Abstract
A machine for sorting fruits, vegetables or other objects according to their transverse dimension, which can be assimilated to a diameter, a machine characterized by at least one endless chain pulling along the machine a series of bottomless baskets, each of which has in its upper part a substantially constant circular section opening and at its base an equally circular opening but whose section is automatically modified to the extent of the passage of the baskets along the machine, each basket being constituted to this effect by elements such as plates with lateral edges converging towards the base, articulated at a fixed point in their upper part and arranged in such a way that all angular displacement imposed on one of the elements - hereinafter referred to as a directing element or guide plate - causes an angular displacement of the same direction and the same value for all other elements or plates, being produced the angular displacements of the director element of each basket by means of a mobile member in contact with a fixed ramp that extends over the entire length of the machine, the profile of this ramp being determined in such a way as to cause the reduction of the dimension of the lower opening of the baskets as they pass through the machine.
