PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stably maintain right and left markers into storage attitudes in which the right and left markers do not project to the side outside of a seedling planting apparatus and into non-acting attitudes in which turning-planting work can be performed in the lowered position of the seedling planting apparatus while avoiding the right and left markers contacting rear wheels.SOLUTION: This rice transplanter includes, on the planting apparatus side, a lateral pair of fixing metal fittings 35 fixing the positions of the markers 40 to mechanically impede swing movement to the lowering side in rise non-acting attitudes. The fixing metal fittings 35 are provided with support parts 37 for fixing the positions of the right and left markers 40 in a plurality of places, i.e., in the storage positions c in which the right and left markers 40 are entirely stored within the lateral width of the seedling planting apparatus, and in the non-acting positions b in which the right and left markers 40 are located on the laterally outer side from the storage positions c and on the laterally side outside from the right and left rear wheels.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】左右のマーカを、苗植付け装置の横外側にはみ出さない格納姿勢と、左右のマーカが後車輪と接触することを避けながら苗植付け装置の下降位置で回り植え作業を行うことができる非作用姿勢とに安定的に維持できるようにする。【解決手段】苗植付け装置側に、マーカ40を上昇非作用姿勢で下降側への揺動移動を機械的に阻止するように位置固定する左右一対の固定金具35を備え、固定金具35に、左右のマーカ40の全体が苗植付け装置の左右幅内に格納された状態となる格納位置cと、その格納位置cよりも横外方側で前記左右のマーカ40が左右の後車輪よりも左右方向での横外側に位置する非作用位置bとの、複数箇所で位置固定するための支持部37を設けてある。【選択図】図5
