Next, a description will be given of the support mechanism 7 that allows the scraping device 5 configured as described above to be interlocked with the lifting and lowering operation of the planting device 6 and adjusts the scraping work height of the scraping device 5 up and down.

  The support mechanism 7 includes a planting horizontal machine frame 65 (FIGS. 3 and 4) arranged in parallel along the width of the scraping device 5, and a planting machine erected from the planting machine frame 65. It has a frame 60 and a support rod 70 which will be described later provided with a metal portion 7a that pivotally supports both sides of the rotary shaft 50 at the lower portion. A horizontal shaft 72 is rotatably supported on the upper portion of the planting machine frame 60, and a support rod 70 is connected and supported by link arms 71 fixed to both ends of the horizontal shaft 72.

  The horizontal shaft 72, an operating lever 7L provided at an appropriate position of the horizontal shaft 72, and a lever guide 73 fixed to the planting machine frame 60 so as to position and guide the operating lever 7L are provided. Furthermore, it has a support part (guide) 75 that protrudes forward from the planting horizontal machine frame 65 and supports the middle part of the support rod 70 at the end part thereof so as to be slidable in the vertical direction while preventing lateral vibration. A support member 75a and a spring 76 that is locked to both sides of the horizontal shaft 72 and that has a lower end attached to the rotor cover 52 to bias the support device 5 upwardly. The support rod 70 is made of a pipe material made of a square pipe or a round pipe.

Then, the planting machine frame 60 is planted by being tilted forward while being bent in the shape of a letter in a side view as shown in FIG. In addition to being supported as possible, the planting horizontal machine frame 65 and the transmission case 51 are integrally provided in the lower part to form a rigid frame.
Further, the support portion 75 of the support member (support arm) 75a projecting from both sides of the planting horizontal machine frame 65 is along the axis connecting the horizontal shaft 72 and the rotary shaft 50 as shown in FIG. A lower support rod 70a having a metal portion 7a in the lower portion is slidably inserted into the support portion 75, and an upper portion of the lower support rod 70a and an upper support rod 70b are provided in the support portion 75. And the upper support rod 70b are connected to the tip of the link arm 71 with a pin. The support rod 70 is linearly formed by the lower support rod 70a and the upper support rod 70b.

Further, the scraping device 5 supported by the support rod 70 is urged and supported upward by a spring 76 provided between the horizontal shaft 72 and the rotor cover 52.
Therefore, the support mechanism 7 of the scraping device 5 configured as described above is formed in a triangular shape in a side view when the planting machine frame 60, the support portion 75, and the support rod 70 are assembled and connected to each other. It forms in the rigid body frame and can support the scraping apparatus 5 stably.

In addition, while reducing the weight as a simple structure with as small a frame structure as possible, it is installed compactly between the rear wheel 1b and the planting device 6 as shown in FIG. 2 (A). It becomes possible. Therefore, the planting device 6 can be installed close to the traveling machine body 1, and the machine body length can be shortened.
And the support part 75 which guides the middle part of the support rod 70 so that a slide is possible is diagonally installed so that it may incline back along the axis line which connects the horizontal axis | shaft 72 provided in the upper part of the planting machine frame 60, and the rotary axis | shaft 50. Therefore, in the chamfering work posture in which the chamfering device 5 is lowered, the chamfering device 5 can be moved as close as possible to the rear wheel 1b side. The retracted posture can be smoothly set to the rear side from 1b.

A substantially triangular space is formed in the lower part of the rear wheel 1b and in front of the float 6F of the planting device 6. The scraper device 5 is arranged in this space portion, and this is smoothly moved up and down linearly. be able to.
Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the operating lever 7L for adjusting the height of the scraping device 5 is formed by a guide groove 77 formed in a vertical groove shape in a lever guide 73 fixed to the planting machine frame 60. Thus, the positioning and fixing when rotating around the horizontal shaft 72 can be performed as desired.

  That is, the illustrated lever guide 73 has a plurality of adjustment grooves 77a that can be locked at a position below the guide groove 77 so as to adjust the cutting work height (the cutting height) of the cutting device 5 in a plurality of stages. It is formed in a shape. In addition, an engagement groove 77b is formed in a long groove shape to be positioned and locked at a traveling height at which the scraping device 5 is separated from the ground at the upper position and pulled up to a traveling posture on the road that is stored in the upper portion. In the retracted posture of the scraping device 5, only the planting work can be performed as needed without performing the shaving work.

