Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rod hanging device for hanging a nodule typified by sausage on a long hanging rod in a fixed posture.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional apparatus of this kind is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-3.
It is publicly known from Japanese Patent Publication No. 13095. There is a drum that sends sausage at a constant speed, a chute that moves the sausage sent from the drum to the left and right to hang it on a hanging bar, and a bar feeder that intermittently advances the hanging bar that is supported horizontally. Constitutes a pole hanging device. The chute is slid reciprocally above the hanging bar, and hangs the knot of the sausage on the hanging bar while moving left and right. After that, the hanging bar is advanced by a certain amount, and waits for the next node of the sausage to be hung.

[0003]

According to the above-mentioned apparatus for hanging a rod, the work of hanging sausages on one hanging rod can be performed automatically. However, after hanging a predetermined number of sausage groups on the hanging bar, the rotation of the drum is stopped, the sausage group is taken out together with the hanging bar, a new hanging bar is mounted on the bar feeder, and the cart is moved. You need to retreat. Moreover,
The total number of unit sausages hung on the hanging bar 3 varies, and extra sausage may be hanging at the end, or incomplete sausage with a protruding meat mass may be hanging. The device needs to be stopped during manual operation. Therefore, the time required for one work cycle is long, and the time required for the rod hanging device to stop and wait is long, so that the processing capacity per unit time is insufficient, and further improvement in efficiency has been demanded.

[0004] The sausage wound around the drum hangs down to one side of the hanging bar via a chute. Therefore, when the end of a series of sausages reaches the drum, it is dragged by the weight of the hanging part,
It falls from the drum. For this reason, it is necessary to hang the tail portion of the sausage group on the hanging bar manually or to prevent the tail portion from being dragged, and there is still room for improvement in this respect.

[0005] It is an object of the present invention to provide a rod hanging apparatus capable of continuously hanging a sausage and greatly improving the work efficiency as compared with a conventional rod hanging apparatus. Another object of the present invention is to provide a rod that can be reliably hung on a hanging bar up to the end of a series of sausages, thereby reducing the time and effort required for post-processing work by the end, and improving work efficiency. A hanging device is provided.

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a rod hanging apparatus comprising: a first-stage feeding mechanism for intermittently feeding a hanging rod in a straight line;
A hanging mechanism 6 disposed above the feeding path of the hanging bar 3 and delivering a continuous sausage group G while displacing left and right between one side and the other side of the hanging bar 3; Feeding device 5
A second-stage feeding device 7 that intermittently feeds the hanging rods 3 sent from the feeder and intermittently feeds straight, and supports the front and rear ends of the hanging rods 3 fed to the end of the feeding path, and Frame 6 outside
And a take-out mechanism 8 for transferring the hanging bar 3 to the upper position 9, and a series of operations from the feeding of the hanging bar 3 to the removal of the hanging bar 3 are automatically performed continuously.

The hanging mechanism 6 is supported by a revolving base 25 that is reciprocally movable about a vertical axis, a revolving mechanism 26 that intermittently reciprocates the revolving base 25, and a sausage group provided on the revolving base 25. And a sending mechanism 27 for feeding G. The sending-out mechanism 27 includes a winding transmission 36 that is intermittently driven to rotate, and a group of holding bodies 37 that are fixed to the peripheral surface of the winding transmission 36 and that operate to send out the sausage group G.

[0008] The front-stage feeding mechanism 5 includes a hanging-bar feeding mechanism 10 for sending one of the group of hanging bars 3 stored in the chute 4 to a preceding-feed starting end position, a preceding-feed starting end position, and a preceding-feeding position. An extruding mechanism 11 that reciprocates between the end positions and pushes the hanging rod 3 intermittently toward the pre-feed end position.

The rear-stage feeding mechanism 7 includes a rod receiving arm 49 for capturing and fixing the tip of the hanging rod 3 at the front feeding end position, and a rod receiving arm 4.
9 includes a reciprocating operation for reciprocating between a post-feeding start end position and a post-feeding end position.

