Abstract

A fruit harvesting tool (100) includes a container (102) having a circumferential wall (104) extending between a closed bottom end (106) and a top end (108) of the container (102). The circumferentialwall (104) and the top end (108) each defining at least a portion of an arcuate opening (110) extending along a perimeter (P) of the container (102) between the circumferential wall (104) and the topend (108). A fruit plucking attachment (114) is selectively engaged with the top end (108) of the container (102). The fruit plucking attachment (114) comprises a first comb (116) at a first side (118) and a second comb (120) at a second side (122). The fruit plucking attachment (114) is selectively rotatable between a first position and a second position to allow one of the first comb (116) andthe second comb (120) to be disposed into the arcuate opening (110).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hand-held fruit harvesting tool, and more particularly to a fruit picking attachment for the hand-held fruit harvesting tool. Background technique [0002] Hand-held harvesting tools are well known in the art for their use to facilitate the picking and recovery of produce, such as fruit from branches of shrubs or trees, by harvesters. In some cases, these harvesting implements are routinely designed for picking fruit of a specific size. Thus, a single conventional design harvesting implement may not be useful for picking and recovering different sized fruits, or in other words, such a single conventional design harvesting tool may not be useful for picking and recovering different types of fruit, such as berries and apples. [0003] DE 20 2009 014 926 U1 (hereinafter "'926 reference") discloses the use of a crown on the bag of a manual harvesting tool. The crown disclosed in the '926 reference stands upright about t...
