本発明は、スロットマシンの遊技に使用されるメダルなどの円板状体を搬送する円板状体搬送装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a disk-shaped body transporting apparatus that transports a disk-shaped body such as medals used in slot machine games.

従来、この種の搬送装置としては、容器状のバケットを、多数、無端チェーン状に連結し、各バケットの中に複数のメダルを入れて搬送するものがある(たとえば、特許文献1参照。)。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as this type of transport device, there is a device in which a large number of container-like buckets are connected in an endless chain shape and a plurality of medals are transported in each bucket (see, for example, Patent Document 1). .

また、無端チェーンの外側に、該チェーンの周回方向に沿った平面部を有する移送体を連続的に固定し、各移送体の平面部に、該平面部を左右に分ける分離壁とメダルの下端を載せる横桟とを設け、左右を側壁で挟まれた経路の間を、各移送体を上り傾斜で移動させ、横桟に下端を載せた状態でメダルを揚送するようにした搬送装置がある(たとえば、特許文献2参照。)。この搬送装置では、横桟を平面部の左右両端に向けて下り傾斜に形成してあり、側壁が途絶えた箇所でメダルを左右へ排出するようになっている。また、搬送経路の一部を洗浄槽に通すと共に、その下流に温風乾燥機を配置し、メダルの洗浄と乾燥とを搬送中に行なうように構成されている。   In addition, a transfer body having a flat portion along the circumferential direction of the chain is continuously fixed to the outside of the endless chain, and a separation wall that divides the flat portion into left and right portions on the flat portion of each transfer body and the lower end of the medal There is a transport device that is provided with a horizontal rail on which the transfer mechanism is moved, and each transfer body is moved up and down between the paths sandwiched between the left and right side walls, and the medal is lifted with the lower end mounted on the horizontal rail.

実開平1−106411号公報Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-106411 特開平4−61876号公報JP-A-4-61876

特許文献2に開示された搬送装置のように、メダルの下端を横桟に載せた状態で上り傾斜の搬送路を揚送する場合、メダルの落下を防止するためには、搬送路の左右に側壁を設けたり、メダルの前面を覆う前面カバーを搬送路に沿って設けたりするなどの措置を必要とし、搬送装置の構成が複雑になってしまう。   In order to prevent the fall of the medal, when the ascending transport path is lifted with the lower end of the medal placed on the horizontal rail as in the transport apparatus disclosed in Patent Document 2, Measures such as providing a side wall or providing a front cover covering the front of the medal along the conveyance path are required, and the configuration of the conveyance device becomes complicated.

また、メダルを横桟に載せるためには、メダルを予め整列させておく必要があると共に、メダルが変形している場合やΦ25やΦ30といった異径のメダルが混在した場合には、横桟に載せることが難しい。   In addition, in order to place medals on horizontal rails, it is necessary to arrange the medals in advance, and when medals are deformed or medals with different diameters such as Φ25 and Φ30 are mixed, It is difficult to put.

さらに、前面カバーを設置していない箇所ではメダルを鉛直に搬送できず、搬送路の上り傾斜を緩やかにしなければならないので、搬送装置の設置スペースが大きくなる。また、横桟に載せて搬送したメダルを左右へ排出するように構成されているので、横一列には2つのメダルしか並べて搬送することができず、大きな搬送能力の確保が難しいという問題もある。   Furthermore, the medal cannot be transported vertically at a place where the front cover is not installed, and the upward inclination of the transport path must be made gentle, so that the space for installing the transport device becomes large. Further, since the medals carried on the horizontal rail are discharged to the left and right, only two medals can be transported side by side in a horizontal row, and it is difficult to secure a large transport capacity. .

一方、容器状のバケットにメダルを複数枚入れて搬送する装置の場合、搬送能力は大きいが、搬送経路を洗浄液の中に通すと、バケットの中に洗浄液が溜まって重くなり、搬送装置の駆動部などに大きな負荷がかかってしまう。また、洗浄液を排出できたとしても、バケットの中でメダルが重なることもあり、バケットの中のメダルを搬送中に温風乾燥させることは難しい。   On the other hand, in the case of a device that transports multiple medals in a container-shaped bucket, the transport capability is large, but if the transport path is passed through the cleaning liquid, the cleaning liquid accumulates and becomes heavy in the bucket, and the transport device is driven. A large load is applied to the parts. Even if the cleaning liquid can be discharged, medals may overlap in the bucket, and it is difficult to dry the medals in the bucket with hot air during transportation.

