Zusammenfassung:A mobile system for improving the picking and preliminary processing of apples, citrus, stone fruit and the like is disclosed and claimed. The system comprises a mobile chassis upon which can be mounted picking stations, pneumatic tube transport subsystems, receiving and conveying subsystems, object scanning subsystems, cull diverter subsystems, labeling subsystems, and subsystems for relatively gently placing the objects in a predetermined location in a receiving bin. The system can also include a subsystem for gently placing diverted objects in a receiving bin. Se describe y se reclama un sistema móvil para mejorar la cosecha de frutos y el procesamiento preliminar de manzanas, cítricos, frutos de hueso y similares. El sistema consiste en un chasis móvil en el cual se pueden instalar estaciones para cosechar frutos, subsistemas de transporte por tubo neumático, subsistemas receptores y transportadores, subsistemas para el barrido de objetos, subsistemas para desviar objetos de clase inferior, subsistemas de etiquetado y subsistemas para colocar de un modo relativamente suave los objetos en un lugar predeterminado en una tolva receptora. El sistema también puede tener un subsistema para colocar suavemente los objetos desviados en una tolva receptora.
