Description

この発明は、野球場や校庭などに敷設した人工芝、或いはカーペット等の人工的敷設物を、張り替えなどのために撤去する際に実施される人工的敷設物の切断方法、及び同方法に使用する切断装置並びに治具の技術分野に属し、更に言えば、フォークリフトを走行手段として採用することにより前記人工的敷設物を高速切断することができ、作業性及び経済性に非常に優れた人工芝等の人工的敷設物の高速切断方法と高速切断装置、及びその治具に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for cutting an artificial laying material, which is performed when an artificial turf laid on a baseball field, a schoolyard, or the like, or an artificial laying material such as a carpet is removed for replacement, and the like. cutting apparatus and belongs to the technical field of the jig to, and more, the artificial laying thereof can speed cutting by adopting a forklift as traveling means, a very excellent workability and economy The present invention relates to a high-speed cutting method, a high-speed cutting device, and a jig for an artificial laying object such as artificial turf.

人工芝は、天然芝と比してメンテナンスフリーで耐久性や美観に優れているという理由から、近年その需要が高く、野球場や校庭、フィールド競技場、球技コート等の各種運動競技場に多く使用されている。
しかし、人工芝は耐久性に優れているとはいえ、自然劣化や摩耗などによる損傷は避けられず、5年ないし10年ぐらいの周期で張り替える必要がある。また、損傷していなくても、ドーム状施設等では各種運動競技やコンサートなどに応じて頻繁に人工芝を張り替える必要がある。
Artificial turf is more demanding in recent years because it is maintenance-free and superior in durability and aesthetics compared to natural turf, and is often used in various athletic stadiums such as baseball fields, school grounds, field stadiums, and ball game courts. in use.
However, although artificial turf is excellent in durability, damage due to natural deterioration or wear is inevitable, and it is necessary to replace it with a period of about 5 to 10 years. Even if it is not damaged, it is necessary to frequently replace artificial turf in dome-like facilities according to various athletics and concerts.

この人工芝の張り替え作業において、従来、最も手間と時間を要した作業が人工芝の切断作業である。従来は、作業者が所謂コンクリートカッターを操作して、人工芝を、撤去・回収作業に適した大きさに切断していた。
しかし、前記コンクリートカッターを用いた切断作業は、そもそもコンクリートカッターがコンクリートの切断に適する低速度の走行能力、たとえば毎分1〜2m程度の速度でしか人工芝を切断できず、作業性が甚だ悪いという問題があった。また、人工芝を敷設したコンクリート床や板張り床その他の敷設面上の人工芝をコンクリートカッターで直接切断するので、その敷設面を損傷させるという問題があった。さらに、コンクリートカッターは敷設面上の人工芝を単純に切断するだけなので、つづいて敷設面へ接着等されている人工芝を引き剥がす作業の手掛かりに乏しく、撤去作業に難渋していた。
In this artificial turf replacement work, conventionally, the most labor-intensive and time-consuming work is the artificial turf cutting work. Conventionally, an operator operates a so-called concrete cutter to cut the artificial turf into a size suitable for removal and collection work.
However, in the cutting work using the concrete cutter, the artificial turf can only be cut at a low speed traveling capacity suitable for cutting concrete, for example, at a speed of about 1 to 2 m per minute, and the workability is very poor. There was a problem. Moreover, since the artificial turf on the laying surface such as a concrete floor, a wooden floor or the like on which the artificial turf is laid is directly cut with a concrete cutter, there is a problem that the laying surface is damaged. Furthermore, since the concrete cutter simply cuts the artificial turf on the laying surface, there are few clues for the work of peeling off the artificial turf that is bonded to the laying surface, which makes it difficult to remove.

