Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、共同乾燥調製施設の荷受け方法及び荷受設備に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種の共同乾燥調製施設には、荷受設備、乾燥設備、調製設備及び貯蔵設備などが備えてあり、各農家で収穫された穀物を荷受けして前記乾燥設備で乾燥を行ない、施設の規模によっては乾燥した穀物を貯蔵タンクに貯蔵し、出荷する際に調製設備で調製を行なう施設である。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
昨今、農作物の生産者表示を行なう傾向になりつつある。そこで、上記共同乾燥調製施設で取り扱う穀物についても、他の生産者の穀物と混ぜ合わせることなく生産者ごとの穀物を個別に乾燥・調製・出荷が行えることが望まれてきている。前記共同乾燥調製施設の乾燥設備は、乾燥容量が、例えば1トンの乾燥装置を複数設けて構成される。生産者が持込んだ穀物(1荷口)を個別乾燥するには、荷受設備に設けた荷受計量機と前記乾燥設備との間に、待ちタンク及び計量機を設ける必要があった。前記待ちタンクには前記荷受計量機で総重量が計量された1荷口の穀物が一旦供給され、この待ちタンク内の穀物は前記計量機によって計量されながら、前記乾燥機の最低張込量(上記例では300キログラム)と最高張込量(上記例では1トン)とを考慮しながら乾燥機に張込んで、個別乾燥を行うようになっている。
【0004】
そこで、ある生産者が、例えば800キログラムの穀物を同施設に持込んだ場合には、最低張込量(上記例では300キログラム)以上で最高張込量(上記例では1トン)以下であるので、他の生産者の穀物と混合することなく1つの乾燥機に入れて個別乾燥を行なうことができる。しかしながら、持込み量が例えば、1.2トンであった場合には、1トンの穀物はすぐに乾燥が行われるが、前記乾燥機の乾燥容量の1トンを差し引いた0.2トンは前記乾燥機の最低張込量以下となるため、すぐには乾燥ができず、一旦所定の場所に待機させておき、同様にして残った他の生産者の半端な穀物と合わせ、最低張込量より量を増やして乾燥を行なわなければならなかった。このため、完全な個別乾燥が行えないという問題があった。
【0005】
本発明は、上記課題にかんがみ、生産者が持込んだ穀物(荷口)の個別乾燥が完全に行なえるようにするとともに、荷受装置を簡素化した共同乾燥調製施設の荷受け方法及び荷受装置を提供することを技術的課題とするものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するため、請求項1では、
切換弁を介して複数の待ちタンクを配設し、各待ちタンクには前記乾燥装置の乾燥容量以下の仕分けタンクを複数備え、荷受けした同一荷口の穀物は、各仕分けタンクの容量比に応じた量を各仕分けタンクに供給し、各仕分けタンク内に供給された穀物量を供給量検出手段からの検出信号に基いて把握し、把握した各仕分けタンク内の穀物量に応じて、前記乾燥装置への供給量が供給する乾燥装置の最低張込量以上最高張込量以下となるように各仕分けタンクから排出させる構成とする。上記荷受け方法によれば、同一荷口の穀物は、待ちタンクの各仕分けタンクに各仕分けタンクの容量比に応じて供給されるため、各仕分けタンクは同時に満量となる。一つの待ちタンクが満量になると、切換弁を切換えて別の待ちタンクの各仕分けタンクに供給される。そして、各仕分けタンク内に供給された穀物量は前記供給量検出手段からの検出信号に基いて把握しているので、各仕分けタンク内の同一荷口の穀物は、供給する前記乾燥装置の乾燥容量に応じた最低張込量以上最高張込量以下となるように個別に供給することができる。このため、従来必要であった前記計量機を使用することがない。
【0007】
また、請求項2では、前記待ちタンクが満量のものと、最低張込量以下の端量の待ちタンクとが生じたときには、前記端量待ちタンクの穀物と前記満量待ちタンクにおける少なくとも一つ以上の仕分けタンクの穀物とを組合わせて前記乾燥装置に供給する構成とした。これにより、最低張込量以下の端量の穀物を残すことなく、乾燥装置に仕分け供給することができる。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の好適な実施の形態を説明する。図1は、本発明の共同乾燥調製施設1の全体構成を示したものである。該共同乾燥調製施設1は荷受設備2、乾燥設備3、調製設備及び出荷設備から構成してある。前記荷受設備2は、荷受けホッパー4、荷受け計量機5及び待ちタンク6とから構成されており、それぞれの間は、図1で示したベルトコンベア4a,6bや昇降機4b,5a,6aなどにより、穀物が搬送れるようになっている。
【0009】
次に、本発明の特徴構成である前記待ちタンク6について詳細に説明する(図2及び図3参照)。図2は前記待ちタンク6の概要を示した側面図であり、図3は同待ちタンク6をより具体的に示した平面図である。前記待ちタンク6は並設した同一構成の第1待ちタンク7及び第2待ちタンク8から構成してある。これら第1及び第2待ちタンク7,8内は、容量が1トンの仕分けタンク7a,8a、容量が0.5トンの仕分けタンク7b,8b及び容量が0.5トンの仕分けタンク7c,8cが内設してある。図3に示したように、各第1及び第2待ちタンク7,8は、略正方形の枠内において、対角線方向に形成した仕切壁7d,8dによって仕切った一方側を、前記仕分けタンク7a,8aとし、他方側の容量を二等分するべく仕切壁7e,8eを形成して前記仕分けタンク7b,8b及び仕分けタンク7c,8cを形成し、設置面積を少スペース化してある。
