PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a selective conveyor of fruits and vegetables with which durability of a selective cup is increased and quality detection is improved. SOLUTION: An automatic feed conveyor 21 and selective conveyors 8, ...are disposed from a starting edge side to a terminal side in series. A quality inspecting sensor 19 is arranged in the middle of the selective conveyors 8, ..., plural extracting conveyors 22, ... are arranged below the terminal side and fruits to be selected are classified to plural quality grades based on detection information by the quality inspecting sensor 19 and are carried out from the selective cups 8a, ... of the selective conveyor 8 to the extracting conveyors 22, .... In the selective conveyor 8, the selective cups 8a, ... are axially supported at prescribed intervals and are constituted so as to be rotatable from a horizontal supporting posture to a posture rotated somewhat downward where the fruits to be selected are dropped and discharged. Further, over an extent from a joint part with the automatic feed conveyor 21 to an inspecting position of a quality inspecting sensor 24, an impulse absorbing conveyor 23 for transporting the selective cups 8a, ... in the same direction while supporting the cups in a horizontal state, is disposed.