The take-out mechanism 8 includes a pair of take-out arms 67 that swing up and down around an axis parallel to the feed path of the hanging bar 3,
It includes a swing mechanism 68 for swinging the take-out arm 67 and a pair of receiving frames 69 arranged facing the upper end of the swing stroke of the take-out arm 67.

The feed path of the hanging bar 3 is arranged so as to pass through the turning shaft 28 of the turning table 25.

[0012]

The effect of the present invention is shown in FIG.
As shown in (1), one end is manually placed on the delivery mechanism 27 of the hanging mechanism 6. The hanging bar 3 is sent out to the previous feeding start position and stands by. When the rod hanging device is activated in this state, the hanging rod 3 is intermittently fed by the front feed mechanism 5,
In synchronization with this intermittent feeding operation, the hanging mechanism 6 hangs the sausage group G on the hanging bar 3. The hanging mechanism 6 swings from one side of the hanging bar 3 to the other side while intermittently feeding the sausage group G, and reciprocates as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. The G nodule is hung on the hanging bar 3. Thereafter, the intermittent feeding of the hanging bar 3 and the intermittent feeding and turning of the sausage group G are repeatedly performed, and the sausage group G is hung one after another.

When the hanging bar 3 moves to the pre-feed end position,
The rear feeding mechanism 7 that has been waiting until then captures and takes over the tip of the hanging rod 3, and intermittently feeds the hanging rod 3 in the same manner as the preceding feeding mechanism 5. The first-stage feeding mechanism 5 that has received the hanging bar 3 retreats to the previous-feed starting end position and waits until the next feeding starts. The hanging mechanism 6 hangs the sausage group G continuously on the hanging rod 3 fed by the rear feeding mechanism 7.

When the hanging rod 3 moves to the post-feed end position,
As shown in FIG. 11, the unloading mechanism 8 that has been waiting until then
Operates to support the front and rear ends of the hanging bar 3 and transfer to the receiving frame 69 provided outside the feeding route of the hanging bar 3. Thereafter, the second-stage feeding mechanism 7 retreats to the second-feed starting end position and stands by.
Further, the take-out mechanism 8 also returns to the standby position. After this,
The hanging cycle of the sausage group G is started again. The suspending rod 3 taken out from the feeding route is temporarily transferred to the receiving frame 69 when the total number of unit sausages in the sausage group G is uneven, or when the sausage at the end is incomplete and the meat mass protrudes. This is because these finishing processes are performed manually. Thereafter, the hanging bar 3 is transferred to a truck or a consolidation conveyor and sent to the next process.

As described above, in the rod hanging device of the present invention,
A series of hanging operations can be performed continuously without interruption, and the hanging operation on the next hanging bar 3 can be performed in parallel while the terminal of the sausage group G is being processed. In comparison, the hanging work efficiency can be remarkably improved, and the productivity of sausage production can be improved accordingly. Since the sausage group G is intermittently fed by the hanging mechanism 6 and further hung by moving the hanging bar 3 to the left and right, the sausage group G hanging above the hanging bar 3 and the hanging mechanism 6
There is no room for displacement between the two, and the hanging operation can be performed reliably and quickly. In this regard, in the case of the conventional apparatus in which the sausage group is operated left and right by the chute, a positional shift occurs between the sausage group on the drum and the sausage group swung right and left by the chute. May not be reliably carried out. Further, in the case of the conventional apparatus, the length of the sausage group hanging down from the drum is large, and there is a disadvantage that the tail portion falls off the drum due to its weight, but such disadvantage can be solved.

According to the hanging mechanism 6 comprising the revolving table 25, the revolving mechanism 26 for reciprocating the revolving table 25, and the sending mechanism 27 including the winding transmission 36 for sending out the sausage group G, the drum is used. Since the contact length between the sausage group G and the sending mechanism 27 can be increased as compared with the case where the sausage group is fed by the above method, the sausage group G can be always intermittently and accurately fed at a constant speed with no excess or shortage.

