Patent ID: 10172300

Abstract:
A double-stream stripping device, intended for the stripping of leaves from the vine, includes at least one stripping head (1) equipped with two counter-rotating drums (2) and (3), namely a first perforated (2a) drum (2) and a second drum (3) working in rotation with the first drum (2), a suction system (4) capable of creating negative air pressure in the first drum (2) and a system for driving drums (2) and (3) in rotation. The suction system includes two main suction openings and a turbine system and channeling elements (8, 9) making it possible to connect the latter to the main suction openings. Each open free end of the first drum is connected at one of the main suction openings in such a way as to create negative pressure, with a double air stream, constant and uniform, in the first drum, essentially over its entire length.