【0010】
前記第1及び第2待ちタンク7,8の各上方には穀物分配装置9,10が設けてある。この穀物分配装置9,10は、穀物を流下させる管路11で基本的に構成してあり、その上流側は第1待ちタンク7又は第2待ちタンク8への穀物の供給を切り換える切換弁12が配設してあり、さらにその上流側は前記搬送装置の昇降機の排出側に接続してある。一方、各管路11の他方側は、前記仕分けタンク7a,8a、仕分けタンク7b,8b及び仕分けタンク7c,8cのそれぞれに穀物を導入する管路9a,10a,9b,10b,9c,10cが分岐して配設してある。
【0011】
前記穀物分配装置9,10の構成について、図4を参照しながら更に説明する。図4の(a)は側面図、同(b)は平面図を示す。前記各管路11には、穀物流下量を調節する整流板13が構成してある。該整流板13の穀物流下方向には管路11の通路面積を流下方向に沿って二等分する仕切壁14が構成してあり、該仕切壁14によって仕切られた一方側は、前記仕分けタンク7a,8aに向う管路15になっている。一方、他方側の管路19は、流下方向に沿って通路面積を更に二等分する仕切壁16が構成してあり、二等分された管路は、前記仕分けタンク7b,8bに向う管路17と前記仕分けタンク7c,8cに向う管路18とになっている。また、前記仕切壁16が配設された上流側の管路19内には、前記整流板13と同じ構成の整流板20が構成してある。これら整流板13,20は、該整流板13,20に設けた回動軸13a,20aを管路内の各対向面に枢着するとともに、整流板13,20と管路11との間にばね13b,20bを設け、管路15内を流下する穀物の圧力により、前記ばね13b,20bの付勢力に逆らって回動するようになっている。この回動により、下流側に連通する通路面積を均等にし、流下穀物を整流させる機能を有している。
【0012】
なお、前記仕分けタンク7a、仕分けタンク7b及び仕分けタンク7cのそれぞれには、下部には、穀物を繰出し排出する排出バルブ(排出部)21,22,23及び仕分けタンク内の穀物の有無を検知する穀物有無検知センサー24,25,26がそれぞれ設けてある。また、同様に前記仕分けタンク8a、仕分けタンク8b及び仕分けタンク8cのそれぞれには、下部に、穀物を繰出し排出する排出バルブ30,31,32及び仕分けタンク内の穀物の有無を検知する穀物有無検知センサー33,34,35がそれぞれ設けてある。
【0013】
前記乾燥設備3は、乾燥容量が1トンの循環式穀物乾燥機3aを複数台配置して構成してある。各循環式穀物乾燥機3aは、下部に、穀物に熱風を通風する乾燥部を有し、乾燥容量が1トンの本実施例の循環式穀物乾燥機3aにおいて、最低張込量は300キログラムである。前記待ちタンク6から排出された穀物は、昇降機6a及びベルトコンベア6bを介して乾燥設備3に搬送され、穀物は、前記各循環式穀物乾燥機3aに対応させてベルトコンベア6bに設けた切り換え弁を介して循環式穀物乾燥機3aに供給されるように構成してある。また、各循環式穀物乾燥機3aの下方にはベルトコンベアを配設し、排出された穀物を次工程である調製設備に搬送するように構成してある。該調製設備は籾摺機及び選別機が構成してあり、該調製設備の次工程には出荷工程として袋詰め機が構成してある。
【0014】
前記共同乾燥調製施設1における制御手段39を、図5に示したブロック図を参照しながら説明する。制御手段39は中央演算処理部40(以下、「CPU」という)を有し、該CPU40には、読み出し専用記憶部41(以下、「ROM」という)、書込み・読み出し兼用の記憶部42(以下、「RAM」という)及び入出力回路43がそれぞれ接続してある。該入出力回路43には、前記荷受け計量機5、切換弁12、第1待ちタンク7における各排出バルブ21,22,23、第1待ちタンク7における各穀物有無検知センサー24,25,26、第2待ちタンク8における各排出バルブ30,31,32、第2待ちタンク8における各穀物有無検知センサー33,34,35がそれぞれ接続してある。
【0015】
次に、上述の共同乾燥調製施設1の作用を説明する。前記荷受設備2において、生産者が持込んだ穀物(荷口)は、荷受けホッパー4からベルトコンベア4a及び昇降機4bを介して前記荷受け計量機5に、次いで昇降機5aを介して前記待ちタンク6に供給される。この待ちタンク6に穀物を供給するに当たり、前記切換弁12の流路は、予め第1待ちタンク7側にしておく。該第1待ちタンク7に供給される穀物量は前記荷受け計量機5によって測定され、この穀物量データに基いて前記CPU40は、前記第1待ちタンク7に供給している穀物量が2トンになると、前記切換弁12の流路が第2待ちタンク側に切換えるべく信号を発し、第2待ちタンク8に前記荷口を継続して供給させる。なお、本実施の形態においては、待ちタンク6の容量は4トンまでの荷口に対応するものとした。
【0016】