本発明は、上記の問題を解決しようとするものであり、大きな搬送能力の確保が可能で、しかも設置スペースが小さく、異径メダルが混在した場合や変形メダルでも搬送することができ、メダルの洗浄中に搬送装置の駆動部に負荷をかけずに済み、さらにメダルの乾燥を行うのに適した円板状体搬送装置を提供することを目的とするものである。   The present invention is intended to solve the above-described problems, and can ensure a large carrying capacity, and the installation space is small, even when different diameter medals are mixed or even when deformed medals can be carried. It is an object of the present invention to provide a disk-shaped body transport apparatus that does not require a load on the drive unit of the transport apparatus during washing and is suitable for drying medals.

The receiving plate 21 is inclined downward toward the driven roller 13 so that the medal dropped from the lower end of the receiving plate 21 is guided to the location 11 a where the conveying loop 11 is bent along the driven roller 13. It has become. This location is a medal receiving location 11 a, and the medal from the receiving plate 21 is accommodated and held in the bucket body 30.

駆動ローラ12に沿って搬送ループ11が屈曲する部分の内側は、バケット体30からメダルが開放されて落下する開放箇所11bになっており、該開放箇所11bの下方(搬送ループ11の内側で駆動ローラ12の直ぐ下方)には、バケット体30から開放されて離脱したメダル4を受け止めて本装置外へ排出する排出部23が設けてある。   The inside of the portion where the conveyance loop 11 bends along the driving roller 12 is an open portion 11b where the medal is released from the bucket body 30 and drops, and is driven below the open portion 11b (inside the conveyance loop 11). Immediately below the roller 12, a discharge unit 23 is provided for receiving the medal 4 released from the bucket body 30 and leaving it, and discharging it to the outside of the apparatus.

第1テンションローラ14から駆動ローラ12へ向かう搬送経路の途中には、搬送経路を構成するバケット体30をループの内外から挟むようにして乾燥部24が配置されている。乾燥部24はブロワ25から送り込まれるエアを搬送中のメダル4に吹き付けて乾燥させるようになっている。   In the middle of the conveyance path from the first tension roller 14 to the driving roller 12, a drying unit 24 is disposed so as to sandwich the bucket body 30 constituting the conveyance path from inside and outside the loop. The drying unit 24 blows the air sent from the blower 25 onto the medal 4 being transported to dry it.

このほか円板状体搬送装置10は、洗浄液槽17の液面レベルを検知する液面センサ26や円板状体搬送装置10の各部の動作を制御する制御部27を備えている。なお、図中には、洗浄液槽17における液面上限レベルHと、液面下限レベルLとを破線で表示してある。   In addition, the disc-shaped transport device 10 includes a liquid level sensor 26 that detects the liquid level of the cleaning liquid tank 17 and a control unit 27 that controls the operation of each unit of the disc-shaped transport device 10. In the figure, the liquid level upper limit level H and the liquid level lower limit level L in the cleaning liquid tank 17 are indicated by broken lines.

次に、バケット体30の構造および作用について説明する。   Next, the structure and operation of the bucket body 30 will be described.

図3は3個連設されたバケット体30の正面(搬送ループ11を内側から見た状態)を、図4は直線部分におけるバケット体30の断面を、図5は屈曲部分におけるバケット体30の断面をそれぞれ示している。図4、図5においてバケット体30の右側は搬送ループ11の内側INに、バケット体30の左側は搬送ループ11の外側OUTになっている。   3 is a front view of the three bucket bodies 30 arranged in a row (a state in which the transport loop 11 is viewed from the inside), FIG. 4 is a cross-section of the bucket body 30 in a straight portion, and FIG. Each section is shown. 4 and 5, the right side of the bucket body 30 is the inner side IN of the transport loop 11, and the left side of the bucket body 30 is the outer side OUT of the transport loop 11.

