PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seedling transplanter which can increase the planting depth.SOLUTION: A seedling transplanter includes a seedling-planting device 91 for planting seedlings loaded on a platform in a field. The seedling-planting device 91 includes planting rods 94 for planting seedlings in the field, seedling-planting cases 93, driving gears 102, driven gears 103, relay gears 104, and sub-relay gears 105. The driving gear 102 is disposed in the central portion of the seedling-planting case 93, and is rotated with driving forces from a planting driving shaft 101. The driven gears 103 are disposed at both end portions of the seedling-planting case 93, and drive the planting rods 94. The relay gears 104 are disposed between the driving gear 102 and the driven gears 103, and relay the driving forces. The sub-relay gears 105 are disposed on the rotation shafts of the relay gears 104 and have smaller diameters than the relay gears 104. The driven gears 103 are engaged with the sub-relay gears 105.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】植付深さをより深くすることとができる苗移植機を提供する。【解決手段】苗移植機は苗載せ台に積載された苗を圃場に植付る苗植付装置91を備えている。苗植付装置91は苗を圃場に植付る植込杆94と苗植付ケース93と駆動ギヤ102と従動ギヤ103と中継ギヤ104とサブ中継ギヤ105を備えている。駆動ギヤ102は苗植付ケース93の中央部に設けられかつ植付駆動軸101からの駆動力をうけて回転する。従動ギヤ103は苗植付ケース93の両端部に設けられかつ植込杆94を駆動させる。中継ギヤ104は駆動ギヤ102と従動ギヤ103との間に設けられかつ駆動力を中継する。サブ中継ギヤ105は中継ギヤ104の回転軸に設けられかつ中継ギヤ104よりも小径である。従動ギヤ103がサブ中継ギヤ105と噛み合う。【選択図】図5