前記穀物分配装置9によって、仕分けタンク7a(容量1トン)、仕分けタンク7b(容量0.5トン)及び仕分けタンク7c(容量0.5トン)のそれぞれに各仕分けタンクの容量比に応じた量の穀物が分配供給される。すなわち、前記管路11を流下する穀物の圧力によって、前記整流板13はばね付勢力に抗して回動され、穀物は、この整流板13の回動によって形成された開口部を通過する際に整流されて流下される。この整流されて流下する穀物は、通路面積が二等分された前記管路15と管路19とに均等に分けられて入り、管路15を流下する穀物は前記仕分けタンク7aに供給される。一方、前記管路19を流下する穀物は、該穀物の流下圧力によって、前記整流板20がばね付勢力に抗して回動され、この回動によって形成された開口部を介して整流されて流下し、この後、この整流されて流下する穀物は、通路面積が二等分された前記管路17と管路18とに均等されて入り、管路17を流下する穀物は前記仕分けタンク7bに、また、管路18を流下する穀物は前記仕分けタンク7cに供給それぞれされる。
【0017】
詳細な説明は省略するが、前記穀物分配装置10も、上述の穀物分配装置9と同じ作用を行い、仕分けタンク8a(容量1トン)、仕分けタンク8b(容量0.5トン)及び仕分けタンク8c(容量0.5トン)のそれぞれに、各仕分けタンクの容量比に応じた量の穀物を分配供給する。
【0018】
次に、生産者が持込んだ穀物(荷口)を、前記循環式穀物乾燥機3aの最低張込量以上と最高張込量以下を考慮して仕分ける具体例について説明する(図6参照)。図6の(1)には、第1待ちタンク7及び第2待ちタンク8内に構成された前記各仕分けタンク7a,7b,7c,8a,8b,8cの各容量及び各排出バルブ21,22,23,30,31,32が示してある。以下、図6の(2)〜(7)に異なる穀物(荷口)量ごとの仕分け例を説明する。図6の(2)〜(7)の符号は省略し、図6の(1)を参照することとする。
【0019】
図6の(2)は荷口が0.3トン以上(最低張込量)1トン未満の例である。この場合、仕分けタンク7a,7b,7cの総重量は1トン未満で前記最高張込量以下であるため、排出バルブ21,22,23から同時に同じ循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した前記排出バルブ21,22,23の駆動制御を行なう。
【0020】
図6の(3)は荷口が1トン以上2トン未満の例である。この場合、仕分けタンク7aには0.5トン〜1トン未満、また、仕分けタンク7b,7cの総重量には0.5トン〜1トン未満の各供給量となっている。そして、仕分けタンク7aの穀物と、仕分けタンク7b,7cの穀物とは別々の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した排出バルブの駆動制御を行なう。
【0021】
図6の(4)は荷口が2トン以上2.5トン未満の例である。この場合、前記荷受け計量機5の計量によって、第1待ちタンク7の容量の2トンを超えると、切換弁12を切換えて第2待ちタンク8に穀物を継続して供給するようにする。この荷受けが終了すると、仕分けタンク7aには1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク7bには0.5トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク7c,8a,8b,8cには総重量0.5トン〜1トン未満の穀物がそれぞれ供給された状態になる。そして、仕分けタンク7aの1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク7bの0.5トンの穀物、及び仕分けタンク7c,8a,8b,8cの総重量0.5トン〜1トン未満の穀物は、それぞれ別々の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した排出バルブの駆動制御を行なう。
【0022】
図6の(5)は荷口が2.5トン以上3トン未満の例である。この場合、荷口の荷受けが終了すると、仕分けタンク7aには1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク7b,7cには総重量1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク8a,8b,8cには総重量0.5トン〜1トン未満の穀物がそれぞれ供給された状態となり、仕分けタンク7aの1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク7b,7cの総重量1トンの穀物、及び仕分けタンク8a,8b,8cの総重量0.5トン〜1トン未満の穀物は、それぞれ別々の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した排出バルブの駆動制御が行なわれる。
【0023】
