ABSTRACT:
In order to enable the shaker members (11) of this harvesting machine to adapt to the thickness of the vegetation on fruit trees and bushes, each shaker member has both ends attached to a support (14) which reciprocates transversely relative to the longitudinal mid axis (12) of the machine, and is constituted by a rod (11) made of a highly flexible material suitable for being curved into an arcuate shape with the convex side of the arc being directed towards the longitudinal mid axis (12). At least one end of each flexible rod (11) is attached to its support (14) at a point (19) which is capable of moving a certain distance in a direction which is substantially parallel to said longitudinal mid axis.
