Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention is based on a patent application previously provided by the inventor of the present invention.
This invention relates to an improvement of No. 54-137202 (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 56-61926).

The inventor of this application is the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application No. 54-137202
56-61926), a seedling box for potted seedlings from which grown potted seedlings can be easily taken out was provided. In this seedling box, the outer frame is divided into a number of strip-shaped small chambers by partition walls, and a seedling stand is removably inserted into the small chambers, and partition plates are arranged parallel to the side wall of the small chamber and the top surface of the seedling stand. , which allows a large number of pot-shaped seedling chambers to be connected and formed. However, these pot-shaped seedling chambers communicate with each other through the contact area between the side wall of the chamber and the partition plate of the seedling stand, and as shown in Figure 4A, the root crossing phenomenon of pot seedlings occurs, and the grown pot seedlings are It was difficult to take out the roots one by one, and root cutting work was often required.

This invention aims to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and provides a seedling box for potted seedlings that allows for easy removal of grown potted seedlings and prevents the potted seedlings from spreading roots among themselves. .

That is, the present invention divides the frame into a large number of strip-shaped small chambers, and for each of these small chambers, compartments are arranged at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction on the upper surface of a bottom plate formed to close the bottom surface of the small chamber. A seedling box for pot seedlings, characterized in that a seedling stand is removably inserted therein, and a recess is provided at both ends of the partition wall, and a partition piece that can be inserted into the recess projects and is supported on the side wall of the chamber. The gist is structure.

Next, the present invention will be explained according to the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 denotes a frame. The frame body 1 has left and right side plates 2, 2
and connecting plates 3, 3 that connect these, and are divided into a large number of strip-shaped small chambers 4, 4, parallel to the side plates 2, 2. On the side wall 5 of each of these small chambers 4, partition pieces 6, 6, . . . project inward at regular intervals and are supported. The small chamber 4 is formed to expand from the bottom toward the top so that there is less resistance when the seedling stand 7 is removably inserted from above.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a seedling stand, which is formed by disposing partition walls 9, 9, . The partition walls 9, 9, . . . are formed into a roof-like shape with an isosceles triangular cross section, and recesses 10, 10, . The recesses 10, 10, . . . are formed with back surfaces 11, 11, . In the above, when the seedling stand 7 is inserted into the small chamber 4, the partition walls 9, 9... are the side walls 5 of the small chamber 4,
A large number of pot seedling chambers 12, 1 are placed in the small chamber 4 adjacent to the chamber 5.
2... are connected and formed, and the side edges of the partition pieces 6, 6... provided on the side wall 5 of the small chamber 4 are brought into close contact with the back surfaces 11, 11... to form recesses 10, 10...
By fitting the pot seedling chambers 12, 12, . . . , adjacent pot seedling chambers 12, 12, .

Note that the partition walls 9, 9... and the recesses 10, 10...
The shape of is not limited to the above and can be selected as appropriate.

Since this invention is formed as described above,
By placing the frame 1 horizontally and inserting the seedling stand 7 into the small chamber 4, both side walls 5, 5 of the small chamber 4 are installed.
A large number of pot seedling chambers 12, 12, . . . are connected and formed by the partition walls 9, 9, . . . of the seedling stand 7. When these pot seedling chambers 12, 12... are filled with bed soil and the pot seedlings a, a... are raised in the usual manner, the pot seedlings a, a... will spread roots as they grow, and their roots will grow in the pot. They reach the peripheral walls of the seedling chambers 12, 12, . . . and further pass through the abutting portions of the side walls 5, 5 and the partition walls 9, 9, . However, according to the present invention, the partition piece 6 provided on the side wall 5 of the small chamber 4 is fitted into the recess 10 of the seedling stand 7, and its tip edge abuts the back surface 11 of the recess 10, so that the adjacent pot seedling chambers 12, 12 As shown in FIG. 4B, the pot seedlings a, a... raised in the pot seedling box according to the present invention can be grown independently without spreading roots. Therefore, the pot seedlings a can be pulled out or pushed out one by one from the seedling stand 7 very easily.

As described above, the present invention has the practical benefit of completely preventing potted seedlings from spreading their roots and making it extremely easy to take out potted seedlings one by one.
