ABSTRACT:
A wholestalk sugar cane loader apparatus for picking up and accumulating windrowed cane wholestalks from a cane field ground surface having heap rows and furrows includes a wheeled movable carriage adapted to travel along a path defined by the carriage longitudinal center axis, generally parallel to the longitudinally extending elongated heap rows. The carriage has wheels tracking in parallel furrows and an elevated platform surface positioned adjacent the carriage for movement therewith during gathering of windrowed wholestalk cane, for accumulating wholestalk cut cane from a resting position on the cane field ground surface into a heap. An elongated boom pivotally mounted at a rotary connection to the carriage extends away from the rotary connection along a radial line defining a boom longitudinal axis. A pair of oppossed jaws is attached to a distal end portion of the boom opposite the rotary connection, the jaws being movable with respect to each other along a jaw travel path that allows the jaws to freely access the platform, the jaw travel path and the boom longitudinal axis being fixed during operation to intersect each other defining an acute angle therebetween.
