Book Description
Excerpt from Evaluation of a Hydrohandling System for Sorting and Sizing Apples for Storage in Pallet Boxes The accumulator comes to rest on the rotating frame in the tank while the pallet box is submerged to the bottom of the tank. When one accumulator has been filled, the submerging conveyor is momentarily turned off while the accumulators are rotated 180° on the rotating rack. With the empty accumulator positioned over the submerging conveyor, the conveyor is restarted. The filled accumulator is now over the empty pallet box. When the lifting mechanism raises the pallet box, it also lifts the filled accumulator and as the unit is removed from the water, the apples settle from the accumulator into the pallet box. At the top of the lift, the pallet box is in line with roller tracks and is rolled away as another box is rolled in to repeat the cycle.
