Title:
CASING AND FEEDING APPARATUS FOR AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002240806
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a casing and feeding apparatus for agricultural products with which an impact to be applied to the products at casing and feeding can be sufficiently buffered to reliably prevent the products from getting damaged.

The easing and feeding apparatus includes a rotatable hopper which is formed to have an approximately sectorial cross section with a guide member having an arcuate guide and side plate members provided at both ends of the guide member and equipped with a supply port and a discharge port on both sides along the arc, and a support plate provided in the hopper with its tip rotatable along the arcuate guide. The hopper guides the agricultural products supported by the support plate by the rotation of the support plate stepwise toward the discharge port along the arcuate guide, rotatably separates from the support plate and opens the discharge port, thereby discharging the products in the hopper for feeding. The hopper and the support plate are provided to be capable of rising/lowering, wherein a predetermined distance is set between an agricultural product feeding apparatus positioned upward and an agricultural product conveyer for casing which is positioned downward by their rising/lowering.
