DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a plan view schematically showing a hay and grass seedling cassette packing machine, in which a supply table 9 is provided on the left side of the supply section at the top of the machine and a discharge table 10 is provided on the right side of the machine. The root portion 1a side of the rush seedling 1 and the foliage portion 1b are provided in the supply section.
Recess 1 where the tip side can be placed and transported
1, the root side conveyor belt 13 having both projections 12 and 12 and the foliage end side conveyor belt 14 are arranged in parallel, and are sandwiched and conveyed from above the middle portions of the both conveyor belts 13 and 14 to the right side of the machine body. Belts 15 and 16 are respectively extended, and a pair of upper and lower disc blades 17a and 17b are axially mounted on the front side of the intermediate portions of the two conveyor belts 13 and 14, respectively, and the tip ends of the leaves are cut by the disc blades. As shown in FIG. 12, the posture can be corrected by catching on the root side end of the leading end of the foliage 1ba on the front side of the intermediate part of the two conveyor belts 14 and 16 for conveying the part 1ba as shown in FIG. Resistance rod 1
8 is installed, and both transfer belts 19a and 19b capable of holding and transporting the foliage portion 1b of the hay plant 1 from the terminal side of the transfer belt 13 to the lower rear part of the machine are installed obliquely. The conveyor belt 19 is provided on the lower rear side.
It is equipped with both carry-out belts 20a, 20b that can be carried by holding the foliage part 1b of the rush seedling 1 inherited from a, 19b.

A cassette carriage 6 is movably provided above a rail 22 extending from the lower side of the support plate 21 below the two carry-out belts 20a and 20b to the left side of the machine body. A cassette 2 is removably mounted on the upper side, and when the rush seedlings 1 sent out by the two carry-out belts 20a and 20b fall into the cassette 2, they can be packed by the pressing body 23 and the fulcrum shaft 24
The seedling aligning plate 25, which rotates around the center and moves up and down, enables the seedlings to be packed while being pressed so that they do not float up, and the rush seedlings 1 can be packed in a cassette while being transported as shown by the arrow A in FIG. To configure.

An opening / closing lid having a hole 4 on the lateral side is provided at the other end of the cassette 2 which can be detachably mounted above the cassette carriage 6 and can be pressed by a pressing metal fitting 26. 3 is pivotally attached via a hinge 27, and can be pivoted to one lateral side in the upper part of the cassette 2 by a lever 28 on one end side so as to be fitted into the hole 4 of the opening / closing lid 3 and engaged. A cassette operating rod 5 having a rod tip portion 5a that can be fitted is mounted on the shaft, and the bottom surface of the other end side of the cassette carriage 6 can be fitted into the hole portion 4 of the opening / closing lid 3. The lower end of the supporting rod 7 extending upward in an arcuate shape in a side view is fixed by a stopper 29, and the end of the supporting rod 7 has a lateral width W narrower than the lateral width W ₁ of the rod tip 5a.
A ₂ key the rod holder 8 the front can fit in the rod end portion 5a, the insertion portion 8a of the rod holder 8 the front of the rod end portion 5a is able to fit, 9 and As shown in FIG. 11, the tip end side is widened and opened in a lateral V shape when viewed from the side, and the upper portion 8aa and the lower portion 8ab of the fitting portion 8a are formed as shown in FIG. It is formed by forming a curved surface whose radius is steeper than the upper and lower curved surfaces of the portion 5a.

A rack 30 extending in the longitudinal direction of the rail 22 is erected inside the rail 22, and the rack 30 is erected inside the rail 22 by being connected to brackets 31 vertically extending from both lateral sides of the cassette carriage 6. A horizontal shaft roller 33, 33 and a vertical shaft roller 34, 34 are mounted on the support frame 32, and a pinion 36 meshing with the rack 30 from below is mounted on a support base 35 fixed to the support frame 32. Hang the shaft,
A compression spring 37 is elastically pressed against the pinion shaft 36a so that the pinion 36 is braked.

Therefore, the cassette 2 is moved to the cassette carriage 6
When attached to, the rod tip portion 5a fitted into the hole portion 4 of the closed opening / closing lid 3 as shown by a phantom line in FIG.
When the cassette 2 is rotated and locked to be closed, and the cassette 2 is placed on the cassette carriage 6 and pressed by the pressing metal fitting 26, the front portion of the rod tip portion 5a is inserted into the fitting portion 8a of the rod holder 8. Then, the cassette operating rod 5 can be held by the rod holder 8 and the opening / closing lid 3
5 is rotated about the hinge 27 and opened, the hole 4 slides on the rod tip 5a, the rod holder 8, and the support rod 7,
Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the opening / closing lid 3 can be opened on the bottom surface of the cassette carriage 6, and the rush seedlings 1 can be packed in the cassette 2.

When the cassette 2 and the cassette carriage 6 move on the rail 22 and the cassette 2 is removed, the opening / closing lid 3 is closed while being rotated around the hinge 27.
It is possible to remove the rod tip portion 5a from the rod holder 8 and engage the hole portion 4 while rotating the rod holder 8 to keep the opening / closing lid 3 in the closed state.

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, the cassette 2 in which the open / close lid 3 is engaged with the rod tip portion 5a of the cassette operating rod 5 to be in the closed state is placed on the cassette carriage 6, and the rod tip portion is provided. When the front portion of 5a is fitted and attached to the rod holder 8 and then the opening / closing lid 3 is opened to the inner bottom surface side of the cassette carriage 6, the rod holder 8 is narrower than the lateral width W ₁ of the rod tip portion 5a. Therefore, the rear portion 4 of the opening / closing lid 3 can be smoothly opened from the rod tip portion 5a side to the rod holder 8 and the supporting rod 7 without being caught, and also when closing the same. Since it can be smoothly passed through and closed, the operability when attaching / detaching the cassette 2 to / from the cassette carriage 6 can be further improved, and a simple structure is preferably realized. It has the advantage that can.

Also, the fitting portion 8a of the rod holder 8 into which the front portion of the rod tip portion 5a is fitted is lateral V when viewed from the side.
When it is shaped like a letter so that the tip side is widened and opened,
Since the front portion of the rod tip portion 5a can be easily fitted into the open side of the rod holder 8, the operability when the cassette 2 is attached to the cassette carriage 6 can be further improved, and the cassette Even if the length of the operating rod 5 varies, it can be received by the fitting portion 8a, so that the cassette operating rod 5 can be effectively held by the rod holder 8.