ところで、特許文献1には、人工芝を敷設状態で裁断(切断)するに際して、該人工芝の被裁断部分を床(敷設面)から浮かせた後、該浮上部分をカッターを用いて裁断する、人工芝の裁断方法が開示されている(同文献1の請求項1参照)。また、敷設状態の人工芝を若干持ち上げる機構と、円盤カッターと、カッティングしながら前進できる自走機構とを備え、かつ、これらの機構が駆動機構を有する本体の片側に備えられた人工芝の裁断装置が開示されている(同文献1の請求項5参照)。
この特許文献1に係る技術によると、敷設面から浮き上がらせた人工芝をカッターを用いて切断するので、人工芝の敷設面を損傷させるという問題は解消した。
By the way, in Patent Document 1, when cutting (cutting) the artificial turf in the laid state, after floating the cut portion of the artificial turf from the floor (laying surface), the floating portion is cut using a cutter. An artificial turf cutting method is disclosed (see claim 1 of the document 1). In addition, it has a mechanism for slightly lifting the laid artificial turf, a disk cutter, and a self-propelled mechanism that can move forward while cutting, and these mechanisms are provided on one side of the main body having a drive mechanism, and cut artificial turf An apparatus is disclosed (see claim 5 of the document 1).
According to the technique according to Patent Document 1, since the artificial turf raised from the laying surface is cut using a cutter, the problem of damaging the laying surface of the artificial turf has been solved.

特開平7−158009号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-158209

上記特許文献1に係る技術によると、下記する問題があった。
(1)同文献1の図1の記載から、自走機能は、コンクリートカッター等の市販の大型カッター装置と推認される。また、自走機構の後部上方に把持部を備えていることから、作業者が追従歩行しながら操縦することにより切断作業を行うものと認められる。そうすると、やはり毎分1〜2m程度の速度でしか人工芝を切断できず、作業性が甚だ悪いという問題は残されたままである。その証左に、同文献1の段落[0013]の7〜8行目には、「2m/minの速度で、約1m角に切断した。」との記載が認められる。
(2)前記(1)の問題に伴い、野球場、フィールド競技場などに敷設した広大な人工芝を張り替える場合の工程が、人工芝の切断作業の進捗の遅さに左右されてしまい、切断作業に数日を要することも珍しくないという問題があった。その証左に、同文献1の段落[0013]の8〜9行目には、「カッティングはトータル長さ約1,000mで、2日かけて実施した」との記載が認められる。
(3)次に、同文献1の技術は、カッター装置に、人工芝持ち上げ機構2を精度良く強固に固定しなければならないので、切断作業の度にいちいちカッター装置に人工芝持ち上げ機構2を確実に取り付ける加工を施す必要があり、この作業が煩わしく、コストも嵩むという問題があった。
(4)さらに、同文献1の装置は、人工芝持ち上げ機構2の先端が、自走機構の前輪3より後方に位置する(同文献1の図1参照)ので、云わば車輪3で押さえつけた近傍の人工芝を人工芝持ち上げ機構2で敷設面から無理矢理引き剥がす不合理な作業を強いる構成であるため、前進走行時の抵抗が大きく、高速切断作業を困難にしているという問題があった。
According to the technique according to Patent Document 1, there are the following problems.
(1) From the description of FIG. 1 of the document 1, the self-propelled function is assumed to be a commercially available large cutter device such as a concrete cutter. Further, since the gripping portion is provided above the rear portion of the self-propelled mechanism, it is recognized that the operator performs the cutting operation by maneuvering while following the walking. As a result, the artificial turf can only be cut at a speed of about 1 to 2 meters per minute, and the problem of poor workability remains. On the left of the proof, in the 7th to 8th lines of paragraph [0013] of the document 1, a description “cut into about 1 m square at a speed of 2 m / min” is recognized.
(2) Due to the problem of (1), the process of replacing the vast artificial turf laid in a baseball field, a field stadium, etc. depends on the slow progress of the artificial turf cutting operation, There was a problem that it was not uncommon for the cutting work to take several days. On the left side of the document, in paragraphs 8 to 9 of paragraph [0013] of the document 1, it is recognized that “cutting was performed over 2 days with a total length of about 1,000 m”.
(3) Next, since the technique of the literature 1 must firmly and accurately fix the artificial turf lifting mechanism 2 to the cutter device, the artificial turf lifting mechanism 2 is surely attached to the cutter device every time a cutting operation is performed. There is a problem that it is necessary to perform a process of attaching to the head, and this work is troublesome and the cost is increased.
(4) Furthermore, in the apparatus of the literature 1, the tip of the artificial turf lifting mechanism 2 is positioned behind the front wheel 3 of the self-propelled mechanism (see FIG. 1 of the literature 1), so that it is pressed by the wheels 3. Since the artificial turf lifting mechanism 2 forcibly removes the nearby artificial turf from the laying surface, the artificial turf lifting mechanism 2 is forced to perform an unreasonable operation, so that there is a problem that resistance during forward traveling is large and high-speed cutting is difficult.

