ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a traveling device, which can be preferably mounted on a vehicle, provided for completely removing and reducing the size of trees, particularly fruit trees, which are growing in a row, including their roots. The device comprises a cutting tool for reducing the size of the trees fed thereto, an ejector, which is mounted on the cutting tool and provided for ejecting the trees cut in the cutting tool, and a feed device that, in a direction of travel, is located in front of the cutting tool and provided for feeding the trees to be cut into the cutting tool. The feed device comprises two driven, vertical draw-in rollers, which are located close to the ground and form a gap. When operating the device, these rollers seize trees that are pushed down in the direction of travel, squeeze them inside the gap and push them toward the cutting tool. The feed device also comprises at least one driven clearing roller placed in the ground whereby being situated transversal to the direction of travel. When the device is operated, this clearing roller seizes roots of the pressed-down trees located in the ground and pushes them upward so they can be fed to the cutting tool.
