ABSTRACT:
A sorting machine feeds longitudinally aligned carrots onto a transversely directed sloping conveyer. The conveyer, after first positioning one end of each carrot against a baseboard, transports the carrots past progressively longer supporting rods parallel to but progressively displaced from the baseboard. The rods allow progressively incrementally longer carrots to drop through the conveyer into one of several bins. Thereby, each bin is filled with carrots of less than a predetermined length, which length is commensurate with the displacement from the baseboard of a respective one of the supporting rods.