According to the pre-stage feeding mechanism 5 for intermittently feeding the hanging rod 3 by the extruding mechanism 11, only the extruding mechanism 11 needs to reciprocate between the pre-feed start end position and the pre-feed end position. As compared with a conventional apparatus that reciprocates a carriage for supporting a hanging rod, the entire structure of the pushing mechanism 11 can be downsized, and the structure of the rod hanging apparatus can be simplified accordingly.

According to the rear feeding mechanism 7 for capturing and fixing the tip of the hanging rod 3 sent by the first feeding mechanism 5 with the rod receiving arm 49 and continuously feeding the hanging rod 3 intermittently, the sausage is to be started. Since the rear half of the hanging bar 3 on which the group G is hung can be opened, the sausage group G can be hung without trouble even when the total number of sausages exceeds a standard value.

According to the take-out mechanism 8 which supports the front and rear ends of the hanging rod 3 with a pair of take-out arms 67 which swing up and down and transfers it to the outside of the delivery path, the receiving frame 6 disposed above the previous delivery path.
The transfer of the hanging rod 3 to 9 can be reliably performed by a swing mechanism having a simpler structure.

When the feed path of the hanging bar 3 is provided at a position penetrating the turning shaft 28, the swinging operation of the hanging mechanism 6 with respect to the hanging bar 3 is made uniform on the left and right sides, and the hanging operation of the sausage group G is reliably performed. Can be In particular, when the hanging mechanism 6 is made to stand by immediately above the feeding path, and each time the hanging bar 3 advances intermittently, the swivel 25 is reciprocated to the left or right to swing the sausage group G. Since the swing stroke of the swivel table 25 can be reduced, the swing of the sausage group G due to the swing can be suppressed as much as possible, so that the hanging operation can be performed accurately and quickly.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a gantry, and 2 denotes a table for receiving a sausage group G sent from a filling machine. A chute 4 for storing the hanging bar 3 is provided so as to penetrate into the lower surface of the table 2, and a pre-stage feeding mechanism 5 for pushing out the hanging bar 3 is disposed at the lower end of the slant of the chute 4. On one side of the upper surface of the table 2, a hanging mechanism 6 for hanging the sausage group G on the hanging bar 3 is provided.
A rear-stage feeding mechanism 7 that intermittently feeds the hanging rod 3 sent from the preceding-stage feeding mechanism 5 by sandwiching the feeding path of the hanging rod 3 to the left and right, and moves the hanging rod 3 out of the feeding path. An unloading mechanism 8 for transferring is arranged.

3 and 4, the front-stage feeding mechanism 5
Comprises a hanging rod supply mechanism 10 for feeding out one of a group of hanging rods 3 stored in the chute 4, and an extrusion mechanism 11 for intermittently pushing the hanging rod 3 in its longitudinal direction. In FIG. 3, a hanging bar supply mechanism 10 includes a stepped receiving frame 12 disposed at the lower end of the chute 4 and air cylinders 13 and 14 disposed before and after the receiving frame 12 to push up the hanging bar 3. Consists of When the lower air cylinder 13 is operated, one hanging rod 3 is pushed up to the upper receiving surface 12a. When the upper air cylinder 14 is operated, the hanging rod 3 on the receiving surface 12a passes over the upper end of the receiving frame 12 and is sent out to the chute 15 on the pushing mechanism 11 side.

In FIG. 4, an extruding mechanism 11 includes an extruding table 17 which is guided and supported by a pair of left and right guide shafts 16 so as to be slidable back and forth, a winding device for driving the extruding table 17 back and forth,
And a servomotor 18 with a reduction gear as a driving source thereof
And a hook-shaped feed arm 19 fixed to the side end of the extrusion table 17. The winding device is a pair of front and rear sprocket gears 20.
21 and a chain 2 wound around both gears 20 and 21
The extruding table 17 is fixed to one of the straight transition portions of the chain 22. As shown in FIG. 1, the feed arm 19 advances intermittently from a front feeding start end position (position a in FIG. 1) facing the rear end of the hanging bar 3, and moves the hanging bar 3 to a front feeding end position (FIG. 1). 1b
To the position).

