As described above, in the spare seedling stage 38 as a spare seedling frame, the link mechanism can be operated by an electric motor. A configuration example of the spare seedling stage 38 at this time is shown in FIGS. Here, a “reserved state” in which a first spare seedling stage 38a, a second preliminary seedling stage 38b, and a third preliminary seedling stage 38c, which are a plurality of spare seedling placement members for loading spare seedlings, are arranged in three upper and lower stages. ”Spare seedling stage 38, the first preliminary seedling stage 38 a, the second preliminary seedling stage 38 b, and the third preliminary seedling stage 38 c arranged in a single row on the front and back in the same plane. 38 are superimposed on each other.

  The rotation axes ax1 and ax2 of the first, second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b and 38c are respectively supported by mounting columns 49p1 and 49p2 on the support frame 49 provided on the front side of the traveling vehicle body 2. Yes. The electric spare seedling table 38 has a switching motor 300m as a switching actuator that generates a driving force by rotating forward / reversely, and when the driving force is applied from the switching motor 300m, the rotation is about the rotation axis ax1. A switching device 300 is provided that includes a rotation gear 300g as a rotation member that rotates the two-moving link member 39b.

  When the operator operates the switching motor 300m, the driving force of the switching motor 300m is transmitted to the rotation gear 300g and the second moving link member 39b rotates about the rotation axis ax1, and accordingly, the preliminary seedling is mounted. The “deployed state” and “stored state” of the table 38 are automatically switched. When the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 is operated, the driving force is transmitted to the rotating gear 300g and the spare seedling stage 38 can be automatically switched between the “deployed state” and the “storing state”. There is no need to manually switch the spare seedling stage 38, and the work efficiency is improved.

Although not shown, an adjustment dial is provided as a stop position adjustment member that can arbitrarily specify the position where the switching motor 300m stops its operation within a range of 0 to 100%. Since the operation of the switching motor 300m is stopped at the designated position, the operation of the switching motor 300m can be stopped at an arbitrary position by the adjustment dial. Breakage of the preliminary seedling stage 38 by stopping it in the “stored state” and setting the preliminary seedling stage 38 to the “deployed state” so that the end of the preliminary seedling stage 38 does not hit the end of the field. It is also possible to facilitate the loading of seedlings while preventing this.
<Shape of the first to third preliminary seedling mounts>
Next, the shapes of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b, and 38c shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 will be described. As shown in FIG. 10, the shapes of the first, second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b and 38c have the following features (1) to (7).
(1) Front projections 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F projecting forward are formed at the front end portions of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b, 38c.
(2) Rear projecting portions 38a-R, 38b-R, 38c-R projecting rearward are formed at the rear end portions of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b, 38c. .
(3) When the preliminary seedling stage 38 is switched to the “deployed state”, the rear projections 38a-R and 38b-R on the first and second preliminary seedling stages 38a and 38b located on the front side of the machine body The structure which overlaps with front side protrusion part 38b-F and 38c-F of the 2nd, 3rd preliminary seedling mounting bases 38b and 38c located in a side view.
(4) After the first and second preliminary seedling platforms 38a and 38b on the front side, between the left and right of the front protrusions 38b-F and 38c-F and on the bottoms of the second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38b and 38c The receiving members 38b-S and 38c-S for receiving the side protrusions 38a-R and 38b-R are arranged.
(5) The front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, and 38c-F are formed in a rear-upward inclined posture.
(6) The upper surfaces of the rear portions of the front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F are formed higher than the seedling mounting surfaces of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling mounting bases 38a, 38b, 38c.
(7) The rear protrusions 38a-R, 38b-R, and 38c-R are higher than the seedling mounting surfaces of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling mounting bases 38a, 38b, and 38c, and the front protrusions 38a. -F, 38b-F, 38c-F is the same as the upper surface or formed below the upper surface.

The intent of the shape is as follows.
As shown in FIG. 11, when the preliminary seedling stage 38 is set to the “deployed state”, the rear protrusions 38a-R and 38b-R on the front side first and second preliminary seedling stage 38a and 38b are located on the rear side. By receiving and receiving the receiving members 38b-S and 38c-S provided on the front projecting portions 38b-F and 38c-F of the second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38b and 38c, the first and second As shown in the side views of FIGS. 12A and 12B, the first, second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a, 38b and 38c can be prevented from being lowered too much. They can be arranged in a substantially straight line.