各バケット体30は、横一列にメダル4を4個積載可能になっている。バケット体30はメダル4が載置される横長矩形の平板に通風用の貫通孔31が開設された積載板32を備え、隣り合うバケット体30は連結部33に通した連結シャフト33aで屈曲自在に連結される。バケット体30はサイズの異なる複数種類のメダル4を載置可能になっており、大きな貫通孔31aは大径のメダル4a(たとえば、Φ30のメダル、500円硬貨など)と小径のメダル4b(たとえば、Φ25のメダル、100円硬貨など)とに共通する通風孔であり、貫通孔31aの上部に沿って複数開設した小径の貫通孔31bは、大径のメダルのために増設された通風孔である。   Each bucket body 30 can stack four medals 4 in a horizontal row. The bucket body 30 is provided with a loading plate 32 in which a through-hole 31 for ventilation is formed on a horizontally long rectangular flat plate on which the medal 4 is placed, and the adjacent bucket body 30 can be bent by a connecting shaft 33 a that is passed through a connecting portion 33. Connected to The bucket body 30 can mount a plurality of types of medals 4 of different sizes, and the large through hole 31a has a large diameter medal 4a (for example, a Φ30 medal, a 500 yen coin, etc.) and a small diameter medal 4b (for example, , Φ25 medals, 100-yen coins, etc.), and a plurality of small-diameter through-holes 31b opened along the upper part of the through-hole 31a are vent holes provided for large-diameter medals. is there.

積載板32のうち搬送ループ11の内側となる面はメダル4が積載される載置面32aを成しており、該載置面32aの搬送方向後端部には、メダル4の一端部を収容するためのポケット部34が形成されている。ポケット部34は載置面32aとの間にメダル4の1枚分の厚みの隙間を形成しており、各ポケット部34に1枚のメダル4が収容されるようになっている。   The surface of the stacking plate 32 that is inside the transport loop 11 forms a mounting surface 32a on which the medals 4 are stacked, and one end of the medal 4 is attached to the rear end of the mounting surface 32a in the transport direction. A pocket portion 34 for accommodating is formed. A gap with a thickness of one medal 4 is formed between the pocket portion 34 and the mounting surface 32 a, and one medal 4 is accommodated in each pocket portion 34.

また、バケット体30には、搬送ループ11の外側において連結部33を越えて、搬送方向前方側に隣接するバケット体30へと延伸された腕部36を有している。該腕部36の先端には、隣接するバケット体30のポケット部34に収容されたメダル4を、貫通孔31aを通じて搬送ループ11の外側から押圧するための保持突起部36aが設けてある。貫通孔31aは、通風孔としての機能のほかに、腕部36の保持突起部36aを通す挿通孔としての機能を兼ねる。なお、ポケット部34には通風用の貫通孔34aが、腕部36には同じく通風用の貫通孔36bが開設してある。   Further, the bucket body 30 has an arm portion 36 that extends beyond the connecting portion 33 on the outer side of the transport loop 11 to the bucket body 30 adjacent to the front side in the transport direction. At the tip of the arm portion 36, a holding projection portion 36a for pressing the medal 4 accommodated in the pocket portion 34 of the adjacent bucket body 30 from the outside of the transport loop 11 through the through hole 31a is provided. In addition to the function as a ventilation hole, the through hole 31a also functions as an insertion hole through which the holding projection 36a of the arm portion 36 passes. The pocket portion 34 has a ventilation through hole 34a, and the arm portion 36 has a ventilation through hole 36b.

搬送ループ11中の直線部分では、図4に示すように、腕部36の保持突起部36aが隣りのバケット体30のポケット部34に収容されているメダル4を該ポケット部34との間で挟持する。これにより、直線部分では、搬送経路が鉛直となってもバケット体30からメダル4が落下することなく保持される。   As shown in FIG. 4, in the straight portion in the transport loop 11, the medal 4 in which the holding projection 36 a of the arm portion 36 is accommodated in the pocket portion 34 of the adjacent bucket body 30 is placed between the pocket portion 34. Hold it. Thereby, in the straight line portion, the medal 4 is held without falling from the bucket body 30 even when the transport path is vertical.

