Abstract
An article pickup system includes rotating collector assemblies with radially, outward extending pickup members. The pickup members are spaced to engage and retain articles as the collector assembly advances. Separator chains extend intermediate the pickup members and loosen articles from the pickup members. The chains direct the articles to a conveyor system that transports the articles to a container. The speed and spacing of the chains and the spacing length and resiliency of the pickup members may be varied and may be different between the front and rear assemblies so that efficiencies are improved. The collector assemblies also include left and right hingedly connected portions so that the contact with the ground and the articles on the ground is increased.