  Thus, as shown in FIGS. 13A and 13B, the seedling box B can be pushed and moved backward from the front, but at this time, the front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F And the rear upper surface of the front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F from the seedling mounting surfaces of the first, second, and third preliminary seedling mounting bases 38a, 38b, 38c. Since the seedling box B pushed from the front side of the machine body slides on the upper surface of the front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F, the first, second and third preliminary seedling platforms 38a , 38b, 38c, the seedling box B is not caught by the front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, 38c-F and does not move, and it is not necessary to attach a separate stopper.

  The front protrusions 38a-F, 38b-F, and 38c-F and the rear protrusions 38a-R, 38b-R, and 38c-R receive the seedling box B when the spare seedling stage 38 is "stored". Become a stopper. Further, the left and right side plates 38a-G, 38b-G, and 38c-G perform the movement restriction in the left-right direction.

Now, in the seedling transplanting machine of FIG. 8 provided with the electric spare seedling placing table 38 that can be automatically switched between the “deployed state” and the “stored state” by the switching device 300, the following functions are added. Is also possible.
<Operation restriction according to HST lever position 1>
If the spare seedling stage 38 moves due to a malfunction or the like when the traveling vehicle body 2 is traveling or the seedling planting part 4 is moved by the PTO, the preliminary seedling stage 38 comes into contact with the wall or the bank. There is a risk that the seedling loaded due to damage or the impact of the contact will fall down.

  As a countermeasure, for example, a function is added in which the spare seedling stage 38 is not operated unless the HST lever as a speed change operation lever for switching the traveling body 2 forward and backward and the traveling speed according to the inclination angle is in the “neutral” position. May be. In the block diagram of FIG. 14A, the inclination angle of the HST lever is detected by the HST lever potentiometer 401 as the detection member, and the microcomputer 400 as the control device receives the detection result from the HST lever potentiometer 401 to It is used to control the operation of the motorized spare seedling table 38.

  That is, in the flowchart of FIG. 14B, even if a switching signal is transmitted from, for example, the operation switch of the preliminary seedling stage 38, the microcomputer 400 does not immediately operate the preliminary seedling stage 38 (step ST1). Referring to the detection result of lever potentiometer 401, it is determined whether the position of the HST lever is “neutral” or other than “neutral” (step ST2).

  In cases other than “neutral” (YES in step ST2), the microcomputer 400 does not operate the preliminary seedling stage 38 from the viewpoint of ensuring safety (step ST1). On the other hand, when the position of the HST lever is “neutral” (YES in step ST2), there is no possibility of contacting the wall, bank, or surrounding obstacles even if the spare seedling stage 38 is operated. Uses the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 to operate the preliminary seedling stage 38 (step ST3).

  Thus, when the HST lever is other than “neutral”, the microcomputer 400 does not operate the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300, so that the preliminary seedling stage 38 is operated during traveling or planting work. Therefore, it is not necessary for the worker or an auxiliary worker who replenishes the seedling at the end of the field to evacuate from the movement locus of the spare seedling stage 38 and to continue the work such as seedling preparation. Will improve.

Further, since the spare seedling stage 38 is prevented from being damaged by contact with the wall or bank at the end of the field, the durability of the preliminary seedling stage 38 is maintained for a long period of time, and the impact of the contact is prevented. Since it is possible to prevent the loaded seedlings from falling downward, the work of picking up the dropped seedlings by the operator is omitted, and the labor of the operator is reduced.
<Operation restriction according to HST lever position # 2>
The above-described erroneous operation preventing configuration can be applied during high-speed traveling.

  That is, if the spare seedling stage 38 moves while the traveling vehicle body 2 is moving at a speed other than a low speed, the operation for returning to the original state will not be in time even if an erroneous operation is noticed. There is a risk of contact. In addition, if the moving speed at low speed such as during planting work, the front end portion of the preliminary seedling stage 38 is placed on a wall or the like even if the preliminary seedling stage 38 is changed from the “stored state” to the “deployed state” by an erroneous operation. It is possible to avoid contact by performing an operation of returning to the “storing state” before contact, or retreating to a position where the front end does not contact.

Further, it is not considered that the spare seedling stage 38 is operated except when the seedling is replenished or loaded on the truck.
Therefore, in FIGS. 14A and 14B, the microcomputer 400 determines whether the position of the HST lever is “3 steps or more” for both “forward” and “reverse” based on the detection result of the HST lever potentiometer 401 (step ST2). Only when the position of the HST lever is low speed (up to about the second stage before and after) (NO in step ST2), the microcomputer 400 uses the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 to operate the preliminary seedling stage 38. (Step ST3).