一方、搬送ループ11中の屈曲部分では、図5に示すように、腕部36の保持突起部36aが隣りのバケット体30の積載板32から搬送ループ11の外側へ離れるので、挟持されていたメダル4の開放と、ポケット部34への新たなメダル4の受け入れが可能な状態が形成される。   On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5, the bent portion in the transport loop 11 is held because the holding projection 36 a of the arm portion 36 is separated from the stacking plate 32 of the adjacent bucket body 30 to the outside of the transport loop 11. A state in which the medal 4 can be opened and a new medal 4 can be received in the pocket portion 34 is formed.

次に、円板状体搬送装置10で搬送されるメダル4の受け入れから開放までの流れと作用について説明する。   Next, the flow and operation from the reception to the release of the medal 4 conveyed by the discoid conveying apparatus 10 will be described.

回収路3から受入板21へ落下したメダル4は従動ローラ13内方の受け入れ箇所11aへ案内される。受け入れ箇所11aは図5に示すように搬送ループ11が屈曲する部分なので、受け入れ箇所11aへ案内されてきたメダル4はバケット体30のポケット部34に収容される。また、第1テンションローラ14から従動ローラ13に向かう搬送経路は僅かに下り傾斜しているので(図1参照)、受入板21から落下したメダル4は、該下り傾斜に沿って受け入れ箇所11aへ移動して、自然にポケット部34へ収容される。   The medal 4 dropped from the collection path 3 to the receiving plate 21 is guided to the receiving location 11a inside the driven roller 13. Since the receiving portion 11a is a portion where the transport loop 11 bends as shown in FIG. 5, the medal 4 guided to the receiving portion 11a is received in the pocket portion 34 of the bucket body 30. Further, since the conveyance path from the first tension roller 14 toward the driven roller 13 is slightly inclined downward (see FIG. 1), the medal 4 dropped from the receiving plate 21 is moved to the receiving portion 11a along the downward inclination. It moves and is naturally accommodated in the pocket part 34.

また、ポケット部34は載置面32aとの間にメダル1枚分の厚みの隙間を有するように形成されているので、受入板21から落下したメダル4が受け入れ箇所11aの近傍で積み重なる状態にあっても、各バケット体30のポケット部34へ1枚ずつメダル4が自然に収容される。すなわち、メダル4を1枚ずつ整列させるための整列機構を別途設ける必要がなく、装置構成が簡略化される。   Further, since the pocket portion 34 is formed so as to have a gap of a thickness of one medal between the placement surface 32a, the medal 4 dropped from the receiving plate 21 is stacked in the vicinity of the receiving portion 11a. Even if it exists, the medal 4 is naturally accommodated one by one in the pocket portion 34 of each bucket body 30. That is, it is not necessary to separately provide an alignment mechanism for aligning the medals 4 one by one, and the apparatus configuration is simplified.

また、搬送ループ11の内側でメダル4を受け入れるので、受入板21などを搬送ループ11の内側に配置することができ、搬送ループ11の内側のスペースが有効利用される。これにより、メダル4の受け入れを搬送ループ11の外側で行なう場合に比べて、円板状体搬送装置10の小型化を図ることができる。   In addition, since the medal 4 is received inside the transport loop 11, the receiving plate 21 and the like can be arranged inside the transport loop 11, and the space inside the transport loop 11 is effectively used. Thereby, compared with the case where the medal 4 is received outside the transport loop 11, the disk-shaped body transport device 10 can be downsized.

また、搬送ループ11の下端部分が洗浄液槽17の中に浸かっているので、メダル4は該洗浄液槽17の中の洗浄液および超音波振動子が発する超音波により洗浄される。バケット体30には洗浄液の溜まる部分がないので(ポケット部34にも貫通孔34aが開設されている)、メダル4を容器に入れて搬送するタイプの搬送装置と異なり、容器に溜まった洗浄液ごと搬送するようなことがなく、リフトモータ16などに必要以上の負荷がかからず、円板状体搬送装置10の劣化が防止される。   Further, since the lower end portion of the transport loop 11 is immersed in the cleaning liquid tank 17, the medal 4 is cleaned by the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid tank 17 and ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic vibrator. Since the bucket body 30 does not have a portion in which the cleaning liquid is accumulated (the through hole 34a is also formed in the pocket portion 34), the cleaning liquid accumulated in the container is different from the type of conveying device that conveys the medal 4 in the container. There is no conveyance, the lift motor 16 or the like is not subjected to an excessive load, and deterioration of the disk-shaped object conveyance device 10 is prevented.

