ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for picking up objects randomly distributed on a surface, for example nuts on the ground, in which a wheel made up of a plurality of coaxially mounted, flexible cylindrical discs separated by flexible spacers is rotated over the ground so that nuts become wedged in the spaces between adjacent discs and rotate with the wheel. Ejector rods fixed to a handle eject the wedged nuts into a basket pivotably mounted on the handle.