  Thus, when the HST lever is “forward” or “reverse” and the traveling speed is equal to or higher than a certain speed, the microcomputer 400 does not operate the switching motor 300 m of the switching device 300, thereby causing the traveling vehicle body 2. Since the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 can be operated during low-speed traveling or planting work, the preliminary seedling stage 38 may be set to the “deployed state” while heading to the field end for replenishing seedlings. In addition, since the preliminary seedling stage 38 can be placed in the “storing state” while moving after the replenishment of the seedlings, the work for replenishing the seedlings can be completed in a short time, thereby improving the work efficiency.

  In addition, since the spare seedling stage 38 does not operate during high-speed traveling or planting work of the traveling vehicle body 2, it is possible to prevent the spare seedling stage 38 from being damaged due to contact with a wall or a bank. The durability of the seedling stage 38 is maintained for a long period of time, and it is possible to prevent the seedling loaded by the impact of the contact from falling downward, so that the operator does not need to pick up the seedling that has fallen. The effort is reduced.

Note that, by making a determination based on the position of the HST lever instead of the position of the auxiliary transmission lever, the preliminary seedling stage 38 can be moved during planting and traveling (however, only at a very low speed).
<Operation restriction according to HST lever position # 3>
Similarly, the above-described erroneous operation prevention configuration may be applied during “reversing”.

  When the traveling vehicle body 2 is "reversed", the operator's attention is deviated from the front. Therefore, if the front seedling stage 38 is erroneously operated at this time, the operator switches the spare seedling stage 38. There is a higher possibility that the preliminary seedling stage 38 will come into contact with an obstacle such as a wall without noticing. Therefore, in FIGS. 14A and 14B, the microcomputer 400 determines whether or not the position of the HST lever is “reverse” based on the detection result of the HST lever potentiometer 401 (step ST2), and the position of the HST lever is “ In the case of “reverse” (YES in step ST2), the microcomputer 400 does not operate the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 (step ST1). As a result, it is possible to prevent the spare seedling stage 38 from operating while the operator confirms the rear, so that it is prevented from being damaged by contact with a wall or a bank, and the durability of the preliminary seedling stage 38 is improved. Hold for a long time.

In addition, only one of the configurations of the operation restriction 1 corresponding to the HST lever position, the operation restriction 2 corresponding to the HST lever position, and the operation restriction 3 corresponding to the HST lever position is adopted. Alternatively, a combination of arbitrary configurations may be adopted.
<Balance adjustment>
The seedling transplanter has a center of gravity at the back, and is a vehicle that can easily fall backwards when it comes to the front. Therefore, for example, the preliminary raising operation in conjunction with the raising operation of the seedling planting unit 4, that is, the operation of raising the seedling planting unit 4 little by little by the lifting hydraulic cylinder 46 of the lifting member via the lifting link device 3 which is a link mechanism. A function of balancing the front and rear of the seedling transplanting machine may be added by setting the seedling mounting base 38 to the “deployed state”. With this interlocking function, it becomes possible for many people to realize that moments can be earned on the spare seedling stage 38, and an advertising effect is also obtained.

  In FIGS. 15A and 15B, the microcomputer 400 determines whether the raising button 402 for raising the seedling planting unit 4 is “ON” and whether the reserve seedling stand opening / closing button 403 is “ It is determined whether it is “closed”, that is, whether the preliminary seedling stage 38 is in the “retracted state” (steps ST4 and ST5).

  If at least one of the two determination conditions is not satisfied (NO in step ST4 or NO in step ST5), the process is terminated, and if both of the two determination conditions are satisfied (YES in step ST4 and step ST5). The microcomputer 400 uses the switching motor 300 of the switching device 300 to operate the standby seedling stage 38 from the “stored state” to “open”, that is, “deployed state” (step ST6). When the balance raising / lowering button 402 is used to balance the front / rear, the reserve seedling stage 38 is set to the “deployed state”, so that moment can be gained in front of the seedling transplanter.

