The utility model discloses a shell cracking device for snails. The device is used for conveniently separating the snails. The device is characterized by comprising a shell (5). A feed channel (6) is arranged above an opening of the shell (5), and a receiving hopper (3) is arranged below the opening of the shell (5). A compression roller (2) driven by a power device to rotate is arranged in the shell (5). Bumps (1) are arranged on the surface of the compression roller (2). The device is simple in structure and high in machining capacity; and shells of the snails which are cured are cracked in an extrusion shell cracking way, so that damage to snail flesh during extrusion shell cracking is avoided.
