CA 2111227

Apparatus for mechanically and automatically processing a bivalve shellfish having a first shell (11) an second shell (12) so as to recover an edible portion (30) of the shellfish. The apparatus includes suction caps (55, 56) to part the two shells (11,12) without completely separating the two shells. Flexible detach- ing blades (21, 22) enter the space between the two shells and diverge to contact and to follow the inner surfaces (11a, 12a) of the shells to cut the edible por- tion (30) of the shellfish from both the first shell (11) and the second shell (12) simultaneously. The blades (21,22) then grip the edible portion to enable recovery thereof and the shells are discarded.