前記カッター装置2は、本実施例1では、市販の所謂コンクリートカッター装置2を用いており、型式は特に限定されない。このカッター装置2は、前記フォークリフト3で持ち上げて前記治具1のカッター載置台6上に載せ、前記ターンバックル等の固定具10の両端部を、前記カッター装置2に設けたコ字形状の係止部18と前記留め具15に掛け止める構成で、前記治具1上にしっかり固定することができる(請求項記載の発明)。 In the first embodiment, the cutter device 2 uses a so-called concrete cutter device 2 that is commercially available, and the model is not particularly limited. The cutter device 2 is lifted by the forklift 3 and placed on the cutter mounting table 6 of the jig 1, and both ends of the fixture 10 such as the turnbuckle are attached to the cutter device 2. It can be firmly fixed on the jig 1 with a structure that is hooked on the stopper 18 and the fastener 15 (invention of claim 8 ).

また、前記カッター装置2は、効率的、且つ合理的に人工芝を切断するべく、前記治具1上に載置した際に、そのカッター12の位置が、前記先導アーム11の真上に位置する構成で実施している。具体的に、本実施例1では、前記先導アーム11の長手方向に、カッター装置2のカッター12が臨む細長い溝11b(又は凹部)が設けられ、当該溝11b(又は凹部)にカッター12が切断代相当の深さ差し込まれる構成で実施されている。ちなみに、本実施例1では、前記カッター装置2のカッター12の刃先の下方部分が、前記先導アーム11の溝11b内に収まる構成で実施している。 Further, when the cutter device 2 is placed on the jig 1 so as to cut the artificial turf efficiently and rationally, the cutter 12 is positioned just above the leading arm 11. configuration that has been carried out in that.

このような構成で実施することにより、前記先導アーム11により敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は、同先導アーム11上に載り上げて前記カッター12へと誘導されて当該カッター12により切断されるのである。さらに、前記カッター12により切断された人工芝4は、中央部を尖らせた突起状に形成した前記支持脚9によりスムーズに二分されて敷設面5上に落下するのである。   By carrying out with such a configuration, the artificial turf 4 raised from the laying surface 5 by the leading arm 11 is placed on the leading arm 11, guided to the cutter 12, and cut by the cutter 12. It is. Further, the artificial turf 4 cut by the cutter 12 is smoothly divided into two by the support legs 9 formed in a protruding shape with a sharpened central part and falls onto the laying surface 5.

なお、本実施例1に係る前記先導アーム11は、前記治具1に対して進行方向右側に設けて実施しているがこれに限定されず、使用するカッター装置2のカッター12位置に応じて適宜設計変更可能である。例えば、図示は省略するが、チェーンソー等の帯状カッターを治具1のカッター載置台6に設けて実施する場合には、前記治具1の中央部に設けて実施することもできる。
また、図示は省略するが、前記カッター12の消耗を極力抑制するべく、前記人工芝4の切断部分に水を供給してカッター12で切断する作業を行うこともできる(請求項記載の発明)。この場合、前記治具1又はフォークリフト3に、前記人工芝4の切断部分に水を供給する構成の水タンクを設けて実施する(請求項記載の発明)。
In addition, although the said leading arm 11 which concerns on the present Example 1 is provided and implemented in the advancing direction right side with respect to the said jig | tool 1, it is not limited to this, According to the cutter 12 position of the cutter apparatus 2 to be used. The design can be changed as appropriate. For example, although not shown, when a strip cutter such as a chain saw is provided on the cutter mounting table 6 of the jig 1, it can be provided at the center of the jig 1.
Although not shown, in order to minimizing the consumption of the cutter 12, the invention of which the supplied water to the cut portion of the artificial turf 4 can also perform the work to be cut with a cutter 12 (claim 2, wherein ). In this case, the jig 1 or the forklift 3 is provided with a water tank configured to supply water to the cut portion of the artificial turf 4 (invention according to claim 4 ).