  With this structure of the lever guide 73, when performing the simultaneous planting operation, if the operating lever 7L is locked to the lowermost adjusting groove 77a of the guide groove 77, the scraping device 5 descends to the lowest level. It is possible to carry out deep scraping in a state where is lowered. Further, when the operation lever 7L is locked in the upper adjustment groove 77a, shallow scraping with a high scraping height can be performed, and the scraping work adapted to the state of the field can be performed satisfactorily.

  Further, when the operating lever 7L is positioned in the engaging groove 77b, the scraping device 5 is pulled up by the elasticity of the spring 76 and is in a free state in which it is urged, so that the operating lever 7L is shown in FIG. As shown in Fig. 4, the upper end of the engagement groove 77b is contacted to restrict further movement (upward movement) of the substitution device 5 relative to the planting device 6 in the upward direction.

  Then, the operating lever 7L positioned in the engaging groove 77b is, for example, shown in FIG. 5 when the cutting device 5 is moved upward as the planting device 6 is moved up to the running posture. Even if the rotary shaft 50 of the scraping device 5 and the planting transmission shaft 12 come into contact with each other, the scraping device 5 retreats downward against the elastic force of the spring 76 due to this contact resistance. At this time, the operating lever 7L can be released by freely moving in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3B within the width of the engaging groove 77b, so that the rotary shaft 50 and the planting transmission shaft 12 cannot be connected with each other. It is possible to prevent the hit and favorably support the planting device 6 and the scraping device 5 in the raised posture (running posture) in a light contact state due to the elasticity of the spring 76.

  Therefore, since both can be arranged as close as possible while preventing mutual damage due to the contact between the rotary shaft 50 and the planting transmission shaft 12, an advantage such that a compact transplanter A can be manufactured, etc. There is. The transplanting machine A configured as described above descends the planting device 5 in the cultivated and flooded field, and slides the float 6F made of a sliding body on the surface of the ground, while using the scraping device 5 as a substitute. While being rotated by the transmission shaft 81 and not performing cutting, the planting depth of the planting device 5 is controlled up and down by the lifting mechanism 3 and the leveling is adjusted by the operating lever 7L, and then the leveling is performed. The seedlings can be planted well at a certain depth in a flattened field scene.

In such a planting simultaneous planting operation, when the operation lever 7L is switched into the engagement groove 77b of the lever guide 73, the machining device 5 is moved by the spring 76 via the support mechanism 7 configured as described above. Since the biasing is supported upward, the operating lever 7L can be lifted with a light force by using the springs 76, 76 to be in the retracted posture.
In addition, since the amount of lift of the cutting device 5 is larger than that of the conventional device, the planting work that does not perform the cutting operation or the road running operation that does not perform the simultaneous cutting planting operation, etc. should be performed satisfactorily. It is something that can be done.

Further, since the scraping device 5 is supported by being pulled upward by the spring 76, there is an advantage that the assembling and mounting work of the scraping device 5 with respect to the planting device 6 can be performed efficiently and easily.
Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the scraping device 5 is placed and disposed below the planting transmission shaft 12 of the planting device 6. The scraping device 5 is moved along with the ascent of the planting device 6. When the auxiliary transmission shaft 12 contacts, the scraper device 5 is provided so as to automatically descend and retract.

Therefore, when the operating lever 7L is operated to the engagement groove 77b to place the cutting device 5 in the retracted posture, the planting device 6 and the cutting device 5 can be brought as close as possible, so that the body is shortened. And can be greatly separated from the ground, and can be performed well on the road.
In addition, the engagement groove 77b for supporting the scraping device 5 in the raised storage position is formed wide so that when the scraping device 5 comes into contact with the planting transmission shaft 12 of the planting device 6, the descending / retreating operation is performed. The movement can be permitted by allowing the operating lever 7L to freely move (accommodate movement) in the engaging groove 77b, and also prevent problems such as breakage due to the contact between the two.
