Abstract

See full text

A device for picking fruit mounted on either the right hand or left hand of the user which includes an elongate central strip having a first end and an opposed second end with a longitudinal axis extending from the first to the second end and a latitudinal axis perpendicular to this longitudinal axis defining a first normal plane together with an end member attached to the first end of the elongate central strip and extending contiguously outward from the first normal plane of the central strip. The device also includes a cutting blade attached to the second end of the central strip extending angularly outward from the normal plane. The device is adapted to be inserted onto the finger or fingers of the user such that the cutting blade can be brought into contact with the stem of a fruit to be harvested by the grasping motion of the picker's hand.
