Abstract: A method and a harvesting machine for harvesting fruit from the ground, according to which fruit is harvested by means of a harvesting device, which is configured to form a harvested material flow consisting of fruit and foreign bodies, to move the harvested material along a cleaning path and to clean the harvested material by removing the foreign bodies from the fruit; the cleaning being carried out by sending an airflow coming from above the moving path towards the harvested material.

Abstract: A forest machine has a carriage driven by a thermal engine and a towing/holding winch carried by the carriage and having a towing drum of the cable and a rotation electric motor of the towing drum commanded and controlled by an electric drive and control circuit having an accumulator pack, a detection block for detecting the electric energy absorbed by the electric motor during one or more towing steps of the load hooked to the cable and the electric energy returned in one or more holding steps of the same load, a comparator block for calculating the difference between the absorbed electric energy and the returned electric energy and an electric energy generator driven directly or indirectly by the thermal engine for sending the calculated electric energy difference to the accumulator pack; the electric drive and control circuit further having a control assembly of the tension of the cable.

Abstract: A harvesting machine for harvesting fruit from the ground has a cart having a frame, which is movable in a moving direction and carries, connected to it in an integral manner, a fruit harvesting device having a harvesting member and wheels rolling on the ground and designed for the height positioning the harvesting member; the cart having a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels; at least the front wheels being coupled to the frame by means of respective height-adjustable suspensions, each having a respective actuator; an electric-hydraulic command and control assembly being provided in order to adjust the height of the frame relative to the front wheels depending on the pressure of a chamber of at least one of the actuators and in order to rotate the frame around an instantaneous rotation axis, which is transverse to the moving direction, so as to adjust the load acting upon the positioning wheels and upon the front wheels.

Abstract: An agricultural machine for the selection of fruits from loose material collected from the ground comprises a frame and a rotating roller screen selection device mounted on the frame and configured to impart to the loose material a component of sussultatory movement and a component of translational movement.

Abstract: Self-propelled work vehicle for harvesting fruit, with a front axle, a rear axle, a steering column, an engine, a control pedal, a seat mounted in a driving position and a plurality of tools, with a control system for controlling the engine, the tools, the control pedal. The control system comprises an electronic joystick, which controls the progress of the self-propelled work vehicle for harvesting fruit so that acceleration and braking are proportional with respect to the angle is maintained when the electronic joystick is released.
