Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、スポンジ板洗浄機において、スポンジ板を自動的に送り込み、全自動洗浄装置とすることを目的としたスポンジ板の自動送り装置及びスポンジ板洗浄装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来使用されているスポンジ板の自動洗浄機は、スポンジ板を作業者が一枚宛洗浄機に送り込む形式が多用されており、一部送り込み装置と洗浄機を具備した全自動スポンジ洗浄装置も提案されている。
【0003】
【特許文献1】実公昭61−33909
【0004】
【発明により解決しようとする課題】
前記従来のスポンジ洗浄機中、スポンジ板を作業者が送入する形式においては、作業者がスポンジ板を一枚宛送らなければならないので、重労働になるのみならず、能率向上の面からも問題点があった。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、手動送入式のスポンジ板自動洗浄機に、自動送り装置をセットすることにより、全自動スポンジ洗浄装置とすべく構成したスポンジ板の自動送り装置であって、従来使用されていたスポンジ洗浄機のスポンジ板の送り込み側に設置し、動力系を同期させるべく主として電気的に接続して、前記問題点を解決したのである。また、新しく製造する洗浄機にこの発明のスポンジ板の自動送り装置をセットして全自動スポンジ板洗浄装置とすることもできる。
【0006】
即ち、この発明は、複数のスポンジ板を積み上げ支持しておき、該スポンジ板を1枚分の厚さ宛間欠的に上昇させる間欠上昇手段と、前記スポンジ板を横方向へ送る送り込み手段と、前記各手段の制御手段とを結合させたことを特徴とするスポンジ板の自動送り装置であり、間欠上昇手段は、スポンジ板を1枚分の厚さ宛間欠的に上昇させる為に、上方へ間欠移動するようにチェーンを縦に並列架設し、該チェーンにスポンジ板の支持板を水平状に支持させ、前記チェーンを間欠移動すべくチェーンを架設したスプロケットの軸と駆動源とを連結したことを特徴とするものであり、送り込み手段は、スポンジ板を洗浄機側へ送るべくその側面を水平方向へ押圧できる往復摺動杆としたことを特徴とするものである。
【0007】
また、匣体の上下に、スポンジ板の進行方向と直角に横軸を回転自在に架設し、前記横軸の両端に夫々スプロケットを固着すると共に、前記スプロケットを上下1組として夫々チェーンを装着して一対のチェーンとし、該チェーンの中間部へ案内杆を設置し、該案内杆へ支持板の一側に設けた案内孔を昇降自在に嵌装し、前記支持板へ前記一対のチェーンに固定し、前記匣体の上部に、前記支持板により持ち上げられたスポンジ板を水平方向へ送る為の送り込み手段を設置したことを特徴とするスポンジ板の自動送り装置であり、送り込み手段は、スポンジ板の側面を押圧する押杆と、該押杆を水平方向へ往復移動させる間欠駆動手段とを結合させたことを特徴とするものであり、間欠駆動手段は、押杆を固定した基板を支杆とリンク杆を介して回転体に連結したことを特徴とするものである。
【0008】
次に、他の発明は、自動送り装置に、散水手段と加圧ローラを備えたスポンジ板の洗浄機を連結したことを特徴とするスポンジ板の自動送り装置付スポンジ板洗浄装置である。
【0009】
前記発明は、洗浄すべきスポンジ板を、例えば10枚〜16枚位支持板上へ載置し、支持板を昇降させるチェーンをスポンジ板の厚さ1枚分だけ間欠上昇させることにより、スポンジ板を1枚宛、送り出し位置にセットする。この場合に、スポンジ板はほぼ水平に支持され、その先端側(隅部又は前縁)が送り込みローラに達するまで送り出し、送り込みローラに喰え込ませる位置まで進ませる。
【0010】
前記送り込みは、洗浄の終了に合わせて行うことになる。例えば、スポンジ板の洗浄は、前記洗浄機内の洗浄を通常2往復〜4往復するので、その洗浄が終了するのに合わせて送り込む。即ち、前位のスポンジ板の洗浄が終了したならば、次位のスポンジ板を送り込みローラに喰え込ませる。
【0011】
前記は、支持板の間欠上昇をチェーンによって駆動したが、チェーンに代えてスクリューその他公知の手段によることもできる。
【0012】
この発明の装置は、自動洗浄機への自動送り込み装置であるが、既設の洗浄機に設置して使用するのであるから、制御系を電気的に接続し、制御する必要がある。
【0013】
