不確実となりやすい欠点がある。(Issue g to be solved by the invention) However, in this conventional method, in order to reverse the eggs on the roller conveyor and change the orientation, the roller conveyor must be modified in many ways, resulting in a complicated device structure. They have the disadvantage that they tend to have the same number and require a large space. Furthermore, since the unique shape and center of gravity of the eggs are used to line them up on the roller conveyor, there is a drawback that the alignment of the eggs tends to be uncertain.

のである。(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the method for arranging chicken eggs of the present invention involves placing chicken eggs on two rails provided in parallel with a predetermined interval, so that the long axis of the eggs is approximately perpendicular to the rails. Then, each egg is pushed and rolled in the above state to move it on the rail.
At the end of the rail, the egg is placed on a narrow holder that extends from the center between the rails in the direction of rail extension, and the egg is balanced on the holder so that the egg falls with the sharp end facing downward. .