Thus, when the raising / lowering operation of the seedling planting unit 4 is detected, for example, for a predetermined number of seconds (1 second or less), the microcomputer 400 operates the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 to move the preliminary seedling mounting table 38 to the “deployed state”. ”Or“ accommodating state ”and adjusting the balance of the vehicle body, the change in the front-rear balance of the traveling vehicle body 2 due to the raising and lowering of the seedling planting portion 4 can be corrected by the preliminary seedling mounting base 38. The running posture of 2 is stabilized, and the planting accuracy and straightness of seedlings are improved.
<Support for out of seedlings>
As shown in the block diagram of FIG. 16 (a), when there are no seedlings loaded in the seedling planting unit 4 or when the remaining amount of seedlings in the seedling planting unit 4 becomes small, these “seedling out” states are established. A seedling shortage sensor 404 is provided as a seedling shortage detecting member that reacts and becomes “ON”, and the microcomputer 400 receives the detection result from the seedling shortage sensor 404 and uses the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 to prepare a preliminary seedling. The mounting table 38 can also be in the “deployed state”.

  For example, in the flowchart of FIG. 16B, the microcomputer 400 determines that the seedling out sensor 404 is “ON” and the spare seedling stage 38 is “closed” (YES in step ST7). And, at step ST8, YES), the preliminary seedling stage 38 is operated to “open” (step ST6).

  At the end of planting work, the workers are so busy that the speed of the seedling transplanter is lowered or the seedling planting part 4 is raised. In this situation, it is a burden for the operator to further operate the spare seedling stage 38. Therefore, when the seedling shortage sensor 404 is turned “ON” in response to “seedling shortage”, an operator opens the spare seedling stage 38 by adding a function to open in conjunction with this. It is possible to visually grasp the state of seedling cutting from the operation, and it is not necessary to check the rear seedling planting portion 4 so that the timing of seedling replenishment can be well understood.

In addition, it is not necessary to operate the spare seedling stage 38 at the heel and the burden on the operator can be reduced.
Furthermore, since the seedling can be replenished at an appropriate timing, the planting accuracy of the seedling can be improved.

  As a specific example of detecting a seedling breakage, as shown in FIGS. 17A and 17B, a lead cam rotation speed detection sensor 404a is provided as a seedling breakage sensor 404, whereby the rotation speed of the lead cam is detected to detect the seedling breakage. (Step ST7a), as shown in FIGS. 18 (a) and 18 (b), a seedling out sensor 404b is provided as a seedling out sensor 404b, which detects the number of seedlings by detecting the number of seedlings. A method of determining (step ST7b) is conceivable.

In addition to setting the preliminary seedling stage 38 in the “deployed state”, the switching device 300 is operated for a predetermined time or a predetermined number of times so that the preliminary seedling stage 38 is finely operated. It is also possible to notify the timing of seedling replenishment by grasping the “seedling out” state. Thereby, since the seedling can be replenished at an appropriate timing, the seedling planting accuracy is improved.
<Swivel compatible>
If the spare seedling stage 38 remains in the “deployed state” while the aircraft is turning, there is a high possibility that it will come into contact with the wall or bank, so that the “deployed state” is changed to the “stored state” in conjunction with the turning operation. A function may be added to the spare seedling stage 38.

  In recent years, it is not uncommon to have a farm in a residential area, and in such fields, there are many opportunities to approach the wall when turning, so it is essential to switch the spare seedling stage 38 to the “storage state” before turning. Become.

  That is, as shown in the block diagram of FIG. 19A, a handle turning angle sensor 405 that detects the handle turning angle is provided as a turning detection member. In the flowchart of FIG. ”Detected by the steering angle sensor 405 by turning the aircraft while the automatic switch 406 is“ ON ”and the standby seedling stage 38 is“ open ”(YES in all of steps ST9, ST10, and ST12). When the steering angle of the steering wheel exceeds a certain value (step ST11) and a difference occurs between the rotational speed sensors in the left and right gear cases, the microcomputer 400 “closes” the preliminary seedling stage 38 by the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300. That is, the “retracted state” is set (step ST13).

  In this way, when the traveling vehicle body 2 is turned, by operating the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 in the direction to place the preliminary seedling stage 38 in the “retracted state”, the preliminary seedling stage 38 is placed in the “retracted state” when turning. Therefore, the safety of the spare seedling stage 38 is improved.

