DEFINITION

Classification: 171/59

(under subclass 55) Apparatus wherein the opposed plant engagers comprise opposed diverging members which are fixedly mounted on an upwardly moving carrier; the diverging sides generally engage an intermediate portion of the sides of the plant with a wedging action to hold it during upward movement.

(1) Note. Devices in which converging members dig under a buried object and lift and guide said object out of the earth as the object rolls or slides up the inclined surface thereof are excluded since they do not grasp said object.
