PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a grafted seedling producing apparatus with an easy structure, with respect to seedlings having soft seed leaves to be developed in a bifoliate condition, capable of efficiently performing a grafting process through surely arranging the development axis direction of the seed leaf in a prescribed direction without depending on manpower work and damaging seed leaves.SOLUTION: This grafted seedling producing apparatus 1 is composed of a gathering part 2 separately gathering seedlings W having bifoliate developing seed leaves as scion or stock, a pretreatment part 4 pretreating the seedlings W received from the gathering part 2 and conveying to a grafting attaching position, and an attaching process part 7 producing the grafted seedlings through attaching the seedlings W received on the grafting attaching position by the pretreatment part 4 to separately received stock. Lining holding means 15 and 16 for holding the seedlings W while regulating the seed leaf developing direction of the seedlings W transported with the gathering part 2 are set on a delivery position where the seedlings W are delivered between the gathering part 2 and the pretreatment part 4.COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI【課題】双葉状に展開する柔らかな子葉を有する苗について、人手作業によることなく、子葉を傷めずにその展開軸線方向を確実に所定方向に揃えて能率良く接木処理することができる簡易な構成の接木苗製造装置を提供する。【解決手段】接木苗製造装置1は、双葉状の展開子葉を有する苗Wを穂木または台木として個別に取込処理する取込部2と、この取込部2から受けた苗Wを前処理して接木接着位置まで搬送する前処理部4と、この前処理部4によって同接木接着位置に受けた苗Wを別途受けた台木と接着して接木苗を製造する接着処理部7とを備えて構成され、上記取込部2と前処理部4との間で苗Wの受渡しを行う受渡し位置には、取込部2によって移送された苗Wの子葉展開方向を規制しつつ同苗Wを保持する整列保持手段15,16を設けたものである。【選択図】図1
