ROTARY PICKER OF CUCURBITS CROPS WITH PITCHED TRAY Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A01D51/00 

FIELD: agriculture; machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agricultural machine building, particularly, to machines intended for continuous harvesting of cucurbits crops. Rotary picker of cucurbits crops contains a frame with support wheels, a trailing hitch, a platform with gauge wheels, a fruit guide, left and right harvest rotors and a fruit loading transporter. Lower plane of rear part of platform is installed at an angle β=20° to the horizon and forms a sloping tray for fruits, wherein the bend of the platform is located at a distance l from the rotation axis of the harvesting rotor, equal to l=R_r-h_c, where R_r is harvesting rotor radius; h_c is the depth of the fruit-bearing cell.

EFFECT: at such performance conditions of harvesting rotten fruits proliferating cells release from cucurbits crops are improved, id est excluding their rolling back to the field.
