Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Field of Application The present invention relates to a seedling-raising mat in which small-sized seeding pots are arranged in an array, and is placed in a seedling-raising box to raise seedlings in the form of bed soil and sowing. .

Conventional technology and the problem to be solved by the invention A rectangular seedling mat with seeding pots arranged in an array is formed using a material such as paper that can be used as a seedling bed, and this seedling mat is placed in a seedling box. In the case of bed filling and seeding, the outer periphery of the seedling mat is easily distorted, so if the arrangement of sowing or raising seedlings on this outer periphery is bent, or if there is bedding soil on this outer periphery, the mat seedlings will be damaged after raising seedlings. When supplied into the seedling tank of a seedling transplanter, sliding resistance with the side wall surface of the seedling tank tends to be large.

[Regarding the invention of claim 1] Means for solving the problem This invention is a method of solidifying seedling bed material and arranging small sowing pots (1) for receiving bed soil and sowing seeds in a fixed shape to form a rectangular shape. and the outer side of this rectangular shape (2)
The sowing and seedling raising mat is configured such that it bulges outward with respect to the corner (3).

Functions and Effects of the Invention The sowing and seedling raising mat is placed in a seedling raising box and placed in each seeding box.
(1) Seedlings are raised in a state in which bed soil is filled and seeds are sown. In a seedling raising box, this sowing and seedling raising mantle can be laid with the outer side (2) along the inner wall surface of the seedling raising box, or when laying multiple sowing and seedling raising mats side by side, it can be placed at the seam of each sowing and seedling raising mat. are in a state where they are joined. At this time, the outer side (2) of the sowing and seedling raising mat is located at both corners (
3), it is easy for this outer edge (2) to come into contact with the inner wall surface of the seedling box or the joint surface between the sowing and seedling raising mats, and the gap between these It is difficult for gaps to form, it is possible to perform accurate soil filling and sowing, and it is possible to reduce the bending of the seedling rows.

[Regarding the invention of claim 2] Means for solving the problem This invention is a method of solidifying seedling bed material and arranging small sowing pots (1) for receiving bed soil and sowing seeds in a fixed form to form a rectangular shape. and the outer side of this rectangular shape (2)
The outer wall surface (4) of each pot (1) along the outer wall (4) is formed vertically to form a sowing/seedling raising mantle.

Functions and Effects of the Invention The seedlings of the pine trees 1 to 1 are placed in a seedling box and each seeding pot (1) is filled with bed soil and seeded, and the seedlings are raised.

This sowing and seedling raising mat is located on the outer side (2) in the seedling raising box.
When laying along the inner wall surface of this seedling raising box, or when laying multiple sowing seedling raising mats side by side, the outer wall surface ( 4) is formed vertically, it is easy to connect this outer wall surface (4) to the inner wall surface of the seedling nursery box, or to connect the outer wall surfaces (4) of each sowing and seedling raising pine 1 to each other, It is possible to reduce the curvature of the seedling row. In addition, when feeding the seedling mat grown in this way to the seedling tank of a seedling transplanter, the outer wall surface (4) is placed along the left and right side walls of the seedling tank. ) has less adhesion of seeds, etc., so the frictional resistance against the side wall surface of the seedling tank can be reduced.

[Regarding the invention of claim 3] Means for solving the problem This invention solidifies seedling bed material and arranges seeding pots (1) in small sections for receiving bed soil and seeds in a fixed shape into a rectangular shape. The width (a) of each pot (1) along the outer side (2) of the rectangular shape in the direction orthogonal to the outer side (2) is determined by ) is formed narrower than the width (b) in the same direction.

Functions and Effects of the Invention The seedlings of the pine trees 1 to 1 are placed in a seedling box and each seeding pot (1) is filled with bed soil and seeded, and the seedlings are raised.

This sowing and seedling raising mat is located on the outer side (2) in the seedling raising box.
When laying along the inner wall surface of this seedling raising box, or when laying multiple sowing and seedling raising mats side by side, each pot (1) is placed along the outer edge (2) of this sowing and seedling raising mat.
Since the width (A) in the direction perpendicular to the outer side (2) direction is narrower than the width (B) in the same direction of the pot (1) in the center, when filling the bed with soil, Even if bed soil or a part of the top layer is interposed between these outer edges (2) and the inner wall surface of the seedling nursery box, or between the outer edges (2) to be jointed and laid, etc. By not increasing the distance between the seedlings on the outer side (2) and the inner wall surface of the seedling box, the density of growing seedlings can be made uniform.

