[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as one form of a fertilizer applicator, there is a fertilizer applicator including a fertilizer hopper for accommodating fertilizer, and a fertilizer feeding section provided below the fertilizer hopper to feed the fertilizer.

[0003] The fertilizer feeding section has a fertilizer feeding case formed in the lower part of the fertilizer feeding case, and a fertilizer feeding hole formed in a lower end of the fertilizer feeding case. The fertilizer is fed from the fertilizer feeding hole while stirring the fertilizer stored in the fertilizer hopper by the wings.

[0004]

However, in the fertilizer applicator described above, the fertilizer adheres and remains in the fertilizer feeding case of the fertilizer feeding section, and the fertilizer is solidified over time because the fertilizer is hygroscopic. is there. For this reason, it is necessary to discharge the remaining fertilizer after the fertilization work is completed, but it is difficult to discharge the fertilizer remaining in the fertilizer feeding case integrally formed at the bottom of the fertilizer hopper. However, there is a problem that the fertilizer cannot be used in the next season because the remaining fertilizer is solidified without being sufficiently discharged.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, according to the present invention, in a fertilizer applicator provided with a fertilizer hopper for storing fertilizer and a fertilizer feeding section provided below the fertilizer hopper to feed fertilizer, the fertilizer feeding section includes: A fertilizer applicator characterized in that an upper end opening of a fertilizer feeding case is detachably connected to a lower end opening of a fertilizer hopper, and a feeding blade is laid horizontally on a lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper. It is.

The present invention also provides the fertilizer applicator, wherein the fertilizer feeding section detachably connects an upper end opening of a fertilizer feeding case to a lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper, and feeds the upper end opening of the fertilizer feeding case. That the wing body was laid horizontally,
In addition, the fertilizer feeding case is characterized in that one end is pivotally supported on one end of the fertilizer hopper so that it can be opened and closed vertically about the pivot.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

[0008] The fertilizer applicator according to the present invention has, as its basic structure, a fertilizer hopper for accommodating fertilizer, and a fertilizer feeding section provided below the fertilizer hopper to feed fertilizer.

[0009] As a characteristic structure, the fertilizer feeding section has a lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper and an upper end opening of a fertilizer feeding case detachably connected thereto, and a feeding blade is horizontally mounted on the lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper. doing.

In this way, by removing the fertilizer feeding case from the fertilizer hopper, it is possible to easily and surely wash off the fertilizer remaining in the fertilizer feeding case, so that the fertilizer application machine of the next season can be removed. Can be used.

[0011] At this time, since the feed-out wings are laid on the lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper, the attachment / detachment work of the fertilizer feed-out case can be performed easily.

Further, as a characteristic structure, the fertilizer feeding section has a lower end opening of the fertilizer hopper and an upper end opening of a fertilizer feeding case detachably connected thereto, and a feeding blade is provided at an upper end opening of the fertilizer feeding case. It's hanging.

[0013] In this manner, the blade for feeding can be removed from the fertilizer hopper integrally with the case for feeding fertilizer, and the fertilizer adhering to the case for feeding fertilizer and the blade for feeding can be removed easily and reliably. Can be washed off.

At this time, maintenance and the like of the feeding blade can be easily performed.

Also, as a characteristic structure, the fertilizer feeding case has one side end pivotally supported on one side end of the fertilizer hopper,
It is designed to be openable and closable up and down around the pivot.

In this way, by opening the fertilizer feeding case, the fertilizer remaining in the fertilizer feeding case can be easily and reliably washed off.

At this time, since the one end of the fertilizer feeding case is pivotally supported by one end of the fertilizer hopper, the opening and closing operation can be performed easily.
