Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for automatically separating fine-sized seeds including a hopper where a plant object for seed separation is introduced, a crushing separator disposed below the hopper, to crush the plant object being introduced from the hopper and physically separate the seeds from the plant object, a cyclone part that the seeds and non-seed plant objects, which are crushed and separated in the crushing separator, are introduced, and by cyclone flow, the heavy seeds sink whereas the light-weighted non-seed plant objects float inside, thereby separating the seeds from the rest of plant debris, and a strainer filter part that is mounted to a lower end of the cyclone part and passes the seeds through a strainer filter, thereby spatially separating the seeds from the rest of plant debris.