図6の(6)は荷口が3トン以上3.5トン未満の例である。この場合、荷口の荷受けが終了すると、仕分けタンク7aには1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク7b,7cには総重量1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク8aには0.5トン〜0.75トン未満の穀物が、仕分けタンク8b,8cには総重量0.5トン〜0.75トン未満の穀物がそれぞれ供給された状態となる。仕分けタンク7aの1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク7b,7cの総重量1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク8aの0.5トン〜0.75トン未満の穀物、仕分けタンク8b,8cの総重量0.5トン〜0.75トン未満の穀物は、それぞれ別々の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した排出バルブの駆動制御が行なわれる。
【0024】
図6の(7)は荷口が3.5トン以上4トン未満の例である。この場合、荷口の荷受けが終了すると、仕分けタンク7aには1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク7b,7cには総重量1トンの穀物が、仕分けタンク8aには0.75トン〜1トン未満の穀物が、仕分けタンク8b,8cには総重量0.75トン〜1トン未満の穀物がそれぞれ供給された状態となる。仕分けタンク7aの1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク7b,7cの総重量1トンの穀物、仕分けタンク8aの0.75トン〜1トン未満の穀物、仕分けタンク8b,8cの総重量0.75トン〜1トン未満の穀物は、それぞれ別々の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく対応した排出バルブの駆動制御が行われる。
【0025】
なお、各仕分けタンクの排出バルブの駆動停止は、前記各穀物有無検知センサー24,25,26,33,34,35からの信号を受けて行われる。
【0026】
以上のように、荷口の量が変化しても、待ちタンク6によって穀物を所定量ごとに区分し、前記循環式穀物乾燥機3aの最低張込量(300キログラム)以上と最高張込量(1トン)以下となる量の穀物を各循環式穀物乾燥機3aに張込むべく排出バルブを駆動させることにより、最低張込量以下の半端量の穀物を生じさせることがないので、完全な個別乾燥が行えることになる。また、従来必要であった待ちタンク及び計量機の代わりに、待ちタンク6を設ればよいので、荷受設備2の簡略化ともなる。
【0027】
本発明における前記各仕分けタンクの容量は、上記実施例で示した例に限定されるものではなく、乾燥装置の乾燥容量以下であればよい。すなわち、例えば、待ちタンクは、0.5トンの容量の仕分けタンクを4つから構成してもよいし、または、1トンのタンクを一つと0.3トンの容量のタンクを2つと0.2トンの容量のタンクを2つから構成するようにしてもよい。また、本発明における乾燥装置の容量についても、同一のものだけではなく、異なる乾燥容量のものであってもよい。この異なる乾燥容量の乾燥装置を備える場合には、前記制御手段39に各乾燥装置の乾燥容量を記憶させておき、各仕分けタンクの穀物を各乾燥装置に仕分け供給するようにすればよい。
【0028】
本発明の前記乾燥設備3は、上記実施の形態で示した、複数の循環式穀物乾燥機3aに限るものではなく、本出願人の特許第2787877号等に開示されている、いわゆるラック式乾燥設備44であってもよい(図7参照)。該ラック式乾燥設備44を概略説明すると、複数段の棚45を有し、各棚には、乾燥用のコンテナ46がスタッカークレーン47で収納と取出しとが自在にできるようになされてある。そして、熱風発生装置からの乾燥風を各棚に誘導する配管48が配設してあり、乾燥風は各棚において、下部が通風可能な多孔板で構成された前記コンテナ46(乾燥装置)の底部からコンテナ内の穀物に送風し、乾燥を行なうものである。このラック式乾燥設備44においても、コンテナ46内の穀物が所定量以下であると、コンテナごとの風量調節機能がないので過乾燥になりやすいため、コンテナ46に供給する穀物量は少なくとも最低供給量以上が必要となる。該最低供給量は、コンテナ46の容量が1トンの場合には300キログラムとなる。本発明によれば、乾燥設備3がこのラック式乾燥設備44であっても、前述のように、荷口は前記待ちタンク6を用いることにより、最低供給量以上で、かつ、最高供給量以下の穀物を他の生産者の荷口と混合することなく前記コンテナ46に個別に供給して完全な個別乾燥を行なうことができる。ラック式乾燥設備44を用いた場合には、多数の荷口を荷受けすることができるメリットがある。
【0029】
上記実施の形態では、荷受設備2に荷受け計量機5を設けたが、本発明によれば、前記荷受け計量機5を使用しなくとも、荷口単位での個別乾燥やその後の調製・出荷工程が行える。これを可能とするために、各仕分けタンク内の下部から上部に沿って適宜間隔で堆積穀物の量を検出する穀物レベルセンサーを配設する(図示せず)。作用を説明すると、各仕分けタンクの容量が分かっているので、荷受けした荷口の量は、前記待ちタンク6に設けた穀物レベルセンサーの信号の有無によって把握できる。そして、上記循環式穀物乾燥機又はコンテナには前記所定量の穀物を供給し個別乾燥を行なう。乾燥終了後、調製工程においても他の荷口と混合されないように個別扱いで調製し、さらに、出荷工程で計量・袋詰め後に出荷となる。この出荷工程での計量により、生産者への料金の支払いや、施設利用費等を算出すればよい。なお、乾燥時間を算出するために、荷受けのときに水分値を測定しておくのが好ましい。
