そして、前記引抜搬送装置24で搬送中の玉葱に接触し、表面に付着している泥土を除去する左右の泥落し体34a,34aを、該振動ソイラ34,34の取付部よりも機体後側に装着すると共に、前記引抜搬送通路Rの下方に引抜搬送装置24で搬送中の玉葱の下端部に伸びているヒゲ根を切断する尻部切断装置35を設けて、収穫部Cを構成する。   The left and right mud bodies 34a, 34a that contact the onion being transported by the pulling / conveying device 24 and remove the mud adhering to the surface of the left and right mud bodies 34a, 34a on the rear side of the body relative to the mounting portions of the vibrating soilers 34, 34 And a bottom cutting device 35 that cuts the beard root extending to the lower end of the onion being transported by the pulling / conveying device 24 is provided below the pulling / conveying path R to constitute the harvesting portion C.

上記構成により、一つの引抜搬送装置24で玉葱の1条掘りと2条掘りを選択的に行うことができるので、一台の玉葱収穫機で様々な作業条件に対応することが可能となる。
この1条掘りと2条掘りの調節は、条数切替レバー152,152の操作のみで行うことができるので、掘取条数の切替操作が容易であり、作業能率が向上する。
そして、左右の条数切替テンションローラ153,153を、左右の条数調節フレーム151,151を2条掘り位置に回動操作すると引抜搬送ベルト18,18に接触する構成としたことにより、引抜搬送装置24の搬送始端部の左右間隔を広くすることができるので、2条分の玉葱の茎葉部をこの左右間隔部で案内してから引き抜くことができ、茎葉部を掴み損なうことが防止されるため、抜き残された玉葱の回収作業が不要となる。
With the above configuration, one pulling and two digging of onions can be selectively performed with one drawing and conveying device 24, so that it is possible to cope with various working conditions with one onion harvester.
Since the adjustment of the single digging and the double digging can be performed only by operating the number switching levers 152 and 152, the switching operation of the number of digging items is easy, and the work efficiency is improved.
The left and right strip number switching tension rollers 153 and 153 are configured to come into contact with the pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 when the left and right strip number adjusting frames 151 and 151 are rotated to the two digging positions. Since the distance between the left and right ends of the conveying start end of the device 24 can be widened, the stems and leaves of the two buds can be pulled out after being guided by the left and right intervals, and it is prevented from failing to grasp the leaves and leaves. Therefore, it is not necessary to collect the remaining onion.

また、左右の条数調節フレーム151,151の後部に設けた延設フレーム151a,151aに後側テンションローラ155,155…を設け、左右の条数調節フレーム151,151を2条掘り位置に回動操作すると引抜搬送ベルト18,18に接触する構成としたことにより、左右の条数切替テンションローラ153,153の後方位置の挟持力を強くすることができるので、左右間隔部に案内されてきた茎葉部を確実に掴んで引き抜くことができ、玉葱の抜き残しがより確実に防止される。   Further, rear tension rollers 155, 155,... Are provided on the extension frames 151a, 151a provided at the rear portions of the left and right strip number adjusting frames 151, 151, and the left and right strip number adjusting frames 151, 151 are turned to the two digging positions. Since it is configured to come into contact with the pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 when the moving operation is performed, the clamping force at the rear position of the left and right strip number switching tension rollers 153 and 153 can be strengthened, and thus has been guided to the left and right spacing portions. The foliage portion can be securely grasped and pulled out, and the onion residue can be prevented more reliably.

一方、1条掘りの時には条数切替テンションローラ153,153と後側テンションローラ155,155…が引抜搬送ベルト18,18から離間することにより、引抜搬送装置24の搬送始端側の挟持力が強くなり過ぎることが防止されるので、強い挟持力が掛かり続けて茎葉部がすり潰されて玉葱の根部が搬送途中で落下することが防止され、玉葱を拾い集める作業が不要となって作業者の労力が軽減されると共に、落下の衝撃で玉葱が傷付くことが防止され、玉葱の商品価値が維持される。   On the other hand, when digging one strip, the number of tension switching rollers 153, 153 and the rear tension rollers 155, 155... Since it is prevented from becoming too much, strong pinching force continues to be applied, the foliage part is crushed and the root part of the onion is prevented from falling in the middle of transportation, and the work of collecting the onion is not necessary and The labor is reduced, and the onion is prevented from being damaged by the impact of falling, and the commercial value of the onion is maintained.

さらに、外側から引抜搬送ベルト18,18を押圧する左右の外側テンションローラ156,156を設けたことにより、引抜搬送ベルト18,18が弛み、外側に向かって広がることを防止することができるので、引抜搬送ベルト18,18がカバー(図示省略)等に接触して摩耗することや、接触の際に外れることが防止されるため、引抜搬送ベルト18,18の耐久性が向上する。   Furthermore, by providing the left and right outer tension rollers 156 and 156 that press the pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 from the outside, it is possible to prevent the drawing and conveying belts 18 and 18 from loosening and spreading outward. Since the pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 are prevented from coming into contact with a cover (not shown) and being worn away and coming off at the time of contact, the durability of the drawing and conveying belts 18 and 18 is improved.

そして、機体前側に分草杆27を備える横引起し装置26と、縦引起し装置25を設けることによって、圃場に倒伏した玉葱の茎葉を掻き上げながら収穫作業ができ、収穫する玉葱の視認性が向上するので引き抜き位置が合わせやすく、作物の抜き残しが減少するため作業能率が向上する。   Then, by providing the horizontal elevating device 26 having the weed pod 27 and the vertical elevating device 25 on the front side of the machine body, the harvesting operation can be performed while picking up the stems and leaves of the fallen onion in the field, and the visibility of the onion to be harvested Therefore, the extraction position is easy to adjust, and the work efficiency is improved because the crop residue is reduced.

また、テーパ形状の偏心カム28bを分岐伝動ケース28の出力軸28aに装着し、この偏心カム28bに振動ロッド32を設けて上下及び左右に振動可能に構成したことにより、玉葱の周囲の土を上下方向だけでなく左右方向の振動でより細かく解すことができるので、玉葱が引抜搬送装置24に確実に引き抜かれて抜き残しの発生が防止され、抜き残し玉葱を収穫する作業が不要となり、作業能率が向上すると共に作業者の労力が軽減される。   In addition, a taper-shaped eccentric cam 28b is mounted on the output shaft 28a of the branch transmission case 28, and a vibration rod 32 is provided on the eccentric cam 28b so as to vibrate up and down and left and right. Since it can be solved more finely by vibrations not only in the vertical direction but also in the horizontal direction, the onion is reliably pulled out by the pulling / conveying device 24 to prevent the occurrence of undrawn parts, and the work of harvesting the leftover onion becomes unnecessary. The efficiency is improved and the labor of the worker is reduced.

そして、振動ロッド32の端部にスフェリカルジョイント32aを設け、このスフェリカルジョイント32aにスライドブッシュ33aを介して左右他側の振動フレーム33を設けたことにより、振動ソイラ34,34の左右方向の振動幅を拡げることができるので、玉葱の周りの土の解れがいっそうよくなり、抜き残し玉葱が減少する。
これに加えて、左右の振動の際に生じる負荷が軽減されるため、振動ロッド32や振動フレーム33の耐久性が向上する。
Then, a spherical joint 32a is provided at the end of the vibration rod 32, and the left and right vibration frames 33 are provided on the spherical joint 32a via the slide bush 33a. Can be spread out, so that the soil around the onion can be further unraveled, and the amount of onion left over can be reduced.
In addition to this, since the load generated during left and right vibrations is reduced, the durability of the vibration rod 32 and the vibration frame 33 is improved.

さらに、伝動シャフト33cを介して左右一側の振動フレーム33を設け、左右一側の振動フレーム33にはスフェリカルジョイント32aやスライドブッシュ33aを設けないことにより、隣接する玉葱があり土が固い側(未掘り側)は上下のみの振動で土を解すので、土が固い側の振動ソイラ34にかかる抵抗が小さくなり、振動ソイラ34や振動フレーム33の耐久性が向上する。なお、上下及び左右方向に振動する左右他側の振動ソイラ34は、既に玉葱が掘り起こされており土が柔らかい側(既掘り側)の土を解すので、比較的負荷が小さく、耐久性に問題が生じることはない。   Furthermore, the left and right vibration frame 33 is provided via the transmission shaft 33c, and the left and right vibration frame 33 is not provided with the spherical joint 32a or the slide bush 33a. Since the soil is unraveled only by the vibrations of the upper and lower sides), the resistance applied to the vibration sour 34 on the hard soil side is reduced, and the durability of the vibration sour 34 and the vibration frame 33 is improved. In addition, the vibration soliters 34 on the left and right sides that vibrate in the vertical and horizontal directions have already been dug up and the soil on the soft side (excavated side) is unraveled, so the load is relatively small and there is a problem with durability. Will not occur.

そして、左右の泥落し体34a,34aを設けたことにより、搬送中の玉葱に付着した泥土を除去することができるので、機体の掃除にかかる時間が短縮されてメンテナンス性が向上すると共に、作業者や選別作業者が玉葱の形状や傷等の異常の有無を目視することができるので、玉葱の選別精度が向上する。   Since the left and right mud dropping bodies 34a and 34a are provided, the mud adhering to the onion being transported can be removed, so that the time required for cleaning the machine body is shortened and the maintainability is improved. Since the operator and the sorting operator can visually check the onion for abnormalities such as the shape and scratches, the onion sorting accuracy is improved.

さらに、ハンドル29を回すと上下伸縮する伸縮ロッド30の下端部にゲージ輪31を設けたことによって、ゲージ輪31を圃場面に接地させるとそれ以上引抜搬送装置24が下降しなくなるので、操縦者の操縦ミスや予期せぬ地面の凹凸によって引抜搬送装置24の下端部が圃場面に接触して破損することが防止される。   Further, by providing the gauge ring 31 at the lower end of the telescopic rod 30 that expands and contracts vertically when the handle 29 is turned, if the gauge ring 31 is brought into contact with the farm scene, the pulling and conveying device 24 will not be lowered any further. It is possible to prevent the lower end portion of the pulling / conveying device 24 from coming into contact with the field scene and being damaged due to an erroneous operation or unexpected ground irregularities.

そして、メインフレーム1と左右横軸21を回動支点として上下方向に回動自在な作業部フレーム20とを昇降シリンダ23で連結し、昇降シリンダ23を操縦部Bの昇降操作レバー14を操作することによって伸縮させる構成としたことによって、昇降操作レバー14の操作により収穫部C全体の上下高さを調節することができるので、収穫部Cの引抜搬送始端部の位置を上下方向に調節しするとともに圃場に植生する玉葱の適切な引き抜き高さに合わせて引抜搬送始端部の位置調節を行え、玉葱の抜き残しが防止されるので作業能率が向上する。
また、旋回時に収穫部Cを上昇させておくと、収穫部Cの下端部が圃場に接触しにくくなるため、旋回動作がスムーズに行われて作業能率が向上する。
Then, the main frame 1 and the working unit frame 20 that is rotatable in the vertical direction with the horizontal axis 21 as a rotation fulcrum are connected by the elevating cylinder 23, and the elevating cylinder 23 is operated by the elevating operation lever 14 of the control unit B. With this configuration, the vertical height of the entire harvesting section C can be adjusted by operating the lifting operation lever 14, so that the position of the pulling and conveying start end of the harvesting section C is adjusted in the vertical direction. At the same time, the position of the pulling conveyance start end can be adjusted in accordance with the appropriate pulling height of the onion vegetated on the field, and the onion of the onion is prevented, so that the work efficiency is improved.
Further, if the harvesting section C is raised during turning, the lower end of the harvesting section C is less likely to come into contact with the field, so that the turning operation is performed smoothly and the work efficiency is improved.

次に、茎葉切断部Dについて説明する。
図1及び図6から図10で示すとおり、前記伝動ケース22に駆動力を伝動する左右の伝動軸36,36を取り付け、該左右の伝動軸36,36の上部に左右伝動ケース37,37を取り付けると共に、該左右の伝動ケース37,37内に複数のギアを噛み合わせて構成する左右の第1ギアユニット38,38を機体前側に向かって取り付ける。また、前記伝動ケース22内部の左右の伝動軸36,36に左右の第2ギアユニット39,39を機体後側に向かって取り付け、該左右の第2ギアユニット39,39の後端部に左右の第1出力軸40,40を機体上方に向けて軸着する。

The first output shafts 40 and 40 are attached to the upper side of the machine body.

そして、前記の左右第1ギアユニット38,38の前端部に左右の第2出力軸41,41を機体下方に向けて軸着し、該左右の第2出力軸41,41に左右の位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42を軸着する。さらに、前記左右伝動ケース37,37の前下部に側面視L字型の左右の位置揃えフレーム43,43を取り付け、該位置揃えフレーム43,43に機体左右方向の孔部44,44を形成し、該孔部44,44に左右の位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を軸着した左右回転軸46,46を取り付ける。また、該位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45と位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42との前後間で且つ位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42よりも機体内側位置に左右の位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47を回転自在に取り付ける。さらに、該位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47と位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42と位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45とに左右の位置揃えチェーン48,48を無端状に巻回する。該左右の位置揃えチェーン48,48には、位置揃えチェーン48,48の上下及び搬送経路側を覆う、複数のチェーンカバー51,51…を、位置揃えチェーン48,48の全域に亘って取り付けることにより、茎葉部が位置揃えチェーン48,48に接触して千切られ、引抜搬送装置24の搬送途中で玉葱が下方に落下することを防止できる。
なお、前記位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42は、位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45及び位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47よりも小径のものを用いてもよい。
The left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 are attached to the front ends of the left and right first gear units 38 and 38 toward the lower side of the fuselage, and the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 are aligned to the left and right. Drive sprockets 42 and 42 are attached to the shaft. Further, left and right alignment frames 43 and 43 having an L-shape in side view are attached to the front and lower portions of the left and right transmission cases 37 and 37, and holes 44 and 44 in the lateral direction of the machine body are formed in the alignment frames 43 and 43. The left and right rotation shafts 46 and 46 are attached to the holes 44 and 44, with the left and right alignment driven sprockets 45 and 45 being pivotally attached thereto. Further, the left and right alignment tension sprockets 47, 47 are rotatable between the front and rear of the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 and the alignment drive sprockets 42, 42, and at the inner side of the body relative to the alignment drive sprockets 42, 42. Install. Further, left and right alignment chains 48, 48 are wound endlessly around the alignment tension sprockets 47, 47, the alignment drive sprockets 42, 42, and the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45. A plurality of chain covers 51, 51... Are attached to the left and right alignment chains 48, 48 over the entire area of the alignment chains 48, 48 so as to cover the upper and lower sides of the alignment chains 48, 48 and the conveyance path side. Thus, the stems and leaves can be cut into contact with the alignment chains 48, 48, and the onion can be prevented from falling downward during the conveyance of the drawing / conveying device 24.
The alignment drive sprockets 42, 42 may have a smaller diameter than the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 and the alignment tension sprockets 47, 47.

