  • Publication number: 20080209800
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for the receiving/delivering of pot plants. For the receiving of pot plants from a floor, it is proposed to utilize a fork-like construction wherein each fork is provided with conveying elements. These conveying elements consist of one or two worms which protrude slightly beyond the free end of carriers carrying the conveying elements and are configured so as to taper, for example conically, toward the end. This allows rows of pot plants to be received in a secure manner. Attaching preferably two worms, one above the other, positions the pot plants in a particularly stable manner, as a result of which crops having a high centre of gravity can easily be received without the risk of falling over. The apparatus allows the crops to be positioned next to one another or moved closer together during delivery.
