Summary:A tomato picking machine has a ground level copying device comprising a separate frame articulately fastened to an inclined conveyor which is mounted to the front of the main machine frame. A cutting device is situated above the ground level copying device and is fastened to the lower part of the inclined vibrating conveyor. A tomato separator is placed above the highest part of the inclined vibrating conveyor. Under the tomato separator is a waste product cleaning conveyor which connects with crosswise separating conveyors whose outer ends lie above lengthwise conveyors. A picker with articulately mounted spikes is mounted in front of a short receiving conveyor. The receiving conveyor is mounted in front of the vibrating conveyor and parallel to it. The inclined vibrating conveyor and cleaning conveyor are made of endless chains. The cleaning conveyor has smooth tube type rollers which are mounted by bearings onto pilots rigidly fastened to the endless chains. Tube type supports of the inclined vibrating conveyor are blocked from rotation. The speed of the short receiving conveyor is greater than the speed of the picker.