In FIGS. 5 to 8, the hanging mechanism 6
Is a swivel 25 supported by the gantry 1 so as to be able to reciprocate around a vertical axis, a swivel mechanism 26 that intermittently reciprocates the swivel 25, and a sausage group G provided on the swivel 25.
And a sending mechanism 27 for intermittently feeding.

The revolving table 25 includes a base 29 fixed to the upper end of a revolving shaft 28 and a frame 3 erected on the base 29.
0, and a cover 31 fixed parallel to the frame 30
And the protruding end of the petal-shaped frame 30 is
The table 2 is provided so as to protrude forward from the front end. The delivery mechanism 27 is disposed between the frame 30 and the cover 31.

The delivery mechanism 27 includes a servomotor 33 with a speed reducer fixed to the outer surface of the frame 30 and a large-diameter sprocket gear 34 on the driving side fixed to the output shaft.
And a sprocket gear 35 having a small diameter on the driven side, which is disposed near the protruding end of the frame 30, a chain (wrapping transmission) 36 wound around both gears 34, 35, and a sausage group G fixed to the chain link. And a group of holding members 37 that perform a sending operation. In order to feed the sausage group G smoothly, the upper straight transition portion of the chain 36 is inclined downward toward the protruding end of the frame 30. As shown in FIG. 5, the holding members 37 are plate-shaped members provided with a V-shaped groove 38 for receiving the unit sausage, and are densely arranged at a small adjacent interval to the chain 36 as shown in FIG.
The unit sausage is securely held by a large number of holding bodies 37,
This is to prevent the sausage group G from sliding down by its own weight. The sausage group G gradually drops away from the holding body 37 near the front end around the driven sprocket gear 35, and the photo sensor 39 is arranged toward this vicinity (see FIG. 6). The number of passing unit sausages is counted. The reason will be described later.

In FIG. 5, the turning mechanism 26 is disposed on the lower surface of the table 2 and comprises a turning shaft 28, a winding transmission mechanism for reciprocatingly rotating the turning shaft 28, and a servomotor 40 with a speed reducer. The winding transmission mechanism includes a pair of sprocket gears 41 and 42 and a chain 43 wound around the two gears 41 and 42, and reduces the rotational power of the motor 40 and transmits it to the turning shaft 28. By rotating the motor 40 forward and backward, the revolving shaft 28 can be reciprocated.

The feed route of the hanging bar 3 described above passes through the center of the turning shaft 28. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 7, drum-shaped relief grooves 45 and 46 are provided in the upper portion of the turning shaft 28 and the upper portion of the bushing 44 supporting the turning shaft 28, respectively.
The suspension rod 3 can be fed without any trouble even when the turning shaft 28 is turned. The reason why the feed route of the hanging rod 3 intersects with the center of the turning shaft 28 in this manner is as follows.
The sending mechanism 27 is kept on standby just above the feeding path of the hanging bar 3, and from this standby state, the swivel 25 is reciprocated leftward or rightward, and the sausage group G is hung. This is for minimizing the 25 turning strokes and for quick hanging. This is also for reducing the number of unit sausages hanging from the sending mechanism 27 by shortening the vertical distance between the feeding path of the hanging bar 3 and the sending mechanism 27.

The second-stage feeding mechanism 7 receives the hanging rod 3 sent to the last feeding end position by the first-stage feeding mechanism 5, and intermittently feeds the hanging rod 3 as before. Specifically, a rod receiving arm 49 that captures and fixes the tip of the hanging rod 3, a slide table 50 that supports the rod receiving arm 49, a winding transmission mechanism that reciprocates the slide table 50, and a winding transmission mechanism It comprises a servomotor 51 with a speed reducer to be driven. The winding transmission mechanism is
A pair of front and rear sprocket gears 52 and 53;
A slide table 50, which is composed of a chain (wrapping transmission body) 54 wound around 53 and guided and supported by a pair of left and right guide shafts 55, is fixed to one of the linear transition portions of the chain 54.

