ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for separation of almond kernels where there is a mixture of almond kernels with almond kernels held with or within the shells the method comprising introducing the mixture onto two contra rotating rollers which are rotating upwardly through a separation gap and which have their axis inclined to the horizontal so as to cause feeding of the mixture from an entry location to an exit location, the separation gap being selected so that with the alignment caused by the roller action, almond kernels without shells will pass therethrough while almond kernels with shells will pass along to an exit location. The apparatus provides two contra rotating rollers held the selected distance apart to provide for the separation and being adapted to be contra rotating and includes abutments in the surface to provide an occasional tipping action to almond kernels moving along the surface of the rollers.