かくして、上述した構成の人工芝4の高速切断装置は、先導アーム11を備えた治具1上に、カッター装置2を、同先導アーム11の真上にカッター12が位置する構成でしっかり固定することができる。また、前記カッター装置2を載置した治具1を、そのフォーク挿入部7に後方からフォーク13を差し込んだフォークリフト3により、安定した状態で支持して前進走行させることができるのである。   Thus, in the high-speed cutting device for the artificial turf 4 having the above-described configuration, the cutter device 2 is firmly fixed on the jig 1 provided with the leading arm 11 so that the cutter 12 is positioned directly above the leading arm 11. be able to. Further, the jig 1 on which the cutter device 2 is placed can be supported and moved forward in a stable state by the forklift 3 in which the fork 13 is inserted into the fork insertion portion 7 from behind.

したがって、前記高速切断装置を使用して行う人工芝の高速切断方法は、先ず、前記カッター装置2を載置した治具1をフォークリフト3のフォーク13で支持し、当該治具1をフォークリフト3の昇降機14により切断作業に好適な高さ(地上から1cm程度)に持ち上げて支持する。そして、切断しようとする人工芝4にナイフ等で切れ目を入れ、前記先導アーム11を前記切れ目に誘導してその先端部を人工芝4とその敷設面5との間へ潜り込ませて前記フォークリフト3を前進走行させる。そうすると、図4に示したように、前記先導アーム11は、その先端部の低摩擦板11aによりスムーズに敷設面5上を潜行(前進)することができ、これに伴い敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は、前記先導アーム11上に載り上げて当該先導アーム11の真上の位置に位置決め固定されたカッター12へ案内され、当該カッター12で切断される。切断された人工芝4は、前記支持脚9によりスムーズに二分されて敷設面5上に落下し、これにより、人工芝4の連続的な切断作業を行うことができる。   Therefore, in the high-speed cutting method of artificial turf performed using the high-speed cutting device, first, the jig 1 on which the cutter device 2 is placed is supported by the fork 13 of the forklift 3, and the jig 1 is attached to the forklift 3. The elevator 14 lifts and supports it to a height suitable for cutting work (about 1 cm from the ground). Then, the artificial turf 4 to be cut is cut with a knife or the like, the leading arm 11 is guided to the cut, and the leading end thereof is submerged between the artificial turf 4 and the laying surface 5 so that the forklift 3 To move forward. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the leading arm 11 can smoothly submerge (advance) on the laying surface 5 by the low friction plate 11 a at the tip thereof, and is lifted from the laying surface 5 accordingly. The artificial turf 4 is placed on the leading arm 11, guided to a cutter 12 positioned and fixed at a position directly above the leading arm 11, and cut by the cutter 12. The cut artificial turf 4 is smoothly bisected by the support legs 9 and falls onto the laying surface 5, whereby the artificial turf 4 can be continuously cut.

かくして、前記先導アーム11は、前記フォークリフト3の高速走行速度に応じて人工芝4と敷設面5との間を高速で潜行することができ、先導アーム1により敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は後続のカッター装置2のカッター12で切断するので、フォークリフト3の高速走行速度に応じた高速切断が可能となるのである。ちなみに、本出願人は、前記治具1を支持したフォークリフト3を、8km/時(約133m/分)の高速度で走行させて、良好な高速切断作業が遂行できることを確認している。   Thus, the leading arm 11 can dive between the artificial turf 4 and the laying surface 5 at a high speed according to the high-speed traveling speed of the forklift 3, and the artificial turf 4 lifted from the laying surface 5 by the leading arm 1. Is cut by the cutter 12 of the subsequent cutter device 2, so that high-speed cutting according to the high-speed traveling speed of the forklift 3 becomes possible. Incidentally, the present applicant has confirmed that a good high-speed cutting operation can be performed by running the forklift 3 supporting the jig 1 at a high speed of 8 km / hour (about 133 m / min).

