The present invention is embodied in the form described above and has the following effects.

(1) According to the first aspect of the present invention, a discharge mechanism for discharging the seaweed peeled from the cage frame to the outside is provided immediately below the peeling mechanism for peeling the seaweed from the cage frame. Therefore, the front and rear length of the laver peeling device can be shortened as much as possible, the front and rear length of the laver manufacturing device can be shortened, and the laver manufacturing device can be downsized.

(2) According to the second aspect of the present invention, the discharging mechanism is configured to discharge the seaweed peeled off from the cage by the peeling mechanism in a direction substantially orthogonal to the conveying direction of the cage. Therefore, also by this, the front-back length of the laver peeling apparatus can be shortened as much as possible, the front-rear length of the laver manufacturing apparatus can be shortened, and the laver manufacturing apparatus can be downsized.

(3) According to the third aspect of the present invention, the discharge mechanism includes a discharge belt that discharges in a direction substantially perpendicular to the conveying direction of the cage frame, and a discharge belt disposed between the discharge belt and the peeling mechanism. And an intermediate belt for transferring the nori peeled from the cradle to the discharge belt by the peeling mechanism,
The intermediate belt is connected to the suction mechanism so that it can be sucked on the surface of the belt. In addition, when the peeling operation of the peeling mechanism is performed, the belt surface is configured to be in close contact with the seaweed adhering to the pond frame. When the laver is peeled off from the frame, the laver is adsorbed and held on the belt surface, so that the laver can be reliably peeled off from the pond frame and the laver can be prevented from falling.

(4) In the present invention according to claim 4, the intermediate belt is used to transfer the laver separated from the cage to the discharge belt, and the lamination posture in which the belt surface is brought into close contact with the laver adhered to the cage. When the laver is peeled off from the frame, the laver is adsorbed and held on the belt surface. Nori can be reliably peeled off from the frame.

Further, the peeled seaweed can be held in the same posture as the state in which it is in close contact with the seaweed cage, and the seaweed can be delivered to the discharge belt in that posture, and all the seaweed can be evenly distributed. And the seaweed can be smoothly delivered to an inspection machine or a packing machine connected to the discharge belt.

(5) According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since a plurality of intermediate belts are provided between the peeling mechanism and the discharge belt, the seaweed peeled from the seaweed cages attached to the cage frame can be shortened. It can be delivered to the discharge belt in a short time, the processing time in the discharge mechanism can be shortened, and a large amount of nori can be manufactured in a short time by the nori maker.

(6) In the present invention as set forth in claim 6, the peeling mechanism comprises a preliminary peeling portion for peeling the front and rear edges of the laver adhered to the pond frame from the pond frame, and a front and rear edge by the preliminary peeling portion. Since the peeled laver is composed of a main peeling part that peels off the seaweed from the cage frame, the peeling operation at the main peeling part can be performed quickly and smoothly, and thereby, the transportation of the cage frame by the cage frame transport device. The speed can be increased, and a large amount of laver can be produced in a short time by the laver maker.

Further, there is no need to provide a complicated mechanism for reliably peeling the laver from the laver by the main stripping section, and the structure of the main stripping section can be simplified.
