The free end of the operation arm 91 is linked to a traveling clutch lever 25 provided in the control unit 9 via an operation wire 94. The shift fork 92 is engaged with the shift member 53 of the travel clutch 48.

  With this linkage, the travel clutch 48 can be switched from the transmission state to the disconnected state by operating the clutch lever 25 for traveling toward the grip portion 21B of the steering handle 21 together. And the clutch lever 25 for driving | running | working can be hold | maintained in the interruption | blocking position by the effect | action of the holding mechanism (not shown) with which the control part 9 was equipped, and the driving | running | working clutch 48 can be maintained in the interruption | blocking state. Further, by holding the release lever 95 provided on the right grip 21B toward the grip 21B, the holding of the clutch lever 25 by the holding mechanism can be released, and the biasing spring 54 of the travel clutch 48 can be released. As a result, the traveling clutch 48 can be returned from the disconnected state to the transmission state, and the clutch lever 25 can be returned from the disconnected position to the transmission position.

  Further, by disposing the operation arm 91 for the traveling clutch 48 at the rear part of the T / M case 4 positioned above the lower part of the T / M case 4, mud splash from the mud surface with respect to the operation arm 91 and the like. As a result, it is possible to suppress the operation failure of the traveling clutch 48 due to the mud adhering to the operation arm 91 or the like.

  As shown in FIGS. 8, 15 and 16, mud splash from the propulsion wheel 6 to the engine 3, the T / M case 4, etc. between the T / M case 4 and the propulsion wheel 6 located behind the T / M case 4. A mud cover 96 is provided to prevent this. The operation wire 94 for the travel clutch 48 is arranged so that the inner wire 94A is connected to the operation arm 91 so that the end of the operation wire 94 moves in and out of the outer wire 94B within a predetermined area covered by the mudguard cover 96. I'm looking for it. As a result, even if the space between the T / M case 4 and the propulsion wheel 6 is narrowed to shorten the overall length of the vehicle body, mud splashing from the propulsion wheel 6 to the inner wire 94A can be reliably prevented. Further, it is possible to effectively prevent the operation failure of the traveling clutch 48 caused by mud adhering to the inner wire 94A while reducing the size of the vehicle body.

  As shown in FIGS. 1, 5, 7, and 14, an operation shaft 97 as an operation unit for the planting clutch 64 provided inside the T / M case 4 is provided on the front surface of the T / M case 4. It has been deployed. The operation shaft 97 is slidable so that it can be slidably moved between a working position that contacts the riding-type cam surface 80A formed on the shift member 80 of the planting clutch 64 and a retracted position that is separated from the cam surface 80A. / M is supported by the case 4. A front end portion of the operation shaft 97 is linked to a planting clutch lever 24 provided in the control unit 9 via a swing arm 98 and an operation wire 99. The swing arm 98 is supported by the T / M case 4 so as to swing about a horizontal axis (not shown) as a fulcrum. An urging spring 100 that urges the operation shaft 97 to return to the retracted position is installed over the T / M case 4 and the swing arm 98.

  With this linkage, the planting clutch 64 can be switched from the transmission state to the shut-off state by operating the planting clutch lever 24 together with the gripping portion 21A of the steering handle 21. The planting clutch lever 24 can be held in the shut-off position by the action of a holding mechanism (not shown) provided in the control unit 9, and the planting clutch 64 can be maintained in the shut-off state. Further, by holding the release lever 101 provided on the left gripping portion 21A toward the gripping portion 21A, the holding of the clutch lever 24 by the holding mechanism can be released, and the biasing spring of the planting clutch 64 can be released. By the action of 81 and the urging spring 110 for operation, the planting clutch 64 can be returned from the disconnected state to the transmission state, and the clutch lever 24 can be returned from the cutoff position to the transmission position.

