PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seedling transplanter capable of facilitating fertilizer loading work even when there are a large amount of fertilizers.SOLUTION: The seedling transplanter is configured to change over a loading member (76) for loading working materials among a loading work position projecting to a front side or a laterally outward of a machine body, a filling work position projecting towards a fertilizer applicator (5), and a storage position located on the lower side of a preliminary seedling frame (38). The loading member (76) is configured to project to the front side of a traveling car body (2) or the lateral side of the traveling car body (2) when a loading device (66) is disposed at the loading work position. Accordingly, even when the traveling car body (2) is in an attitude of approaching to a field end, this configuration facilitates the loading of working materials such as a fertilizer and a fuel from the outside of the field so as to improve working efficiency and reduce labor of a worker.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】 本発明の課題は、肥料の量が多くても肥料の積込作業を容易に行うことができる苗移植機を提供することである。【解決手段】 作業資材を積載する積載部材(76)を、機体の前側または側方外側に突出する積込作業位置と、施肥装置(5)に向かって突出する補充作業位置と、予備苗枠(38)の下方に位置する収納位置に切替自在に構成した苗移植機とした。 これにより、積込装置(66)を積込作業位置に配置すると、積載部材(76)が走行車体(2)の前側または走行車体(2)の側方に突出する構成としたことにより、圃場端に走行車体(2)が接近する姿勢になっていても圃場外から肥料や燃料等の作業資材が積み込みやすくなるので、作業能率が向上すると共に、作業者の労力が軽減される。【選択図】 図2
