Fruit pitting machine

摘要

A fruit pitting machine apparatus for separating unpitted fruit from pitted fruit having pitting needles which force fruit pits through a pair of springloaded jaws. As a pit is forced through the jaws a pneumatic valve actuates a pneumatic pressure switch which generates electric signals in an electrical memory. If the jaws are not actuated by a pit being forced therethrough an air ejector will eject the unpitted fruit into a separate container following a predetermined positional relay for aligning the unpitted fruit with the ejector.