  Further, the operation shaft 97 for the planting clutch 64 is provided on the front surface portion of the T / M case 4 where the operation member 89 for the transmission 32 and the operation arm 91 for the traveling clutch 48 do not exist. An operation mechanism B for a planting clutch including a moving arm 98 and an operation wire 99, an operation mechanism C for shifting including an operation rod 90 for the transmission 32, an operation arm 91 and an operation wire 94 for the traveling clutch 48, and the like. Therefore, the operation mechanism B for the planting clutch can be used as the operation mechanism C for the shift clutch or the operation mechanism for the travel clutch. The possibility of interfering with D can be effectively prevented.

  Further, by arranging the operation shaft 97 for the planting clutch 64 on the front surface portion of the T / M case 4 where the propulsion wheel 6 does not exist, mud splashing from the propulsion wheel 6 to the operation shaft 97 and the like can be prevented. Occurrence of poor operation of the planting clutch 64 due to mud adhering to the operation shaft 97 or the like can be effectively prevented.

  Moreover, in order to equip the front part of the T / M case 4 with the operation shaft 97 for the planting clutch 64, a heavy planting clutch 64 and the like are arranged on the front side of the T / M case 4, As a result, it is possible to improve the front-rear balance of the traveling vehicle body 1 in which the engine 3 and the T / M case 4 are arranged on the front side and the seedling planting device 2 and the like are arranged on the rear side. Can be improved.

  The planting clutch 64 has a planting operation locus (not shown) drawn by each planting mechanism 30 when the cam surface 80A of the shift member 80 is switched from the transmission state to the shut-off state by riding on the operation shaft 97. ), The operation is stopped in a state of being located at the upper part. That is, the planting clutch 64 is configured to have a function as an upper limit stop mechanism that stops the operation of each planting mechanism 30 at the upper limit position.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, a partition wall 103 for forming a breather chamber 102 is formed inside the T / M case 4 thereafter. A breather 104 extending from the breather chamber 102 is mounted on the rear upper part of the T / M case 4. The breather 104 is formed in a U-shape by a round pipe material, and both ends of the breather 104 are directed downward, and the exposed end is positioned rearward of the T / M case 4 in a T / M position. It is attached to the case 4.

  Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the oil stored in the T / M case 4 from being leaked from the breather 104 by being scraped up by the third transmission gear 40, the fourth transmission gear 41, or the like during traveling. Further, even when the vehicle body is switched to the inverted posture that is raised with the front portion of the vehicle body facing down for transportation, the oil stored in the T / M case 4 leaks from the breather 104. The fear can be prevented.

  17 is a longitudinal rear view of the main part showing the hydraulic configuration, FIG. 18 is a cross-sectional plan view of the upper side of the main part showing the hydraulic configuration, FIG. 19 is a vertical left side view of the main part showing the hydraulic configuration, FIG. 20 is a cross-sectional plan view of the lower part of the main part showing the hydraulic configuration. As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, 8 and 17 to 20, a hydraulic unit 105 is provided on the upper left side of the T / M case 4. It has been deployed.

  The hydraulic unit 105 includes a first recess 106A for forming a hydraulic pump, a second recess 106B for forming a control valve, and a third recess 106C for forming a relief valve in a hydraulic block 106 connected to the left side of the T / M case 4. , A supply oil passage 106D, a return oil passage 106E, a first supply / discharge oil passage 106F, a second supply / discharge oil passage 106G, and a discharge oil passage 106H are formed, and a trochoidal hydraulic pump 107 is formed in the first recess 106A. The second recess 106B is provided with a spool 108, and the third recess 106C is provided with a relief valve 109.

  The hydraulic pump 107 may have a different structure such as a gear pump, a plunger pump, or a vane pump.

  As shown in FIGS. 8 and 17 to 20, the first recess 106 </ b> A is configured so that the hydraulic pump 107 can be driven by the first shaft 34 projecting from the T / M case 4 toward the left outer side. It is formed on the right side surface of the hydraulic block 106 connected to the T / M case 4. As a result, the first shaft 34 of the T / M case 4 can also be used as a pump shaft.