この発明におけるスポンジ板には、散水し乍ら圧搾、膨張及び摺擦を繰り返し加えて洗浄する。このような操作を2往復〜4往復することによってスポンジ板に付着した生海苔その他の異物を確実に除去することができる。
【0014】
この発明においては、スポンジ板を複数枚積み上げ、これを1枚宛送り出すのであるから、1枚の厚さ分(約20mm)宛間欠的に上昇させなければならない。
【0015】
然して、この発明の装置は、スポンジ板の自動送り装置であるから、スポンジ板の洗浄終了と、送り込み開始とを同期させるのみで、他は従来の洗浄機をそのまま使用することができるが、この発明の自動送り装置を新しく製造する洗浄機と組み合わせて、全自動送り洗浄装置とすることを妨げるものではない。
【0016】
【発明の実施の形態】
この発明は、作業者がスポンジ板を支持板上へ多数枚積み上げ、装置を駆動させると、前記支持板が、前記スポンジ板の一枚の厚さ分の高さだけ間欠的に上昇することにより、支持板が停止すると、最上部のスポンジ板は、送り込み位置にほぼ水平に対向している。前記支持板が停止すると、送り込み手段が作動し(例えば、最上部のスポンジ板の高さをセンサーが検出して作動)、スポンジ板を押す為の押杆が前進し、押杆がスポンジ板の側縁を押圧してスポンジ板を進行方向に押し出す。
【0017】
前記のようにして、スポンジ板の先端部が送り込みローラに喰え込まれると、爾後スポンジ板は送り込みローラによって自動的に洗浄部へ進行する。
【0018】
前記送り込み手段の押杆のストロークは一定(調節可能)にしてあり、スポンジ板の先端部が送り込みローラに喰え込まれると、前記押杆は後退ストロークに移行するので、送り込みローラによるスポンジ板の送り速度と、押杆の押し出し速度との間に齟齬を生じるおそれはない。
【0019】
既設の洗浄機は、スポンジ板を2往復〜4往復繰り返して洗浄するので、この繰り返しと、洗浄の最終回を検出し、最終回洗浄の前進開始と同時に、前記送り込みを開始すれば、スポンジ板を連続させた状態で効率よく洗浄することができる。
【0020】
前記は、スポンジ板の上昇、停止と、送り込み手段の動作とを関連させて説明したが、最上部のスポンジ板が送り込まれ、押杆が後退したことを検出したならば、支持板を、スポンジ板の厚さの一枚分だけ上昇させておき、次の押杆の前進を待機させる。
【0021】
前記のように、この発明の送り装置は、既存の自動洗浄装置にセットして、該洗浄装置を全自動化させることができるが、この発明の送り装置を備えたスポンジ板洗浄装置を新しく製造することを妨げるものではない。
【0022】
【実施例】
この発明の実施例を図面に基づいて説明する。図1は、既存のスポンジ板洗浄機1に、この発明の自動送り装置10をセットした概念図である。前記において、既存のスポンジ板洗浄機1の左側(図1)に、この発明の自動送り装置10をセットし、スポンジ板3を左側から1枚宛矢示2のように送り込むと、矢示4のように進行させて洗浄し(往復洗浄)、洗浄終了後、矢示5のように受箱6内へ収容する。スポンジ板洗浄機1の下部へ台7を敷いて自動送り装置10と、スポンジ板洗浄機1の高さを合わせることができる。
【0023】
前記自動送り装置10の間欠送り装置10aは、図3中、匣体11の一側上下に、回転軸12、12aを平行に架設し、各回転軸12、12aの両端へ夫々スプロケット13、13aを固定し、上下対応する各スプロケット13、13aへ夫々チェーン14、14を装着する。前記匣体11の一側(回転軸側)中央部へ、案内杆15を垂直に植設し、該案内杆15へ、前記チェーン14、14の同高部へ固定した支持板16の案内孔16aを嵌装して、チェーン14、14の昇降に伴って支持板16が水平に保持されたまま安定して昇降できるようにしてある。図中8、8は底部から上部まで高く設けたスポンジ板の案内板、38は支持板16の支板、39は受箱の台である(図1)。
【0024】
前記実施例における自動送り装置10の送り込み装置10bは、図4のように、モータ17の軸にボス18を介してアーム19を突設し、アーム19の先端に連結具9を介してリンク杆21の一端を回転自在に取り付け、リンク杆21の他端を連結杆23の下端に取り付け、連結杆23の上端に支板24を取り付け、支板24の両縁に案内ローラ25、25を回動可能に取り付けると共に、前記支板24の前縁部(押杆側)上に、支軸26、26を取り付け、支軸26にカラー27aを介して基板27を回転自在に取り付け、基板27へ押杆22を固定する。
【0025】
