Abstract

The device comprises supply means (1, 2, 4, 5) for supplying cullet to be sorted (3) to the upper part (7) of a translucid inclined plane (6), an elongate light source (9), a detection camera (K) with an integrated charge coupling circuit and injection hammers (10) which may occupy a rest position (10a) wherein they conduct the glass lumps (12a) towards a ''glass'' outlet (15) and which may take an active position (12b) wherein they conduct the infusible lumps (12b) towards an ''infusible'' outlet (13).
