US Patent 7472647 Egg separators

Egg separators having an upper elongated slit to prevent the yolk of an egg from entering a collection device for egg whites. The device provides for a method that will allow multiple separations of egg whites from egg yolks upon cracking individual eggs. The presence of an upper elongated slit in the concave compartments of the device allows the egg white of the eggs to separate from the egg yolks without the egg yolk entering a collection device and/or mixing, merging or flowing into the collected egg whites.
