US Patent:
2014007, Mar 13, 2014
Filed:
Apr 17, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/865112
Inventors:
Annelouise Hemingway - Jefferson GA, US
Mark Schwieg - Jefferson GA, US
International Classification:
A47J 43/14
US Classification:
426490, 99497
Abstract:
Disclosed are apparatus and methods for separating an egg yolk from a whole egg. Embodiments of the disclosure are described as having a vacuum-producing means coupled to a hollow cavity portion which has a yolk-entry aperture. After placing the yolk-entry aperture against a portion of the egg yolk, the vacuum-producing means may be operated to draw the egg yolk through the yolk-entry aperture thereby creating a shearing force between egg yolk and egg white that is effective for separating yolk from white. The separated yolk may be retained in the apparatus until expelled. Other described embodiments incorporate a yolk-retention aperture that is effective for both separating egg yolk from egg white and also retaining the separated egg yolk in the apparatus until expelled.
