This is not unlike a concept we toyed with for awhile.
Forgot to answer this one in my earlier post... We plan to push down over the ball using a smaller opening and relying on the ball compressing through the opening. If need be we could run it into an obstacle like a fork lift though. The rollers run on our bumpers so if we are pushing a ball with the bumper we just slap the lifter on the ground and we have the ball in posession.