Examples In Figs. 1 to 3, the seeding and seedling raising mat (
5) is made of a material such as fiber or paper and forms part of a seedling bed, and is formed by arranging seed pots (1) in rows and columns. The seeding pot (1) in the small section is in the shape of a square pyramid, and has vertical and horizontal dimensions and a depth suitable for separate planting with the planting device of a seedling transplanter, and the opening of this seeding pot (1) They are connected to each other at the peripheral edge of the portion (6) and formed into a mat-like shape having a rectangular shape in plan view. Further, a hole (7) is formed in the bottom of the seeding pot (1) on the opposite side to the opening (6). Each seeding pot (
1) A space part (8) is formed between them.

The outer periphery west side (2) of the sowing seedling raising mano (5) is shaped like an arc and bulges outward (c) with respect to the corners (3) at both ends, and is opposed to the left and right or front and back. side part (2
) is formed so as to maximize the interval length between them.

Moreover, each of the four side portions (2) of this sown and raised seedling pine l-(5) is formed vertically extending over the outer wall surface (4) of each of the sown points y1 to (1).

The seedling raising mantle (51) is placed inside the seedling raising box (9).
) and a surrounding side surface (11) are formed to have a width and depth suitable for fitting the sowing and seedling raising mat (5). .

When sowing, the seeding work is carried out using a sowing conveyor equipped with a soil packing device that supplies bed soil onto the conveyor, a sowing device that sows seeds, etc. Then, the sown and raised pine trees 1 to 5 are placed with the openings (6) facing upward.

During this transfer, a thin layer of bed soil is supplied by a soil filling device, and furthermore, a seeding device is used to sow seeds on top of this bed soil. After sowing, the soil is further filled with bed soil using a soil filling device. After filling each seeding pot (11) with bed soil and sowing,
The upper surface is leveled and pressed, and the seedling raising box (9) is fitted downward from above the seedling raising mat (5). In this state, between these seedling raising boxes (9) and the plate plate, the seedlings of pine I are sown.
- Invert the seedling box (9) while holding it in place.
so that it is on the bottom side, and remove the upper plate plate. Furthermore, soil is covered from above using a soil filling device, and watering is performed. By this covering with soil, the spacing portions (8) of each seeding pot (1) are filled with top soil.

When raising seedlings, the seeds will germinate from the hole (7) of each sowing pot (1) to the side, and the root hairs will grow not only inside the pot (1) but also in each pot (1).
) The wall part is extended to the outer circumferential space part (8) to form a mat seedling in which the seedbed part is in the shape of one sheet.

When laying the seedling-raising mat (5) in the seedling-raising box (9), the outer edge (2) may come into contact with the side surface (11) of the seedling-raising box (9), or the multiple seedling-raising mats ( 5) when laying them side by side in the nursery box (9), each sown seedling pine l-
The outer sides (2) of [5] come into contact with each other to reduce the gap between them.

Also, at this time, each pot (1
) is formed vertically, so
It is easy to apply pressure to the side surface (11) of the seedling raising box (9), and the gap can be reduced even without applying pressure.

In Figures 4 and 5, the width (
A) is formed narrowly, and the hole (7) at the bottom is located in a position offset toward the outer side (2). In this form, the outer wall surface (
4) is formed on an inclined surface like the other side wall surface (1υ), but may be formed on a vertical surface like the upper side.

In addition, at the center of the hole (7) formed at the bottom of each seeding pot (11), the distance (d) between adjacent pots (1)
is constant.

By narrowing the width (A) of the seeding pot fil along the outer side (2) in this way, the relative position of the pot (1) to the side surface (II) of the seedling box (9) is narrowed, It is possible to prevent the outer periphery of the seedbed from expanding when raising seedlings, and to make the density of seedlings uniform over the entire seedbed surface. Also, when a pair of sown and raised seedling pines 1 to (5) are joined and laid, the spacing between the seedlings at these joints is unlikely to become large.
