PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a root vegetable harvester preventing crops from being damaged and also preventing the crops from being attached with soil, and improving the efficiency of harvesting works.SOLUTION: This root vegetable harvester is equipped with a pulling out and conveying device 9 equipped with working parts for nipping, holding and conveying (9L, 9R) for pulling out the root vegetables from a field and conveying the same, and at the lower direction of the working parts for nipping, holding and conveying (9L, 9R), installing a soiler 11, having a constitution that its front end part is positioned at lower than the lowest position of the root vegetables of the field so as to pass through the lower direction of the root vegetables of the field and also without vibrating. Since the soiler 11 passes through the lower direction of the root vegetables and can push up and pull out the root vegetables, it can prevent the attachment of muddy soil to the root vegetables and also improve the efficiency of the harvesting work. Also, at the front end part of the soiler, by installing a plate body 11a having a wider width than that of the soiler 11 and a narrower width than the width of left and right direction of the front end part of the pulling out and conveying device 9, it is possible to push up and dig out the root vegetables further and prevent the root vegetables in an adjacent ridge from being damaged so that the values of the harvested crops are improved.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】作物の損傷を防ぎ、作物に土が付着することを防止して、収穫作業の能率を向上させる根菜類収穫機を提供することである。【解決手段】圃場から根菜を引き抜き搬送する挟持搬送作用部(9L,9R)を備えた引抜搬送装置9を設けており、引抜搬送装置9の挟持搬送作用部(9L,9R)の下方に、圃場の根菜の下方を通過するように圃場の根菜の最下位置よりも下に前端部が位置する構成を有する振動しないソイラ11を設けた。ソイラ11は、根菜の下方を通過するため、根菜を押上げて掘起こすことができるので、根菜に泥土が付着することを防止でき、収穫作業の能率が向上する。また、ソイラ11の前端部に、該ソイラ11よりも幅が広く、且つ引抜搬送装置9の前端部の左右方向の幅よりも幅が狭い板体11aを設けると、より根菜を押し上げて掘り起こすことができ、隣接条の根菜を傷付けること防止できるので、収穫作物の価値が向上する。【選択図】図3