, A pair of holding blocks 57 slidably guided by a guide shaft 56, and an air cylinder 58. The piston rod 59 of the air cylinder 58 is fixed to one holding block 57, and the cylinder body is connected to the other holding block 5.
7 fixed. Hanging rod 3 is provided on the opposite surface of both blocks 57
Is formed to form a semi-circular groove 61 for holding. When the piston rod 59 is protruded from the cylinder body, the pair of holding blocks 57 slide away from each other, and when the piston rod 59 is retracted, the two blocks 57 can approach and hold the hanging rod in place. The guide shaft 56 between the two holding blocks 57 is used for positioning when the hanging rod is fixed.
The stopper 60 is fixed on the upper part. The rod receiving arm 49 is provided between a post-feed start end position (position c in FIG. 1) approaching the pre-stage feed mechanism 5 and a post-feed end position (position d in FIG. 1) away from the pre-stage feed mechanism 5. You can go back and forth between.

The hanging rod 3 captured and fixed by the rod receiving arm 49 tends to bend and deform by the weight of the hung sausage group G from the vicinity where the rear end of the hanging rod 3 has passed through the pivot 28. In order to prevent such deformation of the hanging bar 3 and to perform the hanging operation reliably, a guide 63 for supporting the hanging bar 3 is provided between the turning shaft 28 and the sausage hanging position as shown in FIG. I have. The guide 63 is slidably supported by a guide shaft 64 fixed to the gantry 1.
After all the unit sausages are hung, the air cylinder 65 moves forward while the rear end of the hanging bar 3 is supported, and moves together with the hanging bar 3 to the post-feeding end position.

The take-out mechanism 8 is assembled on a pair of front and rear columns 66 erected on the gantry 1 facing the feed path of the hanging bar 3.
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 11, a pair of front and rear take-out arms 67 which are pivotally supported vertically so as to be arranged on each of the upper facing surfaces of both columns 66, and a swing mechanism for swinging the take-out arms 67. The take-out mechanism 8 is constituted by 68 and a pair of front and rear receiving frames 69 protruding from the upper end facing surface of the support column 66. A receiving portion 70 that supports the front and rear ends of the hanging bar 3 from the lower surface side is provided at the swinging tip of the take-out arm 67.

The oscillating mechanism 68 includes a drive shaft 72 supported between the lower ends of the columns 66, a drive sprocket gear 73 fixed to the drive shaft 72, a drive chain 74 wound around the gear 73, and a chain Tension spring 75 connected to one end and the other end of
6, and the rotational power of the drive shaft 72 is transmitted to the swing center axis of the take-out arm 67 by the winding transmission mechanism. The winding transmission mechanism is
A sprocket gear 77 is fixed to each shaft, and a chain 79 is wound around the two gears 77. 78. The driven sprocket gear 78 is fixed to the swing center shaft of the take-out arm 67. Hanging stick 3 of sausage group G
The arm 67 is waiting at the position W in FIG. From this state, the air cylinder 7
When the arm 6 is actuated against the urging force of the spring 75, the take-out arm 67 swings upward and comes into contact with the hanging bar 3. By further swinging upward, the hanging bar 3 is received at the upper end of the swing stroke by the receiving frame 69.
Transfer to Thereafter, the air cylinder 76 is operated in the reverse direction to immediately return to the standby position W.

Next, a series of operations of the rod hanging device will be described. On the table 2, the sausage group G filled by the filling machine is placed. The worker who attaches to the table 2 sets the intestinal material to the filling machine and sets the completed sausage group G.
Is set on the hanging mechanism 6. The sausage group G is placed on the sending mechanism 27 as shown in FIG. 6, and its front end portion is located closer to the detection optical path of the photosensor 39. The hanging bar 3 is sent out to the previous feeding start position and stands by. When the rod hanging device is started in this state, the hanging rod 3 is intermittently fed by the pushing mechanism 11, and the hanging mechanism 6 hangs the sausage group G on the hanging rod 3 in synchronization with the intermittent feeding operation. .

