PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that the presence of a seedling transplanting device at a rear side at an elevated position on traveling over ridges, etc., causes the posture of traveling over the ridges to become unstable since the position of its center of gravity is high and the front end part of a vehicle body is elevated.SOLUTION: This seedling transplanter obtained by linking the seedling transplanting device 8 at the rear side of a traveling vehicle body 5 of riding type by a lift cylinder 6 through a lift link 7 for lifting up and down, while descending the seedling transplanting device 8 by the above lift cylinder 6 and sliding a float 9 at a bottom part by contacting it with ground, separately inserting/planting the seedlings delivered from a seedling tank 11 on a level soil surface by a transplanting device 10 and also installing a grip handle 12 for operating the traveling vehicle body 5 at the front end part of the traveling vehicle body 5 is constituted as descending the seedling transplanting device 8 to a proper position by laying down the above grip handle 12 for operation.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】畦越走行時等に後側の苗植装置が上昇位置にあると、重心位置が高く、車体の前端部が上昇して、畦越走行姿勢が不安定となる。【解決手段】乗用走行車体5の後側に、リフトシリンダ6によって昇降のリフトリンク7を介して苗植装置8を連結し、前記リフトシリンダ6によって苗植装置8を下降させて底部のフロート9を接地滑走させながら均平土壌面に植付装置10により苗タンク11から繰出される苗を分離挿植すると共に、車体5の前端部にはこの車体5操作作用のグリップハンドル12を設けた苗植機において、前記グリップハンドル12を倒し操作することによって、苗植装置8を適宜位置まで下降させる構成とする。【選択図】 図1
