Abstract

Machine for harvesting citrus fruits for harvesting fruit from plants such as trees or shrubs. The harvesting machine uses a shaker head which makes a vertical brush oscillate, with rotation. A shaker frame is able to rotate about a wide arc which makes it possible to reach more than half the tree in a single pass. The other half of the tree may be reached by the brush in a pass in the opposite direction. The harvester machine also uses elevators for raising the brush to a suitable height for harvesting fruit from trees.