そして、前記伝動ケース37,37に左右の受け板49,49を前後方向に位置調節可能に取り付け、該受け板49,49と位置揃えフレーム43,43との間に、前記位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を付勢して位置揃えチェーン48,48に生じる弛みを吸収させる左右の付勢バネ50,50を取り付ける。該付勢バネ50,50は、受け板49,49を前後に移動させることにより、位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47にかかる付勢力を変更することができ、玉葱の種類や生育状態、茎葉部の平均的な太さに応じて変更することで、様々な作業条件に対応することができる。   Then, left and right receiving plates 49, 49 are attached to the transmission cases 37, 37 so that their positions can be adjusted in the front-rear direction, and the alignment driven sprocket 45 is interposed between the receiving plates 49, 49 and the alignment frames 43, 43. , 45 are attached to the right and left biasing springs 50, 50 for absorbing slack generated in the alignment chains 48, 48. The urging springs 50 and 50 can change the urging force applied to the alignment tension sprockets 47 and 47 by moving the receiving plates 49 and 49 back and forth. By changing according to the average thickness, it is possible to cope with various work conditions.

また、前記左右の位置揃えフレーム43,43に機体左右方向の孔部44,44を形成、該孔部44,44に位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45の回転軸46,46を貫通させて設けたことにより、位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を左右方向に移動させて位置調節することができるので、非作業時及び茎葉部が通過中でない、あるいは径の小さい茎葉部が通過する際は、位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47は付勢バネ50,50に押圧されて前側で且つ機体内側方向に向かって押圧され、大径の茎葉部が通過する際には位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47は機体外側方向に向かって押圧される構成となり、大径の茎葉部が噛み込まれることを防止でき、噛み込まれた茎葉部を取り除く必要が無く作業能率が向上する。   The left and right alignment frames 43, 43 are formed with holes 44, 44 in the left-right direction of the fuselage, and the rotation shafts 46, 46 of the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 are provided through the holes 44, 44. As a result, it is possible to adjust the position by moving the aligned sprockets 45, 45 in the left-right direction. Therefore, when not working and when the foliage is not passing or when the foliage with a small diameter passes, the alignment is performed. The tension sprockets 47, 47 are pressed by the urging springs 50, 50 and are pressed forward and toward the inner side of the machine body, and when the large diameter foliage passes, the alignment tension sprockets 47, 47 are moved toward the outer side of the machine body. It can be prevented from being bitten by a large diameter foliage part, and it is not necessary to remove the bitten foliage part, so that the work efficiency is improved.

加えて、位置揃え装置54の搬送始端側から搬送終端側までの左右間隔が、大径の茎葉部が通過して負荷がかかったときのみ略直線状となるので、それ以外の場合には位置揃え装置の左右間隔を搬送始端側から搬送終端側に向かって広がる構成となり、位置揃え装置54の左右間隔を通過する玉葱が左右方向にふらつくことを防止でき、玉葱の茎葉部の切断位置揃えが適正に行なわれる。   In addition, the left-right distance from the conveyance start end side to the conveyance end side of the alignment device 54 is substantially linear only when a large-diameter foliage is passed through and a load is applied. The left and right intervals of the aligning device are widened from the conveyance start end side toward the conveyance end side, and the onion passing through the left and right interval of the alignment device 54 can be prevented from wobbling in the left and right direction, and the cutting position alignment of the onion stems and leaves is aligned. Done properly.

さらに、大径の茎葉部が位置揃え装置54の左右間を通過できず、玉葱の茎葉部の切断位置が上がり過ぎ、根部に茎葉部が残ることを防止でき、後処理でこの茎葉部を取り除く作業が不要となり、作業能率が向上すると共に、玉葱が持ち上げられ過ぎ、根部を後述する茎葉切断装置61に切断されてしまうことを防止できるので、玉葱が傷付くことが無く、商品価値が向上する。   Furthermore, the large diameter foliage part cannot pass between the right and left of the alignment device 54, the cutting position of the onion foliage part can be prevented from rising too much, and the foliage part can be prevented from remaining in the root part, and this foliage part is removed by post-processing. Work is not required, the work efficiency is improved, and the onion is prevented from being lifted too much and the root portion is prevented from being cut by the foliage cutting device 61 described later, so that the onion is not damaged and the commercial value is improved. .

そして、前記位置揃えチェーン48,48の巻回域内で且つ位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45と位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47との間に、位置揃えチェーン48,48を巻回域内から茎葉部接触面に向かって押圧する左右のテンションプレート53,53を機体左右方向に位置調節自在に取り付けることにより、位置揃え装置54が引抜搬送装置24の搬送方向後側の下方位置に構成される。
該テンションプレート53,53は、前記伝動ケース37,37に長穴を形成して取付軸53a,53aをボルト等着脱可能な部材で位置調節に取り付け、該取付軸53a,53aの端部に板体53b,53bを溶着して構成する。
Then, the alignment chains 48, 48 are placed in the winding area of the alignment chains 48, 48 and between the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 and the alignment tension sprockets 47, 47 from the winding area to the foliage contact surface. The left and right tension plates 53, 53 that are pressed toward the left and right are attached so that the position of the left and right tension plates can be adjusted in the left-right direction of the machine body.
The tension plates 53 and 53 are formed with elongated holes in the transmission cases 37 and 37, and the mounting shafts 53a and 53a are attached to the position adjustment by detachable members such as bolts, and a plate is attached to the ends of the mounting shafts 53a and 53a. The bodies 53b and 53b are welded.

なお、テンションプレート53,53は、位置揃え装置54に略平行位置に設けてもよいが、機体外側の位置揃え装置53の前側にテンションプレート52を設ける場合、機体内側の位置揃え装置53のテンションプレート52は位置揃え装置53のテンションプレート52よりも機体後側に設けると、大径の茎葉部が位置揃え装置54の左右間を通過する際、テンションプレート52またはテンションプレート52の無い側に位置揃えチェーン48及び位置揃えガイド体52が移動するので、玉葱の茎葉部の径が大きくても位置揃え装置54に噛み込まれることを防止でき、機体を停止させて噛み込まれた茎葉部を取り除く必要がなく、作業能率が向上する。   The tension plates 53 and 53 may be provided at a position substantially parallel to the alignment device 54. However, when the tension plate 52 is provided on the front side of the alignment device 53 on the outside of the machine body, the tension of the alignment device 53 on the inside of the machine body. If the plate 52 is provided on the rear side of the machine body relative to the tension plate 52 of the alignment device 53, the large diameter foliage is positioned on the side where the tension plate 52 or the tension plate 52 is not present when passing between the left and right of the alignment device 54. Since the alignment chain 48 and the alignment guide body 52 move, it can be prevented from being bitten by the alignment device 54 even if the diameter of the onion foliage is large, and the jammed foliage is removed by stopping the machine. There is no need to improve work efficiency.

加えて、テンションプレート53,53の張力は、前記付勢バネ50,50の張力よりも弱く設定すると、大径の茎葉部が通過して負荷がかかると位置揃えチェーン48,48が適正な位置まで撓んで退避することができるので、位置揃え装置54に噛み込まれることを防止でき、機体を停止させて噛み込まれた茎葉部を取り除く必要がなく、作業能率が向上する。   In addition, if the tension of the tension plates 53 and 53 is set to be weaker than the tension of the urging springs 50 and 50, the alignment chains 48 and 48 will be in an appropriate position when the large-diameter foliage passes and a load is applied. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the position alignment device 54 from being bitten, and it is not necessary to stop the machine body and remove the bitten foliage, thereby improving work efficiency.

そして、前記位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42の近傍で且つ位置揃えガイド体52,52の外側位置で伝動ケース37,37に長穴を形成し、この長穴に位置揃えガイド体52,52の表面に付着した茎葉部の切れ端や泥等を落とす左右のスクレーパ55,55を位置揃えガイド体52,52の軌跡に沿って位置調節時際に取り付ける。
前記スクレーパ55,55は、後下り傾斜姿勢で配置することにより、茎葉部の切れ端や泥を下方に落下させやすくなる。
Then, elongated holes are formed in the transmission cases 37, 37 in the vicinity of the alignment drive sprockets 42, 42 and outside the alignment guide bodies 52, 52, and the surfaces of the alignment guide bodies 52, 52 are formed in the elongated holes. The left and right scrapers 55 and 55 for removing pieces and mud of the foliage adhering to the head are attached along the locus of the alignment guide bodies 52 and 52 at the time of position adjustment.
By arranging the scrapers 55 and 55 in a rearward downward inclined posture, it becomes easy to drop the cut ends of the foliage and mud downward.

そして、図9、図10で示す通り、前記左右の第2出力軸41,41を下方に延出させ、該左右の第2出力軸41,41に左右の補助入力軸201,201を、左右のカップリング202,202を介して各々取り付ける。該左右の補助入力軸201,201は、スプライン構造等により、前記左右の第2出力軸41,41の回転と異なる回転をしない構成とする。また、該左右のカップリング202,202は、ボールとスプリング(図示省略)を内装し、左右のカップリング202,202を回転させることによって左右の補助入力軸201,201の位置を上下方向に調節可能に構成する。前記左右の補助入力軸201,201の下端部には、左右の補助駆動スプロケット203,203を各々装着する。   9 and 10, the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 are extended downward, and the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 are provided with left and right auxiliary input shafts 201 and 201, respectively. Are attached via the couplings 202 and 202. The left and right auxiliary input shafts 201 and 201 do not rotate differently from the rotation of the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 due to a spline structure or the like.

The left and right guide rails 212 and 212 are set to have the same rearward and upward inclination posture as that of the pulling and conveying device 24, and the inclination angle is also set to be the same.

また、前記左右の補助従動スプロケット210,210と左右の補助駆動スプロケット203,203に亘って、左右の補助位置揃えチェーン211,211を各々巻回することにより、玉葱の茎葉部の切断位置を揃える補助位置揃え装置213が構成される。該左右の補助位置揃えチェーン211,211には、上記位置揃え装置54を構成する左右の位置揃えチェーン48,48と同じく、複数のチェーンカバー51,51…を補助位置揃えチェーン211,211の全域に亘って取り付けることにより、茎葉部が補助位置揃えチェーン211,211に接触して千切られ、引抜搬送装置24の搬送途中で玉葱が下方に落下することを防止できる。   In addition, the left and right auxiliary driven sprockets 210 and 210 and the left and right auxiliary drive sprockets 203 and 203 are wound around the left and right auxiliary alignment chains 211 and 211, respectively, so that the cutting positions of the onion stems and leaves are aligned. An auxiliary alignment device 213 is configured. The left and right auxiliary alignment chains 211 and 211 have a plurality of chain covers 51, 51... As in the left and right alignment chains 48 and 48 constituting the alignment device 54. As a result, it is possible to prevent the onion from falling downward during the conveyance of the pulling and conveying device 24.

なお、上記構成では、補助位置揃え装置213の上下位置を変更すると前端部側が前後移動し、後端部の位置は変わらない構成としているが、例えば左右の第2出力軸41,41と連結する左右の補助入力軸201,201をユニバーサルジョイント等の屈曲可能な回転軸とし、補助駆動スプロケット203,203を後方に移動可能な構成とすると共に、補助従動スプロケット210,210は前後方向に移動しない構成とすることも考えられる。   In the above configuration, when the vertical position of the auxiliary position aligning device 213 is changed, the front end side moves back and forth, and the position of the rear end does not change. For example, it is connected to the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41. The left and right auxiliary input shafts 201 and 201 are bendable rotary shafts such as universal joints, the auxiliary drive sprockets 203 and 203 are configured to be movable rearward, and the auxiliary driven sprockets 210 and 210 are configured not to move in the front-rear direction. It can also be considered.

上記の構成により、左右のカップリング202,202を回転操作して左右の補助入力軸201,201を上下移動させると、上端部側を左右の伝動ケース37,37に取り付けている左右のガイドレール212,212の切欠溝212a,212aに差し込まれた左右のスライドピン211,211がガイドレール212,212によって上昇または下降させられ、これにより左右のスライドフレーム208,208が前後移動して左右のスプリング206,206を伸縮させることができる。   With the above configuration, when the left and right auxiliary input shafts 201 and 201 are moved up and down by rotating the left and right couplings 202 and 202, the left and right guide rails that are attached to the left and right transmission cases 37 and 37, respectively. The left and right slide pins 211 and 211 inserted into the notch grooves 212a and 212a of the 212 and 212 are raised or lowered by the guide rails 212 and 212, whereby the left and right slide frames 208 and 208 move back and forth to move the left and right springs. 206 and 206 can be expanded and contracted.

具体的には、カップリング202,202を上昇側に回すと、ガイドレール212,212の上昇に伴いスライドピン211,211が上方に引き上げられ、これによりスライドフレーム208,208が後方に引き下げられてスプリング206,206が収縮させられることにより、補助位置揃え装置213の前後長さが位置揃え装置54と略同じ前後長さにまで収縮可能な構成となる。一方、カップリング202,202を下降側に回すと、ガイドレール212,212の下降に伴いスライドピン211,211が下方に押し下げられ、これによりスライドフレーム208,208が前方に押し出されてスプリング206,206が伸張することにより、補助位置揃え装置213の前後長さが位置揃え装置54の前後長さよりも長くなるように伸張可能な構成となる。   Specifically, when the couplings 202 and 202 are turned upward, the slide pins 211 and 211 are lifted upward as the guide rails 212 and 212 are lifted, whereby the slide frames 208 and 208 are pulled backward. By contracting the springs 206, 206, the auxiliary position aligning device 213 can be contracted to the front and back length substantially the same as the position aligning device 54. On the other hand, when the couplings 202 and 202 are turned downward, the slide pins 211 and 211 are pushed downward as the guide rails 212 and 212 are lowered, thereby pushing the slide frames 208 and 208 forward and springs 206 and 212. By extending 206, the auxiliary position aligning device 213 can be extended so that the longitudinal length of the auxiliary aligning device 213 is longer than the longitudinal length of the aligning device 54.

