Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention involves loading bacterial groups grown in paper tubes into a transplanter (11).
This relates to a device that divides paper tube bacteria into sizes suitable for being placed on a container or stored in a seedling transport box.

(Prior art) A group of paper tube seedlings is a group of paper tubes assembled in a honeycomb-like IZ pattern in an orderly manner vertically and horizontally, and seedlings are raised by filling soil, sowing, and watering.The nine individual paper tubes are glued together with water-soluble glue. I'm here.

After watering, the water-soluble glue is washed away and separation is easy.

Paper tubes are usually made in consideration of economic efficiency during manufacturing and difficulty in managing seedlings.
For example, in the case of sugar beet seedlings using this method, the weight of one group of paper tube seedlings can reach over 60 kg. If such a group of large paper tube seedlings is loaded directly into a transplanter, the seedling stand must be made larger than necessary, and if transported in a seedling box, a large seedling box is required and one person cannot carry it. Since it is inconvenient that it cannot be transported, it is widely practiced to divide it into desired sizes. The conventional dividing method is to connect two plates with a thread, place a group of paper tube seedlings so that the part to be divided matches the connecting line, and then bend the plate and divide it along the connecting line. I have to.

(Problems to be Solved by the Present Invention) Even with the above method, not only does it require a worker of 2 Å or more to place a group of paper tube seedlings reaching 9 in 60 on the dividing plate. 9 Separation involves simply bending and peeling, but if there are seedlings with entangled roots or entangled leaves, they must be loosened manually after division. If you try to take out the seedlings without loosening them, the tangled seedlings will attract each other and the paper tube seedling group will become scattered, making it impossible to divide the paper tube seedling group into paper tube seedling groups of the desired size. If you try to transplant such seedlings with a transplanter, the divided parts will have unevenness, which will cause plant loss.

(Unfavorable means for solving the problem) The inventor of the present invention solved the above problem and proceeded to create a device that can be divided into desired sizes by one person. As a result, seedlings with entangled roots or entangled leaves gradually become Focusing on the fact that paper tube joints can be separated along horizontal rows without coming apart when pulled apart, a splitting machine was installed in front of a movable member such as a wheel or a bridge that can move along the ground, and the paper to be split was created. A plurality of hawk fixing rods are arranged in horizontal rows according to the size of the tube seedling group, and a large number of hawks are fixed to each of the hawk fixing rods in a perpendicular direction so that the paper tube seedling group can be placed on the soil. , the above-mentioned Hawk fixing rod is of two types, an immovable fixed rod and a movable fixed rod, and the movable Hawk fixing rod is bent by the weight of the paper tube seedling group placed thereon so that it can move laterally. did.

(Function) In the present invention, since the hawk is attached in the forward direction of the wheel, when the tip of the hawk is placed between the paper tube seedling group and the floor surface and the wheel is moved forward, the paper tube seedling group is transferred onto the hawk. It will be done. Next, when you lift the whole thing using the wheels as a fulcrum, the immovable Hawk fixing rod will rise, but the movable Hawk fixing rod that is connected to it will be turned down on the other side due to the weight of the paper tube seedling group, so it will not move as it does with conventional splitting machines. Divide along the connecting line. After division, the movable Hawk fixation rod moves in the diagonal direction due to the weight of the paper tube fungus group, so the entanglement of the roots and one leaf gradually unravels, and finally the whole tree is completely separated.

(Example) The present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, in which a sugar beet bacteria group grown in a paper tube is divided into three parts. FIG. 1 is an overall side view of the dividing machine of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the main parts.
