Abstract

PURPOSE:To select or distribute objects transported, by allowing a receipt plate to fall down at either selection or distribution position on the way of transportation, and thereby sending off the object surely and quickly. CONSTITUTION:Fruit 3 (object transported) is placed on the leader end of the oversurface of each receipt plate 4 moving together with an endless belt 1 traveling in one direction, and a control device determines an exhaust chute position of the fruit on the basis of measurements for the selective divisions of the fruit given by the sensor position under transportation, and when the fruit 3 has come up to this chute, a command from the control device relieves the magnetic force of an electric magnet 11 so as to tilt the receipt plate 4 downward with the aid of a spring 10, that will send off the fruit 3 loaded selectively to the chute aside. At this time several pieces of receipt plates before and after the one bearing the fruit 3 are tilted simultaneously.

The object (3) to be transported is placed on the receiving plate (4) maintained in a horizontal position and transported, and at the sorting position or distribution position during this transportation, the receiving plate (4) is ), the transported object (3) is laid down to one side, and the transported object (3) is rolled out, and when it is not rolled out, the transported object (3) is maintained in a horizontal state, thereby preventing complex structures such as link mechanisms. This type of conveyor device can perform the process accurately and quickly without causing any damage, and can simplify the configuration of the ups and downs of the receiving plate (4) provided in large numbers along the endless body (1), and generates a large amount of dust. It is possible to reduce the number of failures in a single runt, such as a fruit sorting device, in which a fruit sorting device is installed.