  The second recess 106B is formed in the left-right direction from the left side surface of the hydraulic block 106 toward the inside of the hydraulic block 106 so that the left outer side portion of the hydraulic unit 105 can be used as a spool operation unit. . Then, the spool 108 is mounted on the second recess 106B so that the spool 108 can be rotated about its axis (not shown) as a fulcrum, so that the spool 108 can be adjusted as a control valve for adjusting the vehicle body height. Can function as.

  The third recess 106C extends from the right side surface of the hydraulic block 106 connected to the T / M case 4 to the supply oil passage 106D and the return oil passage 106E formed in the left-right direction toward the inside of the hydraulic block 106. It is formed vertically from the upper surface of 106 toward the inside of the hydraulic block 106. Thereby, substantially the entire third recess 106C can be used as a part of the return oil passage. The relief valve 109 is configured by disposing the poppet 110 and a biasing spring 111 for closing and biasing the poppet 110 in the third recess 106C, and closing the third recess 106C with the plug 112 serving as a spring receiver. can do.

  That is, in the hydraulic unit 105, the relief valve 109 is equipped so that the axial center direction of the poppet 110 is the vertical direction perpendicular to the first shaft 34. As a result, the left and right direction of the hydraulic unit 105 is compared with the case where the relief valve 109 is mounted so that the axial direction of the poppet 110 is the left and right direction along the axial center (not shown) of the first shaft 34. The center of gravity of the hydraulic unit 105 can be brought closer to the left and right center of the vehicle body. By adjusting the position of the center of gravity, the moment of inertia is less likely to act when the vehicle body is tilted in the left-right direction, and as a result, the handleability as a walking rice transplanter can be improved.

  Further, by installing a relief valve 109 on the hydraulic unit 105 disposed on the left side of the T / M case 4 in the vertical direction, the third recess 106C is connected to the supply oil passage 106D communicating with the inside of the T / M case 4. It can be formed so as to extend over the return oil passage 106E, thereby reducing the number of holes drilled when forming the return oil passage 106E compared to the case where the relief valve 109 is installed in the left-right direction, Manufacturing can be facilitated and costs can be reduced.

  In addition, since the plug position of the relief valve 109 is not located on the left outer side of the hydraulic unit 105 used as the spool operation portion, the operation system for the spool 108 is less likely to become an obstacle when performing maintenance on the relief valve 109. As a result, the maintainability of the relief valve 109 can be improved.

  Incidentally, the relief valve 109 may be provided in the hydraulic unit 105 so that the axial center direction of the poppet 110 is the front-rear direction orthogonal to the first shaft 34.

  As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 17, and 20, a swing arm 113 that moves integrally with the spool 108 is connected to the left end portion of the spool 108 with the shaft center of the spool 108 as a fulcrum. is there. The swing arm 113 is linked to an operation lever 22 for raising and lowering provided in the control unit 9 via an operation wire 114. That is, the spool 108 can be turned by operating the operation lever 22 for raising and lowering.

  21 is a longitudinal left side view of the main part showing the operation of the spool 108, and FIG. 22 is a right side view of the main part showing the hydraulic piping for adjusting the vehicle body height, as shown in FIGS. As shown in 18 to 22, the hydraulic unit 105 is connected to a double-acting hydraulic cylinder 115 provided for adjusting the vehicle body height on the right side of the traveling vehicle body 1 through a pair of metal pipes 116 and 117. It is. With this connection, when the spool 108 of the hydraulic unit 105 is switched from the neutral position to the raised position by operating the raising / lowering operating lever 22, the hydraulic cylinder 115 is operated to extend the oil pumped by the hydraulic pump 107. The oil is supplied to the oil chamber (not shown) and is expelled when the oil is discharged from the oil chamber (not shown) for shortening operation. When the spool 108 is switched from the neutral position to the lowered position, the oil pumped by the hydraulic pump 107 is supplied to the oil chamber for shortening operation, and the oil is discharged from the oil chamber for extension operation. This shortens the operation. When the spool 108 is switched from the raised position or the lowered position to the neutral position, the operation is stopped by stopping the supply and discharge of oil to the oil chamber for extension operation and the oil chamber for shortening operation.

