AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT SELECTING DEVICE

To provide an agricultural product selecting device that prevents a plurality of agricultural products from overlapping with each other, at front and rear sides in a conveying direction in the course of conveying the plurality of agricultural products, and prevents the agricultural products from positionally shifting.SOLUTION: An agricultural product selecting device 1 comprises conveying means 4 that conveys a plurality of agricultural products 2 and selecting means 6 that selects respective qualities of the agricultural products 2 in the course of conveying the agricultural products 2 by the conveying means 4. The conveying means 4 is a roller conveyor in which a plurality of rollers 44 are rotatably provided, where an alignment section 202 for aligning the plurality of agricultural products is set at an upstream side in the conveying direction in the conveying means 4. The roller conveyor as the conveying means 4 is provided with driving means (11 and 12) which allow the plurality of rollers 44, passing through the alignment section 202, to respectively rotate alternately in a forward direction and in a backward direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】複数の農作物の搬送過程において複数の農作物が搬送方向の前後に重なることを防止するとともに、農作物の位置ずれを防止する農作物選別装置の提供。【解決手段】農作物選別装置１は、複数の農作物２を搬送する搬送手段４と、搬送手段４による農作物２の搬送方向の途中で農作物２それぞれの品質を選定する選定手段６と、を備えている農作物選別装置１であって、搬送手段４は、複数のローラ４４が自転可能に設けられるローラコンベアとされており、搬送手段４において搬送方向の上流側には、複数の農作物を整列させるための整列区間２０２が設けられており、搬送手段４としてのローラコンベアにおいて整列区間２０２を通過する複数のローラ４４それぞれを交互に正方向と逆方向とに自転させる駆動手段（１１，１２）を備えている。【選択図】図１
