Abstract: Se describe un aparato clasificador, y que incluye una superficie transportadora que transporta un flujo de productos agrícolas para inspección. La superficie transportadora tiene diversas regiones formadas en parte de protuberancias, depresiones y aberturas que reducen el peso del flujo de productos agrícolas, así como reduce los componentes de movimiento horizontal y vertical del flujo de productos agrícolas a medida que el flujo de productos agrícolas progresa de un extremo a otro. Una superficie de separación de producto está montada cerca del extremo distal de la superficie transportadora, y el flujo de productos agrícolas pasa sobre la superficie de separación de producto, y es alentado de manera que el flujo de productos agrícolas cae hacia abajo sustancialmente vertical de inmediato. Una zona de inspección se localiza descendente con relación a la superficie de separación de producto. Un dispositivo de formación de imágenes se proporciona, y el cual forma imágenes del flujo de productos agrícolas que pasa a través de la zona de inspección; se proporciona un dispositivo de iluminación para iluminar el flujo de productos agrícolas que pasa a través de la zona de inspección, y un montaje de expulsión que se localiza descendente de la zona de inspección y que retira el material sólido no deseado en el flujo de productos agrícolas que tiene características indeseables.

Abstract: A cutting apparatus is disclosed and which includes a cutter knife which is reciprocally moveable along a path of travel, a track member mounted adjacent to the cutter knife, and which mechanically cooperates with the cutter knife so as to define, at least in part, a first non-cutting position, and the second, cutting position for the cutter knife, and a magnet mounted on the track member and which releasably magnetically restrains the cutter knife when the cutter knife is in either of the first non-cutting position, or the second, cutting position.

Abstract: A cutting wheel assembly (100) for cutting elongated articles having a cylindrical housing (101) which defines a longitudinal cavity (102) and a circular outer periphery (103). A plurality of cutting blade support rings (180) are rotatably mounted about the outer periphery of the housing (101). A plurality of cutting blades (170) are mounted for radial mouvement on each ring and and disposed at angularly spaced increments about the housing, wherein each blade is moveable between a first, non-cutting position and a second, cutting positon. A manifold and valve assembly (130) is mounted in t he cavity and proximate the cutting blades for selectively directing a pulse of fluid against individual blades at preselected angular positions to urge the blades outwardly from the non-cutting position to the cutting position. A plurality of camming components (183) are positioned about the periphery of the housing and secured against rotation adjacent the rings. The camming components include tracking grooves (184) for receiving portions of the blad es which guide the blades along the cutting and non-cutting positions, and whic h maintain the blades in the cutting position without continued presence of th e fluid.

Abstract: A high speed mass flow food sorting apparatus and method comprises a product conveyor for receiving and conveying a laterally-distributed stream of bulk food articles past a product diverter. A camera is positioned to view the stream of food articles upstream of a product diverter. A sorting system downstream of the camera including a product diverter is configured to divert undesirable product in response to optically detected undesirable characteristics pursuant to an automated control system. The automated control system connects to the optical inspection system and the sorting system and includes an operator control console having a display and a screen-adjustable graphical slider usable for altering sorting characteristics corresponding to an undesirable optically detected characteristic so as to direct sorting of the undesirable food article during processing. Preferably, the operator control console displays a graphical user interface via a computer on which the control system is implemented and includes a software application pack specifically configured for processing a particular type of food article having corresponding desirable features, at least one having a corresponding screen-adjustable scaling image.

Abstract: Described herein is an automated quality inspection station for evaluating color component characteristics of a product. The inspection station includes a color video camera, for capturing video frames of product images, and a control system for analyzing those video frames. The control system is programmed to perform a reference calibration and then a sample calibration. During the reference calibration an operator identifies component type areas from a displayed reference frame of a typical product assortment. The control system calculates color value density curves from the identified areas. The density curves are then calibrated to each other by scaling each of the density curves by a scaling factor. The scaling factors can either be provided directly by the operator or default values can be calculated by the control system. Default scaling factor values are calculated by summing the product of the corresponding density curve and an overall histogram of a sample video frame over a range of color values. Individual pixels are classified as one of a plurality of component types according to the highest calibrated density curve at the pixels' color value.

Abstract: The preferred embodiment described in this application is a forced-steam cooker/blancher 100 for cooking or blanching a depth of bulk food particles by supporting the food particles on an extended perforated particle support surface 122 and by forcing steam through said depth of bulk food particles and through perforated particle support surface 122. The cooker/blancher includes walls 138 extending upwardly from particle support surface 122. Particle support surface 1 22 is perforated to allow fluid passage therethrough. Pressure means is included fo r forcing steam through a depth of food particles 141 contained within walls 138 o n support surface 122 and through perforated particle support surface 122.