上記構成の高速切断方法及び高速切断装置によれば、上記特許文献1に係る切断方法と比して、フォークリフト3の高速走行速度に応じて数十倍(約133m/分で切断作業を行えば、66.5倍)の高速度で人工芝4の高速切断作業を行うことができるので、切断作業に要する時間を飛躍的に短縮することができる。よって、人工芝4の撤去や張り替えの作業性及び経済性に非常に優れている。また、フォークリフト3の操縦により、進行方向及び走行速度を自在に楽に操作できるので作業者の労力を軽減できる。
先導アーム11で敷設面5から浮き上がらせた人工芝4を切断するので、人工芝4の敷設面5を損傷させる虞がない。
機構的に人工芝4と敷設面5の間へ潜り込み人工芝4を浮き上がらせる先導アーム11の働きを制約する何物も存在せず、先導アーム11は常に先行して人工芝4を浮き上がらせるので、効率的、且つ合理的な引き剥がし作業、および切断作業を進められる。
その他、高速切断作業専用の治具1を用いることにより、市販のカッター装置2、及びフォークリフト3をそのまま利用して実施できるので、経済的、且つ合理的である。
According to the high-speed cutting method and the high-speed cutting apparatus having the above-described configuration, compared to the cutting method according to Patent Document 1, if the cutting operation is performed at several tens of times (about 133 m / min) according to the high-speed traveling speed of the forklift 3. Since the artificial grass 4 can be cut at a high speed of 66.5 times), the time required for the cutting work can be drastically reduced. Therefore, it is very excellent in the workability and economical efficiency of removing and replacing the artificial turf 4. Further, by maneuvering the forklift 3, the traveling direction and traveling speed can be freely and easily operated, so that the labor of the operator can be reduced.
Since the artificial turf 4 lifted from the laying surface 5 by the leading arm 11 is cut, there is no possibility of damaging the laying surface 5 of the artificial turf 4.
There is nothing that restricts the function of the leading arm 11 that mechanically sinks between the artificial turf 4 and the laying surface 5 and raises the artificial turf 4, and the leading arm 11 always raises the artificial turf 4 in advance. Efficient and reasonable peeling work and cutting work can be carried out.
In addition, by using the jig 1 dedicated to high-speed cutting work, the commercially available cutter device 2 and the forklift 3 can be used as they are, so that it is economical and reasonable.

なお、本実施例1に係る先導アーム11は、前記カッター12と同様に経時的に最も消耗する部材と考えられるので、前記治具1の下部(本実施例では、鋼製部材6bの下部に設けた支持脚9)に、ボルト等の接合手段で着脱可能に取り付けることにより、容易に取り替え可能な構成で実施することもできる(請求項記載の発明)。また、本実施例1に係るカッター装置2は、所謂ダイヤモンドカッター等の円盤カッターを備えた装置で実施しているがこれに限定されず、チェーンソー等の帯状カッターで実施することもできる(請求項記載の発明)。その他、前記治具1に設けたフォーク挿入部7の形状及び大きさは勿論図示例に限定されず、個々のフォーク13が挿入し得るだけの形状及び大きさで実施することもできる。また、前記フォーク挿入部7に挿入したフォーク13の抜け止め手段として、ねじ切りボルト17を使用しているがこれに限定されないことは勿論である。

なお、前記車両20は、芝刈り機に限定されるものではなく、トラクターやティラー(耕運機)、或いはタイヤショベル等、その前部に先導アーム11と簡易なカッター装置19を設備可能な車両であれば同様に実施できる。
That is, the high-speed cutting device according to this reference example has a lawn mower or the like mainly without using the dedicated jig 1 and the commercially available so-called concrete cutter device 2 as compared with the high-speed cutting device according to the first embodiment. The only difference is that the front part of the vehicle 20 is remodeled and the leading arm 11 and the simple cutter device 19 are installed.
The vehicle 20 is not limited to a lawn mower, and may be a vehicle such as a tractor, a tiller (a cultivator), or a tire excavator that can be equipped with a leading arm 11 and a simple cutter device 19 at the front thereof. Can be implemented similarly.

