The thorn extractor apparatus has a frame, a roller, a screen that surrounds the roller and a screen roller, and a removably attachable collection bin for receiving the thorny seeds. The roller and screen work together to pick up and convey the thorny seeds to the removably attachable collection bin to be discarded.

A device for trimming stems and the leafy plant structure projecting from a flower of a plant, for example a harvested flower of a marijuana plant. The device includes a blade head for supporting a pair of sheet blades, each sheet blade having a contact surface, the contact surface of the first sheet blade configured for reciprocating motion against the contact surface of the second. The first sheet blade and the second sheet blade are formed having numerous trimming apertures such that as the first sheet blade reciprocates against the second sheet blade, the plurality of first sheet blade trimming apertures and the plurality of second sheet aperture alternately, and at last partially, align and close creating a shearing action between the edges defining each of the plurality of first sheet blade trimming apertures and an edge defining each of the plurality of second sheet blade trimming apertures.

A thorn extractor apparatus has a frame, a roller, a screen that surrounds the roller, and a collection bin for receiving the thorny seeds. The frame includes a first and second side member, frame couplers, and a plurality of horizontal beams. The roller and screen work together to pick up and convey the thorny seeds to the collection bin to be discarded. The thorn extractor apparatus may feature a plurality of rollers coupled to a plurality of screens. The thorn extractor apparatus may also feature a vacuum, a kickstand, added weights, and a hitch mechanism configured to be pulled by a vehicle. Two or more frames may be coupled together in sequence to multiply the number of rollers clearing the ground of thorny seeds. The thorn extractor apparatus, in some examples, may feature an automatic drive system or be couplable to a vehicle.

What is disclosed is an improved cutting tool to provide improved cutting of small diameter materials, such as stems of flowers and other plants. The device provides a cutting mechanism that is parallel to or in the same plane of a circumference of a ring that is worn on the user's finger. This provides for an increased ergonomic cutting tool. The cutting tool has a blade and an opposing portion that is configured to retain the material to be cut while the blade is pressed into the material or the material can be pushed onto the blade. The device is preferably constructed of a unitary molded plastic with an integrated blade formed in the material.

A machine for cutting the tips of the leaves off agave plants to prepare the plants for the subsequent removal of the core. The machine includes a chassis defining a platform having: a rear end having a structural frame supporting arms that project rearwards, wheel rims that rest on the ground being secured to said arms; a front end having a structural frame having arms extending frontwards, a tractor-coupled drawbar being secured to said arms; and an arm that connects to the power take-off and is secured in the upper part of the structural frame. The machine includes a supporting base which can slide under the action of hydraulic elements, and is mounted on a pair of parallel rails and is arranged transversely across the platform. Additionally, the machine includes a hydraulic system with control inputs, actuated by the operator.

A cactus processing system for removing spines from cactus stems features a free-standing edge cleaning member. The system features a free-standing conveyor member comprising a lower transport conveyor with a high open area mesh lower transport conveyor belt located on the lower transport conveyor. A lower cleaning conveyor is located entirely inside a lower transport conveyor open middle area. A lower brushing belt is located on the lower cleaning conveyor. The system features the free-standing conveyor member comprising an upper transport conveyor with a high open area mesh upper transport conveyor belt located on the upper transport conveyor. An upper cleaning conveyor is located entirely inside an upper transport conveyor open middle area. An upper brushing belt is located on the upper cleaning conveyor. The system features an open basin located on a ground surface underneath the conveyor member.
