Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a grain processing facility provided with a supply means for supplying grains from above a storage section for storing grains.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In such a grain processing facility, in order to store as much grain as possible in a storage section, it is necessary to store the grain so that the irregularities on the upper surface of the grain are reduced. In addition, there is a case where drying air is passed through the drying air in a vertical direction with respect to the grains stored in the storage unit to dry the stored grains.In this case, in order to uniformly dry the stored grains over the whole, In addition, it is necessary to store the grain so that the irregularities on the upper surface of the grain are reduced. Therefore, conventionally, when supplying the grain to the storage unit by the supply unit, the discharge unit of the grain of the supply unit is fixedly arranged so as to discharge the grain from the center of the upper portion of the storage unit in plan view, Rotary blades were provided to repel grain discharged from the discharge section.

[0003]

However, conventionally, when the amount of grain stored in the storage section is different, there has been a problem that the unevenness on the upper surface of the stored grain becomes large. For example, if the range of diffusion by the rotating blades is set so as to cover substantially the entire bottom surface of the storage unit, the larger the storage amount of the grain and the higher the storage height, the more the grain spread by the rotating blades in plan view. In the above, the sediment is concentrated toward the central portion, so that the upper surface of the stored grain is in a state in which the central portion is raised, and the unevenness becomes large. In order to solve this problem, for example, there is a case where the diffusion range can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation speed of the rotating blades according to the storage height. Although the irregularities on the upper surface of the grain are reduced somewhat, it is difficult to finely and appropriately adjust the diffusion range according to the storage height, and the problem that the irregularities on the upper surface of the stored grain are still large remains unsolved. Was left. In particular, in a storage section having a rectangular storage space in a plan view, the problem that the unevenness on the upper surface of the stored grain becomes large is more remarkable because the grains hardly accumulate at the corners of the rectangular storage space. Had become.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a grain processing facility capable of storing grains such that irregularities on the upper surface are reduced irrespective of the storage amount. is there.

[0005]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the equalizing means makes the discharge portion of the grain in the supply means equal in the horizontal direction to the storage height of the grain in the storage portion. As described above, since the grain is moved in the direction including the horizontal component, the grain is uniformly deposited on the entire surface of the storage unit in the horizontal direction. Therefore, even if the storage amount increases and the storage height increases, the grains are deposited evenly on the entire upper surface without being biased to a part of the upper surface of the stored grains, Grains can now be stored with less irregularities.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the equalizing means includes a moving means for moving the discharging unit in one direction and a distribution direction intersecting the moving direction of the discharged grain with the moving direction of the discharging unit. And a distributing means for distributing the data. In other words, the moving operation of the discharge unit in the direction including the horizontal component is limited to one direction, and the cereal is distributed and discharged in a direction intersecting the moving direction of the discharge unit, so that the cereal is stored in the storage unit. It can be deposited uniformly over the entire surface in the horizontal direction. Therefore, as a specific configuration of the equalizing means, a configuration in which the discharge unit is moved in a limited direction in one direction as in the characteristic configuration according to claim 2 is employed. Since the equalizing means can be simplified as compared with the case where it is adopted, according to the characteristic configuration of the second aspect, the implementation cost of the present invention can be reduced.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the distributing means includes a conveying means for conveying the grain in the distribution direction such that the grain is discharged from a different position in the distribution direction. That is, the grain is transported in the distribution direction by the transport means and is discharged from a different position in the distribution direction, so that the discharged grain can be appropriately distributed in the distribution direction. Therefore, the grain to be discharged can be appropriately distributed in the distribution direction while simplifying the equalizing means by adopting a configuration in which the discharging section is moved in one direction and the distribution section can be appropriately distributed. Can be further reduced.

[0008] According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the distributing means is provided with a flow-down guide for guiding the grain to be discharged from different positions in the distribution direction. That is, the cereal is guided by the downflow guide section and discharged from different positions in the distribution direction. Therefore, since the distribution means can be configured without an actuator, the implementation cost of the present invention can be further reduced.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, the supply means is provided by a moving means for the supply means to a storage part to which grain is to be supplied, among a plurality of storage parts provided in a row. It is moved to a predetermined position for supplying grain. In supplying the grain to the storage unit, the supply unit is moved by the moving means for the supply unit in the direction in which the storage units are arranged so that the storage height of the grain in the storage unit is uniform in the horizontal direction. The grain is distributed and discharged by the distribution means in a distribution direction crossing the moving direction. That is, in such a grain processing facility, in order to process a large amount of grains or to process grains by type, a plurality of storage units are provided in a row, and the storage units to which the grains are to be supplied can be changed freely. In some cases, moving means for supplying means for moving the supplying means in the direction in which the storage units are arranged may be provided. As described above, in the grain processing equipment provided with the moving means for the supplying means for moving the supplying means in the direction in which the storage units are arranged, the moving means for the supplying means is also used as the moving means for equalizing the present invention. Therefore, the implementation cost of the present invention can be reduced.

[0010] According to the characteristic configuration of the present invention, the position detecting means detects that the discharge section is located at the reference position with respect to the storage section in the moving direction, and the control means performs the detection. Based on the information, in order to deposit grains uniformly over the entire horizontal surface of the storage unit, the operating time of the moving means for equalization so that the discharge unit is located at the set position in the moving direction with respect to the storage unit. Control. Incidentally, as a configuration for positioning the discharging unit at the set position, for example, a plurality of position detecting means for detecting that the discharging unit is positioned at the set position are provided, and based on detection information of the position detecting means. Thus, a configuration in which the discharge unit is moved is assumed. However, in this case, the number of position detecting means for detecting that the discharge unit is located at the reference position and the set position increases, and the configuration becomes complicated. Therefore, according to the feature configuration of claim 6, as the position detection means for detecting the position of the discharge unit, only one storage unit needs to be provided for at least one storage unit, so that the configuration is simplified. The implementation cost of the present invention can be reduced.

According to the characteristic configuration of the present invention, since the storage section is configured to have a rectangular storage space in plan view, it is configured to have a circular storage space in plan view. Compared with the case, the storage amount can be increased while the installation area is substantially the same. In this way, in order to increase the storage amount while minimizing the installation area, in a grain processing facility configured so that the storage unit is provided with a rectangular storage space in a plan view, when the present invention is adopted, grains are used. It is possible to deposit evenly over the entire horizontal surface of the storage space including the corners of the rectangular storage space.
Therefore, in carrying out the present invention, it is possible to provide a specific configuration in which the effect of reducing the irregularities on the upper surface of the stored grain is particularly remarkable.