前記先導アーム21は、その後方の上部に溶接等の接合手段で設けた前後2つの支持脚25、25を前記車両20の構成部材(図示例では平板プレート)21へハンドル型昇降手段22、22を介してそれぞれ取り付けることにより、高さ及び前傾角度を調整可能な構成で、車両20に着脱自在に設けられている。
なお、図示例では、支持脚25を前後に2つ設けて実施しているが、前記先導アーム11に生じる回転モーメントに十分に耐えうる構造であれば、1つでも実施可能である。また、前記支持脚25の形状は、前記実施例1で説明したように、前記カッター12で切断した人工芝4がその前部に衝突して止まることなくスムーズに敷設面5上に落下させるべく、人工芝4が衝突する側の支持脚25の前部を、中央部を尖らせた突起状に形成するなどの工夫が施されている。
ちなみに、図中の符号26は、前記平板プレート21の下面に固定され、前記支持脚25の水平方向へのずり動きを防止するためのホルダーを示している。
The leading arm 21 is provided with two support legs 25, 25 provided at the rear upper part thereof by means of welding or the like to a component member (flat plate in the illustrated example) 21 of the vehicle 20 and handle type lifting means 22, 22 by attaching each via, in adjustable constituting the height and forward inclination angle, that have been detachably attached to the vehicle 20.
In the illustrated example, two support legs 25 are provided on the front and rear sides, but one support leg 25 may be used as long as the structure can sufficiently withstand the rotational moment generated in the leading arm 11. In addition, as described in the first embodiment, the shape of the support leg 25 is such that the artificial turf 4 cut by the cutter 12 can be smoothly dropped onto the laying surface 5 without colliding with the front portion and stopping. Further, a device has been devised such as forming the front part of the support leg 25 on the side on which the artificial turf 4 collides with a protrusion having a sharpened central part.
Incidentally, reference numeral 26 in the figure denotes a holder that is fixed to the lower surface of the flat plate 21 and prevents the support leg 25 from sliding in the horizontal direction.

前記カッター装置19は、エンジン27からの動力伝達にてカッター12が回転駆動するように構成され、前記先導アーム11に設けた溝11bに、前記カッター12が切断代相当の深さ差し込まれる構成で実施している(具体的に、前記先導アーム11とカッター12との取り合いは、上記実施例1に係る段落[0034]を参照)。
このような構成で実施することにより、上記実施例1と同様に、前記先導アーム11により敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は、同先導アーム11上に載り上げて前記カッター12へと誘導されて当該カッター12により切断されるのである。さらに、前記カッター12により切断された人工芝4は、走行方向前側に設けた支持脚25によりスムーズに二分されて敷設面5上に落下するのである。
The cutter device 19 is configured such that the cutter 12 is rotationally driven by power transmission from the engine 27, and the cutter 12 is inserted into a groove 11b provided in the leading arm 11 to a depth corresponding to a cutting allowance. (Specifically, for the engagement between the leading arm 11 and the cutter 12, see paragraph [0034] according to the first embodiment).
By implementing with such a configuration, the artificial turf 4 floating from the laying surface 5 by the leading arm 11 is placed on the leading arm 11 and guided to the cutter 12 as in the first embodiment. Then, it is cut by the cutter 12. Further, the artificial turf 4 cut by the cutter 12 is smoothly divided into two by the support legs 25 provided on the front side in the traveling direction and falls onto the laying surface 5.

Incidentally, the code | symbol 24 in a figure has shown the water supply pipe | tube.

