摘要 |
The invention relates to a machine for harvesting berries, and particularly, grapes, comprising a straddling frame (1) on which are mounted two sets of shaking elements (4a, 4b), each on one side of the median plane of the machine, said shaking elements consisting of rods curved in an approximately horizontal plane and exhibiting their convexity in the direction of said median plane. Each end of each rod is jointed to a support mounted to pivot around an approximately vertical pin, drive members (12) being provided to move, in phase, the supports of rods located on the same side of the median plane so as to move the rods parallel to themselves, and to move, in phase opposition, the supports of the rods located on one of the sides of the median plane relative to the supports of the rods located on the other side of the median plane so that, when one of the sets of rods approaches the median plane, the other set of rods moves away from it.
