Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[Field of Industrial Application] [0001] The present invention reduces the floor of a conventional flat-stack type seedling container that is too tall and disassembles it.
It aims to provide a container for seedlings that is easy to assemble.

[Prior Art] In the old days, so-called grown seedlings with grown seedlings were bent by hand while taking seedlings by hand. However, since rice planting machines were developed, seedlings meet the machine specifications. Being made from seedling boxes, many seedling containers have been developed. Flat stacking type that horizontally arranges seedling boxes,
Inclined stack type, which is often seen when carrying colas, etc.
Recently, there are aluminum products that are lighter weight and those that are easy to disassemble and assemble. However, in the case of the flat stack type, since the spacing between the shelves is wide so as not to bend the seedlings, the height is high, and it is difficult to take out the seedling box in the upper part of the container placed on a light truck etc. I've been struggling with things like pushing it out. After the rice planting is finished, many containers are difficult to disassemble, so they are exposed to the rain or take a large space in the warehouse to become an obstacle.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In consideration of the present situation, the present invention makes it possible for even a short person to take out the upper seedling box to make the seedling as short as possible without damaging the seedlings. However, it aims to provide a seedling container that can be easily disassembled and assembled in a short time.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the object, the present invention has the following structure. That is, the two pedestals 1 and the pedestals 1 are arranged in parallel, and one or a plurality of square pipe column supports 2 are provided at equal intervals between them at their respective ends or between them. Vertical pipe 3 with a square pipe that fits in
Further, on the pillar 3, a plurality of rails 4 each having a substantially L-shaped cross section are horizontally connected to each other at substantially equal intervals within 10 cm to 11 cm to form a shelf T1 and a shelf T2, and the pillar 3 of the shelf is provided with two pedestals. 1. One or a plurality of square pipe pillar receivers 2 which are fitted to the pillar support 2 and which are connected to the top of the shelf are provided below the two connecting rods 5 which are fitted to the pillars 3 at both ends or at equal intervals. , The shelves are connected to each other by fitting the pillars 3 from above, and the upper and lower connecting rods 5 of the container main body, the pedestal 1 and the pillars 3 are fixed by a snap lock P.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS.
This will be described with reference to FIG. First, the base of the container 2
The pedestal 1 and the pedestal 1 made of square pipes are arranged in parallel, and the column pipe supports 2 of the width for arranging the longer ones of the seedling boxes are provided upward at the respective ends and the center thereof. However, in the case of containers lined up in several rows, the column supports 2 are naturally increased at equal intervals. The shelf connects two parallel pillars 3 and pillars 3 with a plurality of rails 4 each having an L-shaped cross section horizontally at a substantially equal interval.
And the rack spacing of the rail 4 is specified as 10 cm to 11 cm. Most of the current mechanical planting is for planting seedlings of 14 to 15 centimeters, including a medium seedling, that is, a box, so the leaves are bent considerably and packed in a container, but when they are pulled out from the container, they straighten straight and there is a problem. No, but if the distance is less than 10 cm, the stem will bend and there is a risk of breaking. That is, considering the length of the seedlings, 1 cm from 10 cm to 11 cm is a safe shelf interval where the stems of the medium seedlings are not broken, and is an allowable range for producing a container having a short height. The columns T of the shelf T1, the shelf T1 and the shelf T2 having the above intervals are fitted into the column receiver 2. Although the square pipe of the column receiver 2 is thicker than the column 3 in FIG. 2, it may be reversed. The upper part of the shelf is connected by two connecting rods 5,
The column receivers 2 facing downward are provided at both ends and in the center, and are inserted into the shelf T1, the shelf T2, and the shelf T1. Further, each corner of the container is fixed with a snap lock P. That is, the hooks P1 are attached to both ends of the two receiving bases 1 and the two connecting rods 5, and the hooks P1 are provided at the upper and lower two places of each pillar 3 of the shelf T1.
An object consisting of a hook P1 hooked on 1 and a hook P2 linked by a lever P3 is attached to substantially the upper and lower ends of the column 3. Although the snap lock P is costly, it is possible to fix the assembly of the container and the container not only at each corner but also for each pillar 3 or if a large lock is used, which is comparable to bolting. However, there is a snap lock P in which the hook P2 can be adjusted in length with the hook P1 by a bolt or a spring, which is also advantageous in terms of mounting.

[Advantages of the Invention] When the seedling container according to the present invention has a shelf interval of, for example, 10 cm and has 10 steps, the height is within 1 meter. Therefore, the container should be placed on a light truck or the like. Even now, you can reach the upper level enough, and you do not have to use a stick etc. to lower it like before. In addition, even if the seedlings are bent and carried, they do not have to worry if they are taken out of the container and the stems will not be broken and will naturally recover. On the other hand, when assembling and disassembling, since the square pipes are inserted into the square pipes and the two are pulled strongly with the snap lock P, they can be firmly fixed to the extent that they are not displaced or rotated and are comparable to bolting, and the snap lock P must be released. Can be easily disassembled.