そして、前記左右第1ギアユニット38,38の位置揃え装置54の後方位置に左右の切断刃回転軸56,56を軸着し、該切断刃回転軸56,56に左右のベアリング57,57を回転自在に取り付ける。そして、前記左右のベアリング57,57に左右の支持プレート59,59を取り付け、該支持プレート59,59に左右の茎葉切断刃60,60を取り付けて、茎葉切断装置61が構成される。   The left and right cutting blade rotation shafts 56 and 56 are attached to the rear position of the alignment device 54 of the left and right first gear units 38 and 38, and the left and right bearings 57 and 57 are attached to the cutting blade rotation shafts 56 and 56, respectively.

Then, left and right support plates 59, 59 are attached to the left and right bearings 57, 57, and left and right foliage cutting blades 60, 60 are attached to the support plates 59, 59 to constitute a foliage cutting device 61.

また、前記左右第1出力軸40,40に左右茎葉搬送駆動プーリ62,62を軸着し、前記左右第1ギアユニット38,38よりも機体前側で且つ位置揃え装置54L,54Rの上方に左右茎葉搬送従動プーリ63,63を回転自在に取り付ける。そして、該左右茎葉搬送駆動プーリ62,62と左右茎葉搬送従動プーリ63,63とに左右排葉搬送ベルト64,64を無端状に巻回することによって、前記引抜搬送装置24から玉葱の茎葉部を引き継いで機体後方に排出する排葉搬送装置65が、前記左右の伝動ケース37,37の上部外周で且つ引抜搬送装置24の搬送終端側の下方に構成される。   Further, left and right foliage conveyance drive pulleys 62 and 62 are attached to the left and right first output shafts 40 and 40, and the left and right foliage conveyance drive pulleys 62 and 62 are attached to the front side of the machine body above the left and right first gear units 38 and 38 and above the alignment devices 54L and 54R. The foliage driven pulleys 63 and 63 are rotatably attached. Then, by winding the left and right defoliation conveyor belts 64 and 64 endlessly around the left and right foliage conveyance driving pulleys 62 and 62 and the left and right foliage conveyance driven pulleys 63 and 63, Is disposed below the left and right transmission cases 37 and 37 and below the end of conveyance of the pulling and conveying device 24.

さらに、前記左右第1出力軸40,40の上端部に左右残葉搬送駆動プーリ66,66を軸着し、前記伝動ケース37,37の上方に左右残葉搬送従動プーリ67,67を回転自在に取り付けるとともに、該左右残葉搬送駆動プーリ66,66と左右残葉搬送従動プーリ67,67との前後間に複数の左右の残葉搬送テンションプーリ68,68…を取り付ける。そして、前記左右残葉搬送駆動プーリ66,66と左右残葉搬送従動プーリ67,67と左右残葉搬送テンションプーリ68,68…とに左右残葉搬送ベルト69,69を無端状に巻回することによって、茎葉の上部を挟持して機体後方に搬送する残葉搬送装置70が、前記排葉搬送装置65の上方に構成される。   Further, left and right remaining leaf conveyance drive pulleys 66 and 66 are pivotally attached to the upper ends of the left and right first output shafts 40 and 40, and the left and right remaining leaf conveyance driven pulleys 67 and 67 are rotatable above the transmission cases 37 and 37. A plurality of left and right remaining leaf conveyance tension pulleys 68, 68 are attached between the left and right remaining leaf conveyance driving pulleys 66, 66 and the left and right remaining leaf conveyance driven pulleys 67, 67. Then, left and right residual leaf conveyance belts 69, 69 are wound endlessly around the left and right residual leaf conveyance driving pulleys 66, 66, left and right residual leaf conveyance driven pulleys 67, 67, and left and right residual leaf conveyance tension pulleys 68, 68. Thus, the remaining leaf conveyance device 70 that sandwiches the upper part of the foliage and conveys it to the rear of the machine body is configured above the defoliation conveyance device 65.

上記排葉搬送装置65と残葉搬送装置70の終端部から茎葉切断装置61によって切断された茎葉を圃場に排出する排葉シュータ71を設けて、茎葉切断部Dを構成する。   A foliage shooter 71 for discharging the foliage cut by the foliage cutting device 61 from the end portions of the above-mentioned foliage conveyance device 65 and the remaining leaf conveyance device 70 to the field is provided to constitute the foliage cutting portion D.

上記構成により、左右の位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42が、茎葉部が通過する位置揃え装置54の左右間隔部から離間する位置に配置されることにより、位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42や第2出力軸41,41に茎葉部が絡み付いて位置揃え装置54を停止させてしまうことを防止できるので、収穫作業が中断されず、作業能率が向上する。   With the above configuration, the left and right alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42 are arranged at positions separated from the left and right spacing portions of the alignment device 54 through which the foliage passes, so that the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42 and the second output are output. Since it is possible to prevent the stems and leaves from being entangled with the shafts 41 and 41 and stop the alignment device 54, the harvesting operation is not interrupted and the work efficiency is improved.

また、位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42を位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45及び位置揃えテンションスプロケット47,47よりも小径としたことにより、位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42がいっそう位置揃え装置54の左右間隔部から離間するので、位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42や第2出力軸41,41に茎葉部が絡み付くことをいっそう防止でき、作業能率がさらに向上する。   Further, since the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42 have a smaller diameter than the alignment driven sprockets 45 and 45 and the alignment tension sprockets 47 and 47, the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42 are further spaced apart from each other by the left and right spacing portions of the alignment device 54. Therefore, it is possible to further prevent the stems and leaves from being entangled with the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42 and the second output shafts 41 and 41, and the work efficiency is further improved.

そして、位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を付勢する左右の付勢バネ50,50を設けたことにより、位置揃え装置54に茎葉部が接触する際に左右の位置揃えチェーン48,48に生じる弛みを吸収させることができ、位置揃えチェーン48,48がすぐに張り状態に戻るため、径の異なる茎葉部が連続して通過するときでも位置揃え装置54が確実に玉葱の茎葉部を受けることができ、玉葱の茎葉部の切断位置が適正に揃えられて茎葉部が適正に切断され、後工程で茎葉部を除去する必要が無く、作業能率が向上する。   Further, by providing the left and right biasing springs 50 and 50 for biasing the alignment driven sprockets 45 and 45, the slack that occurs in the left and right alignment chains 48 and 48 when the foliage comes into contact with the alignment device 54. Since the alignment chains 48 and 48 immediately return to the tension state, the alignment device 54 can reliably receive the foliage of the onion even when the foliage of different diameters pass continuously. In addition, the cutting positions of the onions and stems of the onion are properly aligned and the stems and leaves are appropriately cut, and there is no need to remove the stems and leaves in a subsequent process, thereby improving work efficiency.

また、左右の受け板49,49を前後方向に移動させることで付勢バネ50,50の張力が調節されることにより、玉葱の生育状況や品種による茎葉部の径の差異、あるいは天候や土質等、作業場所の作業条件に合わせて張力を適正に変更できるので、茎葉部を切断する際に収穫部を切断することが防止され、作物の商品価値が向上する。   Further, by adjusting the tension of the biasing springs 50, 50 by moving the left and right receiving plates 49, 49 in the front-rear direction, the growth situation of the onion, the difference in the diameter of the foliage depending on the variety, the weather and the soil Since the tension can be appropriately changed according to the working conditions of the working place, etc., cutting the harvesting part when cutting the foliage part is prevented, and the commercial value of the crop is improved.

なお、玉葱は収穫部にある程度の茎葉部が残る位置で切断するのが最適な切断である。収穫部と茎葉部の境界を切ると、玉葱の内部が露出してしまい、内部が過度に乾燥して品質が低下してしまうためである。   It is best to cut the onion at a position where a certain amount of foliage remains in the harvesting part. This is because if the boundary between the harvesting part and the foliage part is cut, the inside of the onion is exposed, the inside is excessively dried, and the quality is deteriorated.

さらに、左右の位置揃えフレーム43,43に機体左右方向の孔部44,44を形成し、この孔部44,44に位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を軸着した回転軸46,46を移動自在に設けたことにより、負荷がかからない状態では、付勢バネ50,50に付勢された位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45は茎葉部の搬送経路寄りに移動するので、小径の茎葉部が通過する際に位置揃え装置54が茎葉部を受けて玉葱の茎葉部の切断位置を適正に揃えることができ、後工程で玉葱に残る茎葉部を取り除く必要がなくなり、作業能率が向上する。   Further, the left and right alignment frames 43, 43 are formed with holes 44, 44 in the left-right direction of the machine body, and the rotation shafts 46, 46 having the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 attached to the holes 44, 44 are movable. In the state where no load is applied, the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 urged by the urging springs 50, 50 move toward the conveyance path of the foliage, so that the small foliage passes through. Therefore, the position aligning device 54 can receive the foliage portion to properly align the cutting position of the onion foliage portion, eliminating the need to remove the foliage portion remaining on the onion in a later step, and improving the work efficiency.

また、大径の茎葉部が通過する際、位置揃え装置54に大きな負荷がかかると、位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45は孔部44,44に沿って茎葉部の移動経路から離間する方向に移動するので、位置揃え装置54の前側の左右間隔が広くなり、茎葉部が位置揃え装置54の間隔部に噛み込まれることを防止でき、機体を止めて噛み込まれた茎葉部を取り除く必要が無く、作業能率が向上する。   Further, when a large load is applied to the alignment device 54 when the large diameter foliage portion passes, the alignment driven sprockets 45, 45 move along the holes 44, 44 away from the movement path of the foliage portion. Therefore, the left and right intervals on the front side of the alignment device 54 are widened, the foliage portion can be prevented from being bitten into the gap portion of the alignment device 54, and there is no need to stop the body and remove the bitten foliage portion. , Work efficiency is improved.

なお、玉葱の茎葉部が須らく大径であることが収穫作業前にわかっている場合には、位置揃え従動スプロケット45,45を位置揃え装置54の左右間から離間する方向に移動させ、位置揃え装置54の搬送方向上手側の左右間隔を広くしておくと、位置揃え装置54が茎葉部を噛み込むことを防止でき、噛み込んだ茎葉部を取り除く作業が必要なく、作業能率が向上する。   If it is known before harvesting that the stems and leaves of the onion have a large diameter, the alignment driven sprockets 45 and 45 are moved away from the left and right of the alignment device 54 to align the alignment. If the left-right distance on the upper side in the conveying direction of the device 54 is increased, the alignment device 54 can be prevented from biting the foliage part, and there is no need to remove the bited foliage part, thereby improving the work efficiency.

そして、位置揃えチェーン48,48の巻回域内に左右のテンションプレート53L,53Rを設けたことにより、位置揃えチェーン48,48を巻回域内から押圧するため、大径の茎葉部が通過する際、テンションプレート53,53が押圧していない部分の位置揃えチェーン48,48は位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42の方向へ退避できるので、茎葉部が位置揃え装置54の左右間に噛み込まれることが無く、機体を止めて噛み込まれた茎葉部を取り除く必要が無く、作業能率が向上する。   When the right and left tension plates 53L and 53R are provided in the winding region of the alignment chains 48 and 48, the alignment chains 48 and 48 are pressed from within the winding region. Since the alignment chains 48 and 48 of the portion where the tension plates 53 and 53 are not pressed can be retracted in the direction of the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42, the foliage may be caught between the left and right of the alignment device 54. In addition, it is not necessary to remove the foliage that has been bitten by stopping the airframe, improving the work efficiency.

また、位置揃え駆動スプロケット42,42の外周を移動する位置揃えガイド体52,52に付着した茎葉部の破片や泥等の夾雑物を擦り落とす左右のスクレーパ55,55を設けたことによって、茎葉部の移動経路から離れて位置で位置揃えガイド体52,52に付着した夾雑物を除去することができるので、茎葉部の破片が位置揃え装置54の各部に絡み付くことが防止され、機体を止めて絡み付いた茎葉部の破片を取り除く必要が無く作業能率が向上すると共に、泥の塊が玉葱の根部を傷つけることが防止され、玉葱の商品価値が向上する。   Further, by providing left and right scrapers 55 and 55 for scrubbing debris and dirt such as mud adhering to the alignment guide bodies 52 and 52 moving on the outer periphery of the alignment drive sprockets 42 and 42, Since the foreign substances adhering to the alignment guide bodies 52, 52 can be removed at a position away from the moving path of the parts, the foliage fragments are prevented from getting entangled with each part of the alignment device 54, and the machine body is stopped. This eliminates the need to remove the tangled stalks and leaves, improving the work efficiency and preventing the mud from damaging the root of the onion, thereby improving the commercial value of the onion.

さらに、スクレーパ55,55は長穴に沿って取り付け位置を変更することができるので、収穫作業を行う圃場の玉葱の茎葉部の径の平均に合わせて最適な位置にスクレーパ55,55を設定し、確実に茎葉部の破片や泥等の夾雑物を位置揃えガイド体52,52から除去することにより、上記の効果がさらに向上する。   Furthermore, since the installation positions of the scrapers 55 and 55 can be changed along the long holes, the scrapers 55 and 55 are set at optimum positions in accordance with the average diameter of the stems and leaves of the onion where the harvesting operation is performed. The above-described effect is further improved by reliably removing the debris of the foliage and dirt such as mud from the alignment guide bodies 52 and 52.

そして、左右のカップリング202,202を回転させると補助位置揃え装置213の上下高さと前後長さを変更できる構成としたことにより、玉葱のように茎葉部が上下に長く収穫部(鱗茎部)が短い作物を収穫する際は、補助位置揃え装置213を下降させて前後長さを長く構成すると共に、人参等の茎葉部と収穫部(根部)の長さの差が小さい作物を収穫する際は、補助位置揃え装置213を上昇させて前後長さを短く構成することができるので、異なる作物の収穫作業が可能となり、汎用性が向上する。   And when the left and right couplings 202, 202 are rotated, the vertical height and the longitudinal length of the auxiliary alignment device 213 can be changed, so that the foliage part is long in the vertical direction like an onion, and the harvesting part (bulb part) When harvesting short crops, the auxiliary alignment device 213 is lowered to make the front and back length longer, and when harvesting crops with a small difference in length between the stem and leaf parts of the carrots and the harvesting part (root part) Since the auxiliary position aligning device 213 can be raised to shorten the front-rear length, different crops can be harvested and versatility is improved.