More specifically, the delivery mechanism 27 of the hanging mechanism 6
Is waiting just above the feed path of the hanging bar 3 as shown in FIG. 8, and while the hanging bar 3 is stopped, it is turned left (or right) to turn the sausage group G node. To the hanging bar 3. At the same time as the turning is completed, the sausage group G is sent out by the suspended number (two or three), and the unit sausage is hung below the nodal portion in a V-shape. Sending mechanism 2 at the same time
7 is returned to the position just above the feed path of the hanging bar 3 and turned again to wait again. After feeding the hanging bar 3 in this state, the sending mechanism 27 is turned to the right to bring the knot portion of the sausage group G into contact with the hanging bar 3 and further sent out by the number of hanging, and the unit sausage is V-shaped. And the delivery mechanism 27
Is returned to just above the feed path of the hanging bar 3. Since then
Similarly, the sausage group G is hung on the hanging bar 3 one after another. Reference symbol H in FIG. 8 indicates a standby position of the sending device 27 when the rod hanging device is presented.

When the leading end of the hanging rod 3 moves to the previous feeding end position, the rod receiving arm 4 of the rear feeding mechanism 7 which has been waiting until then.
9 nips and fixes the tip of the hanging bar 3 and intermittently feeds the hanging bar 3 in the same manner as the preceding feeding mechanism 5. The first-stage feeding mechanism 5 that has transferred the hanging bar 3 to the rod receiving arm 49 retracts to the preceding-feed start end position and waits until the next feeding starts. Meanwhile, the next hanging bar 3 is sent from the receiving frame 12 to the pushing mechanism 11 side. Thereafter, the rear end of the hanging bar 3 is supported by the guide 63. The suspending mechanism 6 continuously suspends the sausage group G on the suspending rod 3 intermittently fed by the rear-stage feeding mechanism 7 in the same manner as described above.

When the count number of the photo sensor 39, that is, the number of unit sausages hung on the hanging bar 3 reaches the specified number, if the sausage group G does not remain on the sending mechanism 27, the hanging bar 3 is fed to the post-feed end position. At this time, the guide 63 is operated forward by the air cylinder 65 while supporting the rear end of the hanging rod 3, and moves along with the hanging rod 3 to the post-feeding end position. However, if the sausage group G still remains on the delivery mechanism 27 even though the number of unit sausages has reached the specified number, the hanging device is temporarily stopped. Thereafter, the intermittent feed of the hanging bar 3 and the hanging of the remaining sausage group G by the hanging mechanism 8 are alternately performed by a switch operation of an operator facing the take-out mechanism 8, and the hanging bar 3 is operated.
To the post-feed end position.

When the hanging rod 3 moves to the post-feed end position,
The unloading mechanism 8 that has been waiting until then is activated, and the hanging rod 3
The supporting rod 3 is lifted up and rocked to transfer the front and rear ends to a receiving frame 69 provided on the upper side of the feeding path. During this time, the post-feeding mechanism 7 retreats to the post-feed start end position and stands by. Further, the take-out arm 67 also returns to the standby position. Thereafter, the cycle of feeding the hanging bar 3 and hanging the sausage group G is started again.
Suspension rod 3 taken out of the feed path and placed on receiving frame 69
Is transferred to a trolley or transferred to a consolidation conveyor and sent to the next process in response to a finishing process by an operator. The total number of unit sausages hung on the hanging bar 3 varies, and extra sausage may be hanging at the end. The worker performing the finishing process hangs the extra hanging sausage on the hanging bar 3 or removes the incomplete sausage from which the meat mass protrudes, and ties the last nodule.

In addition to the above embodiment, the sausage group G can be hung on the hanging bar 3 by sliding the entire hanging mechanism 6 left and right in a direction perpendicular to the feed direction of the hanging bar 3. The turning shaft 28 can be provided obliquely. The transmission element of the wrapping transmission device in the first-stage feeding mechanism 5, the second-stage feeding mechanism 7, and the like does not need to be a chain, and a timing belt can be applied. The rod receiving arm 49 can take a form in which the hanging rod 3 is vertically clamped and fixed. It is not always necessary to use the swing arm in the take-out mode of the hanging rod 3 in the take-out mechanism 8, and the hanging rod 3 is taken out of the feeding path by a member that reciprocates in a direction intersecting the feeding path of the hanging rod 3. be able to.
