Abstract:
1. A device for removing debris from a lawn, in combination with a wheeled means defining a frame, comprising: a) collector means defining a parallel-beams type collector having a row of spaced-apart elongated thin rods for receiving said debris; an end portion of each said elongated thin rod is mounted to a supporting header beam; said collector is enclosed by a plurality of side walls to keep said debris in said collector; b) transport means defining a moving assembly which moves said collector to an elevated point which is higher above the ground; and c) storage means defining a container having an opening for receiving said debris; wherein said collector is moved essentially horizontally above the ground with said elongated thin rods pointing in a forward direction and penetrating through the grass; said debris sitting above the grass is picked up by said elongated thin rods as said elongated thin rods have already been moved under said debris; said elongated thin rods, together with said debris, are lifted along a guided path by said moving assembly; said debris is allowed to fall into said storage means at an elevated position of said guided path.
