Abstract: An assembly for handling fruit and vegetable products includes first containment units for fruit and vegetable products that can move along a first conveyance and/or control line. The assembly further includes second containment units for horticultural products that can move along a second conveyance and/or control line, which is laterally adjacent and proximate to the first line. The assembly includes a plurality of elements for transferring the horticultural products; such elements are distributed at least along a part of the first line and are selectively actuatable by an electronic management and control unit, for the transfer of each product from a first unit to a respective second unit in a portion chosen from a plurality of different portions of the first line, upon the occurrence of a predefined condition of mutual alignment between the horticultural product to be transferred, which is conveyed by the first unit, and a second unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for conveying horticultural products, which comprises means for cyclic movement along an advancement direction of a plurality of rotating assemblies; at least some pairs of assemblies, which are consecutive, define respective conveyance units for corresponding horticultural products, which can be rested on the pairs substantially above the interspace between the assemblies. Each assembly comprises at least four rotating and circular disks; in each unit the external disks of each assembly have a larger diameter than the internal disks of the same assembly and a first internal disk, which is larger, of each assembly has a diameter that is larger than the diameter of the other internal disk, which is smaller; moreover, the larger disks and the smaller disks are arranged so as to be mutually offset in the two assemblies of the same unit.

Abstract: A unit for transferring horticultural products between at least one tank, in which the horticultural products float on a fluid mass, and at least one collection container, including a head provided with a plurality of walls normally arranged vertically. The head is movable between at least one collection position, in which the walls are interposed between respective horticultural products, which float on the fluid mass at a respective predefined section of the tank, and at least one unloading position, in which the walls face and are proximate to the collection container. In an active configuration, the transverse elements protrude transversely from the space occupation of the walls to ensure mechanical interference with the fall of the horticultural products as a consequence of the subsequent lifting of the head and of its transfer toward said unloading position.
