Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A grafting method includes: making a cut surface of a scion and a cut surface of a rootstock contact with each other, and disposing sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other across a contact part; and covering a periphery of the contact part with the thermoplastic resin films by ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A grafting method comprising: making a cut surface of a scion and a cut surface of a rootstock contact with each other, and disposing separate sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other across a contact part; and covering a periphery of the contact part with the thermoplastic resin films by ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films together, wherein the covering includes ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films while applying a predetermined tensile load in a direction intersecting with axis directions of the scion and the rootstock and a direction in which the thermoplastic resin films face each other. 2. The grafting method according to claim 1 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes interposing the contact part between a first part and a second part that face each other when a single thermoplastic resin film is folded. 3. The grafting method according to claim 1 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes interposing the contact part between two thermoplastic resin films facing each other. 4. The grafting method according to claim 1 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes applying a predetermined tensile load in a direction intersecting with axis directions of the scion and the rootstock and a direction in which the thermoplastic resin films face each other, and the covering includes ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films applied with the predetermined tensile load. 5. The grafting method according to claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin films are transparent. 6. A grafting method comprising: making a cut surface of a scion and a cut surface of a rootstock contact with each other, and disposing separate sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other across a contact part; and covering a periphery of the contact part with the thermoplastic resin films by ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films together, wherein the covering includes ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films while applying a predetermined tensile load in a direction intersecting with axis directions of the scion and the rootstock and a direction in which the thermoplastic resin films face each other, and the thermoplastic resins films are joined together at one end in the direction the predetermined tensile load is applied. 7. The grafting method according to claim 6 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes interposing the contact part between a first part and a second part that face each other when a single thermoplastic resin film is folded. 8. The grafting method according to claim 6 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes interposing the contact part between two thermoplastic resin films facing each other. 9. The grafting method according to claim 6 , wherein the disposing of the sheet-like thermoplastic resin films facing each other includes applying a predetermined tensile load in a direction intersecting with axis directions of the scion and the rootstock and a direction in which the thermoplastic resin films face each other, and the covering includes ultrasonically welding the thermoplastic resin films applied with the predetermined tensile load. 10. The grafting method according to claim 6 , wherein the thermoplastic resin films are transparent.
