The invention relates to a device for sorting products, which device comprises adjacently arranged supporting units which are movable in a direction of transport along a conveying path, each supporting unit being provided with at least one load carrying platform comprising a supporting surface for supporting a product. The load carrying platform is supported by a support member, which can be tilted by tilting means about an axis of tilt parallel to the conveying path with respect to a conveying element forming part of a supporting unit, which conveying element is movable along a guide extending according to said conveying path. The tilting means comprise at least one cam which can be rotated by drive means about an axis of rotation extending parallel to the axis of tilt, spaced from said cam by some distance, during which rotation the cam moves over a camway so as to cause the support member to tilt about the axis of tilt, between a neutral position and an extreme position, through rotation of the cam about the axis of rotation.