【0030】
【発明の効果】
本発明は、荷受けした同一荷口の穀物を、乾燥装置の乾燥容量以下の仕分けタンクを複数備えた各待ちタンクに、各仕分けタンクの容量比に応じた量を供給し、各仕分けタンク内に供給された穀物量を供給量検出手段からの検出信号に基いて把握し、把握した各仕分けタンク内の穀物量に応じて、前記乾燥装置への供給量が供給する乾燥装置の最低張込量以上最高張込量以下となるように各仕分けタンクから排出させる構成としたので、各仕分けタンクに仕分け供給した同一荷口の穀物を、乾燥装置に最低張込量以上最高張込量以下となるように個別に供給できるとともに、乾燥装置に仕分け供給するための計量機を使用しないので、荷受設備を簡素化することができる。
【0031】
また、待ちタンクが満量のものと、最低張込量以下の端量の待ちタンクとが生じたときには、前記端量待ちタンクの穀物と前記満量待ちタンクにおける少なくとも一つ以上の仕分けタンクの穀物とを組合わせて前記乾燥装置に供給する構成としたので、最低張込量以下の端量の穀物を残すことなく、同一荷口の穀物を全て乾燥装置に仕分け供給することができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method and a facility for receiving goods at a co-drying preparation facility.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, this type of co-drying preparation facility is equipped with a receiving facility, a drying facility, a preparation facility, a storage facility, and the like, and receives grains harvested by each farmer and performs drying in the drying facility. Depending on the scale, it is a facility that stores dried cereals in storage tanks and prepares them with preparation equipment when shipping.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In recent years, there has been a tendency to display producers of agricultural products. Therefore, it has been desired that the grain handled by the above-mentioned co-drying preparation facility can be dried, prepared, and shipped individually for each producer without being mixed with grains of other producers. The drying equipment of the co-drying preparation facility is configured by providing a plurality of drying devices having a drying capacity of, for example, 1 ton. In order to individually dry the grains (one cargo port) brought by the producer, it was necessary to provide a waiting tank and a weighing machine between the receiving and weighing machine provided in the receiving facility and the drying facility. The waiting tank is once supplied with one grain of grain whose total weight has been weighed by the receiving and weighing machine, and the grains in the waiting tank are weighed by the weighing machine while the minimum filling amount of the dryer (the above-described amount). Taking into consideration the maximum inflation amount (1 ton in the above example) and the maximum inflation amount (300 kg in the example), individual drying is performed by inflation into the dryer.