したがって、前記高速切断装置を使用して行う人工芝の高速切断方法は、先ず、前記ハンドル型昇降手段22、22により、前記先導アーム11を切断作業に好適な高さ(地上から1cm程度)、及び前傾角度に位置決めする。そして、切断しようとする人工芝4にナイフ等で切れ目を入れ、前記先導アーム11を前記切れ目に誘導してその先端部を人工芝4とその敷設面5との間へ潜り込ませて前記車両20を前進走行させる。そうすると、実施例1に係る図4に示したように、前記先導アーム11は、その先端部の低摩擦板11aによりスムーズに敷設面5上を潜行(前進)することができ、これに伴い敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は、前記先導アーム11上に載り上げて当該先導アーム11の真上の位置に位置決め固定されたカッター12へ案内され、当該カッター12で切断される。切断された人工芝4は、走行方向前側の支持脚25によりスムーズに二分されて敷設面5上に落下し、これにより、人工芝4の連続的な切断作業を行うことができる。   Therefore, the artificial grass lawn high-speed cutting method performed using the high-speed cutting device first has a height (about 1 cm from the ground) suitable for cutting the leading arm 11 by the handle type lifting means 22, 22. And positioning at a forward tilt angle. Then, a cut is made in the artificial turf 4 to be cut with a knife or the like, the leading arm 11 is guided to the cut, and the tip part is submerged between the artificial turf 4 and the laying surface 5 so that the vehicle 20 is cut. To move forward. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 according to the first embodiment, the leading arm 11 can smoothly submerge (advance) on the laying surface 5 by the low friction plate 11a at the tip thereof, and laying along with this The artificial turf 4 floating from the surface 5 is placed on the leading arm 11, guided to the cutter 12 positioned and fixed at a position directly above the leading arm 11, and cut by the cutter 12. The cut artificial turf 4 is smoothly divided into two by the support legs 25 on the front side in the traveling direction and falls onto the laying surface 5, whereby the artificial turf 4 can be continuously cut.

かくして、前記先導アーム11は、前記車両20の高速走行速度に応じて人工芝4と敷設面5との間を高速で潜行することができ、先導アーム1により敷設面5から浮き上がった人工芝4は後続のカッター装置19のカッター12で切断するので、車両20の高速走行速度に応じた高速切断が可能となるのである。ちなみに、本出願人は、前記車両を、4km/時(約66.6m/分)の高速度で走行させて、良好な高速切断作業が遂行できることを確認している。   Thus, the leading arm 11 can dive between the artificial turf 4 and the laying surface 5 at a high speed according to the high-speed traveling speed of the vehicle 20, and the artificial turf 4 lifted from the laying surface 5 by the leading arm 1. Since cutting is performed by the cutter 12 of the subsequent cutter device 19, high-speed cutting according to the high-speed traveling speed of the vehicle 20 becomes possible. Incidentally, the applicant has confirmed that the vehicle can be driven at a high speed of 4 km / hour (about 66.6 m / min) to perform a good high-speed cutting operation.

上記構成の高速切断方法及び高速切断装置によれば、上記特許文献1に係る切断方法と比して、車両20の高速走行速度に応じて数十倍(約66.6m/分で切断作業を行えば、約33倍)の高速度で人工芝4の高速切断作業を行うことができるので、切断作業に要する時間を飛躍的に短縮することができる。また、前記車両20を、作業者が追従歩行するタイプの芝刈り機ではなく、有人タイプのトラクターやティラー等を利用して実施する場合には、上記実施例1と同程度の高速切断が可能となる。よって、人工芝4の撤去や張り替えの作業性及び経済性に非常に優れている。また、車両20の操縦により、進行方向及び走行速度を自在に楽に操作できるので作業者の労力を軽減できる。
先導アーム11で敷設面5から浮き上がらせた人工芝4を切断するので、人工芝4の敷設面5を損傷させる虞がない。
機構的に人工芝4と敷設面5の間へ潜り込み人工芝4を浮き上がらせる先導アーム11の働きを制約する何物も存在せず、先導アーム11は常に先行して人工芝4を浮き上がらせるので、効率的、且つ合理的な引き剥がし作業、および切断作業を進められる。