前記押杆22は直角状に開いており、前記スポンジ板3の側面に当接できる角度で固着されている。この実施例では、スポンジ板3の対角を進行方向と平行にするので、押杆22、22の角度θは進行方向に対し、ほぼ45度になる。また、押杆22は、案内杆40によって傾斜しているので、押杆22は前進に伴ってスポンジ板3を若干上方へ突き上げる。従って、上下スポンジ板の当接摩擦が小さくなり、その前進を容易にする。
【0026】
前記において、モータ17の軸の回転により、アーム19が矢示20の方向へ回転すると(図4(a))、リンク杆21が矢示28の方向へ移動するので(図4(a))、支板24と、押杆22、22も同方向(矢示29)へ移動する(図4(c))。従って、スポンジ板3を矢示2の方向へ押し出すことになる。前記スポンジ板3は、その隅部3aがまず送りローラ33、33に喰え込まれ(図1)、送りローラ33、33の回転(矢示41、41)によって、スポンジ板3を矢示29の方向へ押し込む(図4(c))。
【0027】
前記のようにして、スポンジ板3が洗浄機1内へ送り込まれると、加圧ローラ30、30、羽根ローラ31、31、加圧ローラ32、32、羽根ローラ34、34、加圧ローラ35、35により加圧ローラ30、32、35の加圧と、羽根ローラ31、34の摺擦作用を受けると共に、水管36、36からシャワーして、スポンジ板3を洗浄する。前記において、加圧ローラ33、30は、スプロケット42、42a、チェーン43によって同期回転している。
【0028】
前記のようにして、スポンジ板3が、図1中右側の受台48上へ達したならば、センサー37によって、モータの回路を切替え、各ローラを前記と逆転させて、スポンジ板3を矢示60のように逆方向の送り込み側へ送り返す。この場合にも、シャワーを継続して洗浄を続ける。図中44はコロであって、スポンジ板3の進行を円滑にしている。
【0029】
前記実施例は、センサー37によって逆送したけれども、タイマーにより2往復〜4往復をセットし、設定回数だけ洗浄を繰り返すこともできる。
【0030】
前記のように、支持板16上へスポンジ板3を積み上げ(例えば、10枚〜16枚)スイッチを入れると、間欠送り装置10aが作動して、前記支持板16を、スポンジ板1枚分上昇させて押し込み位置に停止する。ついで、送り込み装置10bが作動する。
【0031】
また、前記スポンジ板3の最上部が、押し込み位置にある場合は、スイッチを入れると、送り込み装置10bが作動して、スポンジ板3を図4−(a)矢示2のように押杆22が前進して、スポンジ板3の先端3aが送りローラ33、33に喰え込まれる。
【0032】
前記におけるスポンジ板3の位置(送り込み位置)は、センサー45(図1)によって検出され、制御装置に入力される。
【0033】
前記のようにして洗浄されたスポンジ板3が、受板48上へ押し出されると、センサー37が作動して、各ローラが逆転し、スポンジ板3は矢示46のように、コロ44の位置まで戻される。
【0034】
ここで、センサー47が作動して各ローラを再び正転させ、洗浄を開始する。このようにして、設定回数(例えば、3往復)だけ洗浄したならば、前記センサー37が作動しなくなり、受板48上へ残される。この場合に、最終回のスポンジ板3の洗浄開始と同時に、送り込み装置10bが作動して、次に洗浄するべきスポンジ板3を送り込むので、スポンジ板3は連続して洗浄される。
【0035】
前記のようにして、次位のスポンジ板3bの第1回目の洗浄が終わると、スポンジ板3bの先端が受板上に残っている洗浄済みの前位のスポンジ板3を矢示49のように押すので、スポンジ板3は矢示5のように受箱6内へ落下し、順次積み上げられる。
【0036】
前記のようにして、最終のスポンジ板まで連続かつ自動的に洗浄される(図6)。
【0037】
かくて各スポンジ板3は2往復〜4往復洗浄されて洗浄を終了する。この洗浄終了は、センサー37によりカウントし、検出があれば、前記各ローラの逆回転を中止して、スポンジ板3は受台48上へ出される。受台48上へ出されたスポンジ板3は、次位に洗浄されたスポンジ板3aによって箱6の上方へ押し出され、自重により箱(又は篭)6内へ積み上げられる。
【0038】
前記実施例は、間欠送り装置10aの支持板16をチェーンで間欠上昇させたが、チェーンに代えて、ねじ杆51を使用することもできる(図5−b)。図5−bの実施例の場合には、支持板16の一端に雌螺子の螺孔52を設け、この螺孔52に前記ねじ杆51を螺合させ、ねじ杆51をステップモータ53(図示していない)で回転させれば、支持板16を常時スポンジ板の厚さ宛上昇させることができる。
【0039】
