PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a walking-type rice planter which laterally moves a seedling tray by the relative rotation and relative movement of a guide shaft to a transfer member, and which is advantageous in the aspect of the size and weight balance.SOLUTION: This walking-type rice planter has one travel wheel 1, a steering handle 3 disposed behind the travel wheel 1 in the vehicle body a seedling tray 80 disposed behind the travel wheel 1 in the vehicle body, in a state capable of being moved in the lateral direction of the vehicle body and a seedling-planting section 8 having two seedling-planting mechanisms 6 arranged in the lateral direction of the vehicle body is such that a lateral seedling-transfer mechanism 100 is arranged and disposed in front of the seedling tray 80, behind a perpendicular line A which passes through the axle axis X of the traveling wheel 1. The outside of the outer periphery of the traveling wheel 1, thereby the lateral seedling-transferring mechanism 100 is moved in a reciprocating manner in the lateral direction of the vehicle body, by driving a guide shaft 102 disposed in the lateral direction of the vehicle body and a transfer member 101 engaged with the guide shaft 102, in a relatively rotatable and relatively slidable state so as to be relatively rotated and imparted a lateral transfer force to the seedling tray 80, to interlock the seedling tray 80 with the seedling-planting movement of the seedling-planting mechanisms 6.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】ガイド軸と移送体との相対回転および相対移動によって苗載せ台を横移送するものでありながら、大きさや重量バランスの面で有利となる歩行型田植機を提供する。【解決手段】一つの走行車輪1と、走行車輪1よりも車体後方側に設けた操縦ハンドル3と、走行車輪1よりも車体後方側に車体横方向に移動自在に設けた苗載せ台80と、車体横方向に並んだ二つの苗植付け機構6とを有した苗植付け部8を備えている。車体横向きのガイド軸102と、ガイド軸102に相対回転及び相対摺動自在に係合した移送体101とが相対回転するよう駆動されることにより、苗載せ台80に横移送力を付与して、苗載せ台80を苗植付け機構6の苗植え運動に連動させて車体横方向に往復移送する苗横送り機構100を、苗載せ台80よりも車体前方側に、走行車輪1の車軸芯Xを通る鉛直線Aよりも車体後方側で、かつ走行車輪1の外周よりも外側に配置して設けてある。【選択図】図1