[0004]
Therefore, when a certain producer brings in, for example, 800 kilograms of grain to the facility, the amount of the minimum stake is 300 kg in the above example and the maximum stake is 1 ton or less in the above example. Thus, individual drying can be performed in one dryer without being mixed with grains of other producers. However, when the carry-in amount is, for example, 1.2 tons, 1 ton of the grain is dried immediately, but 0.2 ton obtained by subtracting 1 ton of the drying capacity of the dryer is the dry amount. Since it is less than the minimum filling amount of the machine, it can not be dried immediately, it must be waited at a predetermined place once, combined with the remaining grains of other producers in the same way, and Drying had to be carried out in increasing amounts. For this reason, there was a problem that complete individual drying could not be performed.

Driving control of a discharge valve corresponding to the circulation type grain dryer 3a is performed.
[0022]
FIG. 6 (5) is an example in which the cargo port is not less than 2.5 tons and less than 3 tons. In this case, when the receiving of the cargo ends is completed, the sorting tank 7a receives 1 ton of grain, the sorting tanks 7b and 7c receive 1 ton of gross grain, and the sorting tanks 8a, 8b and 8c receive the total weight of 0.5 ton. In this state, grains of 1 ton to less than 1 ton are supplied, and 1 ton of grains in the sorting tank 7a, 1 ton of total weight of the sorting tanks 7b and 7c, and 0.1% of total weight of the sorting tanks 8a, 8b, and 8c. For the grains of 5 to less than 1 ton, the drive control of the corresponding discharge valve is performed so that each of the grains is put into a separate circulating grain dryer 3a.
[0023]
(6) of FIG. 6 is an example in which the cargo port is 3 tons or more and less than 3.5 tons. In this case, when the receiving of the cargo ends is completed, the sorting tank 7a holds 1 ton of grain, the sorting tanks 7b and 7c hold 1 ton of total grain, and the sorting tank 8a has 0.5 to 0.75 ton.

Driving control of a corresponding discharge valve is performed so that grains of less than tons to less than 0.75 tons are respectively stuck to separate circulation type grain dryers 3a.
[0024]
FIG. 6 (7) is an example in which the cargo port is not less than 3.5 tons and less than 4 tons. In this case, when the receiving of the loading port is completed, the sorting tank 7a holds 1 ton of grain, the sorting tanks 7b and 7c hold 1 ton of total grain, and the sorting tank 8a holds 0.75 ton to less than 1 ton. The grains are supplied to the sorting tanks 8b and 8c with a total weight of 0.75 tons to less than 1 ton. 1 ton of grain in the sorting tank 7a, 1 ton of total grain in the sorting tanks 7b and 7c, 0.75 ton to less than 1 ton of grain in the sorting tank 8a, 0.75 ton of total weight of the sorting tanks 8b and 8c Driving control of a corresponding discharge valve is performed so that grains of less than 1 ton are respectively loaded into separate circulation type grain dryers 3a.
[0025]
The drive of the discharge valve of each sorting tank is stopped in response to a signal from each of the grain presence / absence detection sensors 24, 25, 26, 33, 34, and 35.
[0026]
As described above, even if the amount of the cargo port changes, the grains are divided by the waiting tank 6 into predetermined amounts, and the minimum filling amount (300 kilograms) and the maximum filling amount (300 kg) of the circulating grain dryer 3a are determined. By driving the discharge valve so that grains of less than 1 ton) can be loaded into each of the recirculating grain dryers 3a, there is no possibility of producing a fractional quantity of grains that is less than the minimum loading quantity. Drying can be performed. In addition, since the waiting tank 6 may be provided instead of the waiting tank and the weighing machine which are conventionally required, the load receiving facility 2 can be simplified.