図5−(b)中54、54は支持板16の基部に設けた案内ローラ、55は案内壁、図1中56、57はステップモータ53の軸の回転をチェーンの回転軸に伝導するベーベルギヤーである。前記ねじ杆51の回転は、適宜駆動力によるものとする。
【0040】
前記各実施例における加圧ローラ、羽根ローラなどの形状、数、配置については特定されないので、この発明の装置は、送り込み、洗浄、繰り返しなどの同期により従来使用したスポンジ板洗浄装置は何れも使用することができる。
【0041】
【発明の効果】
この発明は、スポンジ板送り装置のない洗浄機又は既設の洗浄機にスポンジ板送り装置をセットして全自動洗浄装置とし得る効果がある。また、新しいタイプの全自動洗浄装置とすることもできる。
【0042】
この発明によれば、複数枚のスポンジ板を支持板上へ積み重ねるのみで、スポンジ板は一枚宛自動送りされて、自動洗浄できるので、作業者の労力、時間を著しく節減できる効果がある。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a sponge plate automatic feeding device and a sponge plate cleaning device for automatically feeding a sponge plate in a sponge plate cleaning machine to be a fully automatic cleaning device.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally used sponge plate automatic washing machines often use a type in which an operator sends one sponge plate to the washing machine, and a fully automatic sponge washing device equipped with a partial feeding device and a washing machine is also proposed. Have been.
[0003]
[Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-33909
[0004]
Problems to be solved by the present invention
In the conventional sponge washing machine, in the type in which the worker sends a sponge plate, the worker must send one sponge plate, which causes not only heavy labor but also a problem in terms of improving efficiency. There was a point.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention relates to a sponge plate automatic feeder configured to be a fully automatic sponge washing device by setting an automatic feeder in a manual feeding type sponge plate automatic washer, which has been conventionally used. The problem was solved by installing the sponge washing machine on the sponge plate feeding side and electrically connecting it mainly to synchronize the power system. Also, the automatic sponge plate cleaning apparatus of the present invention can be set in a newly manufactured cleaning machine to provide a fully automatic sponge plate cleaning apparatus.