また、収穫する玉葱や人参の品種やサイズに合わせて上下位置を調節することができるので、茎葉部の切断位置が適切になり収穫部を傷付けることが防止され、玉葱や人参の商品価値が向上する。   In addition, since the vertical position can be adjusted according to the variety and size of onion and carrots to be harvested, the cutting position of the foliage part is appropriate, preventing damage to the harvesting part, and improving the product value of onions and carrots To do.

さらに、左右のガイドレール212,212を引抜搬送装置24と同じ傾斜角度で後下がり傾斜姿勢としたことにより、補助位置揃え装置213の上下高さを変更しても補助位置揃え装置213と位置揃え装置54の位置関係を平行のまま維持することができるので、玉葱や人参の位置揃え姿勢が乱れることが無く、茎葉部の切断位置が安定する。   Further, the left and right guide rails 212 and 212 are rearwardly inclined at the same inclination angle as that of the pulling / conveying device 24, so that even if the vertical height of the auxiliary position aligning device 213 is changed, the position alignment with the auxiliary position aligning device 213 is performed. Since the positional relationship of the device 54 can be maintained in parallel, the alignment position of onions and carrots is not disturbed, and the cutting position of the foliage is stabilized.

なお、図1及び図10で示す通り、人参を収穫するときや、玉葱に長めに茎葉部を残す必要があるときなど、補助位置揃え装置213を位置揃え装置54の直下まで上昇させて前後長さを短くしたときは、引抜搬送装置24から位置揃え装置54及び補助位置揃え装置213に玉葱や人参の茎葉部を案内する、左右一対の茎葉案内ガイド35,35を左右の引抜フレーム15,15に各々取り付ける。   In addition, as shown in FIG.1 and FIG.10, when harvesting carrots or when it is necessary to leave a foliage part longer on the onion, the auxiliary alignment device 213 is raised to a position just below the alignment device 54 to increase the longitudinal length. When the length is shortened, a pair of left and right foliage guides 35 and 35 for guiding onion and carrot foliage from the pulling and conveying device 24 to the position aligning device 54 and the auxiliary position aligning device 213 are inserted into the left and right pulling frames 15 and 15. Attach to each.

上記により、引抜搬送装置24から位置揃え装置54及び補助位置揃え装置213に茎葉部が引き継がれるまで、茎葉部を左右の茎葉案内ガイド35,35が案内することにより、茎葉部が位置揃え装置54及び補助位置揃え装置213の搬送域に入り込まず、玉葱や人参が落下してしまうことを防止できるので、落下の衝撃で玉葱や人参が傷付くことが防止され、商品価値が向上すると共に、玉葱や人参に茎葉部が残った茎葉部を人手で切断する作業が不要となり、作業能率が向上すると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。   As described above, the foliage is guided by the left and right foliage guides 35 and 35 until the foliage is transferred from the pulling and conveying device 24 to the alignment device 54 and the auxiliary alignment device 213, so that the foliage is aligned. In addition, since the onion and carrot can be prevented from falling without entering the conveyance area of the auxiliary position aligning device 213, the onion and carrot are prevented from being damaged by the impact of the drop, and the commercial value is improved. In addition, it is not necessary to manually cut the foliage part in which the foliage part remains in the carrot, and the work efficiency is improved and the labor of the operator is reduced.

後述の搬送調製装置 は、玉葱に残っている茎葉部を設定した位置で切断するものであるが、茎葉部が長過ぎると搬送途中で茎葉部が倒伏し、適切な位置で切断できなくなることや茎葉部が詰まって搬送が停滞してしまう問題が生じ得るので、作業者が移動させる前に茎葉部を切断する必要があり、この間玉葱の移動及び選別作業が中断され、作業能率が低下する。従って、玉葱は茎葉切断装置61により茎葉部を所定長さに亘って切断されてから一時貯留部Eに移動することが望ましい。   The transfer preparation device described below cuts the leaves and leaves that remain in the onion, but if the leaves and leaves are too long, the leaves and leaves fall down during the transfer and cannot be cut at an appropriate position. Since a problem may occur that the foliage is clogged and the conveyance is stagnated, it is necessary to cut the foliage before the operator moves it. During this time, the movement and sorting of the onion are interrupted, and the work efficiency is reduced. Therefore, it is desirable that the onion is moved to the temporary storage part E after the foliage part is cut over a predetermined length by the foliage cutting device 61.

そして、茎葉切断装置61で玉葱から切断された排葉(切断された茎葉部)を圃場に排出する排葉シュータ71が、既掘り側(玉葱を収穫し終えた側)に茎葉を排出するように下方傾斜姿勢に設けられていることによって、排出された茎葉が未掘り側(玉葱を収穫していない側)の玉葱の上に落下し、排葉が左右の引抜搬送ベルト18,18や左右の従動プーリ16,16等に絡み付いて収穫部Cを停止させて収穫作業を妨げることが防止できるので、作業能率が向上すると共に、玉葱の上に落下した排葉が収穫する玉葱の視認性を妨げることを防止できる。   Then, the leaf discharge shooter 71 that discharges the leaves (cut stems and leaves) cut from the onion by the stem and leaf cutting device 61 to the field so that the leaves and leaves are discharged to the already dug side (the side on which the onion has been harvested). Is provided in a downwardly inclined posture, the discharged stems and leaves fall on the undeveloping side (the side where the onion is not harvested), and the drainage leaves the left and right pulling conveyor belts 18, 18 and the left and right Can be prevented from stopping the harvesting section C by being entangled with the driven pulleys 16, 16, and the like, thereby preventing the harvesting operation from being interrupted, improving the work efficiency and improving the visibility of the onion harvested by the fallen leaves falling on the onion. Can prevent obstruction.

なお、上記の補助位置揃え装置213の上下調節は、作業者が手作業で行う構成であるが、下記の構成としてもよい。なお、前記補助位置揃え装置213と同一の構成である部分については、重複を避けるべく記載を省略する。   The vertical adjustment of the auxiliary alignment device 213 is configured to be performed manually by an operator, but may be configured as follows. In addition, about the part which is the same structure as the said auxiliary position alignment apparatus 213, description is abbreviate | omitted in order to avoid duplication.

図11、図12で示す通り、前記左右の第2出力軸41,41を中空とし、該左右の第2出力軸41,41の内部に左右の補助入力軸214,214を上下方向に移動自在に挿入する。該左右の補助入力軸214,214の外周部には、少なくとも左右の第2出力軸41,41の径と略同径の蛇腹状の保護カバー214a,214aを各々伸縮自在に設け、前記左右の補助入力軸214,214が露出しない構成とする。前記左右の補助入力軸214,214の下端部には、前記左右の補助駆動スプロケット203,203を装着する。   As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41 are hollow, and the left and right auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214 are movable in the vertical direction inside the left and right second output shafts 41 and 41. Insert into. Bellows-shaped protective covers 214a, 214a having substantially the same diameter as the diameters of the left and right second output shafts 41, 41 are provided on the outer peripheral portions of the left and right auxiliary input shafts 214, 214, respectively, so that they can be expanded and contracted. The auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214 are not exposed. The left and right auxiliary drive sprockets 203 and 203 are attached to the lower ends of the left and right auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214, respectively.

そして、前記左右の伝動ケース37,37の上部で且つ左右の補助入力軸214,214の上端部に、該左右の補助入力軸214,214を上下移動させる左右の操作ノブ215,215を各々設け、該左右の操作ノブ215,215に従動ギア216,216を各々設け、該従動ギア216,216と噛み合う駆動ギア217,217を各々装着した上下移動モータ218,218を各々伝動ケース37,37上に設ける。   Left and right operation knobs 215 and 215 for vertically moving the left and right auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214 are provided above the left and right transmission cases 37 and 37 and at the upper ends of the left and right auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214, respectively. The left and right operation knobs 215 and 215 are provided with driven gears 216 and 216, respectively, and the vertical movement motors 218 and 218 mounted with the driven gears 217 and 217 engaged with the driven gears 216 and 216 are respectively mounted on the transmission cases 37 and 37, respectively. Provided.

また、前記操縦部Bの操縦パネル12に該上下移動モータ218,218を作動させて補助位置揃え装置213の上下位置を変更操作する上下操作スイッチ219を設ける。   Further, an up / down operation switch 219 for operating the up / down movement motors 218, 218 to change the up / down position of the auxiliary position alignment device 213 is provided on the control panel 12 of the control unit B.

さらに、図13で示す通り、前記左右の伝動ケース37,37の前端部に、前記左右のガイドレール212,212の有無を検知する左右のレール検知センサ220,220を設け、該左右のレール検知センサ220,220が検知状態になると点灯する第1ランプ221を前記操作パネル12に設ける。   Further, as shown in FIG. 13, left and right rail detection sensors 220 and 220 for detecting the presence or absence of the left and right guide rails 212 and 212 are provided at the front ends of the left and right transmission cases 37 and 37, respectively. A first lamp 221 that is turned on when the sensors 220 and 220 are in a detection state is provided on the operation panel 12.

なお、レール検知センサ220,220は接触式のセンサ、非接触式のセンサのどちらでも構わない。また、第1ランプ221が点灯するときは、左右のガイドレール212,212がレール検知センサ220,220の前方に位置しているときであり、補助位置揃え装置213は上方移動して人参の収穫作業形態となっているので、赤やオレンジのランプとすると、作業者が現在の作業状態を視覚的に把握しやすくなる。   The rail detection sensors 220 and 220 may be either contact type sensors or non-contact type sensors. The first lamp 221 is lit when the left and right guide rails 212 and 212 are positioned in front of the rail detection sensors 220 and 220, and the auxiliary alignment device 213 moves upward to harvest the carrot. Since it is a work form, the red and orange lamps make it easier for the worker to visually grasp the current work state.

これに加えて、レール検知センサ220,220が非検知状態であるときは、補助位置揃え装置213は下方に位置し、玉葱の収穫作業形態となっているので、白や黄色の第2ランプ222を設け、作業者が補助位置揃え装置213の現在の作業状態をより視覚的に把握しやすくなる。   In addition to this, when the rail detection sensors 220 and 220 are in the non-detection state, the auxiliary alignment device 213 is positioned below and is in the onion harvesting form, so the white or yellow second lamp 222 This makes it easier for the operator to visually grasp the current working state of the auxiliary alignment device 213.

さらに、人参の収穫作業形態では補助位置揃え装置213は上方、玉葱の収穫作業形態では補助位置揃え装置213は下方に位置するので、該第1ランプ221を上側、第2ランプ222を下側に配置すると、作業者はさらに視覚的な判断が容易になる。   Further, since the auxiliary alignment device 213 is located above in the carrot harvesting operation form and the auxiliary alignment device 213 is located below in the onion harvesting operation form, the first lamp 221 is on the upper side and the second lamp 222 is on the lower side. Arrangement makes it easier for the operator to make a visual decision.

上記構成としたことにより、作業者は操縦座席11に座ったままでも補助位置揃え装置213の作業形態を変更することができるので、補助位置揃え装置213の操作の度に移動する必要が無く、作業能率が向上する。   By adopting the above configuration, the operator can change the work mode of the auxiliary alignment device 213 even while sitting on the control seat 11, so there is no need to move each time the auxiliary alignment device 213 is operated. Work efficiency is improved.

また、補助入力軸214,214の外周部に保護カバー214a,214aを設けたことにより、玉葱や人参の茎葉部が補助入力軸214,214に直接絡み付くことを防止できるので、茎葉部が巻き付いて補助入力軸214,214の回転が停滞することが防止されて作業能率が向上すると共に、巻き付いた茎葉部を除去する作業が不要となり、作業者の労力が軽減される。   Further, by providing protective covers 214a and 214a on the outer peripheral portions of the auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214, it is possible to prevent the stems and leaves of onions and carrots from being directly entangled with the auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214. The rotation of the auxiliary input shafts 214 and 214 is prevented from stagnation, and the work efficiency is improved. Further, the work of removing the wound foliage is unnecessary, and the labor of the operator is reduced.

そして、保護カバー214a,214aを蛇腹状としたことにより、補助位置揃え装置213を上下移動させる際に保護カバー214a,214aは伸び縮みすることができるので、補助位置揃え装置213の上下移動操作の際に保護カバー214a,214aを取り外す必要がなく、作業能率が向上する。   Since the protective covers 214a and 214a are formed in a bellows shape, the protective covers 214a and 214a can be expanded and contracted when the auxiliary positioning device 213 is moved up and down. At this time, it is not necessary to remove the protective covers 214a and 214a, and the work efficiency is improved.

そして、保護カバー214a,214aを少なくとも第2出力軸41,41の径と略同径としたことにより、補助位置揃え装置213を上方に移動させる際に保護カバー214a,214aが第2出力軸41,41の内部に入り込むことを防止できるので、保護カバー214a,214aが破損することが防止されると共に、第2出力軸41,41が停止しなくなることが防止される。   Since the protective covers 214a and 214a are at least approximately the same diameter as the second output shafts 41 and 41, the protective covers 214a and 214a are moved to the second output shaft 41 when the auxiliary alignment device 213 is moved upward. , 41 can be prevented, so that the protective covers 214a, 214a are prevented from being damaged, and the second output shafts 41, 41 are prevented from not stopping.

また、上下移動モータ218,218の操作を上下操作レバー223で行うものとし、該上下操作レバー223の操作量を検知するポテンショメータ224を設け、該ポテンショメータ224の検知する上下操作レバー223の操作量から、上下移動モータ218,218の回転方向及び回転時間を決定する構成とすると、該上下操作レバー223の操作量から補助位置揃え装置213の上下位置を判断することが可能になるので、前記操作パネル12にレベルゲージ224を設け、収穫する作物や茎葉部の切断位置を細かく調節することができ、作物に残る茎葉部の処理作業が不要となり、作業能率が向上する。
そして、茎葉部の切断時に作物を傷付けることが防止され、作物の商品価値が向上する。
Further, it is assumed that the vertical movement motors 218 and 218 are operated by the vertical operation lever 223, and a potentiometer 224 for detecting the operation amount of the vertical operation lever 223 is provided, and from the operation amount of the vertical operation lever 223 detected by the potentiometer 224. If the rotation direction and rotation time of the vertical movement motors 218 and 218 are determined, the vertical position of the auxiliary alignment device 213 can be determined from the operation amount of the vertical operation lever 223. 12 is provided with a level gauge 224, and the cutting position of the crop to be harvested and the foliage can be finely adjusted, so that the processing of the foliage remaining in the crop becomes unnecessary, and the work efficiency is improved.
And it is prevented that a crop is damaged at the time of cutting of a foliage part, and the commercial value of a crop improves.

