Abstract: A system for removing particles from an air stream includes a housing having an air stream inlet at a first end, and an air stream outlet at a second end. The housing defines a flow path between the air stream inlet and air stream outlet. An agricultural device generating an air stream containing particles is in fluid communication with the housing, the air stream from the agricultural device being directed into the air stream inlet of the housing. An aggregator is disposed between the air stream inlet and the air stream outlet. The aggregator facilitates the aggregation of particles within the air stream. The aggregated particles fall from the aggregator by force of gravity.

Abstract: A tree shaker for harvesting fruits, nuts, and other tree-borne products includes a mobile vehicle and a boom attached to the vehicle and offset at an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle. A boom pivot is provided along the length of the boom. The boom pivot is lockable such that when the boom pivot is unlocked the boom is free to pivot around the boom pivot, and when the boom pivot is locked the boom is fixed around the boom pivot.

Abstract: A system for removing particles from an air stream includes a housing having an air stream inlet at a first end thereof and an air steam exhaust at a second end thereof. The housing defines a flow path between the air stream inlet and the air stream exhaust. At least one liquid introduction jet disposed between the air stream inlet and the air stream exhaust injects liquid droplets into the air stream. A scrubber disposed between the at least one liquid introduction jets and the air stream exhaust for removes smaller particles from the air stream.
