摘要

PURPOSE: A fruit load tray halt and empty tray ejecting device of a fruit tray conveyor is provided to maximize the work efficiency of the conveyor by quickly ejecting empty trays regardless of the transfer rate of the conveyor. CONSTITUTION: A fruit load tray halt and empty tray ejecting device of a fruit tray conveyor is installed on the end of a fruit shipment position(S). Fruit load trays(T1) carried by transfer conveyors(11a,11b) are halted at the fruit shipment position and fruit is unloaded from the trays. The device receives an empty tray detection signal from empty tray sensors(13a,13b), and ejects empty trays(T2) through an opened delivery gate(G) to an empty tray return conveyor(12).
