    Abstract: Apparatus for the separation of agricultural or vegetable product, with a fixed structure having two parallel horizontal side members, a plurality of cutting modules equipped with a common rotating shaft having a plurality of rotating blades in fixed position along its length, the shafts being parallel to each other and mounted above conveying elements suitable to carry the products placed thereon toward the rotating blades, a plurality of positioning ramps mounted in a position corresponding to a respective rotating blade and having a shape elongated in the direction of movement of the conveying elements and almost flattened and oriented vertically, the elongate upper edge of which is oriented downward toward the conveying elements with an inclination such that the height of the edges increases in the feeding direction of the conveying elements, so that the clusters of products placed on the conveying elements are carried toward the ramps. The respective upper edge determines the point of intersection of the respective blade with the stems of each cluster carried under the blade, so that the conveying elements include a table formed by a plurality of parallel grooves substantially orthogonal to the rotating shafts and reciprocally separated by respective raised portions. The table moves in a direction parallel to the grooves; and the ramps are arranged in positions corresponding to the respective grooves. The projection of each of the ramps with respect to one of the groove is aligned with the same groove.

    Abstract: Apparatus for filling containers with horticultural products, built and operating in such a manner as to utilize at least one horizontal transporting conveyor, a moving structure arranged at the output edge of said conveyor and provided with displacement and engagement means to incline said containers, through a partial rotation, from a first inclined position with respect to the horizontal plane, in which the mouth of the container remains contiguous with the output edge of the conveyor, and subsequent working positions in which the same container moves progressively through less inclined positions until it returns to the normal horizontal position. Said mobile structure includes a U-shaped oscillating frame whose open side is designed to position itself in front of said output edge of the transporting conveyor, and blocking means, typically shaped jaws, supported by said oscillating frame and suitable to selectively engage and disengage the outer perimeter of the container, so as to initially cause the container to rotate to a predetermined inclination, and subsequently return in reverse rotation to the normal position, in which the container is released and removed.
