BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  The present inventionSeedling facilities for seeding seedling boxes and raising seedlingsIt is about.
[0002]
[Prior art]
FIG. 7 to FIG. 11 show seedling box stacking devices provided in the nursery facility. This stacking device 20 is a device for stacking seedling boxes, which have been seeded in the seedling box in the seeding process, seeded with seeds, covered with soil, etc., in a stacked form for a budding process, and is used for the conveyor 5 in the seeding process. The seedling box C after sowing that is transported in the step is raised to a predetermined height by a seedling box lift 22 and then pulled out from the seedling box lift 22 onto the first transport conveyor 23 by a drawing cylinder 29 as a seedling box supply means. Further, the first transfer conveyor 23 is handed over to the second transfer conveyor 24, dropped one by one from the second transfer conveyor 24, and stacked on the lifting platforms 25A and 25B in a stacked manner.
[0003]
Since the drawing cylinder 29 is an air cylinder, the drawing speed cannot be adjusted, and the second conveying conveyor 24 conveys the seedling box from both the left and right sides with a pair of clamping belts 24a and 24a. Since it is the structure to perform, the seedling box conveyance speed cannot be made very fast on the structure. For this reason, the seedling box conveyance speed of the second conveyor 24 is slower than the seedling box drawing speed of the drawing cylinder 29. Conventionally, the seedling box conveying speed of the first conveying conveyor 23 is set to be the same as the seedling box conveying speed of the second conveying conveyor 24 so that the seedling box is smoothly transferred from the first conveying conveyor 23 to the second conveying conveyor 24. It was.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, with the above configuration, the seedling box C is smoothly transferred from the first transporting conveyor 23 to the second transporting conveyor 24, but the seedling box transport of the first transporting conveyor 23 is faster than the seedling box drawing speed of the pulling cylinder 29. Since the speed is low, when the seedling box C is pulled out to the first transport conveyor 23 by the drawing cylinder 29, the first transport conveyor 23 and the seedling box C slip and there is an impact on the seedling box C, and the soil in the seedling box is offset. There was a failure.
[0005]
In view of the above circumstances, the present invention applies an impact to the seedling box both when the seedling box is pulled out to the first conveyor by the drawer cylinder and when the seedling box is pulled from the first conveyor to the second conveyor. The purpose is to prevent the soil in the seedling box from being displaced.
