  In the pot seedling transport shelf in Patent Document 3, a frame constituting a transport shelf composed of an outer frame, an inner frame and the like is provided in advance on the transport vehicle, and a rice seedling shelf is provided at an angle inside the frame. Each pot seedling box is loaded and transported. Many seedling boxes can be transported in order to transport as many pot seedling boxes as there are rice seedling shelves. However, it is necessary to install a frame to mount rice seedling racks on the transport vehicle, and Since a pot seedling box is mounted on the seedling shelf in a flat shape, there is a drawback that traveling wind hits the pot seedling while the transport vehicle is traveling, and the seedling itself is damaged.

In seedling box carrying basket of Patent Document 4, the transport from nursery location to transport vehicles to allow carrying a plurality at a time, also enables the state, yet mounted viewing stage product mounted on the transport car for transportation vehicles but which has the drawback of subjecting the stability, the seedling box in a plane in the transport cage is inserted, it thereby causing a reduction in the quality of seedlings traveling wind during travel of the carrier vehicle by receiving the seedlings themselves It becomes.

In addition, the pot seedling box carrier described in Patent Document 5 is configured so that the planted pot seedling box can be set while being bent inward and sandwiched between the arms or between the arm and the column. Therefore, there is an advantage that the planted pot seedling box is bent inward so that it is less affected by the driving wind when running on a transport vehicle, but the bottom of the seedling box is inserted downward since that is only being weak in the force applied from the vertical direction, the structure of the vehicles themselves I need to take apart that each seedling box between not touch each to seedling box is not deformed be greater than seedling box There is a need to This means that it is difficult to transport a carrier with a planted pot seedling box from the nursery to the transporting vehicle alone and to mount it on the transporting vehicle. There is no change in the occupancy rate of the loading platform when taking an empty transporter after it has been taken home, or it requires a large storage area when not in use, and when a seedling box is not mounted on this transporter or It is hard to say that the surname at the time of storage is good.

Therefore, in the present invention, a plurality of pot seedling boxes can be curved on the inner surface from one pot seedling nursery to be carried and loaded on the transport vehicle in that state, and the pot seedling box is curved. Since the pot seedling box itself is structured with strength against the force applied in the vertical direction from above with the surface as the bottom surface, it is possible to stack multiple stages of transporting equipment on the transport vehicle, from seedlings to rice planting fields A large number of pot seedling boxes can be transported with a single transport, and the seedlings themselves are prevented from receiving the wind during traveling of the transport vehicle by curving the grown seedlings inward and bringing the seedlings into close contact with each other. A flexible pot seedling box transport device is provided.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention proposes a transport device for a flexible pot seedling box according to claims 1 to 3 .

That is, the transport device for a flexible pot seedling box according to claim 1 is a pot seedling box that transports a flexible pot seedling box that has been nurtured before seeding rice seeds and transplanting them to a paddy field . a transporter, in the horizontal flexibility of the seedlings box seedling in contact with one side of the U shape is adhered seedlings between the surface of the growing surface grown as U-shaped by bending the inner surface direction independence An L-shaped transport device comprising a vertical plate provided so as to contact the surface and both ends of the vertical seedling box, and the vertical plate of the transport device is in contact with the back surface of the pot seedling box, A back plate for preventing book opening is provided, and at the tip of the back plate, a restriction plate that is parallel to a vertical plate for restricting horizontal movement of the pot seedling box and the transporting device is provided. It is.

Transporter flexible seedlings box according to claim 2, wherein, in the carrier device of the flexible pot seedling box as claimed in claim 1, wherein the vertical plate of the carrying device is provided with a plurality of back plates having a restricting plate , it is characterized in that which enables loading a plurality of seedlings box in parallel.

The carrying device of the flexible pot seedling box as claimed in claim 3, wherein, in the carrier device of the flexible pot seedling box as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the vertical plate of the transport device, a plurality of back plates having a restricting plate provided, it is characterized in that which enables loading a plurality of seedlings box in parallel.

