PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vegetable transplanter with a manuring device, easily detaching the manuring device to smoothly perform transplantation operation in a light machine body by solving a problem of the conventional transplanter wherein, while the manuring device is integrally mounted on the machine body to simultaneously perform seedling transplantation operation and manuring operation, in order to prevent trouble caused by direct contact of a fertilizer with the root of a seedling and a fertilizer scorch due to excessive fertilizer component in a field, sometimes only the transplantation operation is performed without performing the manuring operation, and in a case where the manuring operation is not performed, since the manuring device is integrally mounted on the traveling machine body, the whole machine body is heavy, causing problems in steering operability.SOLUTION: In a vegetable transplanter, a manuring frame 3 loaded with a manuring tank 2 having a fertilizer delivery device 4 and an electric motor 1 for driving the fertilizer delivery device 4 is removably provided on the front of a traveling chassis 13 provided with a seedling planting device 14.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】従来の移植機は、施肥装置が機体に一体的に取り付けられていて、苗の移植作業と同時に施肥作業を行うことが考えられているが、肥料が直接苗の根に接触することによる障害や圃場に肥料成分が多すぎることによる肥料焼けを防ぐために、施肥作業を行わず、移植作業のみを行うことがある。この施肥作業を行わない場合、施肥装置が走行機体に一体的に取り付けられているために機体全体が重くて操縦操作性に課題があった。そこで、本発明は、施肥装置付の野菜移植機で、施肥装置を容易に取り外して軽い機体で移植作業を軽快に行えるようにすることを課題とする。【解決手段】肥料繰出装置4を設けた肥料タンク2と該肥料繰出装置4を駆動する電動モータ1を搭載した施肥架台3を、苗植付装置14を設けた走行車台13の前部に着脱可能に設けて野菜移植機を構成した。【選択図】図1
