CPC A01F 12/446 (2013.01) [A01F 7/02 (2013.01); A01F 11/00 (2013.01)] | 9 Claims |
1. An apparatus for automatically separating fine-sized seeds comprising:
a hopper where a plant object for seed separation is introduced;
a crushing separator disposed below the hopper, configured to crush the plant object being introduced from the hopper and physically separate the seeds from the plant object;
a cyclone part configured to receive the seeds and non-seed plant objects, which are crushed and separated in the crushing separator, such that by cyclone flow, the seeds sink and lighter-weighted non-seed plant objects float therein, thereby initiating separation of the seeds from the non-seed plant objects; and
a strainer filter part that is mounted to a lower end of the cyclone part and configured to pass the seeds through a strainer filter, thereby spatially separating the seeds from the non-seed plant objects,
wherein the strainer filter part is detachably mounted to the lower end of the cyclone part, such that a pore size of the strainer filter is adjustable.