  The hydraulic cylinder 115 is disposed so as to be positioned on the right outer side of the engine 3 in a posture along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. A pipe 116 connected to the oil chamber for the extension operation of the hydraulic cylinder 115 passes through the front of the engine 3 from the hydraulic unit 105 and passes from the right outer side of the hydraulic cylinder 115 to the upper side of the hydraulic cylinder 115. The chamber is connected by screwing from above. A pipe 117 connected to the oil chamber for shortening operation of the hydraulic cylinder 115 passes through the front of the engine 3 from the hydraulic unit 105 and passes below the hydraulic cylinder 115 to be connected to the oil chamber for shortening operation by screwing from below. It is.

  That is, the pipes 116 and 117 are arranged so as to bypass the engine 3 so as to overlap the hydraulic cylinder 115 in the vertical direction, whereby the recoil rope 118 extending from the right side portion of the engine 3 is provided. In addition, it can be routed toward the control unit 9 without interfering with the hydraulic cylinder 115 and the pipes 116 and 117.

  Further, by connecting the pipes 116 and 117 to the hydraulic cylinder 115 from above and below, the loosening direction can be made different from the vibration direction of the hydraulic cylinder 115, resulting in the vibration of the hydraulic cylinder 115. Thus, it is possible to prevent the connection of the pipes 116 and 117 to the hydraulic cylinder 115 from being loosened.

  FIG. 23 is a plan view of the main part showing the vehicle body height adjustment structure, and FIGS. 24 and 25 are right side views of the main part showing the vehicle body height adjustment structure, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 22 to 25. In addition, the hydraulic cylinder 115 has an end portion on the piston rod side so as to span the swing arm 119 that swings integrally with the transmission case 5 and the first side frame 7 on the right side with the left and right axis P1 as a fulcrum. Is pivoted on the swing arm 119 and the end on the cylinder tube side is pivotally supported on the first side frame 7 on the right side. The swing arm 119 is detachably attached to the right side of the transmission case 5 on the swing start end side so as to extend upward. As a result, the hydraulic cylinder 115 is mounted on the traveling vehicle body 1 in a forwardly raised posture in which the piston rod 121 as the second member extends from the cylinder tube 120 as the first member toward the front upper side.

  Then, the piping 117 is connected to the oil cylinder for shortening operation positioned on the upper side of the hydraulic cylinder 115 set in this way from below as described above, so that the piping 117 is connected to the hydraulic cylinder 115. It becomes possible to pass through a relatively low position similar to the piping 116 for the oil chamber for the extension operation located on the lower side, and as a result, maintenance of the engine 3 and its peripheral devices is facilitated.

  Further, with the configuration described above, the transmission case 5 is swung up and down around the axial center P1 as a fulcrum by operating the operating lever 22 for raising and lowering to expand and contract the hydraulic cylinder 115. Due to this up and down disturbance, the height of the propulsion wheel 6 with respect to the vehicle body can be changed, and the height of the vehicle body with respect to the ground can be adjusted. As a result, seedlings can be stably applied at a predetermined planting depth regardless of variations in the depth of the soil layer in the paddy field.

  In other words, the operation lever 22 for lifting and lowering, the swing arm 113, the operation wire 114, the hydraulic unit 105, the pipes 116 and 117, the hydraulic cylinder 115, and the like are transmitted within the swing range set by the operating stroke of the hydraulic cylinder 115. An operation mechanism E that swings the case 5 in the vertical direction is configured, and the vehicle body height adjusting mechanism F is configured by the operation mechanism E, the transmission case 5, the swing arm 119, and the like.