In addition, the operator does not need to close the preliminary seedling stand 38 immediately before turning, and the operability is improved.
Furthermore, it is possible to prevent the end portion of the preliminary seedling stage 38 from coming into contact with the end of the field during the turning operation and being damaged.
<Auxiliary seedling stage>
In the seedling transplanter, in order to further increase the loading capacity of the seedling for replenishment, decrease the frequency of replenishing the seedling and improve the work efficiency, an auxiliary seedling platform as an auxiliary seedling loading member on which the seedling for replenishment is loaded May be added on the spare seedling stage 38 to form a four-stage configuration. Since the auxiliary seedling stage in the fourth stage needs to avoid the rotation trajectory of the link mechanism of the preliminary seedling stage 38 from the “deployed state” to the “stored state”, it is separated from the preliminary seedling stage 38 at a high distance. Had to place. Therefore, there is a problem that the auxiliary seedling stage is not easy to use and the appearance is not good.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 20, the auxiliary seedling stage 408 at the fourth stage is located within the rotation trajectory of the link mechanism of the preliminary seedling stage 38 from the “deployed state” to the “stored state”. The support frame 49 is provided at the upper part of the mounting posts 49p1 and 49p2 so as to be rotatable around the rotation axis ax3 in the front-rear direction, and can be raised up by a rotation operation around the rotation axis ax3.

  Then, as shown in FIGS. 21 (a) and 21 (b), the auxiliary seedling mounting base 408 is lowered and is in a “working posture (seedling mounting posture)” (FIG. 22 (a)) in the turning locus. Alternatively, an auxiliary seedling stage state detection sensor 409 is provided as an attitude detection member that detects whether it is a “non-working attitude” (FIG. 22B) that has risen up and deviated from the rotation trajectory. Is switched to “open (lower)”, that is, while the auxiliary seedling stage state detection sensor 409 detects that the auxiliary seedling stage 408 is in the “working posture”. The preliminary seedling stage 38 is prevented from moving by the switching motor 300m of the apparatus 300 (loop of steps ST14 to ST16). If the auxiliary seedling stage 408 is in the “non-working posture” (FIG. 22B), the microcomputer 400 rotates the preliminary seedling stage 38 by the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 (FIG. 22C). .

  Thus, by providing the auxiliary seedling stage 408 on the upper portion of the mounting posts 49p1 and 49p2, the loading amount of seedlings for replenishment increases, so the frequency of replenishing seedlings can be reduced, so that the work efficiency is improved. improves.

  In addition, by providing the auxiliary seedling stage 408 in the rotation trajectory of the link mechanism of the preliminary seedling stage 38, the upper and lower positions of the uppermost standby seedling stage 38a and the auxiliary seedling stage 408 of the preliminary seedling stage 38 are set. Since the interval can be reduced, the auxiliary seedling stage 408 can be installed at a lower position than before, and the usability and appearance are improved.

  Furthermore, the opening / closing of the auxiliary seedling stage 38 is regulated according to the state of the auxiliary seedling stage 408 that can be switched between the “working position” and the “non-working position”, and the auxiliary seedling stage 408 is in the “working position”. Occasionally, the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 is not operated, thereby preventing malfunctions and improving safety, and the link mechanism of the auxiliary seedling mounting table 38 and the auxiliary seedling mounting table 408 collide with each other. Since this can be prevented, damage to the members can be prevented, the seedling can be easily loaded and unloaded, and the work efficiency is improved.

When the spare seedling stage 38 and the auxiliary seedling stage are returned to the four-stage configuration, (b) the preliminary seedling stage 38 is set in the “storing state”. The procedure is reversed, such as “open (lower)”.
<Interlocking with manual spare seedling stand>
In the case where two spare seedling platforms 38 are provided in the seedling transplanter, if both of the preliminary seedling platforms 38 are motorized, the cost increases. However, it is more convenient to move both spare seedling platforms 38 at once. Therefore, one is a manual spare seedling stage, and the other is an electric spare seedling stage 38 by the switching device 300. As shown in FIGS. When the stand is opened and closed, the state of the manual spare seedling stage is detected by the manual spare seedling stage state detection sensor 410 (step ST17), and the microcomputer 400 switches the switching motor 300m of the switching device 300 according to the detection result. Thus, the opening and closing of the electric spare seedling stage 38 may be interlocked (steps ST18 and ST19). As a result, the above problems of cost and convenience can be solved simultaneously.
<Operation restriction according to "planting speed">
You may make it restrict | limit the operation | movement of the preliminary seedling stand 38 except "planting speed". That is, as shown in FIG. 24A, a sub-transmission lever detection sensor 411 that detects whether or not the sub-transmission lever is “planting speed” is provided. In FIG. 24B, based on the detection result of the auxiliary transmission lever detection sensor 411, the microcomputer 400 indicates that the auxiliary transmission lever is other than “planting speed” (NO in step ST20 or step ST21). Control is performed so that the stage 38 is not opened to the “deployed state” (step ST15). Thereby, in cases other than “planting speed”, that is, during movement, it is possible to prevent the spare seedling stage 38 from being opened to the “deployed state” and damaged due to an erroneous operation.
