(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to illustrated examples.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a running rail, and this running rail 1 has a rail support 2 suspended from the ceiling or the like so that it is placed above the objects to be sprayed such as plants to which the spray liquid is to be sprayed. It is installed in a greenhouse etc. via a greenhouse.

A drive pulley 3 that is driven and rotated by a manual mechanism S is arranged at one end of the running rail 1, and a driven pulley support 6 is rotatably supported at the other end of the running rail 1. A driven pulley 5 is arranged.

5.

The traveling rail 1 may be made of a shaped material such as angle-shaped steel as shown in the figure, or may be made of other suitable shaped materials. Further, the means for constructing the traveling rail 1 is not limited to the illustrated example, and can be freely set as appropriate.

The manual mechanism S has an upper support 11 fixed to the end of the shaft 3a of the drive pulley 3, which is rotatably supported by a drive pulley support 4 that can be attached to a pillar of a greenhouse, etc. The operating rod 10 is attached to the shaft 3a of
is swingably attached to the lower end of this operating rod 10,
The lower support body 12 is pivotally supported, and an endless annular conduction band 13 for operation is wound around the lower support body 12 and the upper support body 11. By rotating, the drive pulley 3 is configured to rotate reliably and smoothly via the operating conduction band 13 and the upper support 11. By the way, the operating conduction band 13 can also be moved by hand. In the illustrated example, the upper support 11 is a driven sprocket, the lower support 12 is a drive sprocket, and the operating conduction band 13 is a chain, but the present invention is not limited to this. The support body 11 may be a driven pulley, the lower support body 12 may be a drive pulley, and the operating conduction band 13 may be constituted by a rope or the like, or other appropriate means may be adopted. In particular, the operating conduction band 13 and the moving conduction band 7 may be integrally configured.

In the figure, reference numeral 15 denotes a loosening prevention pulley that prevents the moving conduction band 7 and the drive pulley 3 from slipping and also prevents the moving conduction band 7 itself from loosening.

In the illustrated example, the driven pulley support 6 is capable of adjusting the movement of the driven pulley 5 along the longitudinal direction of the traveling rail 1 so that the moving conduction band 7 wound around the driven pulley 5 does not loosen. Although it is configured so that it can be securely and easily fixed to a pillar of a greenhouse through a substantially U-shaped fixture 6a having male threads at both ends, it is impossible to adjust its movement. Moreover, the specific attachment means can be freely set as appropriate.

A traveling body 20 that is formed so as to be able to reciprocate on the traveling rail 1 while being indexed by the moving conduction band 7.
The running wheel 21 is supported at an angle of inclination so as to be in close contact with the inclined surface of the angle-shaped steel material that becomes the running rail 1, and is arranged so as to straddle both side edges of the running rail 1 from below. Since there is a running body 20
There is no risk that the running rail 1 will fall off from the running rail 1, and there is no risk that the running rail 1 will wobble or rattle in the left-right direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the running rail 1. Furthermore, since the running wheels 21 are also arranged in the longitudinal direction of the running rail 1 to form four wheels, the running body 20 moves smoothly on the running rail 1 without wobbling, and its stability is improved. It will be excellent. The structure of the running body 20 itself is as follows.
It can be set freely as appropriate without being limited to the illustrated example.

A dispersing body 25 is fixed to the traveling body 20, and the dispersing body 25 is formed by attaching a large number of dispersing devices 26 to a liquid feeding pipe 27 so as to enable spraying according to the purpose. 27 arranged perpendicularly to the traveling rail 1 (for example, one formed to reach from one side wall of a greenhouse to the other side wall), or any other suitable arrangement can be set. .

In addition, if there is a risk that the liquid feeding pipe 27 becomes long and bends, a running wheel that rolls on a running rail attached to the side wall of the greenhouse is attached to the end of the liquid feeding pipe 27.
It is also possible to prevent the liquid feeding pipe 27 itself from being bent (not shown).

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the sprayer 26 may be attached to the liquid feeding pipe 27 via a flexible tube 28, or may be attached to the liquid feeding pipe 27 via a hanging pipe that hangs downward. It may also be attached so that it can be evenly sprayed on the underside of leaves of plants, etc. (not shown). Furthermore, the configuration of the dispersing body 25 and the dispersing device 26 itself can be appropriately used depending on the purpose (for example, a spray liquid supply hose is connected to one side and a compressed air supply hose is connected to the other side, It is also possible to use a two-fluid nozzle that uses spray force to spray the spray liquid.)

A hose 40 for supplying the spraying liquid to the sprayer 26 is connected to the liquid sending pipe 27 of the sprayer 25, and the hose 40 is connected to a hose support having running wheels 31 that freely roll on the running rail 1. Running body 30
It is formed so as to follow a scattering body 25 fixed to a traveling body 20 supported by a cable 5 which moves in a rotary manner.

Moreover, when the running body 20 and each of the hose supporting running bodies 30 are in close proximity, the hose 40 is supported in a substantially helical manner as shown in FIG. 2, and the hose 40 itself is bent. This is designed to prevent the supply of spray liquid from being cut off midway.