次に、一時貯留部Eについて説明する。
図1から図3で示すとおり、前記茎葉切断装置61の下方に前後の保持フレーム72,72を設け、該保持フレーム72,72の機体左右一側の前後間に搬送従動ローラ73aを回転自在に取り付ける。また、前記前後の保持フレーム72,72の機体左右他側の前後間で且つ搬送従動ローラ73aよりも下方位置に搬送駆動ローラ73bを回転自在に取り付ける。そして、該搬送従動ローラ73aと搬送駆動ローラ73bとにゴムやウレタン等の弾性体で構成する作物搬送ベルト74を無端状に巻回することにより、茎葉切断部Dから引き継いだ玉葱を機体外側方向から左右内側方向に搬送する作物搬送コンベア75を構成する。該作物搬送コンベア75は、機体左右一側から左右他側に向けて2〜5度程度傾斜させると、玉葱が搬送順路を逆行しにくくなり、搬送能率が向上する。
Next, the temporary storage unit E will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, front and rear holding frames 72, 72 are provided below the foliage cutting device 61, and the transport driven roller 73 a is rotatable between the front and rear sides of the left and right sides of the holding frame 72, 72. Install. Further, a transport driving roller 73b is rotatably mounted between the front and rear holding frames 72, 72 between the front and rear of the left and right sides of the machine body and below the transport driven roller 73a. And the onion which inherited from the foliage cutting part D is wound around the conveyance direction roller 73a and the conveyance drive roller 73b endlessly by winding the crop conveyance belt 74 comprised with elastic bodies, such as rubber | gum and urethane, in the body outer direction. The crop conveyance conveyor 75 which conveys from left to right inside is comprised. When the crop conveyor 75 is inclined about 2 to 5 degrees from the left and right sides of the machine body to the left and right sides of the machine body, the onion is less likely to travel backward in the transfer route, and the transfer efficiency is improved.

また、該作物搬送コンベア75の搬送終端部に玉葱を機体前側に移動させる案内壁76を前後方向に設け、作物搬送コンベア75の前部に玉葱を受けて一時的に貯留する貯留ホッパ77を設ける。さらに、前記作物搬送コンベア75の搬送終端側の下方には、後述する補助作業用座席108に着座する補助作業者が、貯留ホッパ77に貯留された玉葱のうち商品としての出荷に適さないもの(例えば、傷が有る、腐っている、極端に小さい等)を選別しておく選別用コンテナ78を配置する。   Further, a guide wall 76 for moving the onion to the front side of the machine body is provided in the front and rear direction at the end of conveyance of the crop conveyance conveyor 75, and a storage hopper 77 for receiving and storing the onion at the front of the crop conveyance conveyor 75 is provided. . Furthermore, below the conveyance termination side of the crop conveyance conveyor 75, an auxiliary worker sitting on an auxiliary work seat 108, which will be described later, is not suitable for shipment as a product among the onions stored in the storage hopper 77 ( For example, a sorting container 78 for sorting out scratched, rotten, extremely small, etc.) is arranged.

なお、出荷に適さない玉葱は、圃場に放棄して土壌に還元させても問題は無いが、放棄する位置によっては石や土塊と同様に玉葱収穫機の走行を妨げる可能性があるが、選別用コンテナ78に貯留しておき、収穫作業の終了後に放棄することにより、この問題の発生を防止することができる。   Onion that is not suitable for shipment can be abandoned in the field and returned to the soil. However, depending on where it is abandoned, it may interfere with the onion harvester as well as stones and clumps. This problem can be prevented by storing in the container 78 and abandoning it after the harvesting operation is completed.

上記の構成では、これにより、落下した玉葱は作物搬送ベルト74の駆動と傾斜による移動により移動するので、作物搬送コンベア76上で玉葱の移動が停止することがなく、手作業で停止した玉葱を動かす必要がなく、作業能率が向上する。また、残葉処理コンベア76が若干(約2〜5度)傾斜していることにより、機体が圃場の状態等により機体左右一側方向に傾斜しても作物搬送コンベア76は地面に対して略水平状態となるに留まるので、玉葱が作物搬送コンベア76上に停滞したり、作物搬送コンベア76の搬送方向とは逆方向に移動したりすることがなく、こうした玉葱を手作業で搬送経路に戻す必要がなく、作業能率が向上する。   In the above-described configuration, the onion thus dropped is moved by the movement of the crop conveyance belt 74 and the movement by the inclination, so that the movement of the onion does not stop on the crop conveyance conveyor 76, and the onion stopped manually is removed. There is no need to move it, improving work efficiency. In addition, since the remaining leaf processing conveyor 76 is slightly inclined (about 2 to 5 degrees), the crop conveyance conveyor 76 is substantially in relation to the ground even if the machine is inclined in the left-right direction of the machine depending on the state of the field. Since the onion stays in a horizontal state, the onion does not stagnate on the crop conveyance conveyor 76 or move in the direction opposite to the conveyance direction of the crop conveyance conveyor 76, and such onion is manually returned to the conveyance path. There is no need to improve work efficiency.

また、作物搬送コンベア76を構成する作物搬送ベルト74をゴムやウレタン等の弾性体で構成したことによって、茎葉切断装置61で茎葉部を切除されて玉葱が落下しても作物搬送ベルト74が落下の衝撃を軽減するので、落下の衝撃で玉葱が傷付くことが防止され、玉葱の品質が向上する。   Further, since the crop transport belt 74 constituting the crop transport conveyor 76 is made of an elastic material such as rubber or urethane, the crop transport belt 74 is dropped even if the foliage is cut off by the foliage cutting device 61 and the onion falls. Since the impact of the ball is reduced, the onion is prevented from being damaged by the impact of the drop, and the quality of the onion is improved.

そして、作物搬送コンベア76の搬送終端部に案内壁77に案内されて貯留ホッパ77に一時的に貯留されることにより、引抜搬送装置24に引き抜かれて搬送されてくる玉葱の数が多くても、作業者は貯留ホッパ77に貯留された玉葱の状態の確認や搬送調製部Fへの移動を任意のタイミングで行うことができるので、玉葱の選別精度が向上すると共に、玉葱の調製作業の精度が向上する。   And even if there are a large number of onions that are pulled out and transported by the pulling and transporting device 24 by being guided by the guide wall 77 at the transport end of the crop transporting conveyor 76 and temporarily stored in the storage hopper 77. The operator can check the state of the onion stored in the storage hopper 77 and move to the transport preparation unit F at an arbitrary timing, so that the onion selection accuracy is improved and the onion preparation accuracy is improved. Will improve.

次に、搬送調製部Fについて説明する。

The shafts 96a and 96a extend through the leaf cutting and conveying frames 91 and 91 downward.

また、延長した前後の回転軸96a,96aの下端部に側面視でコの字型の葉切り支持プレート99を設け、該葉切り支持プレート99の後側端部と機体後側の調整搬送フレーム79とに上下一対の葉切り平行リンクアーム100,100を上下方向に回動自在に設け、該葉切り平行リンクアーム100,100を上下方向に回動操作する第2切断位置調節レバー101を設け、該第2切断位置調節レバー101の後端部を機体後側の調整搬送フレーム79に形成した上下方向の第2調節孔部79cから機体後方に突出させる。   Also, a U-shaped leaf cutting support plate 99 is provided at the lower ends of the extended front and rear rotating shafts 96a, 96a in a side view, and the rear end portion of the leaf cutting support plate 99 and the adjustment conveyance frame on the rear side of the machine body. 79 is provided with a pair of upper and lower leaf-cutting parallel link arms 100, 100 that are pivotable in the vertical direction, and a second cutting position adjusting lever 101 that pivots the leaf-cutting parallel link arms 100, 100 in the vertical direction. The rear end portion of the second cutting position adjusting lever 101 is projected rearward from the second adjusting hole 79c in the vertical direction formed in the adjusting conveyance frame 79 on the rear side of the body.

該第2切断位置調節レバー101を操作して葉切り平行リンクアーム100,100を上下回動操作すると、葉切り支持プレート99が連動して上下移動して回転軸96a,96aを上下動させ、回転軸96a,96aに押し引きされて葉切り伸縮出力軸97,97が伸縮することにより、茎葉部切断刃98,98の切断位置を上下方向に変更する構成となる。   When the second cutting position adjusting lever 101 is operated to move the leaf cutting parallel link arms 100 and 100 up and down, the leaf cutting support plate 99 moves up and down in conjunction with each other to move the rotary shafts 96a and 96a up and down. The cutting position of the foliage cutting blades 98, 98 is changed in the vertical direction by being pushed and pulled by the rotary shafts 96a, 96a to expand and contract the leaf cutting extension output shafts 97, 97.

なお、茎葉部切断刃98,98の切断位置は、第2調節孔部79cの上下方向に亘って第2切断位置調節レバー101を引掛ける溝部79d…を複数形成することにより、作業者は任意の茎葉部の切断高さを設定することが可能となる。これにより、搬送調製装置104が構成される。   The cutting position of the foliage cutting blades 98, 98 can be arbitrarily determined by forming a plurality of groove portions 79d for hooking the second cutting position adjusting lever 101 over the vertical direction of the second adjusting hole 79c. It becomes possible to set the cutting height of the foliage. Thereby, the conveyance preparation apparatus 104 is comprised.

なお、前記根部切断刃87,87の下方は、作業部フレーム20に空間部を形成し、切断された玉葱の根部が左側のクローラ6Lの上部に落下する構成とする。該クローラ6L上に落下した根部は、クローラ6Lの作動に伴い前方に搬送され、クローラ6Lの前端部から圃場に落下すると、クローラ6Lに踏み潰されて土中にすき込まれる。   In addition, the space | interval part is formed in the working part frame 20 below the said root part cutting blades 87 and 87, and it is set as the structure by which the root part of the cut onion falls on the upper part of the left crawler 6L. The root that has fallen on the crawler 6L is conveyed forward with the operation of the crawler 6L, and when it falls to the field from the front end of the crawler 6L, it is crushed by the crawler 6L and swept into the soil.

そして、前記前後の葉切り搬送ベルト94,94及び前後の茎葉部切断刃98,98の下方に、切断されて落下する茎葉部を機体後方に排出する茎葉排出シュータ105を機体後側に向けて後下がり傾斜姿勢で配置する。該茎葉排出シュータ105は、後側の搬送調製フレーム79から出口部分を突出させる。当然のことながら、その際搬送調製フレーム79にはシュータ出口孔105aを形成する。   Then, below the front and rear leaf cutting conveyor belts 94 and 94 and the front and rear foliage cutting blades 98 and 98, a foliage discharge shooter 105 that discharges the cut foliage cut and dropped to the rear of the machine is directed toward the rear of the machine. Arranged in a tilted posture. The foliage discharge shooter 105 projects the exit portion from the rear conveyance preparation frame 79.

さらに、前記前後の搬送調整フレーム79,79の機体左右他側端部で且つ搬送調製装置104の搬送終端部に、搬送調製装置104の搬送終端部から排出される玉葱を、収容部Gに載置するコンテナ等の収容容器106に排出する作物排出シュータ107を下り傾斜姿勢で配置する。該作物排出シュータ107は、前記前後の搬送調整フレーム79,79に固定する固定シュータ107aと、該固定シュータ107aから玉葱を受けて排出する下り傾斜姿勢と玉葱の移動を規制する上り傾斜姿勢とに上下回動させて切替可能な回動シュータ107bで構成する。   Further, onions at the left and right other ends of the front and rear conveyance adjustment frames 79 and 79 and on the conveyance termination portion of the conveyance preparation device 104 are placed on the accommodation portion G with onions discharged from the conveyance termination portion of the conveyance preparation device 104. A crop discharge shooter 107 that discharges to a storage container 106 such as a container to be placed is disposed in a downward inclined posture. The crop discharge shooter 107 includes a fixed shooter 107a that is fixed to the front and rear conveyance adjustment frames 79, 79, a downwardly inclined posture that receives and discharges the onion from the fixed shooter 107a, and an upwardly inclined posture that restricts the movement of the onion. The rotating shooter 107b can be switched by rotating up and down.

そして、前記作業部フレーム20の後部側で、前記作物搬送コンベア75の搬送終端部の近傍で、且つ前記搬送調製装置104の搬送始端側に、前記貯留ホッパ77に貯留されている玉葱の選別作業や搬送調製装置104への移動作業を行う補助作業者が着座する補助作業用座席108を設けることにより、搬送調製部Fが構成される。   Then, on the rear side of the working unit frame 20, in the vicinity of the transfer terminal end of the crop transfer conveyor 75 and on the transfer start end side of the transfer preparation device 104, the selection operation of the onion stored in the storage hopper 77 In addition, the conveyance preparation unit F is configured by providing the auxiliary work seat 108 on which the auxiliary worker who performs the movement work to the conveyance preparation device 104 is seated.

上記構成により、搬送調製装置104を収穫部Cと収容部Gの左右間に配置することにより、引抜搬送装置24の下方に搬送調製装置104の配置スペースを確保する必要が無く、機体の前後方向及び上下方向の大型化を防止できるので、コンパクトな機体構成となり、圃場端で旋回走行しやすく操作性が向上すると共に、面積の狭い圃場でも機体の移動が制限されにくく、作業能率が向上する。   With the above configuration, by arranging the transport preparation device 104 between the left and right of the harvesting unit C and the storage unit G, it is not necessary to secure the placement space of the transport preparation device 104 below the pulling transport device 24, and the longitudinal direction of the machine body In addition, since it is possible to prevent an increase in size in the vertical direction, it becomes a compact machine structure, and it is easy to turn at the end of the field, improving operability, and it is difficult to restrict the movement of the machine even in a field with a small area, thereby improving work efficiency.

また、搬送調製装置104で玉葱を機体左右一側から左右他側に搬送することができるので、他の搬送装置を別途設ける必要がなく、構成が簡潔になると共に、部品点数が削減される。   In addition, since the onion can be transported from the left and right sides of the machine body to the left and right sides by the transport preparation device 104, it is not necessary to separately provide another transport device, and the configuration is simplified and the number of parts is reduced.

