Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is useful for a riding-type field planting and seedling plant. 2. Description of the Related Art A seedling plant is mounted on a rear part of a riding type traveling body (tractor) so as to swing around a horizontal axis, and a rear part thereof is supported by a tail wheel. With both of them, the seedling planting apparatus is maintained at a certain height from the ground. Further, the pipe is fixed to the fuselage in the vertical direction, and the supporting leg with the tail wheel is slidably inserted into the pipe, and the pins are fixed to both. Then, a plurality of holes are provided vertically on the support leg, and the height of the tail wheel is adjusted by replacing a pin with one of these holes. The seedling transplanter uses a gauge wheel or a hydraulic cylinder to determine the height of the horizontal axis to set the planting depth of the seedlings, and to raise and lower the tail wheel to raise the seedlings. The tilt angle of the body of the planting device in the front-rear direction is adjusted and used. If the tail wheel comes to a hard ground or a soft ground during the work, the amount of sinking with respect to the ground surface changes, and the inclination angle of the aircraft changes. Then, the transplanted seedlings may be tilted forward or backward to deform balls such as cabbage and Chinese cabbage. In other words, if the soil is hard and soft, the inclination of the fuselage cannot be corrected by manually moving the tail wheel up and down, and adjustment is troublesome even in a partially hard and soft field. [0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention relates to a machine 18 of a seedling plant 2 having a seedling mounting table 21 and a seedling tool 30 for transplanting seedlings thereon. The front part is provided at the rear part of the traveling vehicle body 1 so as to swing around the horizontal axis 12, and the tail wheel 32 supporting the rear part of the seedling plant 2 by touching the left and right valleys B of the ridge A moves the tail wheel up and down. An angle sensor 36 is provided at the rear of the seedling plant 2 so as to move up and down by the device 34, and detects the inclination of the seedling plant 2 in the front-rear direction. Rutotomoni provided so as to keep the angle of inclination of the seedling planting apparatus 2 a wheel 32 up and down to within a predetermined range, the height sensor glide upper surface of the ridge a 3

The operation is carried out by placing group seedlings such as cabbage and lettuce on the seedling mounting table 21. Then, the seedling planting tool 30 transplants the seedlings on the seedling mounting table 21 one by one into the field. At this time, the seedling plant 2 is maintained in a predetermined posture with the front part of the body 18 supported by the horizontal axis 12 at a fixed height and the rear part supported by the tail wheel 32 from the ground. When the seedling plant comes to a place where the ground is soft, the tail wheel 32 sinks and the seedling plant 2 tilts backward and downward. And when the slope exceeds the set limit,
The tail wheel vertical movement device 34 is automatically operated by the information from the angle sensor 36, the tail wheel 32 is pushed down, the rear part of the seedling plant 2 rises, and the inclination of the seedling plant 2 in the front-back direction is determined. Returns to within range. When the seedling plant operating in this state comes to a hard place on the ground, the sinking amount of the tail wheel 32 decreases, and the seedling plant 2 tilts rearward and upward. Then, contrary to the above, the tail wheel 32 automatically rises, and its inclination returns to the predetermined range. As described above, according to the present invention, the seedling plant 2
The inclination in the front-rear direction is automatically kept within a certain range, so that the transplanting posture of the vegetable seedling is stabilized and the ball grows well. Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG.