In particular, the hose support traveling body 30
The portion to which the hose 40 is attached is formed to be rotatable in the horizontal direction relative to the portion to which the running wheels 31 are attached, and is configured to prevent twisting of the hose 40 itself. Moreover,
Similar to the running wheels 21 of the running body 20, the running wheels 31 of the hose supporting running body 30 are supported at an inclination angle so as to be in close contact with the running rail 1, and are designed to straddle both side edges of the running rail 1 from below. is located in
There is no risk of falling off the running rail 1, and the hose 40 in a spiral state can smoothly follow the movement of the running body 20 without being twisted or bent. In addition, the hose support running body 3
0 may have four running wheels 31 pivoted in the same way as the running body 20 to improve its running stability, or may have two wheels as shown in the figure to reduce its weight. It may be possible to make it possible to achieve this. Furthermore, the structure itself can be freely set as appropriate.

Note that the hose 40 used has different diameters,
Since there are differences in length, hardness, softness, etc. depending on the material, the support means is not limited to the illustrated example, and specific support means suitable for various hoses 40 can be adopted.

Further, when a two-fluid nozzle is used as the sprayer 26, a hose 40 is used to supply compressed air to the two-fluid nozzle, and a hose 40 is used to supply compressed air to the two-fluid nozzle.
The spray liquid may be formed so that the spray liquid can be supplied to the two-fluid nozzle from a spray liquid tank attached to the spray liquid tank (not shown).

The present invention is constructed as described above. Next, an example of its use will be described. First, the handle 14 is rotated, and the drive pulley 3 is rotated via the operating conduction band 13. Then, the traveling body 20 runs guided by the rotating moving conduction band 7. This running body 2
0 runs, the hose support traveling body 20 is indexed via the hose 40, and the hose 40 itself follows the spreading body 25. Moreover, at the same time, the spray liquid is sent into the hose 40 via the pump,
A spraying liquid is sprayed from a sprayer 26 attached to the sprayer 25 over the entire surface of the greenhouse. Note that when moving in one direction, the hose supporting running body 30 is indexed via the hose 40, but when moving in the other direction, it is sequentially pressed by the running body 20 and moves.

In addition, when the manual mechanism S is not in use, the operating rod 10 is swung upward, and the operating rod 10 is engaged with the drive pulley support 4 or the like through appropriate means in the upwardly swung state. (For example, make a pin insertion hole in the drive pulley support 4 and the operating rod 10 and insert the pin into the hole and lock it.) so that the manual mechanism S does not get in the way. is also possible. Incidentally, the rotation operation of the drive pulley 3 can also be performed by directly moving the operation conduction band 13.

(Effects of the Invention) Therefore, according to the spraying device of the present invention, the running rail 1 is installed horizontally in the upper part of the greenhouse so as to be located above the objects to be sprayed such as plants to which the spray liquid is to be sprayed. A drive pulley 3 is disposed beside one end of the running rail 1, and is rotatably supported by a drive pulley support 4, and connected to a manual mechanism S to be driven and rotated in forward and reverse directions. A rotatably supported driven pulley 5 is disposed on the other end of 1, and a moving conduction band 7 is wound around the driving pulley 3 and the driven pulley 5. A running body 20 having running wheels 21 rolling on a running rail 1 is fixed so as to be indexable, and a spreading body 25 to which a sprayer 26 such as a nozzle is attached is fixed to the running body 20. A hose 40 for supplying a spraying liquid to the vehicle is connected to the traveling body 20, and the manual mechanism S includes an operating rod 10 whose upper end portion is attached to the drive pulley support 4, and an operating lever 10 which is connected to the drive pulley 3 and whose upper end portion is attached to the drive pulley support 4. 11 and a lower support 12, the operation conduction band 13 is arranged along the operation rod 10 and is operable at the lower part of the operation rod 10. Since the traveling body 20 is configured to move along the traveling rail 1 via the moving conduction band 7 by the movement operation, the configuration of the spraying device itself is not large-scale, and the configuration is simplified and lightweight. The spraying equipment can be significantly improved, is less likely to break down, is easy to install in greenhouses, etc., reduces the burden of equipment costs, etc., and is an economically superior spraying equipment, and the spraying equipment can be installed in each greenhouse. become able to. Furthermore, fewer workers are required for the spraying work, and the time required for the spraying work itself is relatively short, making it possible to significantly improve the work efficiency for spraying.

Furthermore, the manual mechanism S allows the spreading body 25 to be easily and reliably moved along the running rail 1, and the spraying liquid can be sprayed from the spreading device 26 while moving the spreading body 25, so that the spreading body 25 can be easily and reliably moved along the traveling rail 1. It becomes possible to uniformly spray the spray liquid over a wide range, and the spraying efficiency also improves.

In particular, an operating rod 10 whose upper end portion is attached to the drive pulley support 4 and which is connected to the drive pulley 3,
In addition, it is disposed along the operating rod 10 via the upper support 11 and the lower support 12, and the operating rod 1
0 is provided with an operating conduction band 13 that can be operated at the lower part of the vehicle, and by moving the operating conduction band 13, the traveling body 20 is moved along the traveling rail 1 via the moving conduction band 7. Since the manual mechanism S is configured to move, the traveling rail 1 can be installed horizontally in the upper part of the greenhouse so as not to disturb the workers inside the greenhouse, and the traveling rail 1 can be moved along the traveling rail 1. The operator can easily operate the body 20 by using the operating conduction band 13 located at the lower part of the greenhouse. Moreover, since the manual mechanism S is located beside one end of the running rail 1, there is no possibility that it will get in the way inside the greenhouse.