  As shown in FIGS. 22 to 25, the swing fulcrum portion of the swing arm 119 is a pair of one pair, and two sets in which the positions in the swing direction with the axis P <b> 1 facing the left and right as the fulcrum are different. A total of four connecting holes 119A to 118D are formed. That is, in the case where the swing arm 119 is attached to the transmission case 5 using the first set of connection holes 119A and 119C and the case where the swing arm 119 is attached using the second set of connection holes 119B and 119D, The mounting position of the swing arm 119 with respect to 5 differs depending on the swing direction thereof, so that the swing range in the vertical direction of the transmission case 5 set by the operating stroke of the hydraulic cylinder 115 is set to two levels. The setting can be changed to the swing range.

  Specifically, when the swing arm 119 is attached to the transmission case 5 using the first set of connection holes 119A and 119C, the swing range of the transmission case 5 is set to the swing range on the higher side with respect to the vehicle body. When the swing arm 119 is attached to the transmission case 5 using the second set of connection holes 119B and 119D, the swing range of the transmission case 5 is set to the lower side swing relative to the vehicle body. The moving range can be set.

  As a result, when working in a general paddy field where the soil layer extending from the cultivator to the paddy surface is relatively shallow, the swing arm 119 is attached to the transmission case 5 using the first set of connecting holes 119A and 119C. By attaching it, the height of the vehicle body can be adjusted appropriately according to the depth of the soil layer in this paddy field. In addition, when working in Fukada, such as rain-fed paddy fields (paddy fields without irrigation equipment), where the soil layer extending from the cultivator to the paddy field is relatively deep, the second set of connecting holes 119B and 119D are used to swing. By attaching the arm 119 to the transmission case 5, it is possible to appropriately adjust the height of the vehicle body according to the depth of the soil layer in Fukada.

  That is, the four connecting holes 119A to 119D drilled in the swing fulcrum portion of the swing arm 119 are the swing arm with respect to the transmission case 5 in the swing direction of the transmission case 5 with the left and right axis P1 as a fulcrum. By changing the connecting position of 119, it functions as a swing range changing means G that changes the swing range of the transmission case 5 with the left and right axis P1 as a fulcrum. By the action of this swing range changing means, Regardless of the general paddy field and the Fukada field, the propulsion wheel 6 can be properly grounded to the tiller without immersing the upper side of the vehicle body in the paddy field, and the planting operation can be performed satisfactorily.

  Further, as the hydraulic cylinder 115, it is not necessary to employ a large hydraulic cylinder having a large operation stroke that can cope with a rocking range with respect to a general paddy field as well as a rocking range with respect to Fukada. It is possible to avoid an increase in vehicle body weight, a decrease in left / right balance, and an increase in cost, etc., which are caused by adopting 115.

  FIG. 26 is a vertical right side view of the main part showing the support structure of the hydraulic cylinder 115, and FIG. 27 is a vertical rear view of the main part showing the support structure of the hydraulic cylinder 115, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 22 to 27. As described above, the cylinder tube 120 of the hydraulic cylinder 115 is pivotally supported by the first side frame 7 on the right side via the first pivotal support portion 122. The piston rod 121 of the hydraulic cylinder 115 is pivotally supported by the swing arm 119 via the second pivotal support portion 123.

  The first pivot portion 122 includes a support shaft 124 as a shaft member extending leftward from the first side frame 7 on the right side so as to support the cylinder tube 120 of the hydraulic cylinder 115, and the support shaft 124. It is comprised by the holder part 125 as a holder member formed in the rear-end part of the cylinder tube 120 so that relative rotation around the axis P2 may be carried out relatively. The second pivotal support 123 swings so as to be fitted on the shaft member 126 so as to be relatively slidable with respect to the piston rod 121 of the hydraulic cylinder 115 and to be rotatably fitted around the shaft center P3 about the axis P3. A holder member 127 extending rightward from the arm 119 is configured.

