A detailed side view of the configuration of the seed discharge port (seeding tube) T1 is shown in FIG. 6 (a), and an arrow view from the direction of arrow A in FIG. 6 (a) is shown in FIG. 6 (b).
A seed discharge port T <b> 1 is provided at the lower end of the transfer pipe 7. The seed discharge port T1 surrounds the discharge channel outlet 51 having a U-shaped horizontal cross section connected to the lower end of the transfer pipe 7 and the discharge channel outlet 51, and has an upper wall surface, a lower wall surface, and a rear wall surface. It is composed of a discharge casing (frame body) 52 having no horizontal section “U” shape. Further, the discharge flow path outlet 51 opens along the inner wall surface of the discharge casing (frame body) 52 at a position that does not reach the bottom surface of the discharge casing (frame body) 52.

The discharge casing (frame body) 52 has a triangular member 53 attached to the front side of the front wall surface in a side view and a top view, respectively. 3 is constituted.
While the sowing machine is moving forward in the field, it is possible to make a groove in the field by the groover 3 and sow seeds sprayed from the discharge channel outlet 51 immediately after the created groove.

  The seed discharge port T1 has a discharge channel outlet 51 having a U-shaped cross section attached in contact with the front wall surface of the discharge housing (frame body) 52 and the inner wall surfaces of the left and right side wall surfaces. The lower end of the transfer pipe 7 is connected to the top of the discharge channel outlet 51. Then, the seeds are blown out along the inner wall surface of the casing (frame body) 52 via the discharge channel outlet 51 having a “U” -shaped cross section from the transfer pipe 7 and surrounded by the discharge casing (frame body) 52. It is sprayed toward the farm scene in the space.

  Further, the pressure air from the tip of the air pipe 55 supported on the outside of the transfer pipe 7 is a cross-sectional area in the direction crossing the discharge flow of the powder blown out from the discharge flow channel outlet 51 (projection of transfer of the powder powder). The area is blown out into a space surrounded by a discharge casing (frame body) 52 having a cross-sectional area in a direction crossing a wider discharge flow (area deviating from the transfer projection area).

  Therefore, the pressure air from the air pipe 55 prevents the soil and powder (seed) from adhering to the inner wall surface of the discharge housing (frame) 52, and the soil and powder at the seed discharge port T1. In addition to preventing clogging of (seed), there is an advantage that the seeding accuracy can be maintained at the time of seeding of seeds, because the pressurized air is not directly applied to the seeds that are fed out.

  Moreover, the side view of FIG. 7 is a seed discharge port portion T1 of another embodiment different from FIG. 6 showing the arrangement relationship among the seed tank 5, the feeding device 6, the transfer pipe 7, and the groove producing device 3. In the configuration shown in FIG. 7, seeds fed from the seed tank 5 are conveyed to the tip of the transfer pipe 7 by the seed blower 8 (FIG. 1). It is the structure which sprays a seed on the farm field from the inside of the grooving device 3 with the airflow from the air piping 55 arrange | positioned at a part.

  The grooving device 3 has a discharge casing (frame body) 52 having a horizontal section “U” shape without an upper wall surface, a lower wall surface, and a rear wall surface, and a transfer pipe 7 at the top of the discharge casing (frame body) 52. The lower ends of the are arranged at intervals.

A discharge housing (frame body) 52 is attached to the groove forming device 3, and a triangular member 53 is attached to the front side of the front wall surface in a side view and a top view, respectively. The grooving device 3 is constituted by the above.
While the seeder is moving forward in the field, a groove is formed in the field by the grooving device 3, and seeds sprayed by the pressure air from the air pipe 55 are sown from the tip of the transfer pipe 7 immediately after the created groove. it can.

  Therefore, the pressure air prevents the soil and powder (seed) from adhering to the inner wall surface of the discharge housing (frame) 52, and the soil and powder (seed) are clogged at the seed discharge port T1. In addition, the pressure wind does not directly hit the seeds that are fed out, so that there is an advantage that the seeding accuracy can be maintained when seeding the seeds.

FIG. 8 includes a discharge casing (frame body) 52 having a horizontal section “U” shape without an upper wall surface, a lower wall surface, and a rear wall surface, and a space is provided at the top of the discharge casing (frame body) 52. The lower end of the transfer pipe 7 where the seeds fall is disposed, and an air pipe 55 for supplying air from the blower 8 is attached to the lower end of the transfer pipe 7.
This configuration is different from the configuration shown in FIG. 7 in that the air pipe 55 is arranged so that the air blown from the air pipe 55 directly hits the seeds falling from the transfer pipe 7. In this case, the seeds falling from the transfer pipe 7 are disturbed by the air, so that the seeds are disseminated in the field close to the streak.

A powder body discharge port portion T1 of another embodiment shown in the rear view of FIG. 9 has a body frame 57 that supports the front end portion of the transfer pipe 7 and a short cylindrical discharge flow channel outlet at the front end portion of the transfer pipe 7. 51 connects, which is provided below the discharge flow channel outlet 51, spaced below the powder or granular material discharge port 51, there is no rear wall surface and the upper wall and the lower wall surface housing (frame A discharge casing (frame body) 52 of the groove producing device 3 made of a body is disposed.
