ABSTRACT:
Used single use camera bodies (10) and miscellaneous loose parts (130, 132, 134) are dumped into a receiver conveyor (72) from which they move to a metering conveyor (88) which delivers them to a series of vibratory grid separators (106, 108, 110) having grid bars (124) separated by slots (126) configured such that each camera body can be positioned with at least one lengthwise corner (148-154) located in the slot and the center of gravity (156) of the camera body positioned above the slot. Camera bodies are thus conveyed lengthwise along the vibratory grid separators to enable loose parts to fall more readily through the slots. Camera bodies are then separated by types at a plurality of sorting stations (186).
