Abstract
A fish scale removal apparatus (100) utilizes a rotary motor, which is encased in a cylindrical housing and rotates a blade coupling member (104). The apparatus (100) is designed to rotate at a speed of 1,500-2,500 RPMs. A scale removing blade assembly (120, 150) having a shaft (122, 152) and a plurality of planar blades (124, 154) is assembled to the apparatus (100) by inserting a coupling end (126) of the shaft into the blade coupling member (104). The planar blades (124, 154) have a width (W) that is substantially greater than the thickness (T) allowing the blade to flex.
