Abstract

The machine consists of pairs of pulley-like sorting plates (2) fastened parallel to a driven shaft (3). An oscillating conveyor (4) has a corrugated oscillating table (5) for pre-sorting and supply of goods (6) in rows to the plates. Goods sorted dependent upon diameter are moved into collection channels (7), and these act with conveyor belts (8) leading to transport crates. The plates have clamping areas (10) of different diameters, with elastic lips to protect the goods.

Die Beschickung in notwendiger Reihenanordnung (Gänsemarsch) erfolgt über Förderer mit Trennbarrieren in Förderrichtung.
Vorteile der Erfindung sind die kompakte Bauweise,die große Kapazität,der kontinuierliche, störungsfreie Lauf und der produktschonende Sortiervorgang.The invention relates to a pair of plates that sit on a rotating shaft. It is similar to the arrangement of V-belt pulleys of different sizes, here called plate pair, on the same line of symmetry perpendicular to the shaft. The clear distance between the pair of plates is reduced towards the shaft.
The material to be sorted is conveyed to the highest point of the pair of plates between the plates, the pieces fall between the plates up to / to the appropriate clamping radius, describe a radial path of approx. 90 ° depending on the size of the plate, release due to size due to gravity and are appropriately arranged and shaped gutters forwarded.
The loading in the necessary row arrangement (single file) takes place via conveyors with separating barriers in the conveying direction.
Advantages of the invention are the compact design, the large capacity, the continuous, trouble-free operation and the product-friendly sorting process.