In the loading method of the flexible pot seedling box and its transport device according to the present invention, the surface of the growing surface of the flexible pot seedling box is curved in the inner surface direction so that the seedlings are brought into close contact with each other to form a curved surface. since transporting an became one of the sides of the seedling box was installed free-standing downward and the traveling wind generated by the transportation means between the nursery area until planting places to travel to receive the seedlings themselves And has the effect of preventing weakening of rice.

In addition, the flexible pot seedling box from the nursery to the carrying device is curved in the inner surface direction by bringing the surface of the growing surface into a U shape and the seedlings are brought into close contact with each other. The pot seedling box itself is loaded and loaded using the repulsive force of returning to a flat plate shape, so it is easy to attach and detach . In addition, the pot seedling box is unlikely to fall off if no external force is applied.

  In addition, since it is possible to attach a plurality of flexible pot seedling boxes to this transporter and can be mounted on the transporting means or transporting vehicle in that state, the transporting time of the seedling box can be shortened. Not to mention, once the pot seedling box is mounted on the transporter, it will not change the shape of the pot seedling until it reaches the field where the state is planted and the pot seedling box is removed from the transporter. It also has the effect of reducing the phenomenon of the seedling itself jumping out of the seedling room of the box.

In particular, the seedling box is bent and mounted on the transporter, and the seedling box itself has strength against vertical force, and the transporter is stacked on the seedling box so that it can be stepped. Since a large number of flexible pot seedling boxes can be carried at one time , and the curved surface of the U-shaped pot seedling box serves as the installation surface of the carrier, the curved surface is widely used as the bottom surface of the carrier. Moreover, since there is no unevenness | corrugation, it has the effect that it becomes possible to pile up an upper transporter stably.

  Furthermore, after unloading from the transporter in the field where the pot seedling box is planted or during periods when the transporter is not used, each transporter can be stacked and stored in the front-rear direction, so there is no need for storage space. It also has advantages.

  The method for loading a flexible pot seedling box and its carrying device according to the present invention is a pot in a state where the pot seedling 3 grows from 5 leaves to 6 leaves and is called an adult seedling in the nursery 2 and can be transplanted to paddy fields. The present invention relates to a method for loading the pot seedling box 1 in which the seedling 3 is vegetated and its transporting device.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the pot seedling box 1 has a plurality of seedling rooms 4 in which pot seedlings 3 are grown. The pot seedling box 1 has excellent flexibility in the side direction of the edge part 5, it is easy to curve the edge part 5 into a U shape, and the growing surface on which the pot seedling 3 of the pot seedling box 1 is growing 6 is curved in a U shape so as to be inside, and the pot seedlings 3 are brought into close contact with each other (FIG. 2).

  Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the stacking is performed so that one side surface of the edge portion 5 of the pot seedling box 1 having a U-shaped curved surface faces downward and is brought into close contact with the plane of the transport means or the plane of the transport tool. It is. In addition, when both sides of the edge portion 7 of the pot seedling box 1 are in contact with a vertical surface having an angle of 90 degrees with respect to the plane of the transport means or transporter, the stable loading is possible. It becomes a reference surface when arranging a plurality of pot seedling boxes 1 curved in parallel.

  The pot seedling box 1 curved into a U shape is subjected to a repulsive force to return from the U shape to a flat plate shape. The pot seedling box 1 does not have to be opened by pressing from both sides.

The pot seedling box 1 is formed from the nursery 2 by overlapping the pot seedlings 3 so that each of the pot seedlings 3 is in close contact with the edge 5 as a U-shaped curved surface in the direction in which the growth surface 6 on which the pot seedlings 3 grow is directed inward. Since the pot seedling 3 does not directly receive the traveling wind when mounted on the loading platform of a vehicle or the like as a means of transportation to the planting field, it is possible to prevent the weakening of the rice that occurs when the rice leaves constantly rub against each other. Is. Further, since one side surface of the edge portion 5 that is a U-shaped curved surface is used as a bottom surface and is self-supporting on the plane of the transport means or transporter, even if the pot seedling box 1 itself receives a load applied from the vertical direction. Even if the pot seedling boxes 1 are stacked without deformation, the lower pot seedling box 1 itself can support the weight of the pot seedling box 1 with the upper pot seedling 3 and has a U shape of the seedling box. Since the upper pot seedling box 1 can be received on a wide flat surface without any level difference, there is also an advantage that a plurality of stages can be stably performed.

