The invention relates to separating equipment, in particular to movable sway-type separating equipment for hardware steel balls, and aims at solving the technical problem that the movable sway-type separating equipment for hardware steel balls, which is relatively thorough in screening and less in consumed time and manual labor in operation, is not provided. The invention provides such the movablesway-type separating equipment for hardware steel balls, which comprises a mounting rack, a mounting rod, a first sliding rail, first sliders, a mounting plate, a connecting plate, a first spring, aseparating box, a handle, a screen and the like; the middle part of the upper side face of the mounting rack is provided with the mounting rod; the top end of the mounting rod is provided with the first sliding rail; and the left part and the right part of the first sliding rail are both connected with the first sliders glidingly. The effects that screening is relatively thorough, and the consumedtime and manual labor are less in operation are achieved by the separating equipment provided by the invention; by installing a motor, the separating box does not need to be manually pulled to move horizontally, so that the effect of reducing manual labor consumption is achieved; and by installing a placement hopper and a movable plate, the steel balls can discharge intermittently, so that the effect that screening is relatively thorough is achieved.
