ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A body of a butchered animal suspended at its hind legs by suspension conveying means is conveyed by means of a conveying table to a station for splitting the body into two halves along the spine, where the body and the conveying table become stationary and the body is turned through 90 degrees in a splitting position between body supporting means and pusher means which is indexed with the conveying table, so that the back of the body will face the body supporting means. Then, sensing means senses the presence of the body in the splitting position and actuates the body supporting means to bring it to an operative position to support the body, while the pusher means is also actuated to urge push rods extending through the conveying table into contact with the body to clamp it tightly to the body supporting means. At the same time, driving box mounting a saw therein and located behind the body supporting means moves downwardly along a guide frame from its uppermost position and the saw is automatically rotated to cut into the body, while water is splashed against the body, to thereby complete the splitting of the body when the driving box has reached its lowermost position. Upon completion of the splitting of the body, the driving box means is moved upwardly to its uppermost position and the body supporting means and the pusher means are returned to their inoperative position, while the conveying table is restored to its original position. A body splitting operation can be perform efficiently with a minimum of manual attention in a sanitary condition.