[0006]
That is, according to the present invention, a plurality of sponge plates are stacked and supported, and an intermittent rising unit that intermittently raises the sponge plates in a thickness of one sheet, a feeding unit that sends the sponge plates in a lateral direction, The sponge plate automatic feeder is characterized in that it is combined with the control means of each of the above means, and the intermittent raising means moves upward to intermittently raise the sponge plate to a thickness of one sheet. A chain is vertically installed in parallel so as to intermittently move, a support plate of a sponge plate is horizontally supported by the chain, and a sprocket shaft on which the chain is installed and a drive source are connected to intermittently move the chain. The feeding means is a reciprocating sliding rod capable of pressing a side surface of the sponge plate in a horizontal direction in order to send the sponge plate to the washing machine side.
[0007]
Also, a horizontal axis is rotatably mounted on the upper and lower sides of the housing in a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the sponge plate, and sprockets are fixed to both ends of the horizontal axis, and a chain is attached to each of the upper and lower sprockets. A pair of chains, a guide rod is installed at an intermediate portion of the chain, and a guide hole provided on one side of the support plate is fitted to the guide rod so as to be able to move up and down, and fixed to the support plate to the pair of chains. An automatic feeding device for a sponge plate, wherein a feeding means for feeding a sponge plate lifted by the support plate in a horizontal direction is provided at an upper portion of the housing, wherein the feeding means comprises a sponge plate. A push rod for pressing the side surface of the push rod, and intermittent drive means for reciprocating the push rod in the horizontal direction, wherein the intermittent drive means supports the substrate on which the push rod is fixed. Via link rod It is characterized in that it has connected to the rotary body Te.
[0008]
Next, another invention is a sponge plate cleaning device with an automatic sponge plate feeding device, wherein a sponge plate cleaning device provided with a water sprinkling means and a pressure roller is connected to the automatic feeding device.
[0009]
According to the invention, a sponge plate to be cleaned is placed on, for example, about 10 to 16 support plates, and a chain for raising and lowering the support plate is intermittently raised by one sponge plate thickness. Is set to the sending position for one sheet. In this case, the sponge plate is supported substantially horizontally, and the sponge plate is fed out until its leading end (corner or leading edge) reaches the feed roller, and is advanced to a position where it is bitten by the feed roller.
[0010]
The feeding is performed at the end of the cleaning. For example, when washing the sponge plate, the washing in the washing machine normally reciprocates two to four times, and is sent in accordance with the end of the washing. That is, when the cleaning of the preceding sponge plate is completed, the next sponge plate is fed into the feed roller.
[0011]
In the above, the intermittent rising of the support plate is driven by a chain, but a screw or other known means may be used instead of the chain.
[0012]
The device of the present invention is an automatic feeding device to an automatic washing machine, but since it is installed and used in an existing washing machine, it is necessary to electrically connect and control a control system.
[0013]
The sponge plate in the present invention is washed by repeatedly applying squeezing, swelling and rubbing while sprinkling water. By repeating such an operation two to four times, the raw seaweed and other foreign substances attached to the sponge plate can be reliably removed.
[0014]
In the present invention, since a plurality of sponge plates are stacked and sent out one by one, they must be intermittently raised by the thickness of one sheet (about 20 mm).
[0015]
However, since the device of the present invention is an automatic sponge plate feeding device, only the end of cleaning of the sponge plate and the start of feeding can be synchronized, and other devices can use the conventional cleaning machine as it is. It does not prevent the automatic feeder of the invention from being combined with a newly manufactured washing machine to form a fully automatic feeder.
[0016]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
According to the present invention, when a worker stacks a large number of sponge plates on a support plate and drives the apparatus, the support plate intermittently rises by a height corresponding to the thickness of one sponge plate. When the support plate stops, the uppermost sponge plate is substantially horizontally opposed to the feeding position. When the support plate stops, the feeding means operates (for example, a sensor detects the height of the uppermost sponge plate), the push rod for pushing the sponge plate moves forward, and the push rod moves toward the sponge plate. The side edges are pressed to push the sponge plate in the direction of travel.
[0017]
As described above, when the leading end of the sponge plate is bitten by the feed roller, the sponge plate then automatically advances to the cleaning section by the feed roller.
