摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To arrange the direction of free trays carrying agricultural products thereon in a fixed direction and carry the trays into a light transmitting detector in a selection apparatus. ;SOLUTION: Direction arranging planar parts 6131, either one of which is engaged with a direction arranging guide rail 76 extending along a transfer direction, are provided on a plane circular-shaped receiving tray 6. Driving type short rollers 72 and driving type long rollers 73, which transfer the receiving tray 6, are parallely connected to one another, and the transfer speed of the latter rollers is set faster. The direction arranging guide rail 76, which is engaged with the planar part 6131 of the receiving tray, is provided so that the receiving tray 6 delivered onto the short rollers 72 is gradually moved onto the long rollers 73 along an inclined part 762 of the guide rail. A straight part 763 of the guide rail, which is disposed on the long rollers 73, is designed so as to be engaged with the planar part 6131 of the receiving tray.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1999,JPO
