PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seedling transplanter which can level the surface of soil even in a ridge edge where the soil is hard, can stabilize the planting depth of seedlings to be planted in the ridge edge, and can suppress a muddy water current generated by the rotation of a rotor.SOLUTION: Seedlings are planted in a planting distance along the edge of a ridge while the power transmission of a planting device 5 in a part of planting lines is stopped by the operation of a ridge edge clutch lever 13. The power transmission rotation speed of a harrowing rotor 12A in a ridge edge planting line area A among harrowing rotors 12 can be changed relative to the power transmission rotation speed of another harrowing rotor 12B in another other planting line area B. A resistance rotor 19 which is rotatable around a side rotor axis 16 or whose rotation is different from the rotation of a center rotor 12C is disposed in the inner periphery of rotation of a side rotor 12S.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】土質が硬い畦際でも土壌面を均平にすることができ、畦際に植え付けられる苗の植付深さを安定させると共に、ロータの回転により発生する泥水流の発生を抑えられる苗移植機を提供する。【解決手段】畦際クラッチレバー13の操作で一部の苗植付条域の植付装置5の伝動を停止した状態で畦際植付行程を苗植すると共に、代掻ロータ12のうち畦際植付条域Aの代掻ロータ12Aの伝動回転速を、他の植付条域Bの代掻ロータ12Bの伝動回転速に対して変速可能に構成すると共に、サイドロータ12Sの回転内周部にサイドロータ軸16の周りに回転自在、またはセンタロータ12Cとは異なる回転の抵抗ロータ19を設ける構成とする。【選択図】 図2
