This utility model belongs to the field of apple feeding technology, and in particular to a feeding device for an apple sorting
machine. It includes a base, a horizontal plate on top of the base, and a lifting
assembly for raising and lowering the horizontal plate. Two vertical plates are symmetrically fixed to the top of the horizontal plate, and a U-shaped plate is positioned between the two vertical plates. Rotating shafts are fixed to both side walls of the U-shaped plate, and each rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the side wall of the adjacent vertical plate via bearings. This utility model, by setting up a base, horizontal plate, lifting
assembly, vertical plates, U-shaped plate, rotating shafts, drive
assembly, placement slot, and clamping assembly, can clamp and fix apple crates to the horizontal plate, and can raise and deflect the apple crates, thereby allowing the apples in the crates to be poured into the sorting
machine. This eliminates the need for manual labor to pour the apples into the sorting
machine, thus reducing the labor intensity of workers and providing good performance.
