CROP DRAWING MACHINE

To draw and leave root crops in a farm field, without damaging the shoulders of the root crops and with appropriate stems and leaves remaining, by improving a shoulder lining-up device.SOLUTION: The crop drawing machine includes: a drawing/transporting device that draws root crops by holding the stems and leaves; a shoulder lining-up device that lines up the shoulder position of the drawing root crops in the lower part of the drawing/transporting device; and a stem/leaf cutting device that cuts off the tip ends of the stems/leaves in the rear part of the shoulder lining-up device. In this machine, there are installed left/right collecting/delivering devices that collect the lower leaves of harvest spread out in a farm field to deliver to the drawing/transporting device and left/right raising devices that are situated in front of the left/right collecting/delivering devices. The drawing/transporting device is arranged under the left/right collecting/delivering devices and the left/right raising devices in front thereof. In the front part of the drawing/transporting device, there is installed a shoulder interposing device that is situated under the left/right collecting/delivering devices and the left/right raising device in front thereof. Thus, the root crops are drawn out with the part lower than the stems and leaves inserted and held in-between.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】本発明は、肩揃え装置を改良して根菜類の肩を傷つけず適正な茎葉を残した状態で根菜類を圃場に抜き置き出来るようにすることを課題とする。【解決手段】根菜類の茎葉を挟持して引き抜く引抜搬送装置と、該引抜搬送装置の下方で引き抜く根菜類の肩位置を揃える肩揃え装置と、該肩揃え装置の後部で茎葉先端を切り落とす茎葉切断装置を設けた作物引抜機において、圃場面に広がる収穫物の下葉をまとめて前記引抜搬送装置に渡す、左右の相込み装置及びその前側の左右の引起装置を設け、前記引抜搬送装置は、前記左右の相込み装置及びその前側の左右の引起装置の下方に配置し、前記引抜搬送装置の前部に、前記左右の相込み装置及びその前側の左右の引起装置の下方に位置する肩部挟み込み装置を設け、根菜類の茎葉部より下方を挟持して引き抜くことを特徴とする。【選択図】図２
