ABSTRACT:
Brushing apparatus for cleaning and polishing farm produce includes three rotating cylindrical helical brushes forming a brush channel. The brushes rotate in the same direction but at different speeds to clean and polish the produce, and to "walk" it along the brush channel. The brush bristles are the only things touching the produce, and the sole way by which produce is moved along the brush channel. The brushes and brush channel are adjustable up or down from the horizontal to control the throughput rate of articles of produce.
