PURPOSE:To smoothly and accurately accomplish sideward shifting regardless of the kind and size of fruits by providing a sideward shifting portion connected to the downstream side of an align and feed portion of the above apparatus, which comprises right and left sideward shifting belts wider at the terminal end side than at the starting end side. CONSTITUTION:The above apparatus comprises a constant amount feed portion and an align and feed portion which are sequentially disposed on the downstream side of a select conveyor, and further a transfer portion, a sideward shifting portion 7 and a take-out portion which are sequentially disposed on the downstream side of the align and feed portion. In this case, the sideward shifting portion 7 comprises a pair of right and left sideward shifting belts 38 and a feed-out endless belt 30 forming the base portion. The respective sideward shifting belts 38 are wrapped round pulleys 36, 37 disposed on the start end side 42 and the terminal end side 43. The pulley 36 is supported on a vertical shaft 44 on stationary side, and the pulley 37 is supported on a vertical shaft 45 on forward end side of a rod 48 turned round the vertical shaft 44. The interval between the rods 48 of both sideward shifting belts 38 is adjusted by turning a turnbuckle 54. |