  In the second pivotal support 123, the shaft member 126 is made of a resin having a large diameter substantially the same as that of the cylinder tube 120, and receives and supports a suspension spring 128 externally fitted to the tip of the piston rod 121. 126A is formed. The holder member 127 is made of a sheet metal having a C-shaped cross section, and has a long hole 127A that allows the piston rod 121 to be inserted and relatively oscillated.

  Since the shaft member 126 is formed to have a large diameter as described above, the surface pressure applied to the shaft member 126 can be reduced, which is advantageous for the shaft member 126 in terms of cost and molding. High durability can be obtained while reducing the weight by adopting resin. Further, by using the shaft member 126 also as a spring receiver, it is possible to improve the assemblability and reduce the cost by reducing the number of parts.

  In addition, since the first pivot support portion 122 and the second pivot support portion 123 are configured as described above, the hydraulic cylinder 115 can be easily assembled to the vehicle body by insertion from the right side of the vehicle body.

  The piston rod 121 includes a bearing tool 129 that receives the shaft member 126 of the second pivotal support 123 via the suspension spring 128, a holder receiver 130 that receives the holder member 127 of the second pivotal support 123, and the like. Yes.

  FIG. 28 is a right side view of the main part showing the self-supporting holding structure of the walking rice transplanter, and FIG. 29 is a plan view of the main part showing the self-supporting holding structure of the walking rice transplanter, FIGS. As shown in FIG. 29, the left and right first side frames 7 are equipped with stands 131 for holding the walking rice transplanter independently. The left and right stands 131 are substantially attached to the first side frame 7 on the front side of the vehicle body and the acting posture of hanging on the front side of the vehicle body with the horizontal axis (not shown) of the left and right first side frames 7 as a fulcrum. It is configured so that the posture can be switched between the storage posture and the storage posture. In addition, a tension spring 132 is installed between the left and right first side frames 7 and the corresponding left and right stands 131 to enable the posture of the stand 131 to be maintained by exceeding the dead point.

  With this configuration, the walking rice transplanter can be held independently by switching the stand 131 to the action posture. When the vehicle body is moved forward and enters the paddy field while maintaining this self-supporting state, the stand 131 automatically moves from the working posture to the retracted posture due to the resistance of the paddy mud applied to the stand 131. It will be switched. As a result, it is possible to prevent the vehicle body from sinking due to the stand 131 being switched to the action posture even after entering the paddy field.

  FIG. 30 is a longitudinal rear view of the main part showing the suspension support structure of the walking rice transplanter. As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 28 to 30, the walking rice transplanter can be suspended and conveyed. A plurality of hooks 133 are provided. Two of these hooks 133 on the front side of the vehicle body are formed on brackets 134 provided for connection to the T / M case 4 at the front end portions of the left and right first side frames 7. Further, the two on the rear side of the vehicle body are formed on a pair of left and right handle frames 20 and brackets 135 provided for supporting the leveling float 26, seedling mount 27 and the like.

  As a result, it is not necessary to equip dedicated parts for hanging and conveying, and as a result, it is possible to improve assembling and reduce costs by reducing the number of parts.

  FIG. 31 is a front view of the main part showing the fuel supply structure. As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 31, the fuel tank 10 is formed so that the discharge port 10A is inclined toward the lower right. In addition, the discharge port 10A is arranged near the carburetor 136 of the engine 3. Thereby, even if the fuel tank 10 is brought close to the upper end of the engine 3, piping from the discharge port 10A of the fuel tank 10 to the carburetor 136 can be easily performed.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIG. 5, this walking rice transplanter is equipped with a work light 137. The work lamp 137 is supported by the hydraulic unit 105 protruding from the upper cover 11 via the support bracket 138 so that the direction of the work lamp 137 can be changed in the vertical and horizontal directions. Accordingly, the irradiation range can be widened and the degree of freedom in setting the irradiation direction can be increased as compared with the case where the work lamp 137 is provided inside the upper cover 11, and as a result, the work lamp 137 is used. It is possible to improve workability during night work.
