Description

  The present invention relates to a rice transplanter.

  Conventionally, as a form of rice transplanter, a seedling platform on which a seedling mat is placed is laterally fed by a fixed width in the left-right direction by a lateral feed mechanism, while the seedling is cut from the seedling mat by planting claws to the field. Some plants can be planted, and part of the seedling platform can be folded to shorten the left-right width (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  That is, in the rice transplanter, the eight-row seedling stage is formed of the left-side six-row fixed-side seedling-table formation body and the right-side two-row movable-side seedling-table formation body. The posture can be freely changed between the use posture in which the platform formation body is continuously arranged at the right side position of the fixed-side seedling platform formation body and the folding posture that is arranged in a superposition state immediately above the fixed-side seedling platform formation body. It is said.

  In the folded position, the fixed-side seedling platform forming body is biased to the left side with respect to the left and right virtual center line of the aircraft, so the fixed-side seedling platform forming body is moved to the right side by the lateral feed mechanism. Thus, the left and right virtual center lines of the fixed-side seedling platform forming body are aligned with the left and right virtual center lines of the airframe.

In this way, in such a rice transplanter, the seedling platform is in a folded posture, and the left and right virtual center lines are positioned in the vicinity of the left and right virtual center lines of the aircraft, thereby transporting the aircraft on the carrier bed of the transport vehicle. When doing so, the seedling stand is not disturbed.
JP 2000-295910 A

  However, in the specification where the interval between the center lines of the partition ribs that divides the seedling stage into each seedling mat is 33 cm (hereinafter referred to as “33 specifications”), it is not necessary to fold a part of the seedling stage. There is a problem that it cannot be placed on the carrier bed.

  That is, normally, the specification is such that the interval between the center lines of the partition ribs that divide the seedling platform into each row for one seedling mat is 30 cm (hereinafter referred to as “standard specification”). The right and left width of the seedling mounting stage is 30 cm × 8 = 240 cm, but the right and left width of the 33 specification Hachijo seedling mounting stage is 33 cm × 8 = 264 cm, and the difference between them is 24 cm.

  Even in the folded position, the former is 30 cm × 6 = 180 cm, while the latter is 33 cm × 6 = 198 cm, and the difference between the two is 18 cm.

  Therefore, in the 33 specification, in the folded position, the fixed-side seedling platform forming body is largely biased to the left side, and is moved to the right side by the lateral feed mechanism, so Even if the center line is located near the left and right virtual center line of the aircraft, the lateral feed width by the lateral feed mechanism is usually half that of the seedling mat. Cannot be moved to.

  As a result, in the 33 specification, the fixed-side seedling platform forming body in the folded position is biased to the left side with respect to the left and right virtual center line of the aircraft. In addition, there is a problem that the left end portion of the fixed side seedling bed forming body interferes with the side wall of the loading platform.

  Therefore, in the present invention, the seedling mounting table on which the seedling mat is placed can be planted in the field by cutting the seedling from the seedling mat with the planting claws while laterally feeding the seedling platform by the lateral feeding mechanism by a certain width. At the same time, in the rice transplanter that can fold a part of the seedling platform and shorten the lateral width, the connection between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism is released, and the lateral feed mechanism maximizes the lateral movement. The present invention provides a rice transplanter characterized in that the fed seedling platform can be further laterally moved in the same direction.

  The present invention is also characterized by the following configuration.

  (1) The lateral feed mechanism is provided with a lateral feed screw shaft whose axis is directed in the left-right direction, and the slider is engaged with a lateral feed groove formed on the outer peripheral surface of the transverse feed screw shaft so that the slider is laterally moved. It is possible to move laterally in conjunction with the rotation of the feed screw shaft, and the seedling stage is linked to the slider via an interlocking connecting piece, and the interlocking connecting piece is detachably attached to the seedling stage. The connection between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism can be released by removing the interlocking connecting piece.

  (2) The seedling stage that has been disconnected from the lateral feed mechanism is restricted from lateral movement by the lateral movement restricting piece.

