PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an agricultural product sorting device, which gives a high sorting precision and excellent working efficiency, by eliminating water from a sorting belt to prevent disturbance in detection or detection error of agricultural products caused by adherence of a conveyor belt to a weight detector.SOLUTION: The agricultural product sorting device includes: an endless conveyor belt 68 for conveying agricultural products a grade detector 75 for grading farm products on the endless conveyor belt 68 a delivery device 84 for delivering, by the endless conveyor belt 68, the farm products which have been detected to be suitable for the set grade and a collection part 93 for collecting the farm products delivered from the delivery device 84. In the apparatus, a discharging path 110 for discharging water entered in between the endless conveyor belt 68 and the grade detector 75 is formed on a grade determination plate 78. Also, the discharging path 110 is formed in the direction along with or the perpendicular direction to the conveying direction of the endless conveyor belt 68, while the width of the discharging path 110 is formed to be widening from the front end and the rare end of the flow down direction and the depth is formed deeper from the front end and the rare end of the flow down direction.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】選別ベルトから水を除去することにより、搬送ベルトが重量検知装置に貼り付いて作物の検出を妨げたり誤検出したりすることを防止し、選別精度が高く作業能率の良い作物選別装置を提供する。【解決手段】作物を搬送する搬送無端帯68と、搬送無端帯68で作物の等級を検知する等級検知装置75と、設定した等級に該当する作物を検知すると搬送無端帯68で搬送中の作物を送り出す送出装置84と、送出装置84より送り出された作物を回収する回収部93を設けた作物選別装置において、搬送無端帯68と等級検知装置75の間に進入した水を排出する排出経路110を等級判別板78に形成し、排出経路110を搬送無端帯68の搬送方向に沿った方向、または直交方向に形成し、排出経路110の幅を流下方向前端から後端に向かって広く形成し、深さを流下方向前端から後端に向かって深く形成する。【選択図】 図21
