DEVICE FOR SORTING A HARVESTED STREAM OF FRUIT IN BUNCHES AND SEPARATION SYSTEM FURTHER INTEGRATING A DESTEMMING DEVICE

摘要

A device (1) for sorting a harvested stream of fruit in bunches is mounted in a harvesting machine. The sorting device includes at least two transverse sorter bars (3) driven with a cyclic relative movement, the cyclic relative movement enabling longitudinal displacement of the stream over the bars, while opening passages (4) between them. The passages allow detached berries to drop under the sorting device.
