The inoculum container is rotatably driven by the rotation drive member, and the inoculum container is supported while the load of rotation is reduced by the bearing member when the inoculum container rotates, thereby improving the inoculum by the scraping member. Scraping and can be inoculated.
Also, by disposing the bearing member concentrically with the insertion hole, the inclined surface portion of the shoulder of the seed container which is inserted upside down is always supported by the bearing member, so that the set position of the seed container is set. Can be attached to the rotation center position of the insertion hole, and even if the diameter of the mouth of the seed container and the height of the seed container are slightly different, rotation while pressing by the rotation supporting member Since it is added, it is possible to maintain a stable operation, and there is an effect that the inoculating operation of the inoculum can be favorably performed.