  (1) In the present invention described in claim 1, the seedling mounting table on which the seedling mat is mounted is cut by the planting claws from the seedling mat while the lateral feeding mechanism is laterally fed by a certain width in the lateral direction. In the rice transplanter that can be planted in the field and partly folds the seedling platform and shortens the lateral width, the connection between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism is released, The seedling platform that has been laterally fed to the maximum by the mechanism can be further laterally moved in the same direction.

  In this way, the lateral feed mechanism feeds the seedling platform to the maximum extent, and then, in a state where a part of the seedling platform is folded and the left and right widths are shortened, If the left / right virtual center line is not located near the left / right virtual center line of the aircraft and is biased to either the left or right side, the connection between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism is released, The left and right virtual centerline of the shortened seedling platform is positioned in the vicinity of the left and right virtual centerline of the aircraft by further laterally moving the seedling platform that is laterally fed by the feed mechanism to the maximum in the same direction. Can do.

  Therefore, even in the 33 specification with a wide seedling platform, the side end of the seedling platform can be arranged without being biased to the left side or the right side, and the aircraft can be easily and securely mounted on the carrier platform of the transport vehicle. Can be loaded.

  (2) In the present invention described in claim 2, the transverse feed mechanism is provided with a transverse feed screw shaft having an axis line in the left-right direction, and the slider is engaged with the transverse feed groove formed on the outer peripheral surface of the transverse feed screw shaft. Combined, the slider can be moved laterally in conjunction with the rotation of the lateral feed screw shaft, and the seedling stage is interlocked and connected to the slider via the interlocking connecting piece. It is detachably attached to the seedling stage and the connection between the seedling stage and the transverse feed mechanism can be released by removing the interlocking connecting piece.

  In this way, since the connection between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism can be released by removing the interlocking connecting piece, the side end portion of the seedling platform is placed on the left side even in the 33 specifications where the seedling platform is wide. Can be arranged without being biased to the right or to the right.

  In addition, it is possible to easily perform the connection release work between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism by removing the interlocking connection piece and the connection work between the seedling platform and the lateral feed mechanism by attaching the interlocking connection piece.

  (3) In the present invention described in claim 3, the seedling stage that has been disconnected from the lateral feed mechanism is restricted from lateral movement by the lateral movement restricting piece.

  In this way, by restricting the seedling stage with the lateral movement restricting piece, it is possible to prevent the seedling stage from rattling and generating noise or the like when the machine is carried on the loading platform of the transport vehicle. it can.

  In such a disconnected state, the fixed-side body forming piece 135 can be moved to the right.

  After the compact setting, the lateral movement restricting pieces 140, 140 are replaced with the pair of left and right replacement bolt holes 142, 142 by the mounting bolts 141, 141, and the lateral movement of the fixed-side body forming piece 135 is restricted by the both lateral movement restricting pieces 140, 140. Thus, when the rice transplanter A is carried on the loading platform of the rice transplanter transporter, it is possible to prevent the seedling carrier main body 62 from rattling and generating noise or the like.

  Also, the left movable side seedling extractor forming piece 70b is removed from the left end of the fixed side seedling extractor forming piece 70a, and further, the left and right outermost straight strip auxiliary floats 57,57 and the side bumpers 58,58 are transmitted. Remove from case 50,50.

  In this way, by setting the planting part 3 in a compact setting state in which the planting part 3 is disposed within the predetermined left and right width Ws, the components of the rice transplanter A can be smoothly loaded without interfering with the side wall of the rice transplanter transporter. be able to.

  Note that the above-described compact setting of the planting part 3 is particularly effective for the seedling mount 61 of 33 specifications.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the fertilizer 4 places a fertilizer hopper 143 on the rear part of the machine frame 5, and blows the fertilizer accommodated in the fertilizer hopper 143 by the blower 144. 56, 56, 57, and 57 are formed in a field by a side groove grooving device (not shown) and discharged into the groove.
