TITLE: Method and apparatus for beheading fish, and method and apparatus for extracting roe or milt from a fish. ABSTRACT: An apparatus for beheading fish comprises a supporting plate 10, a cover plate 12, and a fluid bag 13 with a fluid inlet 14. The apparatus is open at both ends, and the fish is placed with the head free. Fluid under pressure is thereafter introduced through the inlet 14 into the fluid bag 13 which is thereby inflated to the shape as shown. As the bag is resilient, but is confined between the fish and the supporting plate 10 and the cover plate 12, respectively, the fish will thereby be seized between the bag and the supporting plate. An extremely effective and firm mechanical seizure of the fish is thereby achieved, even under moist, slimy or slippery conditions likely to prevail where fish are be- ing processed. When the fish is seized by an appropriate pressure in the fluid bag 13, it is held so firmly that the head can be torn off. This is performed by means of the tool seen to the right in the figure and which comprises a plane abutment plate 16 which is pushed in below the front edge of the supporting plate 10, a pivotal gripping jaw 15, being shown in the figure in its free position above the fish approximately a- breast of the gill cover 4. If also the ear bone of the fish is removed, the roe can be removed from the fish by increasing the fluid pressure in the bag, so that the roe is squeezed out. The invention also comprises methods for beheading fish and for ex- traction of roe or milt from a fish.
