SCREEN WINDING MACHINE FOR TEA PLANT RIDGE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a screen winding machine facilitating control of a machine body even in a tea plant ridge of a narrow ridge interval. SOLUTION: The screen winding machine 1 for a tea plant ridge includes a machine body 2 which is supported with a pair of wheels 3 each travelling on both the sides of a tea plant ridge U and formed in a gate shape crossing the tea plant ridge U. In the machine body 2, a winding axis 4 is supported rotatably around a central axis extending to a ridge width direction above the tea plant ridge U. The machine body 2 in a travelling figure when travelling along the tea plant ridge U is formed to place the central axis of the winding axis 4 on nearly above the central axis of the wheels 3, and equipped with a tumble preventing part 20 arranged at a height almost equal to that of the upper surface of a tea plant T ahead of the winding axis 4. The tumble preventing part 20 is formed to be loadable on the upper surface of the tea plant T by nearly surface-contacting the upper surface of the tea plant T in the travelling figure.
