ABSTRACT:
A mobile frame including a generally frusto-conical ground wheel journaled for rotation about a generally horizontal but inclined transverse axis with the lowermost slant height of the wheel disposed for surface-to-surface contact with the ground over which the frame is advanced. The minor and major diameter ends of the wheel are open and closed, respectively, and an upstanding rotary disk is journaled from the frame for rotation about an axis generally paralleling the axis of rotation of the wheel and with the disk disposed closely outwardly of and closing the rear lower quadrant portion of the open minor diameter on the end of the wheel. Stone deflecting structure is positioned outwardly of the minor diameter end of the wheel for deflecting windrowed stones thereinto and the interior of the wheel includes lift members for support of rocks therefrom and thereby operative to elevate rocks received into the open end of the wheel upon rotation of the latter. The frame includes an inclined longitudinally slotted slide upon which stones elevated to the upper periphery of the wheel are discharged and the slots in the slide taper toward the upper ends thereof. In addition, the outer periphery of the wheel defines a plurality of dirt and small pebble openings spaced thereabout.