補助作業者が根部案内バー102,102に玉葱をセットすると、玉葱の収容部Gへの搬送と同時に根部と茎葉部の除去作業を行うことができるので、手作業による根部や茎葉部の除去作業が不要になり、作業能率が向上すると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。   When the auxiliary worker sets the onion on the root guide bars 102, 102, the root part and the foliage part can be removed simultaneously with the transport of the onion to the accommodating part G. Therefore, the root part and foliage part are removed manually. Is eliminated, the work efficiency is improved, and the labor of the worker is reduced.

また、第1切断位置調節レバー90を操作して根部切断刃87,87の切断位置を上下方向に変更させる構成としたことにより、玉葱の根部の長さや玉葱のサイズに合わせて適切な位置で根部を除去することができるので、残った根部を手作業で除去する必要が無く、作業能率が向上すると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。   In addition, by operating the first cutting position adjusting lever 90 to change the cutting position of the root cutting blades 87, 87 in the vertical direction, at an appropriate position according to the length of the root of the onion and the size of the onion. Since the root portion can be removed, it is not necessary to manually remove the remaining root portion, so that the work efficiency is improved and the labor of the operator is reduced.

さらに、根部切断刃87,87が根部だけでなく玉葱の収穫対象部まで切断することを防止できるので、玉葱の商品価値が損なわれることが防止される。   Furthermore, the root cutting blades 87, 87 can be prevented from cutting not only the root portion but also the onion harvest target portion, so that the commercial value of the onion is prevented from being impaired.

そして、第2切断位置調節レバー101を操作して茎葉部切断刃98,98の切断位置を上下方向に変更させる構成としたことにより、玉葱の茎葉部の長さや玉葱のサイズに合わせて適切な位置で根部を除去することができるので、残った茎葉部を手作業で除去する必要が無く、作業能率が向上すると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。   Then, by operating the second cutting position adjusting lever 101 to change the cutting position of the foliage cutting blades 98, 98 in the vertical direction, it is appropriate for the length of the foliage of the onion and the size of the onion. Since the root portion can be removed at the position, it is not necessary to manually remove the remaining foliage portion, the work efficiency is improved, and the labor of the operator is reduced.

さらに、茎葉部切断刃98,98が茎葉部だけでなく玉葱の収穫対象部まで切断することを防止できるので、玉葱の商品価値が損なわれることが防止される。   Furthermore, since the foliage cutting blades 98, 98 can be prevented from cutting not only the foliage but also the onion harvest target, it is possible to prevent the commercial value of the onion from being impaired.

また、玉葱の乾燥作業等、後工程で茎葉部を玉葱の吊り下げのために残しておく必要があるときには、茎葉部を残す、あるいは茎葉部を切断しないことを選択できるので、様々な作業条件に対応した作業が可能となる。   In addition, when it is necessary to leave the foliage for hanging the onion in a later process, such as drying the onion, you can choose to leave the foliage or not cut the foliage. The work corresponding to can be performed.

根部切断刃87,87と茎葉部切断刃98,98の上下位置調節は、根切り平行リンクアーム89,89及び葉切り平行リンクアーム100,100で行うことにより、上下位置を変更する際に根部切断刃87,87及び茎葉部切断刃98,98の切断作用位置が前方や後方に移動することを防止できるので、決まった位置で茎葉部及び根部の除去が行われる。   The vertical position adjustment of the root cutting blades 87 and 87 and the foliage cutting blades 98 and 98 is performed by the root cutting parallel link arms 89 and 89 and the leaf cutting parallel link arms 100 and 100, so that the root portion is changed when the vertical position is changed. Since the cutting action positions of the cutting blades 87 and 87 and the foliage cutting blades 98 and 98 can be prevented from moving forward or backward, the foliage and roots are removed at fixed positions.

また、根部や茎葉部の切断位置が変わることが無く、根部や茎葉部を決まった位置から機外に排出することができるので、機体上に残る茎葉部や根部の除去作業が不要となり、掃除に要する時間と労力が軽減される。   In addition, the cutting position of the root part and foliage part does not change, and the root part and foliage part can be discharged from the fixed position to the outside of the machine, eliminating the need to remove the foliage part and root part remaining on the fuselage, and cleaning The time and labor required for this are reduced.

根部切断刃87,87の下方の作業部フレーム20に落下空間を形成し、切断された根部が左側のクローラ6L上に落下する構成としたことにより、根部を前方に運んで圃場に落下させ、このクローラ6Lで踏み潰して圃場にすき込むことができるので、根部を手作業で捨てに行く作業が不要となり、作業者の労力が軽減される。   By forming a fall space in the working part frame 20 below the root cutting blades 87, 87 and having the cut root fall on the left crawler 6L, the root is carried forward and dropped to the field, Since the crawler 6L can be stepped on and squeezed into the field, it is not necessary to manually dispose of the root portion, thereby reducing the labor of the operator.

また、右側のクローラ6に踏み潰されながら圃場にすき込まれた根部は、自然分解されて圃場に養分として還元されるので、圃場の栄養分が豊富になり、次の作物栽培が効率よく行えると共に、肥料の使用量が抑えられるため、肥料コストや環境負荷が低減される。   In addition, since the root portion that has been pushed into the field while being crushed by the crawler 6 on the right side is naturally decomposed and returned to the field as nutrients, the nutrients in the field become abundant and the next crop can be efficiently cultivated. Since the amount of fertilizer used is suppressed, the fertilizer cost and environmental load are reduced.

茎葉部切断刃98,98の下方に、茎葉排出シュータ105を機体後側に向けて後下がり傾斜姿勢で配置したことにより、切断された茎葉部を機体後方に落下させて排出することができるので、茎葉部を手作業で捨てに行く作業が不要となり、作業者の労力が軽減される。   Since the foliage discharge shooter 105 is disposed in a downwardly inclined posture toward the rear side of the machine body below the foliage cutting blades 98, 98, the cut foliage part can be dropped and discharged to the rear of the machine body. This eliminates the need to manually dispose of the foliage, thereby reducing the labor of the operator.

また、排出された茎葉部は、自然分解されて圃場に養分として還元されるので、圃場の栄養分が豊富になり、次の作物栽培が効率よく行えると共に、肥料の使用量が抑えられるため、肥料コストや環境負荷が低減される。   In addition, since the discharged foliage is naturally decomposed and reduced to the field as nutrients, the nutrients in the field become abundant, so that the next crop can be cultivated efficiently and the amount of fertilizer used can be reduced. Cost and environmental load are reduced.

さらに、固定シュータ107aに回動シュータ107bを上下方向に回動自在に取り付けて、作物排出シュータ107を構成したことにより、回動シュータ107bを下方回動させると収容容器106に玉葱を排出することができる。一方、収容容器106の交換作業を行うときなど、搬送調製装置104から玉葱が排出されると不都合であるときは、回動シュータ107bを上方回動させると固定シュータ107aに玉葱を滞留させることができるので、収容容器106の交換作業が容易に行え、作業者の労力が軽減される。   In addition, the crop shooter 107b is attached to the fixed shooter 107a so as to be pivotable in the vertical direction, so that the crop discharge shooter 107 is configured. As a result, the onion is discharged into the storage container 106 when the turn shooter 107b is rotated downward. Can do. On the other hand, when it is inconvenient if the onion is discharged from the transport preparation device 104, such as when the container 106 is exchanged, the onion can be retained in the fixed shooter 107a by rotating the turning shooter 107b upward. Therefore, the replacement operation of the container 106 can be easily performed, and the labor of the operator is reduced.

また、収容容器106の交換作業中に玉葱が落下し、落下の衝撃で傷付くことが防止されるので、落下した玉葱を拾う作業が不要となり作業能率が向上すると共に、玉葱の商品価値が損なわれることが防止される。   Further, since the onion is prevented from falling and being damaged by the impact of the drop during the replacement operation of the storage container 106, the work of picking up the dropped onion is unnecessary, the work efficiency is improved, and the commercial value of the onion is impaired. Is prevented.

なお、図15及び図16で示す通り、前記作物排出シュータ107を構成する固定シュータ107aに搬送調製入切スイッチ110を設け、回動シュータ107bを上方回動させて玉葱を固定シュータ107aに滞留させる形態とすると該搬送調製入切スイッチ110がオフになり、前後の根切り駆動モータ84,84と前後の葉切り駆動モータ95,95を停止させる構成とすると、作業能率が向上する。   As shown in FIG. 15 and FIG. 16, a transfer preparation on / off switch 110 is provided in the fixed shooter 107a constituting the crop discharge shooter 107, and the rotating shooter 107b is rotated upward to retain the onion in the fixed shooter 107a. If it is set as a form, when this conveyance preparation on / off switch 110 is turned off and the front and rear root cutting drive motors 84 and 84 and the front and rear leaf cutting drive motors 95 and 95 are stopped, the work efficiency is improved.

あるいは、前記前後の根切り駆動モータ84,84と前後の葉切り駆動モータ95,95を各々停止させる、あるいは一括して停止させる搬送調製操作装置109を、補助作業用座席108の側方に設け、収容容器106の交換作業時等、作業者が搬送調製装置104を停止させたいときにすぐに停止させる構成としてもよい。   Alternatively, the transport preparation operation device 109 for stopping the front and rear root cutting drive motors 84 and 84 and the front and rear leaf cutting drive motors 95 and 95 or stopping them at the same time is provided on the side of the auxiliary work seat 108. Alternatively, when the operator wants to stop the transport preparation device 104, such as when the container 106 is exchanged, it may be stopped immediately.

次に、収容部Gの構成について説明する。
図2及び図15、図16で示すとおり、前記作業部フレーム20の機体左右他側端部に、複数の収容容器106…を積載する収容容器載置台111を上下回動自在に取り付け、該収容容器載置台111の後端部に、空の回収容器106を積載する延長載置台112を設ける。該延長載置台112は、機体前方に回動させると収容容器載置台111上に折り畳まれる構成とすると共に、機体後方に回動させると機体後側に若干上方傾斜する姿勢で停止する構成とする。
Next, the structure of the accommodating part G is demonstrated.
As shown in FIGS. 2, 15, and 16, a storage container mounting base 111 for loading a plurality of storage containers 106 is attached to the left and right other ends of the working unit frame 20 so as to be rotatable up and down. An extension mounting table 112 on which an empty collection container 106 is loaded is provided at the rear end of the container mounting table 111. The extended mounting table 112 is configured to be folded on the storage container mounting table 111 when rotated to the front of the machine body, and is configured to stop in a posture that slightly tilts upward to the rear side of the machine body when rotated to the rear of the machine body. .

なお、前記収容容器載置台111の最後部が、前記作物排出シュータ107の下方に位置し、この部分で収容容器106は排出される玉葱を回収する。この部分を、収容作業部113とする。
そして、該収容作業部113の前部に、一本の従動回転自在な回転軸114に装着した左右一対の搬送従動ダブルプーリ115,115を設け、前記収容容器載置台111の前端部に一本の回転自在な駆動回転軸116に装着した左右一対の搬送駆動ダブルプーリ117,117を設ける。さらに、該左右の搬送従動ダブルプーリ115,115と搬送駆動ダブルプーリ117,117に亘り、収容容器106を機体前側に向かって搬送する二本一組の左右搬送ベルト118,118、118,118をそれぞれ巻回する。
In addition, the last part of the said storage container mounting base 111 is located under the said crop discharge | emission shooter 107, and the storage container 106 collect | recovers the onion discharged | emitted in this part. This portion is referred to as an accommodation operation unit 113.
Then, a pair of left and right transport driven double pulleys 115 and 115 attached to a single rotatable rotating shaft 114 are provided at the front of the storage work unit 113, and one is provided at the front end of the storage container mounting table 111. A pair of left and right transport drive double pulleys 117 and 117 mounted on a rotatable drive rotating shaft 116 are provided. Further, a pair of left and right conveying belts 118, 118, 118, 118 for conveying the container 106 toward the front side of the machine across the left and right conveying driven double pulleys 115, 115 and the conveying driving double pulleys 117, 117 are provided. Wind each one.

また、該左右の搬送ベルト118,118、118,118の左右間に、収容容器106の搬送を補助する複数の補助搬送ローラ119,119…を、前後方向に亘って回転自在に設ける。
そして、前記駆動回転軸116の左右方向中央部に搬送駆動モータ120を設けることにより、回収容器コンベア121が構成される。
Further, a plurality of auxiliary conveying rollers 119, 119... For assisting the conveyance of the storage container 106 are provided between the left and right of the left and right conveying belts 118, 118, 118, 118 so as to be rotatable in the front-rear direction.
And the collection container conveyor 121 is comprised by providing the conveyance drive motor 120 in the left-right direction center part of the said drive rotating shaft 116. FIG.

なお、補助搬送ローラ119,119…には、ワンウェイクラッチ(図示省略)を設け、機体前側に収容容器106を移動させるときのみ回転し、機体後側には回転しない構成とすると、機体が後下がり傾斜したときに収容容器106が機体後側に移動することが防止され、玉葱を回収中の収容容器106の位置がずれて玉葱が落下することが防止される。
これにより、玉葱を拾う作業が不要となり、作業能率が向上すると共に、落下の際に玉葱が傷つくことが防止され、玉葱の商品価値が維持される。
The auxiliary transport rollers 119, 119,... Are provided with a one-way clutch (not shown) that rotates only when the container 106 is moved to the front side of the machine body and does not rotate to the rear side of the machine body. The storage container 106 is prevented from moving to the rear side of the machine body when tilted, and the position of the storage container 106 collecting the onion is prevented from shifting and the onion is prevented from falling.
This eliminates the need for picking up the onion, improving work efficiency, preventing the onion from being damaged during the fall, and maintaining the commercial value of the onion.

また、前記収容作業部113に、収容作業部113の前後方向に亘って収容容器106がセットされているか否かを検知する回収容器センサ122を設ける。該回収容器センサ122は、接触式でも構わないが、重量物である玉葱を収容した収容容器106が上方に接触したまま前方移動する作業工程があるので、破損防止や誤検知の発生防止の観点から、光センサや超音波センサ等、非接触式とすることが望ましい。   Further, a collection container sensor 122 for detecting whether or not the storage container 106 is set across the front and rear direction of the storage work section 113 is provided in the storage work section 113. The collection container sensor 122 may be of a contact type, but since there is a work process in which the container 106 containing the heavy onion is moved forward while in contact with the upper side, a viewpoint of preventing damage and occurrence of false detection. Therefore, it is desirable to use a non-contact type such as an optical sensor or an ultrasonic sensor.

