2. Description of the Related Art Leaf tobacco picked from a field is hung in a bundle in a drying chamber and dried for a predetermined time. Since the work of picking leaf tobacco has been mechanized these days, the picked leaf tobacco is harvested in pieces. Therefore, as described above, even when the leaf tobacco is bundled in the drying process, the leaf tobacco suspending tool has been developed which holds the leaf tobacco bundled in the separated state and hangs it in the drying chamber as it is.

The leaf tobacco hanging device of Japanese Patent Application No. 6-5855 is constructed so that a bundle of leaf tobacco is sandwiched between a rack with a fork and a receiving rack which are formed by connecting two rods in parallel. . The fork-equipped rack has a large number of long needles arranged in a comb-like shape and projected along two rods connected in parallel. Further, a receiving portion is provided along both rods of the receiving rack to receive the tip of each long needle, and both racks are separated from each other by a connector provided at both ends so that the distance between them is somewhat smaller than the length of the long needle. It is designed to be connected.

The racks are stacked on top of each other, and the leaf tobacco is pierced with a long needle of a rack with a fork to connect the racks. As a result, the bundle of leaf cigarettes is sandwiched between the two racks in a state of being stabbed by two rows of parallel long needles, and is individually suspended so as not to spill out.

[0005]

However, when the above-mentioned leaf cigarette hanging device is to be stored after use, even if both racks of the receiving rack and the rack of the fork are overlapped, both racks are folded. That is, two rows of long hands will protrude from the rack with forks in parallel. Therefore, even in the housed state, the row of long hands protrudes, so that a housed space is needed that is not different from the combined state of both racks. In addition, since the row of long hands projects as it is during storage work, there is a danger in carrying it, and improvement has been desired.

It is an object of the present invention to provide the above-mentioned leaf cigarette hanging device with a function of folding it into a form that has a small storage space and can avoid the danger of a long needle.

The fork rack has a large number of long needles arranged side by side along both rods. Further, the rod members of the rack are connected to each other by a connecting mechanism so that they can approach and separate from each other. On the other hand, the receiving rack is provided with receiving portions along both rods, and is configured to receive the distal end portion of the long needle of the fork-equipped rack. Further, connecting tools for connecting both racks are foldably attached and supported at both ends of the receiving rack.

On the receiving rack, leaf cigarettes are arranged and bundled in a separated state, the long needle of the rack with a fork is inserted into the bundle of leaf cigarettes, and the tip of the long needle is inserted into the receiving portion of the rack to receive. At the same time, both ends of both racks are connected by the connecting tools at both ends of the receiving rack. As a result, the bundle of leaf cigarettes is sandwiched between both racks, and the rows of long needles arranged in parallel with each other in two rows are stabbed and held so that the leaf cigarettes do not fall out one by one.

When storing the hanging device, the rack with a fork is folded into a substantially comb shape in the width direction by operating the connecting mechanism to bring the two rods close to each other. Further, the receiving rack is inserted between the rows of long needles of the rack with a fork folded by folding the connecting tools at both ends and folding as described above. As a result, the suspending tool is folded into a thickness of about three rods, and the tips of both long needle rows can be accommodated within the width of the receiving rack.
