PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automated disinfector using warm water with saving labor.SOLUTION: The seed disinfector 1 with warm water is able to continuously and automatically disinfect seed rice with warm water by feeding the seed rice (seeds) in a loose state to one or more disinfection vessels 10 by transport means comprising an endless chain 6, a transport drive unit 7 and the like, soaking the disinfection vessels 10 into a warm bath tank 4 and a cold bath tank in order and discharging the seeds out of the disinfection vessels 10. Therefore, the seed rice is continuously and automatically disinfected with warm water without requiring a workman to put the disinfection vessels 10 into a warm bath tank and the like and take the disinfection vessels 10 therefrom. In addition, feeding and discharging of the seed rice to each disinfection vessel 10 are automatically carried out, therefore, labor of the workman is not required in this aspect.COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT【課題】人手間(労力)を必要とせず自動化した温湯消毒装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明の温湯消毒装置1によれば、複数の消毒容器10に種籾(種子)をばらの状態で供給し、該消毒容器10を無端搬送チェーン6や搬送駆動部7などからなる搬送手段によって、温浴槽4及び冷浴槽5に順次浸漬し、この後、消毒容器10から種籾を排出するので、消毒容器10を作業者が温浴槽4等に入れたり出したりすることなく、連続的、かつ、自動で、ばらの種籾を温湯消毒することができる。また、各消毒容器10への種籾の供給やその排出も自動的に行われるので、この点においても作業者の労力が不要である。【選択図】図1
