Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vegetable harvester for cabbage, Chinese cabbage and the like, which leaves leafy vegetables on the ground. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a vegetable harvesting machine of this kind, a crop is pulled out from a field while being transported upward and backward by sandwiching a lower portion of the vegetable crop from both right and left sides by a pulling and transporting device. In some cases, after extraction, the stem root is cut off and only the head is collected. [0003] In a conventional harvester in which head vegetables such as cabbage are cut out and conveyed in the middle of pulling and transporting, the resistance at the time of extracting vegetables has a large difference depending on field conditions and varieties. This is a major point for maintaining the performance of the machine. An object of the present invention is to eliminate such an unstable element. To achieve this goal, the following technical measures were taken. [0004] That is, the present invention provides:
The vehicle body 1 provided with a running device 2, a conveying device 5 for transporting the upper rear sides of the vegetables from the left and right is provided Rutotomoni, the soil ridges in front and below the <br/> conveying device 5 A vegetable harvesting machine is provided with a cutter 9 for cutting the roots of vegetables that are planted while dive. The vehicle body 1 travels by the traveling device 2 and
A bracket provided in front of and below the transfer device 5 provided on the vehicle body 1
Tar 9 is located below the upper surface of the ridge and descends in the soil.
In the rear, the transport device 5 moves toward the vegetables on the furrow
Then, cutter 9 cuts the roots of vegetables in the soil.
The soil at the top of the ridge is loosened, and then the transport device 5
Sandwich the vegetables from the left and right and transport them upward and backward.
From the furrow. Therefore, according to the present invention, it grows on ridges.
The transporting device 5 sandwiches the upper part of the vegetable ridge from left and right and then upwards
Before transporting and picking vegetables, cutter 9
Dive into the soil, cut the roots in the soil and top the ridges
The transport device 5 picks up vegetables as the soil is loosened
When the resistance is reduced and the simple configuration,
Reliable harvesting of vegetables regardless of conditions
can do. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The vehicle body 1 includes a crawler-type traveling device 2, and a driver's seat 3 and a control unit 4 on one front side of the vehicle body 1. A pull-out transport device 5 is provided from the lower front part to the upper rear part of the vehicle body 1. The pull-out transporting device 5 is for holding the head vegetables from the left and right and pulling the head vegetables from the field while transporting the head upward and rearward, and is provided to be inclined upward and rearward in the front-rear direction. The apparatus 5 includes two opposing conveyor belts 6 and 7. 8 is a container. A pair of left and right rotary cutters 9, 9 for cutting the roots of the vegetables being planted while sunk in the ridged soil are provided in front of and below the transport start end of the pull-out transport device 5. It is provided. The cutters 9, 9 rotate inward each other, and are interlocked so as to be able to rotate at high speed via a transmission mechanism in a transmission case 10 that projects forward from the transport device 5. The configuration shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 will be described.
At the lower front of the pulling and conveying device 5, a digging device 11 for cutting the root of the planted vegetable while sunk in the ridged soil and forcibly digging the soil is provided detachably. The excavating device 11 includes a tapered (conical) spiral body 12, and the transmission case 10 protrudes forward from the transfer device 5.
It is interlocked to be rotatable via the internal transmission mechanism. 13 is a grounding wheel. The configuration shown in FIGS. A pre-harvest processing device 14 is disposed on the left side in the machine traveling direction, a driver's seat 3 and a control section 4 are disposed on the right side, and a lifting conveyor bucket conveyor 15 is disposed at an intermediate portion in the left and right width direction. are doing. A platform 16 is provided between the end of the pretreatment device 14 and the beginning of the bucket conveyor 15 as a communication passage for harvested products. A storage tank 17 is provided in the upper rear portion of the vehicle body. The pre-harvest processing device 14 mainly includes a pair of left and right guide rollers 18 and 18 for introducing and guiding the head vegetables to be planted, a rotary blade 19 for cutting the roots of the head vegetables, and a head head. And a pair of left and right belt conveyors 20 and 20 which convey the sheet by holding the parts. Reference numeral 21 denotes a roller support rod, and reference numeral 22 denotes a guide support, which is fixedly supported by a support frame 23 projecting from the body side. 24 is a roller support rod 2
A link 25 pivotally connects the rear ends of the belt conveyors 1 and 21, and a link 25 pivotally connects the front ends of the belt conveyors 20 and 20. These links 24 and 25 are connected to the long holes 2 by an interlocking rod 26.
It is freely and interlockingly connected via 7. The guide rollers 18, 18 (roller support rods 21, 21) are pivotally attached around fulcrums P, P. Belt conveyor 20,2
Numeral 0 pivotally pivots around the fulcrums Q, Q. The rotary blade 19 is supported by a roller support rod 21 and swings integrally therewith. Accordingly, even if the head vegetables are grown in a meandering shape, the guide rollers 18 come into contact with the head vegetables and swing following them. Since the cutting is performed, the head operation after the cutting can be satisfactorily conveyed, and the driving operation is also facilitated. The configuration shown in FIGS. 8 to 15 will be described. A cabbage holding plate 28 and a weeding body 29 are provided at the start end of the transfer device 5 for holding the cabbage from the left and right and transferring the cabbage upward and backward. Herbicide 29
Are the ground sled section 30, the weeding slope guide section 31, and the curved holding section 3
2, the outer leaves are separated from the head portion by the grounding sled portion 30, and the head portion is tilted and held by the weeding inclination guide portion 31 while guiding the weeding toward the holding plate 28 side. The catching and holding is performed by the curved holding portion 32. A telescopic drive mechanism 35 including a cylinder 33 and a piston 34 is provided in the weeding body 29, and a cutting blade 36 is attached to the tip of the piston 34.
The reciprocating movement causes the cutting blade 36 to move in and out of the hole 37 to cut the cabbage stalk held in an inclined state. The expansion / contraction drive mechanism 35 is provided with the cabbage holding plate 2.
It is configured to operate in connection with the sensing operation of the sensing switch 38 provided on the 8 side. According to the herbaceous body 29 having the above-described shape, the outer leaves of the cabbage can be separated from the head portion, and the cabbage can be held in an inclined state. The stem of the cabbage can be easily cut.