該回収容器センサ122が、前後方向全域に亘って収容容器106を検知しているときは、収容容器106で玉葱を回収している最中である。また、回収作業が終わり、作業者が作物の収容された収容容器106を収容容器載置台111の前側に向かって移動させ、回収容器センサ122の後部側が非検知状態になると、収容容器106の移動が開始されたと判断し、搬送駆動モータ120を自動的に作動させ、回収容器コンベア121で収容容器106を機体前側に移動させる。   When the collection container sensor 122 detects the storage container 106 across the entire front-rear direction, the storage container 106 is collecting the onion. Further, when the collection operation is completed and the operator moves the storage container 106 storing the crop toward the front side of the storage container mounting table 111 and the rear side of the recovery container sensor 122 is in a non-detection state, the storage container 106 is moved. Is determined to have started, the transport drive motor 120 is automatically operated, and the collection container conveyer 121 moves the container 106 to the front side of the machine body.

そして、収容容器106が機体前側に移動し、回収容器センサ122が前後全域に亘って非検知状態になると、次の収容容器106を収容作業部113にセット可能になったと判断し、搬送駆動モータ120を自動的に停止させ、回収容器コンベア121を停止させる。   When the storage container 106 moves to the front side of the machine body and the recovery container sensor 122 is in a non-detection state across the entire front and rear, it is determined that the next storage container 106 can be set in the storage work unit 113, and the transport drive motor 120 is automatically stopped and the collection container conveyor 121 is stopped.

このとき、作業者が延長載置台112から空の回収部材106を移動させ、収容作業部113の上方を収容容器106で覆うと、再度回収容器センサ122が前後方向全域に亘って検知状態となる。
空の収容容器106が収容作業部113にセットされないと、前記作物排出シュータ107の回動シュータ107bを下方回動させて搬送調製入切スイッチ110をオンにしても、前後の根切り駆動モータ84,84と前後の葉切り駆動モータ95,95は作動しない構成とする。
これにより、収容部Gが構成される。
At this time, when the worker moves the empty collection member 106 from the extended mounting table 112 and covers the upper part of the storage work unit 113 with the storage container 106, the recovery container sensor 122 is again in the detection state across the entire front-rear direction. .
If the empty storage container 106 is not set in the storage work section 113, the front and rear root cutting drive motors 84 are turned on even if the rotation preparation shooter 107b of the crop discharge shooter 107 is rotated downward and the transfer preparation on / off switch 110 is turned on. , 84 and the front and rear leaf cutting drive motors 95, 95 are configured not to operate.
Thereby, the accommodating part G is comprised.

上記構成のとおり、作物排出シュータ107の下方を収容容器106をセットする収容作業部113としたことにより、玉葱の排出経路を別途形成する必要が無く、シンプルな構成となると共に、部品点数が削減される。
そして、回収容器コンベア121を設けたことにより、玉葱が収容されて重くなった収容容器106を機体前側に自動的に搬送することができるので、作業者が収容容器106を移動させる距離が短縮され、作業者の労力が軽減されると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。
As described above, since the storage work unit 113 for setting the storage container 106 is provided below the crop discharge shooter 107, there is no need to separately form an onion discharge path, and the configuration is simple and the number of parts is reduced. Is done.
Since the collection container conveyor 121 is provided, the storage container 106 that has become heavier with the onion stored therein can be automatically conveyed to the front side of the machine body, so that the distance for the operator to move the storage container 106 is shortened. The labor of the worker is reduced and the labor of the worker is reduced.

また、左右の搬送ベルト118,118、118,118を各々二本一組とし、左右の搬送ベルト118,118、118,118の左右間に複数の補助搬送ローラ119,119…を前後方向亘って配置したことにより、重量物である回数容器106の搬送中に搬送ベルト118,118、118,118が重量で撓んで搬送が停止してしまうことを防止できるので、作業者が収容容器106を移動させる必要が無く、作業能率が向上する。   Further, a pair of left and right transport belts 118, 118, 118, 118 is formed as a set, and a plurality of auxiliary transport rollers 119, 119... Are provided between the left and right transport belts 118, 118, 118, 118 in the front-rear direction. This arrangement prevents the conveyor belts 118, 118, 118, 118 from being bent due to weight during transportation of the heavy-duty container 106, thereby stopping the transportation, so that the operator can move the container 106. There is no need to make it work and work efficiency is improved.

さらに、収容容器載置台111を回動させて作業部フレーム20側に移動させることにより、非作業時には収容部Gの幅分だけ機体の左右幅を短くすることができるので、玉葱収穫機をトラックの荷台に積み込む作業や倉庫に格納する際に必要なスペースが抑えられる。   Further, by rotating the storage container mounting table 111 and moving it to the working unit frame 20 side, the left and right widths of the machine body can be shortened by the width of the storage unit G when not working. The space required for loading in the loading platform and storing in the warehouse can be reduced.

そして、収容容器載置台111の後端部に、空の収容容器106を積載する延長載置部112を設けたことにより、空の収容容器106を前に移動させるだけで収容作業部113にセットすることができるので、作業能率が向上する。   Then, by providing the extended mounting portion 112 for loading the empty storage container 106 at the rear end of the storage container mounting table 111, the empty storage container 106 can be set in the storage operation unit 113 simply by moving it forward. Work efficiency is improved.

上記に加えて、延長載置部112が機体後側に突出することが防止され、非作業時の玉葱収穫機の前後幅が抑えられ、玉葱収穫機をトラックの荷台に積み込む作業や倉庫に格納する際に必要なスペースがいっそう抑えられる。   In addition to the above, the extension mounting part 112 is prevented from protruding to the rear side of the machine, the front and rear width of the onion harvesting machine when not working is suppressed, and the onion harvesting machine is loaded into the truck bed and stored in the warehouse The space required for doing so is further reduced.

また、延長載置部112を機体後方に回動させる際、収容容器載置台111の底面から若干後上がり傾斜姿勢となる位置で停止する構成とすると、延長載置部112から機体前側に滑り降りようとする空の収容容器106の前部は、収容作業部113で玉葱を回収中の収容容器106の後部に押さえられた状態になるので、収容作業部113から収容容器106を機体前側に移動させると自動的に空の収容容器106が収容作業部113に移動してくる構成となり、空の収容容器106を収容作業部113にセットする作業が容易になり、作業能率が向上する。   Further, when the extension mounting portion 112 is rotated backward from the machine body, if it is configured to stop at a position where it is slightly raised and inclined from the bottom surface of the storage container mounting table 111, it will slide down from the extension mounting portion 112 to the front side of the machine body. Since the front part of the empty storage container 106 is pressed by the rear part of the storage container 106 that is collecting the onion by the storage work part 113, the storage container 106 is moved from the storage work part 113 to the front side of the machine body. Thus, the empty storage container 106 is automatically moved to the storage operation unit 113, and the operation of setting the empty storage container 106 in the storage operation unit 113 is facilitated, and the work efficiency is improved.

さらに、収容作業部113に収容容器106の有無を検知する回収容器センサ122を設け、この回収容器センサ122の後部側が非検知状態になると搬送駆動モータ120が自動的に作動すると共に、回収容器センサ122が全域に亘って収容容器106を検知しなくなると搬送駆動モータ120が自動的に停止する構成としたことにより、回収容器コンベア121を常時駆動させる必要が無く、電力や燃料の消費が抑えられ、省エネ効果が向上する。   Further, a collection container sensor 122 that detects the presence or absence of the storage container 106 is provided in the storage work unit 113, and when the rear side of the recovery container sensor 122 is in a non-detection state, the transport drive motor 120 automatically operates and Since the conveyance drive motor 120 automatically stops when the storage container 106 no longer detects the container 106 over the entire area, it is not necessary to drive the collection container conveyor 121 at all times, and power consumption and fuel consumption can be suppressed. , Energy saving effect is improved.

そして、回収容器センサ122が全域に亘って収容容器106を検知しないと、回動シュータ107bを下方回動させて搬送調製入切スイッチ110をオフにしても根切り駆動モータ84,84と前後の葉切り駆動モータ95,95は作動しない構成としたことにより、収容容器106が収容作業部113にセットされていない状態で搬送調製装置104から玉葱が排出されることを防止できるので、落下した玉葱を回収する作業が不要となり作業能率が向上すると共に、落下の際に玉葱が傷つくことが防止され、玉葱の商品価値が維持される。   If the collection container sensor 122 does not detect the storage container 106 over the entire area, the root cutting drive motors 84 and 84 and the front and rear driving motors 84 and 84 are moved forward and backward even if the rotation shooter 107b is rotated downward and the conveyance preparation on / off switch 110 is turned off. Since the leaf cutting drive motors 95 and 95 are configured not to operate, it is possible to prevent the onion from being discharged from the transport preparation device 104 in a state where the storage container 106 is not set in the storage work unit 113. This eliminates the need for the work of collecting the balls, improves the work efficiency, prevents the onion from being damaged when dropped, and maintains the commercial value of the onion.

以下、本件玉葱収穫機の別実施例を説明する。
図17、図18で示すとおり、前記機体内側(左右他側)の従動プーリ16の回転軸の上端部に入力プーリ171を装着すると共に、該入力プーリ171の上部に掻き込みカバー172を斜め前方に突出させて設ける。そして、該掻き込みカバー172の前端部に入力プーリ171よりも径の小さな出力プーリ173を回転自在に装着し、該出力プーリ173と入力プーリ171に掻き込みベルト174を巻回することにより、補助掻込装置176が構成される。
該掻き込みベルト174には所定間隔毎にゴム等の弾性体で構成する掻き込みラグ174a…を設け、複数の掻き込みラグ174a…で地表付近に垂れている茎葉部を引抜搬送装置24の搬送始端部に案内する。
Hereinafter, another embodiment of the present onion harvester will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, an input pulley 171 is attached to the upper end portion of the rotating shaft of the driven pulley 16 on the inner side (the other side on the left and right sides) of the machine body, and a scraping cover 172 is placed obliquely forward on the upper portion of the input pulley 171. It is made to project. Then, an output pulley 173 having a diameter smaller than that of the input pulley 171 is rotatably mounted on the front end portion of the scraping cover 172, and the scraping belt 174 is wound around the output pulley 173 and the input pulley 171 to assist A scraping device 176 is configured.
The scraping belt 174 is provided with a scraping lug 174a made of an elastic body such as rubber at a predetermined interval, and a plurality of the scraping lugs 174a. Guide to the beginning.

なお、前記入力プーリ171には貫通孔を形成し、この貫通孔を通じて駆動ピン175を挿し込み、該駆動ピン175が機体内側の従動プーリ16に接触すると、従動プーリ16の回転に連動して入力プーリ171が回転する構成とする。前記駆動ピン175を入力プーリ171から外す、もしくは従動プーリ16に接触しない位置に移動させると、従動プーリ16は回転するが、入力プーリ171は回転しない。   A through hole is formed in the input pulley 171, and a drive pin 175 is inserted through the through hole. When the drive pin 175 contacts the driven pulley 16 on the inner side of the machine body, the input is interlocked with the rotation of the driven pulley 16. The pulley 171 is configured to rotate. When the drive pin 175 is removed from the input pulley 171 or moved to a position where it does not contact the driven pulley 16, the driven pulley 16 rotates, but the input pulley 171 does not rotate.

前記駆動ピン175は、スプリング等を噛み込ませて一度押し込むと入力プーリ171が連動回転し、再度押し込むと入力プーリ171が回転しない状態となる構成、あるいは貫通孔に雌螺子溝を形成すると共に駆動ピン175の表面に雄螺子溝を形成し、締め込むと入力プーリ171が連動回転し、緩めると回転しなくなる構成とすると、駆動ピン175を入力プーリ171から完全に取り外すことなく連動回転を解除することができるので、駆動ピン175を無くすことが防止される。   The drive pin 175 has a structure in which the input pulley 171 rotates in conjunction with a spring or the like once pushed in, and the input pulley 171 does not rotate when pushed in again, or a female screw groove is formed in the through hole and driven. When a male screw groove is formed on the surface of the pin 175 and the input pulley 171 rotates interlocked when tightened and stops rotating when loosened, the interlocking rotation is released without completely removing the drive pin 175 from the input pulley 171. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the drive pin 175 from being lost.

そして、前記機体内側の従動プーリ16の回転軸の下端部には、前記分草ロッド157を機体前側に突出させて配置する。該分草ロッド157は、取付基部にボルト等の固定部材177を挿し込み可能な穴部を形成し、この穴部に固定部材177を挿し込むと固定状態となり、固定部材177を外すと左右方向に回動して分草角度を調節可能な構成とする。   Then, the weed rod 157 is disposed at the lower end of the rotating shaft of the driven pulley 16 inside the machine body so as to protrude to the front side of the machine body. The weed rod 157 is formed with a hole into which a fixing member 177 such as a bolt can be inserted into the mounting base, and when the fixing member 177 is inserted into the hole, the fixing rod 157 is in a fixed state. It is set as the structure which can be rotated and can adjust a weeding angle.

なお、入力プーリ171を従動プーリ16と連動回転する状態であるとき、該固定部材177を外して分草ロッド157を回動させると、入力プーリ171が連動回転して補助掻込装置176が回動する構成としてもよい。この構成により、非作業時には補助掻込装置176を引抜搬送装置24の下部で且つ左右幅内に収納することができるので、収納場所に補助掻込装置176が接触し続けて歪むことが防止されるため、掻き込み性能が維持される。   When the input pulley 171 is rotated in conjunction with the driven pulley 16 and the fixing member 177 is removed and the weed rod 157 is rotated, the input pulley 171 rotates in conjunction with the auxiliary scraper 176. It is good also as a structure which moves. With this configuration, the auxiliary scraping device 176 can be stored in the lower part of the pulling / conveying device 24 and within the left and right widths when not in operation, and therefore, the auxiliary scraping device 176 is prevented from continuously contacting and distorting the storage location. Therefore, the scraping performance is maintained.