[0027]
The capacity of each of the sorting tanks in the present invention is not limited to the example shown in the above embodiment, and may be any value as long as it is equal to or less than the drying capacity of the drying device. That is, for example, the waiting tank may be constituted by four sorting tanks each having a capacity of 0.5 ton, or one tank having a capacity of 1 ton and two tanks each having a capacity of 0.3 ton may be used. You may make it comprise two tanks of 2 tons capacity. Further, the capacity of the drying device in the present invention is not limited to the same, and may be different from each other. In the case where drying devices having different drying capacities are provided, the controller 39 may store the drying capacities of the respective drying devices, and the grains in the respective sorting tanks may be sorted and supplied to the respective drying devices.
[0028]
The drying equipment 3 of the present invention is not limited to the plurality of circulating grain dryers 3a described in the above embodiment, but is a so-called rack-type drying apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2778777 of the present applicant. The equipment 44 may be used (see FIG. 7). The rack-type drying equipment 44 will be briefly described. The rack-type drying equipment 44 has a plurality of shelves 45, and each of the shelves has a drying container 46 that can be freely stored and taken out by a stacker crane 47. A pipe 48 for guiding the drying air from the hot air generator to each shelf is provided, and the drying air is passed through the container 46 (drying device) in each shelf, the lower portion of which is formed of a perforated plate that can be ventilated. Air is blown from the bottom to the grains in the container and dried. Also in this rack-type drying equipment 44, if the amount of grain in the container 46 is less than a predetermined amount, the container 46 does not have a function of adjusting the air volume and tends to be overdried. Therefore, the amount of grain supplied to the container 46 is at least the minimum supply amount. The above is required. The minimum supply amount is 300 kilograms when the capacity of the container 46 is 1 ton. According to the present invention, even if the drying equipment 3 is the rack-type drying equipment 44, as described above, the cargo port is set to the minimum supply amount and the maximum supply amount by using the waiting tank 6. The grains can be individually supplied to the container 46 without mixing with the cargo of other producers, and complete individual drying can be performed. When the rack-type drying equipment 44 is used, there is an advantage that a large number of cargo ports can be received.
[0029]
In the above-described embodiment, the receiving and weighing machine 5 is provided in the receiving equipment 2. However, according to the present invention, even if the receiving and weighing machine 5 is not used, individual drying and subsequent preparation / shipping steps can be performed for each cargo port. I can do it. In order to make this possible, a grain level sensor for detecting the amount of the deposited grain is provided at appropriate intervals along the lower to upper portions in each sorting tank (not shown). In operation, since the capacity of each sorting tank is known, the amount of received cargo can be determined by the presence or absence of a signal from the grain level sensor provided in the waiting tank 6. Then, the above-mentioned predetermined amount of grains is supplied to the circulation type grain dryer or the container to perform individual drying. After the drying is completed, it is individually prepared so as not to be mixed with other consignments also in the preparation process, and is then shipped after weighing and bagging in the shipping process. Based on the measurement in the shipping process, payment of a fee to a producer, facility use cost, and the like may be calculated. In order to calculate the drying time, it is preferable to measure the moisture value at the time of receiving the cargo.
[0030]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, the received grains of the same loading port are supplied to respective waiting tanks provided with a plurality of sorting tanks having a drying capacity equal to or less than the drying capacity of the drying device in an amount corresponding to the capacity ratio of each sorting tank, and supplied into each sorting tank. Grain amount obtained is grasped based on the detection signal from the supply amount detection means, and according to the grasped grain amount in each sorting tank, the supply amount to the drying device is equal to or more than the minimum filling amount of the supplied drying device. Since it was configured to discharge from each sorting tank so as to be less than the maximum filling amount, the same loading grain that was sorted and supplied to each sorting tank was set to the drying device with the minimum filling amount and the maximum filling amount. Since it can be supplied individually and a weighing machine for sorting and supplying to the drying device is not used, the receiving equipment can be simplified.
[0031]
Further, when the waiting tank has a full tank and a waiting tank having an end amount equal to or smaller than the minimum filling amount, when the grain of the end waiting tank and at least one or more sorting tanks in the full waiting tank are used. Since the configuration is such that the grains are combined and supplied to the drying apparatus, all the grains in the same cargo port can be sorted and supplied to the drying apparatus without leaving an end amount of grains equal to or less than the minimum filling amount.