  Reference numeral 8 in FIG. 4 is a carrying device for a flexible pot seedling box. The carrier 8 is characterized by an L-shaped configuration comprising a horizontal self-standing surface 9 and a vertical plate 10 having an angle of about 90 degrees with the self-standing surface 9. The vertical plate 10 is provided with a plurality of back plates 11 in the vertical direction at substantially equal intervals toward the self-standing surface 9. The back plate 11 may have an upper end that is the same height as the vertical plate 10 and a lower end that is in contact with the self-supporting surface 9 and that is joined to the self-supporting surface 9. A regulating plate 12 is attached to the front end of the back plate 11 so as to be parallel to the vertical plate 10. The restricting plate 12 is also attached to be elongated in the vertical direction, and the upper end thereof is the same height as the vertical plate 10, and the lower end is provided with a distance that does not contact the self-standing surface 9.

  Further, a handle portion 13 is provided at the upper end of the vertical plate 10 in the direction facing the self-standing surface 9 over substantially the entire length of the vertical plate 10. This handle portion 13 is preferably a square pipe or a steel material called C-shaped steel, and through holes 14 are provided at both ends of the handle portion 13 so that a rod-shaped fixing material can be inserted from above through the handle portion 13. It has been.

  The vertical plate 10 is opened in a range that does not reach the back plate 11 in the lateral direction with respect to the center between the back plates 11 and in a range that does not reach the free-standing surface 9 from the substantially lower surface of the handle portion 13 in the vertical direction. The opening surface 15 is provided. On the opening surface 15, a carrier who uses the carrier 8 puts a hand or a finger through the opening 15, grasps the handle portion 13 and holds the carrier 8 stably, and the carrier 8 itself. It is provided for the purpose of reducing the weight.

  Furthermore, the range of the edge part of the planar direction of the self-supporting surface 9 is a range which covers the edge part 5 of the U-shaped curved surface when the pot seedling box 1 is curved and loaded on the transporter as shown in FIG. Good. Moreover, you may provide the opening surface 16 so that it may be located in the approximate center of the curved surface of the pot seedling box 1, and the weight of the conveyance tool 8 can be made lighter by this opening surface 16. FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the edge 5 is curved in a U shape so that the seedling surface 6 of the pot seedling box 1 faces inward, and one side of the curved surface faces downward, It is sandwiched between the seedling chambers 4 in the second row and the third row from the end sides of the edge 7 on both sides so that the bottom surface of the seedling chamber 4 in the second row from the end side of the edge portion 7 is in contact with the back plate 11. The pot seedling box 1 is inserted vertically from above the transport device 8 so that the regulating plate 12 is inserted into the open space, or the U-shaped curve of the edge 5 is temporarily bent many times from the end of the self-standing surface 9. When the operator puts it horizontally and releases the hand, it becomes U-shaped, the bottom surface of the seedling chamber 4 is in close contact with the back plate 11, and the regulation plate 12 enters the space sandwiched between the seedling chamber 4 and the pot The movement of the seedling box 1 from front to back and from side to side is fixed.

  As an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, five curved pot seedling boxes 1 can be stacked in parallel in five rows. Usually, light trucks and small trucks are often used as vehicles for transporting pot seedling boxes. Therefore, when considering the loading platform width of these trucks and the size of the seedling boxes, five rows of carrying devices are good. In addition, in the attachment of the back plate 11 and the restriction plate 12, the restriction plate 12 at both ends of the carrier 8 is L-shaped with the back plate 11, but the other attachment shapes of the back plate 11 and the restriction plate 12 are as follows. It has a T shape. The mounting shape of the back plate 11 and the regulating plate 12 at both ends of the transporting device 8 may be T-shaped, but the entire length of the transporting device 8 is short and is L-shaped in consideration of safety.
