【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、引抜移送装置で移送中の作物体は、首揃移送装置で引継ぎ移送中に首揃えして、首揃え済み作物体の葉部の所定位置が葉切断装置で切断され、葉切断済み作物体を残葉切断移送装置で受け、葉切断済み作物体に長い葉が残っていると、該残葉切断移送装置で切断しながら一旦前方部へ移送すべく配設した技術であり、作物収穫機の作物移送装置として利用できる。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
作物体は根菜類であり、この根菜類が、例えば、人参であったとすると、この人参の収穫作業は、圃場の畦部へ植付けた人参は、作物収穫機の走行車両を圃場を走行させて、この走行車両の一方側の横外側の前後方向に前部より、順次設けた左右両側の引起装置で人参の葉部が引起され、各掘起装置で人参の植付畦が掘起(土がほぐされ)され、掘起された人参は、左右両側の引抜移送装置間で人参の葉部が挟持され、後方上部へ挟持移送中に移送始端部側で人参は引抜きされ、後方上部へ移送され、この挟持移送中に左右両側の首揃移送装置間へ引継ぎされ、挟持移送されながら人参は首揃えされ、首揃え済み人参は、左右両側のタッピング移送装置間へ引継ぎされ、挟持移送中に人参の葉部の所定位置は、左右両側の葉切断装置で切断される。
【0003】
葉部切断済み人参は、各タッピング移送装置から落下して、下側で右横側へ向けて移送すべく設けた残葉切断移送装置へ供給され、葉部切断済み人参に長い葉が残っていると、この長い残葉のある人参の残葉は、この残葉切断移送装置の移送ベルトと、ローラとの間へ繰込みされて、残葉は、引きちぎられる。残葉切断済み人参と、残葉がついていなかった人参とは、これら移送ベルトと、ローラとにより、この残葉切断移送装置の後側で右横側へ向けて移送する選別移送コンベア上へ供給され、この選別移送コンベアで移送中に二股形状の人参、及び傷の付いた人参等の不良品の人参は、選別作業者によって、目視選別されて、抜取りされ、圃場へ捨てられる。又、良品の人参は、選別移送コンベアで移送され、移送終端部から収容箱内へ供給される。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
タッピング移送装置から葉部の所定位置が切断された人参を受けて、長い葉が残っていると、この長い残葉を切断する残葉切断移送装置の後側には、残葉切断済み人参を受けて、移送中に不良品の人参を選別作業者によって、目視選別する選別移送コンベアを設けていることにより、作物収穫機の全長が長くなり、このために、操作性が悪くなったり、又、コストアップになったり、更に人参を目視選別する選別作業者は、常に作物収穫機の後側にいて、歩きながら目視選別することにより、疲労が大きいことがあったが、この発明により、これらの問題点を解決しようとするものである。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
このために、この発明は、操縦席9を備えた走行車両2の一方側の横側には、掘起した作物体(イ)を後方上部へ挟持移送しながら圃場から引抜きする左右両側の引抜移送装置28,28から作物体(イ)を引継ぎ後方へ挟持移送中に首揃えする首揃移送装置33,33と、首揃え済み作物体(イ)をタッピング移送装置34,34で後方へ挟持移送中に葉部の所定位置を切断する葉切断装置12,12と、葉切断装置12の下側で左右方向に設けられ、かつ葉切断済み作物体(イ)を受けて作物体(イ)に長い葉が残っているとこの残葉を切断処理しながら前方へ移送する残葉切断移送装置14と、該残葉切断移送装置14で残葉処理済みの作物体(イ)を右横方向へ向けて移送する引継移送装置13と、該引継移送装置13で移送された残葉処理済みの作物体(イ)の供給を受けて後方に向けて移送する選別移送コンベア11と、該選別移送コンベア11の右外側にあって不良作物を目視選別する選別作業者(A)が着座する補助操縦席9aと、選別移送コンベア11の移送終端側にあって選別移送コンベア11で移送された残葉処理済みの作物体(イ)を収容する収容箱15を載置する後載置台49aと、前記操縦席9及び選別移送コンベア11の右横方には複数の収容箱15を前後方向に載置できる右横載置台49bとを設け、前記補助操縦席9aの下側には前記右横載置台49bに載置した収容箱15の一部が挿入可能に構成したことを特徴とする作物収穫機としたものである。
【0006】
人参(イ)の収穫作業は、作物収穫機の走行車両2を圃場を走行させて、この走行車両2の一方側の横外側の前後方向に前部より、順次設けた左右両側の引起装置で人参(イ)の葉部が引起され、各掘起装置で人参(イ)の植付畦が掘起(土がほぐされ)され、掘起された人参(イ)は、左右両側の引抜移送装置28,28間で人参(イ)の葉部が挟持され、後方上部へ挟持移送中に移送始端部側で人参(イ)は引抜きされ、後方上部へ移送され、この挟持移送中に左右両側の首揃移送装置33,33間へ引継ぎされ、挟持移送されながら人参(イ)は首揃えされ、首揃え済み人参(イ)は、左右両側のタッピング移送装置34,34間で挟持移送中に人参(イ)の葉部の所定位置は、左右両側各葉切断装置12,12で切断される。
【0007】
葉部の所定位置を切断済み人参(イ)は、タッピング移送装置34,34から落下し、この切断済み作物体(イ)は残葉切断移送装置14で受け、この葉切断済み作物体(イ)に長い葉が残っていると、この残葉切断移送装置14で残葉が処理される。作物体(イ)は残葉を処理されながら前方の引継移送装置13に移送され、次いで引継移送装置13で右横方向に移送され、選別移送コンベア11に供給される。選別移送コンベア11で作物体(イ)は後方に向かって移送されるが、その移送途中で丸椅子51bに着座する選別作業者(A)により不良作物を目視選別され、残りの良品作物は後載置台49aに載置する収容箱15に収容される。

【発明の効果】
本発明においては、作物収穫機のタッピング移送装置34,34で後方へ移送中の人参(イ)の葉部の所定位置は、葉切断装置12,12で切断されて、下落する葉部切断済み人参(イ)は、残葉切断移送装置14で受け、この残葉切断移送装置14で葉切断済み人参(イ)に長い葉が残っていると、右横側へ移送しながら、一旦前方部へ移送する構成としたことにより、従来のように、この残葉切断移送装置14を左右方向に設けて、右横側へ移送しながら、残葉を処理して、後側に左右方向に設けた選別移送コンベアへ供給する構成に比較して、収穫作業機の全長を短くすることができ、このために、操作性が良好となり、更にコスト低減が可能になる。
【0014】
また、葉切断済み人参(イ)に長い葉が残っていると、この残葉を除去処理しながら、一旦前部への移送を残葉切断移送装置14で行うことにより、特別に前方へ移送する手段を設ける必要がなく、このために構成が簡単であり、又、コスト低減になる。
【0015】
また、人参を目視選別する選別作業者は、常に着座して目視選別することにより、疲労が少ない。
さらに、補助操縦席9aの下側には、右横載置台49bの上へ載置した収容箱の一部を挿入した構成としたことにより、機体を小型化できる。
【0016】
