Nozzle for poultry washer

An improved nozzle for poultry washer for cleansing by pressurized liquid the ventral cavity of an eviscerated bird carcass comprising an elongated nozzle assembly divided into a distal region and a proximal region, said nozzle assembly including a central tube, said tube having a first end extending longitudinally beyond said distal region, said tube being closed at said first end with a rounded cap, said tube having, a second end extending longitudinally beyond said proximal region, said tube having means at said second end to be fluidly connected to a source of pressurized liquid, said distal region having a rotatable cylinder about said central tube defining a concentric annular space between said cylinder and said tube, said central tube having a orifice means to permit pressurized liquid to flow out of said central tube and into said space, said space having sealing means at the ends of the cylinder to prevent leakage of pressurized liquid therefrom, said cylinder having a plurality of tangential orifices whereby pressurized liquid released from said space through said orifices rotates said cylinder and provides pressurized liquid to clean said ventral cavity, said proximal region including spaced first and second plates, said first plate and second plates extend radially from said central tube, said first plate being proximate said distal region, said first plate having conduit means, said central tube having orifice means to be in fluid connection with said conduit means of said first plate, said first plate having at least one orifice whereby pressurized fluid may spray therefrom into said ventral cavity, said spaced first plate and said second plate being connected by oppositely disposed first and second ribs, at least one of said ribs having a radially extending portion extending in increasing dimension from said first plate thereby said rib may impinge on said breast portion of said ventral cavity when said nozzle assembly is employed.
