the carcass (4) of the animal body (2).
