Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a seedling release guiding device for a grass seedling aligning machine capable of correcting the attitude of grass seedlings discharged from a conveyor belt in a vertical manner.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a pair of cutting blades for cutting the foliage tip and root tip of a grass seedling are provided on both sides of both upper and lower conveyor belts for sandwiching and transporting the grass seedling. As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the flat exit plate 6a is obliquely provided below the outer peripheral side of the terminal end of the lower conveyor belt.

[0003]

However, the seedlings that are aligned and discharged from the lower transport belt are discharged from the lower conveyor belt in a horizontal position on the flat exit plate. In this case, it is necessary to manually pack the grass seedlings to be released from the cassette, and it is difficult and time-consuming to pack the cassettes.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is designed to solve such a problem and to effectively pack the seedlings to be aligned into a cassette. An inclined plate is erected below the outer peripheral side, and the inclined plate has at least two lower guide rods which are inclined low so as to slide down the root of the grass seedling and bends from above so as to erect the foliage of the grass seedling. At least two upper guide rods that are inclined and higher than the lower guide rod and side guide rods for standing guide that are inclined rearward on one side are arranged side by side and mounted. .

[0005]

Therefore, when the grass seedlings are discharged laterally onto the inclined plate from the end of the lower conveyor belt, the roots of the grass seedlings slide down along the lower guide rod, and the foliage of the grass seedlings rises upward. It will be corrected to the posture that it leans down on the guide rod and slides down, while supporting it with one side guide rod, the grass seedling is changed to the vertical state with the root part downward, as it is Released downward.

[0006]

FIG. 4 to FIG. 6 show a conventional grass seedling aligning machine, in which a lower transport belt 3 capable of holding and transporting grass seedlings 1 is provided. A cutting blade 4 composed of a pair of disk blades 4a and 4b capable of cutting the tip of the foliage 1a of the rush seedling 1 is provided on one side of the two belts 2 and 3. At the same time, on the other side, a cutting blade 5 composed of a pair of disk blades 5a and 5b capable of cutting the tip of the root 1b of the grass seedling 1 is supported by a shaft.
So that they can be driven by the motor 8 below,
A seedling supply table 9 is provided in front of the start end of the lower transport belt 3, and in the conventional type, a flat outlet plate 6 a is provided obliquely below the outer peripheral side of the end of the lower transport belt 3. .

FIGS. 1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention.
The exit plate 6a of the rush seedling aligning machine is removed, and an inclined plate 6 is erected below the outer peripheral side of the terminal end portion of the lower conveyor belt 3, which is a part of the outlet plate 6a. And two lower guide rods 7a and 7b, which are inclined low so as to slide down and gradually open between the lower portions, and are bent downward and inclined greatly from above so as to erect the foliage 1a of the grass seedling 1. At the same time, two upper guide rods 7c and 7d, which are higher than the lower guide rods 7a and 7b, and side guide rods 7e which are inclined on one side and are used to guide the seedlings 1 to stand, are mounted side by side. Also, a cassette 11 having a shutter 10 which can be opened and closed at one end is installed below the guide rod group. A spiral rod 12 is detachably mounted in the cassette 11, and the spiral rod 12 is attached at one end. Side handle The 3 or the motor is configured to rotate.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 1, when the seedlings are aligned by the rush seedling aligner and discharged horizontally from the end of the lower conveyor belt 3 onto the inclined plate 6, the rush seedlings 1 are removed. With the root portion 1b sliding down along the lower guide rods 7a, 7b, the foliage 1a of the rush seedling 1 is moved upward by the upper guide rods 7c, 7c.
It will be corrected to a posture of standing up while leaning down on 7d, and during that time, while guiding the seedlings 1 so as not to fall down by one side guide rod 7e,
The grass seedlings 1 are changed in posture to an upright state in which the root 1b is downward, and are released downward as shown by an arrow a.
The seedlings 1 to be released are to be thrown into the cassette 11 in the upright posture. When the spiral rod 12 is rotated by the handle 13, the seedlings 1 to be thrown are moved in one direction toward the arrow B. It can be moved slowly and gently to pack the cassette.

[0009]

[Effect of the Invention] As described above, the present invention provides the lower transport belt 3
When the grass seedlings 1 that are left sideways are discharged onto the inclined plate 6 from the end portions of the grass seedlings 1, the roots 1b of the grass seedlings 1 are moved downward by the lower guide rods 7a and 7a.
In the state of sliding down along the line b, the foliage 1a of the rush seedling 1 leans against the upper guide rods 7c and 7d and is corrected to a vertical posture while sliding down, so that one lateral guide rod 7e. While guiding, the grass seedlings 1 can be effectively changed to the upright state, and can be directly inserted into the cassette below the grass seedlings. As described above, the cassette can be effectively packed without any trouble, and has a feature that it can be suitably implemented with a simple structure.
