Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[Field of Industrial Application] [0001] The present invention provides a seedling box by installing rice planting seedlings grown in a seedling box on a shelf of a container to be used for carrying on a truck or the like in advance. A device that can be easily pulled out.

[Prior Art] With the widespread use of rice transplanting machines, seedling raising boxes have come to be used for making seedlings suitable for the machines, and along with this, various containers for transporting seedling boxes on trucks have been developed. It was Generally, the shelves on which the seedling boxes are placed are rail-shaped, and four rows of seedling boxes are placed horizontally on a single row of shelves, which is commonly known as a flat structure with several rows and stages. There is a stacking type. In addition, there is also a so-called inclined type of diagonal vertical insertion structure from both sides, there is no structure as a shelf to stack on top, and there is also a type that does not fall down by vertically inserting a seedling box from top to bottom. In each of the containers installed on the truck, the range in which the seedling box could be taken out was within a reachable half of the depth, and the other half was a troublesome work of turning to the opposite side and lowering it. The solution is to install a container with a rotating device on the truck, but because the weight of soil and seedlings containing water and the structure of the turntable must be close to square, the truck It is not possible to use the full width of the cargo bed, and naturally the shape of the container becomes sturdy and the structure extends upward when loading a large amount. Therefore, a container with a turntable device is expensive because it must have a structure that can withstand safety problems such as falling over in the structure and heavy objects.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] There are the following problems in taking out a seedling box from a shelf of a general flat-stack type container. a When I try to take a seedling box in a container, it is too far to reach. b To take out the whole seedling box, you have to turn to the other side. c It would be expensive to add a rotating device to the container. It is intended to solve the above problems and provide a simple and inexpensive container seedling box withdrawing device.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve this object, the present invention has the following configuration. That is, in a container shelf in which four or more seedling boxes are arranged side by side in one row as shown in FIG. 7, when the seedling boxes are loaded, the handle 3 is located below the seedling boxes and cannot be seen. When the sheets are taken out, the hidden handle 3 appears, and by pulling the handle 3, the integrated receiver 2 having the sliding sides 4 at both ends, which is connected by the connecting portion 1, receives the remaining seedling box and receives the rail L. Slide so that you can pull it toward you.

[First Embodiment] A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The seedling box drawing device shown in FIG. 1 does not specify a material such as an iron plate or a plastic, but is composed of a shelf and a single plate-like member having a width that crochets on the shelf. A handle 3 whose one end forms a receiving side 2 bent upward, and the other end cuts off a corner and is bent downward.
Is formed. Although not shown, the handle 3 may be formed by punching a hole into which the hand can be inserted without bending it downward. The connecting portion 1 has a shape close to a square with a length in which two seedling boxes are arranged side by side and a length including the handle 3, but if two or more large containers become widespread in the future, two or more pieces will be arranged. It can be a rectangular shape. When the handle 3 is pulled toward you, the friction with the rail L is lessened if the handle 3 is pulled up and pulled up slightly. Therefore, the sliding side 4 in this case refers to the lower side of the receiver 2 which is always in contact with the rail L. If the above-mentioned drawer device is placed on several places on the upper shelf where it is difficult to take out the shelf, or if it is placed on the entire shelf in advance, all the seedling boxes can be easily pulled out from one side of the truck bed.

[Second Embodiment] The second embodiment shown in FIG.
One side is provided with a shelf and a pipe-shaped receiving tool 2 having a crotch width on the shelf, and the other side is provided with a bar-shaped handle 3 having substantially the same length and arranged substantially parallel to each other. They are connected by a rod-shaped connecting portion 1 at a position. It should be noted that the materials and shapes of the receiving tool 2, the handle 3, and the connecting portion 1 are not concerned at all, but particularly regarding the receiving side 2,
If it is a round or square pipe shape with an appropriate thickness that does not come off even if you pull it by hitting the seedling box, it will be the easiest to work on, but to reduce the weight, use a thin member that does not bend Alternatively, a member having an appropriate shape having strength and strength for pulling the seedling box as shown in FIG. 3 may be used. If the above drawer device is placed on some or all of the shelves in advance, all the seedling boxes can be pulled out from one side of the truck carrier.

[Third Embodiment] The third embodiment shown in FIG.
The handle 3 is disposed on the lower side of the rail L, and the handle 3 can be held at a substantially central position of the lower portion of the rail L.
A letter-shaped stopper 5 is provided. The position of the stopper 5 is preferably a position where the slide side 4 stops when the slide side 4 does not come off the rail L while holding the handle 3. There is also a case where the seedling box pull-out device is used in the opposite direction.
A letter shape or an inverted T shape may be attached to the substantially central portion.
Furthermore, the stopper 5 is effective on one side of the shelf, but it is more secure if it is attached on both sides. When the handle 3 of the above device is pulled, it is free from the stopper 5 as shown in FIG. 5, so that it can move up and down around the slide edge 4 and is short when pulling out the seedling box on the upper shelf. It can be pulled out easily by people, and when pulling out the last seedling box, it is easy to pull out without protruding too much outside the truck. Further, since the receiving tool 2 is interlocked with the stopper 5, it does not come off the shelf and prevents the seedling box from falling off during transportation. In particular, the substantially L-shaped stopper 5 preferably has a narrowed shape as shown in FIG.

[Fourth Embodiment] The fourth embodiment shown in FIG.
The receiving tool 2 and the handle 3 are connected by the left and right connecting portions 1,
It is held by a slidable stopper 5. The stopper 5 may be a suitable member such as a round pipe if it matches the cross-sectional shape of the connecting portion 1, that is, if it is round,
In consideration of attachment / detachment, it is preferable to use a structure that can be disassembled, or one in which a substantially U-shaped member is laid down and attached to the lower surface of the rails L on both sides. The above device cannot be pulled out to the last seedling box, but it can be pulled out within a reach. Further, after the seedling box is taken out, it is not necessary to return it to its original position because the handle 3 is not lowered as in the fourth embodiment.

[Fifth Embodiment] The fifth embodiment shown in FIG.
The slide sides 4 at both ends integrated with the receiving member 2 are constituted by rollers 6 which can rotate about an axis. It is also possible to use a round shaft at both ends of the receiving member 2 and to insert and rotate a roller 6 such as a plastink having play with the shaft.
However, if the roller 6 is a bearing or the like, the roller 6 will move more smoothly, so it will be expensive. When the above device is used, there is no catch on the rail L, so that the seedling box can be pulled out smoothly.

[Advantages of the Invention] By placing the seedling box pulling-out device according to the present invention in advance on several or all of the hard-to-reach places on the upper shelf of the container placed on a truck or the like, It is possible to pull out the front two sheets from one side, and the back two sheets that cannot be reached by pulling the handle 3 forward. b Therefore, unlike the prior art, it is not necessary to go to the opposite side of the truck and take out the seedling box. c. Even if the container is not expensive and unstable and has a structure to be raised, it is inexpensive and the length to be taken out can be selected, or the whole seedling box can be taken out from one side.
