摘要： Apparatus for repositioning eggs from a generally vertical position to a generally horizontal position such that injection/removal of material into/from the side of the egg can occur. Each apparatus may include a cradle, an alignment member, and an orientation member. The cradle has an inclined, arcuate surface with an upper portion, a lower portion, and opposite side portions. The alignment member is operably positioned adjacent the cradle and is configured to engage an egg positioned on the arcuate surface lower portion in an inclined orientation and to releasably secure the egg in a predetermined alignment relative to the cradle. The orientation member is operably positioned relative to the cradle, and is configured to urge an egg positioned on the lower portion in an inclined orientation to a generally vertical orientation after injection/removal of material into/from the egg has occurred.
