Abstract: A conveyor assembly for raising and feeding debris such as fallen branches from an orchard floor to a processor such as a wood-chipper is provided. The conveyor assembly comprises a body including a floor having a leading end for location adjacent ground level and a trailing end for location above the leading end in use. A ground contact arrangement is located toward the leading end extends beneath the leading end to thereby raise the leading end above ground level. A powered leading feed roller is disposed adjacent the leading end of the floor to direct members from ground on to the floor. A powered, primary infeed roller is located rearward the leading infeed roller and is arranged to move toward and away from the floor to accommodate members between said roller and the floor and urge the members, such as fallen branches rearward for entry into an inlet of the wood-chipper.

Abstract: A fan assembly includes a centrifugal fan mounted at one end of an arm that is arranged to pivot with at least two degrees of rotational freedom. A rotary driver is coupled to the arm with a ball and socket joint so that the centrifugal fan oscillates in use. The fan assembly may be configured as an orchard sprayer to disburse pesticide into foliage and be mounted to, or towed by, an agricultural vehicle. In use the motion of the fan assists in opening up foliage for improved penetration of the pesticide therein.
