ABSTRACT:
The twister fruit picker which comprises a pole mounted tool; with the tool having scissor like arms whose upper ends are opposing circular configured planes, which planes, when closed nearer to each other, will hold a fruit; and the opposing planes nearness to each other, being controlled by two opposing forces, originating from springs or elastic device, with one force stronger than the other one, and with device for controlling the strongest force. Such ability to control the configuration and size of the picker, when moving throughout a tree, makes it quick and easy to get on the fruit; and because fruit damage is minimal when fruit is twisted off, this invention is designed to allow twisting.