さらに、前記出力プーリ173の回転軸の下端部に、複数の突起爪または円盤を中心に外周部に複数の突起を設けた掻き込みディスク178を設け、該掻き込みディスク178の下側の面、即ち圃場に近接する側を球面状に形成する。この球面部または掻き込みディスク178全体は、摩擦力がかかっても傷付きにくい特性を有する合成樹脂で構成すると、耐久性が向上するので効果が長持ちする。   Furthermore, a scraping disk 178 provided with a plurality of protrusions on the outer periphery around a plurality of protruding claws or a disc is provided at the lower end of the rotation shaft of the output pulley 173, and the lower surface of the scraping disk 178, That is, the side close to the farm is formed in a spherical shape. If the spherical surface or the entire scraping disk 178 is made of a synthetic resin having a characteristic that it is difficult to be damaged even when a frictional force is applied, the durability is improved and the effect is prolonged.

上記の構成により、縦引起し装置25と横引起し装置26に引き起こされず地表に垂れ下がっている茎葉部を補助掻込装置176で掻き込み、引抜搬送装置24に案内することができるので、より多くの茎葉部を挟持して玉葱を引き抜くことができるので、抜き残される玉葱が減少し、作業能率が向上する。   With the above configuration, the stems and leaves that are not caused by the vertical pulling device 25 and the horizontal pulling device 26 but are suspended on the ground surface can be scraped by the auxiliary scraping device 176 and guided to the pulling and conveying device 24. Since the onion can be pulled out while sandwiching the stem and leaf portion of the potato, the amount of onion left behind is reduced and the work efficiency is improved.

また、補助掻込装置176を、先に玉葱を収穫し終えた既掘り側が位置する、機体内側の従動プーリ16に設けたことにより、現在引抜収穫作業を行っている玉葱の茎葉部のみを掻き込むことができるので、収穫されていない玉葱の茎葉部を巻き込んで圃場から引き抜き、次の作業時に引抜搬送装置24で玉葱が引き抜けず、抜き残し玉葱が発生することが防止される。
そして、補助掻込装置176の駆動力を引抜搬送装置24の従動プーリ16から得ることにより、別の伝動経路を形成する必要が無く、機体構成が簡潔になり、部品点数が削減される。
In addition, the auxiliary scraping device 176 is provided on the driven pulley 16 on the inner side of the fuselage where the already dug side where the onion has already been harvested is located, so that only the stem and leaf portion of the onion currently being drawn and harvested is scraped. Therefore, the stems and leaves of the uncollected onion are drawn out from the field, and the onion is prevented from being pulled out by the drawing / conveying device 24 during the next operation, thereby preventing the onion from being left behind.
Then, by obtaining the driving force of the auxiliary scratching device 176 from the driven pulley 16 of the pulling and conveying device 24, there is no need to form another transmission path, the machine structure is simplified, and the number of parts is reduced.

さらに、駆動ピン175の着脱によって入力プーリ171が従動プーリ16と連動回転するか否かを切り替えることができるので、夏場等玉葱の茎葉部が繁茂している時など、未掘り側の玉葱の茎葉部を巻き込みかねない作業条件では補助掻込装置176を使用しないこともできるので、対応可能な作業条件が増え、作業能率が向上する。   Furthermore, since it is possible to switch whether the input pulley 171 rotates in conjunction with the driven pulley 16 by attaching and detaching the drive pin 175, such as when the onion stalks are growing in summer, etc. Since the auxiliary stirrer 176 may not be used under working conditions that may involve a part, the working conditions that can be handled increase and the working efficiency improves.

また、従動プーリ16の下部に掻き込みディスク178を設けたことにより、地表面に伏せている茎葉部も掻き上げることができるので、茎葉部の引き抜きがいっそう確実になり、抜き残し玉葱を行う必要が無くなり、作業能率が向上する。
そして、この掻き込みディスク178の下面を球面状に形成したことにより、掻き込みディスク178は圃場面に沿って滑走する構成となるため、引抜搬送装置24の引抜作業高さが変更されることがなく、引抜作業の精度が向上する。
Further, by providing the scraping disk 178 at the lower part of the driven pulley 16, it is possible to lift up the foliage portion that is hiding on the ground surface, so that the foliage portion is more reliably pulled out, and it is necessary to carry out the remaining onion. And work efficiency is improved.
Since the lower surface of the scraping disc 178 is formed into a spherical shape, the scraping disc 178 is configured to slide along the field scene, so that the extraction work height of the extraction conveying device 24 may be changed. In addition, the accuracy of the drawing work is improved.

さらに、分草ロッド157を回動させると掻き込みカバー172を連動して回動可能に構成したことにより、補助掻込装置176の作業角度を変更することができるので、茎葉部の状態に合わせて角度を調節して掻き込み作業を行えるため、茎葉部の掻き込み作業能率が向上する。   In addition, when the weed rod 157 is rotated, the working angle of the auxiliary scoring device 176 can be changed by configuring the scraping cover 172 so that it can rotate in conjunction with it. Since the angle can be adjusted and the scraping work can be performed, the efficiency of the scraping work on the foliage is improved.

図19で示すとおり、左右の条数調節フレーム151,151を鉤型とし、該条数調節フレーム151の前部側で且つ内側部に前側ロック部181を形成すると共に、条数調節フレーム151の後部側に後側ロック部182を形成する。そして、該前側ロック部181から後側ロック部182の前後長さと略同じ前後長さの挟持スライドフレーム183を左右の引抜フレーム15,15に前後方向にスライド自在に設け、該左右の挟持スライドフレーム183,183に、引抜搬送ベルト18,18を押圧する押圧テンションローラ184…を複数、回転自在に配置する。さらに、左右の挟持スライドフレーム183,183には、後方にスライドさせた際に後側ロック部182,182に引っ掛かる、ストッパ溝183aを切り欠いている。   As shown in FIG. 19, the left and right strip number adjustment frames 151, 151 are formed into a bowl shape, and a front lock portion 181 is formed on the front side and the inner side of the strip number adjustment frame 151. A rear lock portion 182 is formed on the rear side. Then, a holding slide frame 183 having a length substantially the same as the length of the front lock portion 181 to the front lock portion 182 is provided on the left and right pull-out frames 15 and 15 so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction. A plurality of pressing tension rollers 184 that press the pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 are rotatably disposed on 183 and 183. Further, the left and right sandwiching slide frames 183 and 183 are notched with stopper grooves 183a that are caught by the rear lock portions 182 and 182 when being slid rearward.

また、該左右の挟持スライドフレーム183,183の後部には作業者が挟持スライドフレーム183,183を前後スライドさせる操作グリップ185をそれぞれ設けると共に、挟持スライドフレーム183,183の後端部と引抜フレーム15,15に設ける固定板186,186との間に、挟持スライドフレーム183,183を機体後側に引っ張る引張スプリング187をそれぞれ配置して、条数変更機構188,188を構成する。   Further, operation grips 185 for allowing the operator to slide the holding slide frames 183 and 183 back and forth are provided at the rear portions of the left and right holding slide frames 183 and 183, respectively, and the rear end portions of the holding slide frames 183 and 183 and the pull-out frame 15 are provided. , 15 are provided with tension springs 187 for pulling the holding slide frames 183, 183 to the rear side of the machine body between the fixing plates 186, 186, respectively, thereby constituting the strip number changing mechanisms 188, 188.

該条数変更機構188は、挟持スライドフレーム183を前側ロック部181から後側ロック部182の間に位置させてロックした状態とすると、条数調節フレーム151が引抜搬送経路Rに対して略平行姿勢となると共に、複数の押圧テンションローラ184…が引抜搬送ベルト18の前端部寄りの位置を押圧するので、左右の引抜搬送ベルト18,18が密接し合い、1条掘り形態となる。   When the sandwiching slide frame 183 is positioned between the front lock portion 181 and the rear lock portion 182 and locked, the strip number changing mechanism 188 is substantially parallel to the drawing conveyance path R. In addition to the posture, the plurality of pressing tension rollers 184... Press the position near the front end of the pulling and conveying belt 18, so that the left and right pulling and conveying belts 18 and 18 are in close contact with each other to form a single digging form.

一方、操作グリップ185を掴み、後側ロック部182を条数調節フレーム151が乗り越えられる力で後側に引っ張ると、左右の条数調節フレーム151,151が搬送始端部側ほど離間すると共に、左右の引抜搬送ベルト18,18が密接し始める位置で複数の押圧テンションローラ184…が左右の引抜搬送ベルト18,18を押圧するので、搬送始端部付近に左右間隔部が形成されて2条分の玉葱の茎葉部が案内可能となり、2条掘り形態となる。   On the other hand, when the operation grip 185 is grasped and the rear lock portion 182 is pulled to the rear side with a force with which the strip number adjusting frame 151 can get over, the left and right strip number adjusting frames 151 and 151 are separated toward the conveyance start end side and left and right Since the plurality of pressing tension rollers 184 press the left and right drawing / conveying belts 18 and 18 at a position where the drawing and conveying belts 18 and 18 start to come into close contact with each other, a left and right interval portion is formed in the vicinity of the conveyance start end portion, and two strips are formed. The stem and leaf part of the onion can be guided and becomes a two-row digging form.

この挟持スライドフレーム183の操作では、作業者は少なくとも後側ロック部182を乗り越えられる力で操作する必要があるが、引張スプリング187が挟持スライドフレーム183を後方に付勢していることにより、比較的軽い力で操作が可能となっている。これにより、作業者の労力が軽減されるが、圃場の凹凸や玉葱の周囲の土を左右の振動ソイラ34,34で掘り起こす際、機体に振動が生じると、挟持スライドフレーム183が後側ロック部182を乗り越え、掘取条数が突然変わるおそれがある。これを防止すべく、条数調節フレーム151,151の回動を規制するロック状態と、条数調節フレーム151,151の回動規制を解除する非ロック状態を切り替える、ロックハンドル189,189を設け、該ロックハンドル189,189を解除操作しないと条数調節フレーム151,151が回動せず、挟持スライドフレーム183,183が後方に移動できない構成とする。   In the operation of the holding slide frame 183, the operator needs to operate with at least a force capable of getting over the rear lock portion 182. However, since the tension spring 187 biases the holding slide frame 183 rearward, It is possible to operate with light power. Thereby, the labor of the operator is reduced. However, when the left and right vibration soliters 34 and 34 dig up the unevenness of the field and the soil around the onion, when the vibration occurs in the airframe, the holding slide frame 183 is moved to the rear lock portion. There is a risk that the number of mines will suddenly change after 182. In order to prevent this, lock handles 189 and 189 are provided to switch between a locked state that restricts the rotation of the number adjustment frames 151 and 151 and an unlocked state that releases the rotation restriction of the number adjustment frames 151 and 151. If the lock handles 189 and 189 are not released, the strip adjustment frames 151 and 151 do not rotate, and the sandwiching slide frames 183 and 183 cannot move backward.

上記の構成により、挟持スライドフレーム183,183を前後移動させて1条掘りと2条掘りを変更することにより、挟持スライドフレーム183,183に設けた押圧テンションローラ184…で引抜搬送ベルト18,18を押圧して掘取条数を変更することができるので、押圧テンションローラ184…の数が削減され、コストダウンが図られる。   With the above-described configuration, the holding slide frames 183 and 183 are moved back and forth to change the single digging and the double digging, so that the pulling conveying belts 18 and 18 are pushed by the pressing tension rollers 184 provided on the holding slide frames 183 and 183. Since the number of digging strips can be changed by pressing the number of pressing tension rollers 184..., The cost can be reduced.

また、挟持スライドフレーム183に後側ロック部182に引っ掛かるストッパ溝183aを形成したことにより、ストッパ溝183aが後側ロック部182に引っ掛かるまで挟持スライドフレーム183を操作すると、2条掘り形態に最適な位置となるので、2条分の茎葉部を引抜搬送装置24で確実に引き抜くことができると共に、茎葉部が引抜搬送始端部に詰まることが防止され、作業能率が向上する。   Further, since the stopper slide 183a that is hooked to the rear lock portion 182 is formed in the sandwich slide frame 183, the sandwich slide frame 183 is operated until the stopper groove 183a is hooked to the rear lock portion 182. Since it becomes the position, the stems and leaves for the two strips can be reliably pulled out by the drawing / conveying device 24, and the stems and leaves are prevented from clogging the drawing / conveying start end, thereby improving the work efficiency.

(好適構成例)
以下、本件玉葱収穫用の農作物収穫機の好適構成例について説明する。なお、以下において、前記同様の部材は、その符号を付すことにより詳細な説明を省略する。
農作物収穫機301は、その側面図および平面図を図20、図21に示すように、引抜搬送装置24と収容部材載置台111との間に、引抜搬送装置24の終端から作物を受ける一時貯留部材302と、この一時貯留部材302から取出された作物を搬送しながら茎葉部と根部を除去落下させる搬送調製装置303とを並べ、この搬送調製装置303を車幅方向の搬送姿勢でその搬送終端から収容部材載置台111を下方に臨んで配置する。また、一時貯留部材302に貯留される作物の選別および搬送調製装置303への作物の移動作業のための作業用座席304を一時貯留部材302の前方または図例の如く後方に設ける。
(Preferred configuration example)
Hereinafter, a preferred configuration example of the crop harvester for onion harvesting will be described. In addition, below, detailed description is abbreviate | omitted by attaching | subjecting the code | symbol of the said same member.
As shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, the crop harvesting machine 301 is temporarily stored between the pulling / conveying device 24 and the receiving member mounting table 111 to receive a crop from the terminal end of the pulling / conveying device 24. A member 302 and a transport preparation device 303 that removes and drops stems and leaves and roots while transporting the crop taken out from the temporary storage member 302 are arranged side by side, and the transport preparation device 303 is transported in the vehicle width direction in its transport posture. The housing member mounting table 111 is arranged facing downward. Further, a work seat 304 for selecting the crop stored in the temporary storage member 302 and moving the crop to the transport preparation device 303 is provided in front of the temporary storage member 302 or rearward as shown in the figure.

一時貯留部材302は、引抜搬送装置24の終端から作物を受けるホッパー状の開口を備え、底板302bには、夾雑物を排出するための落下口302eを車幅方向の一端に形成するとともに、この落下口302eを最下位として作物が転がるように底板302bを傾斜して構成し、落下口302eからの排出物が滞留しないように走行装置6L,6R上に落ちるように配置する。   The temporary storage member 302 is provided with a hopper-like opening for receiving a crop from the end of the pulling and conveying device 24. The bottom plate 302b is formed with a drop port 302e for discharging impurities at one end in the vehicle width direction.
