Apparatus for the automated removal of cores from vegetables, especially floretting vegetables, comprises conveyor means (13, 14) including vegetable supports (15) for indexed advancing of vegetables (35) from a loading station (A) to a cutting station (B) and a cutting head assembly comprising one or more cutter elements (23) movable in a core-excision cutting movement, in which the cutting head assembly is movable between a cutting position in registration with a vegetable support in the cutting station and a core discharge position displaced from the pass of the conveyor means. The apparatus may be single- or multi-lane. The cutter blades may be formed as lobes (23) which retain the excised cores in the closed-together condition pending ejection at the discharge position.

Cet appareil, destiné à l'enlèvement automatique du coeur d'un légume, notamment d'un légume à inflorescence charnue, comprend des moyens de transport (13, 14) présentant des supports (15) de légumes (35), destinés à acheminer ceux-ci de manière cadencée, d'un poste (A) de chargement à un poste (B) de coupe, ainsi qu'un ensemble tête de coupe comportant un ou plusieurs éléments (23) coupants, mobiles, excisant le coeur par un mouvement de coupe. Cet appareil est caractérisé en ce que l'ensemble tête de coupe est mobile entre une position de coupe, alignée sur un support de légume, dans le poste de coupe, et une position de décharge du coeur éloignée du passage des moyens de transport. Cet appareil peut présenter une ou plusieurs voies d'acheminement. Les lames coupantes peuvent revêtir la forme de lobes (23), lesquels retiennent les coeurs excisés dans l'espace clos qu'ils définissent quand ils sont l'un contre l'autre, en attente de l'éjection de ces coeurs au niveau de la position de déchargement.