[0018]
The stroke of the push rod of the feeding means is constant (adjustable), and when the tip of the sponge plate is bitten by the feed roller, the push rod shifts to a retreat stroke, so that the feed roller feeds the sponge plate. There is no risk of inconsistency between the speed and the pushing speed of the push rod.
[0019]
Since the existing washing machine repeatedly cleans the sponge plate 2 to 4 reciprocations, the repetition and the last cleaning are detected, and simultaneously with the start of the final cleaning, the feeding is started. Can be efficiently cleaned in a state where is continued.
[0020]
Although the above description has been made in connection with the raising and stopping of the sponge plate and the operation of the feeding means, if it is detected that the uppermost sponge plate has been fed and the push rod has receded, the support plate is moved to the sponge plate. The plate is raised by one sheet thickness, and the next push rod is advanced.
[0021]
As described above, the feeding device of the present invention can be set in an existing automatic cleaning device to fully automate the cleaning device. However, a sponge plate cleaning device equipped with the feeding device of the present invention is newly manufactured. It does not prevent that.
[0022]
【Example】
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram in which an automatic feeder 10 of the present invention is set in an existing sponge plate washer 1. In the above, the automatic feeder 10 of the present invention is set on the left side (FIG. 1) of the existing sponge plate washer 1, and the sponge plate 3 is fed one by one from the left side as indicated by arrow 2, as shown by arrow 4. (Reciprocating washing), and after the washing is completed, it is housed in the receiving box 6 as shown by arrow 5. The height of the automatic feeder 10 and the height of the sponge plate washer 1 can be adjusted by laying the table 7 below the sponge plate washer 1.
[0023]
The intermittent feeder 10a of the automatic feeder 10 has a structure in which rotating shafts 12 and 12a are laid in parallel on one side of a casing 11 in FIG. 3 and sprockets 13 and 13a are respectively provided on both ends of the rotating shafts 12 and 12a. And the chains 14, 14 are mounted on the sprockets 13, 13a corresponding to the upper and lower sides, respectively. A guide rod 15 is vertically implanted in the center of one side (rotating shaft side) of the housing 11, and a guide hole of a support plate 16 fixed to the guide rod 15 at the same height of the chains 14, 14. The support plate 16 is stably moved up and down while the support plate 16 is held horizontally as the chains 14 are raised and lowered. In the figure, reference numerals 8 and 8 denote a guide plate of a sponge plate provided from the bottom to the top, 38 denotes a support plate of the support plate 16, and 39 denotes a receiving box base (FIG. 1).
[0024]
As shown in FIG. 4, the feeding device 10 b of the automatic feeding device 10 in the embodiment has an arm 19 protruding from a shaft of a motor 17 via a boss 18, and a link rod at a tip end of the arm 19 via a connecting member 9. One end of the connecting rod 21 is rotatably attached, the other end of the link rod 21 is attached to the lower end of the connecting rod 23, the support plate 24 is mounted on the upper end of the connecting rod 23, and the guide rollers 25, 25 are turned around both edges of the support plate 24. In addition to being movably mounted, support shafts 26 and 26 are mounted on the front edge (push rod side) of the support plate 24, and a substrate 27 is rotatably mounted on the support shaft 26 via a collar 27a. The push rod 22 is fixed.
[0025]
The push rod 22 is open at a right angle, and is fixed at an angle that can abut the side surface of the sponge plate 3. In this embodiment, since the diagonal of the sponge plate 3 is parallel to the traveling direction, the angle θ of the push rods 22 is approximately 45 degrees with respect to the traveling direction. Further, since the push rod 22 is inclined by the guide rod 40, the push rod 22 slightly pushes up the sponge plate 3 as it advances. Therefore, the contact friction between the upper and lower sponge plates is reduced, and the sponge plate is easily advanced.
[0026]
In the above, when the arm 19 rotates in the direction of the arrow 20 due to the rotation of the shaft of the motor 17 (FIG. 4A), the link rod 21 moves in the direction of the arrow 28 (FIG. 4A).
