Description

Soil feeder for seedling box seeder

The present invention relates to a fine adjustment of a feeding belt and a tension / relaxation switching mechanism attached to a floor soil supply device and a soil covering supply device in a seedling box seeder.

Conventionally, in the soil supply device of a seedling box seeding machine, the technology relating to the adjustment mechanism of the feeding belt is publicly known. For example, it is like the technique described in Patent Document 1. In a conventional soil feeding device for a seedling box seeder, the feeding belt of the soil feeding device is adjustable by a tension mechanism, and the tension mechanism is provided with a screw shaft for the support plate portion of the frame side plate. The nut is screwed onto the screw shaft and the nut of the tension mechanism arranged at the left and right positions is rotated to move the driven shaft of the driven roller back and forth against the tension of the feeding belt to adjust the tension. The mechanism was configured.

That is, in the seedling box seeding machine described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-116128 of Patent Document 1, the tension of the feeding belt of the soil supply device can be adjusted, but the adjustment work of the feeding belt is performed by the operator. This has to be done by rotating the left and right nuts, and the fine adjustment and the tension / relaxation switching operation are troublesome.

Also, because the tensioning mechanism is fixed by the nut, once the feeding belt is adjusted, the soil feeding belt remains in tension when not in use, i.e. when stored in a warehouse, when the seedling box is out of seeding time. Thus, there is a problem that the durability of the feeding belt is lowered by continuing the tension state of the belt for a long time. The tension mechanism of the feeding belt is on the left and right sides of the soil feeding belt, and the tension of the soil feeding belt must be adjusted by adjusting the left and right positions, so there is no mark for knowing the adjustment position, and positioning is troublesome. It was.

In the conventional technology, it is possible to adjust the tension of the soil feeding belt, but fine adjustment and switching between tension and relaxation must be performed by rotating the two nuts on the left and right, which is troublesome. There was a problem. In addition, screw shafts are provided on the left and right sides of the soil supply device, and it is necessary to adjust both the left and right sides. The present invention intends to eliminate such problems.
