PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To insert a pod-attached crop into the inner part of the pod-removing device while being able to pull out the pod-attached crop without bringing the tip end side of the sandwiching transport device to be extremely close to the ground. Obtain a podged crop harvester that is easy and can simplify the power transmission structure. SOLUTION: An endless rotating belt 21 of a sandwiching transport device 20 is a combination of a front rotating belt 21a located at the front part of a crop transport path r1 and a rear rotating belt 21b located at the rear part of a crop transport path r1. A relay pulley 20B for transmitting a driving force from the front end portion of the rear rotation belt 21b to the rear end portion of the front rotation belt 21a is provided, and the rear end portion of the front rotation belt 21a is provided on the upper stage portion of the relay pulley 20B. It is wound, and the front end portion of the rear rotation belt 21b is wound around the lower portion of the relay pulley 20B. [Selection diagram] Fig. 5【課題】 莢付き作物を引き抜いて後方搬送する挟持搬送装置の先端側を、極端に地面に近づけ過ぎずに抜き取り作業を行えるものでありながら、脱莢装置の奥部へ莢付き作物を挿入し易く、動力伝達構造の簡素化をも図り得た莢付き作物収穫機を得る。【解決手段】 挟持搬送装置20の無端回動ベルト21が、作物搬送経路r1の前部に位置する前回動ベルト21aと、作物搬送経路r1の後部に位置する後回動ベルト21bと、の組み合わせで構成され、後回動ベルト21bの前端部から前回動ベルト21aの後端部へ駆動力を伝達する中継プーリ20Bが設けられ、中継プーリ20Bの上段部に前回動ベルト21aの後端部が巻回され、中継プーリ20Bの下段部に後回動ベルト21bの前端部が巻回されている。【選択図】図5