受け入れ箇所11aにおいてメダル4をポケット部34に収容したバケット体30は第1テンションローラ14を経た後、駆動ローラ12に向けてほぼ鉛直に上昇する。この部分の搬送経路はほぼ直線になっているので、図4に示すように搬送中のメダル4が保持突起部36aにより挟持されて落下することはない。すなわち、単に、横桟にメダル4を載せて搬送する場合と異なり、挟持した状態でメダル4を搬送するのでメダル4が落下せず、搬送経路をほぼ鉛直に設置することができる。これにより、搬送経路を緩やかな上り傾斜に構成する場合と比べて、円板状体搬送装置10が、特に下部において小型化され、設置面積を少なくすることができる。また、落下を防止するための囲いやガイドレールなども不要になり、装置構成が簡略化される。   The bucket body 30 in which the medal 4 is accommodated in the pocket portion 34 at the receiving location 11 a passes through the first tension roller 14 and then rises substantially vertically toward the drive roller 12. Since the transport path of this portion is substantially straight, the medal 4 being transported is not pinched by the holding projection 36a and dropped as shown in FIG. That is, unlike the case where the medal 4 is simply carried on the horizontal rail and transported, the medal 4 is transported while being held, so that the medal 4 does not fall and the transport path can be set substantially vertically. Thereby, compared with the case where a conveyance path | route is comprised in the gentle up inclination, the disk-shaped object conveying apparatus 10 is reduced in size especially in the lower part, and can reduce an installation area. Further, an enclosure for preventing the fall and a guide rail are not required, and the apparatus configuration is simplified.

搬送中のメダルは乾燥部24の間を通過する際に乾燥される。このとき、バケット体30の積載板32に多くの貫通孔31、34a、36bを開設してあるので、乾燥部24からのエアがメダル4の表裏面によく当たり、乾燥が促進される。   The medals being conveyed are dried when passing between the drying sections 24. At this time, since many through holes 31, 34 a, 36 b are opened in the stacking plate 32 of the bucket body 30, the air from the drying unit 24 hits the front and back surfaces of the medal 4, and drying is promoted.

なお、鉛直に搬送される間は、図4に示すように積載板32が僅かに下向きに傾斜した状態になる。これにより、仮にポケット部34の縁に引っ掛かるようにして余分なメダル4が積載されていても、鉛直に上昇する経路に入ると直ぐに落下し、やがて受け入れ部11aへ至り、他のバケット体30にきちんと収容されるようになっている。   During the vertical conveyance, the stacking plate 32 is slightly inclined downward as shown in FIG. As a result, even if the extra medals 4 are stacked so as to be hooked on the edge of the pocket portion 34, they immediately fall when entering the vertically rising path, eventually reaching the receiving portion 11 a, and entering the other bucket body 30. It is designed to be properly contained.

搬送ループ11の上部まで搬送されてきたメダル4は、搬送ループ11が駆動ローラ12に沿って屈曲する部分(開放箇所11b)で図5に示すように開放されて自然落下し、排出部23から本装置外へ排出される。開放箇所11bを搬送ループ11の内側に設けているので、搬送ループ11の内側のスペースを有効利用でき、搬送ループ11の外側へメダル4を開放する場合に比べて円板状体搬送装置10を小型化することができる。   The medal 4 that has been transported to the upper part of the transport loop 11 is released as shown in FIG. 5 at the portion where the transport loop 11 bends along the drive roller 12 (opened portion 11 b), and naturally falls, and then from the discharge unit 23. It is discharged out of the device. Since the opening portion 11b is provided inside the transport loop 11, the space inside the transport loop 11 can be used effectively, and the disc-shaped body transport device 10 can be used as compared with the case where the medal 4 is opened to the outside of the transport loop 11. It can be downsized.

なお、1つのバケット体30で4個のメダル4を横一列に重ならないように整列させて搬送するようにしたため、メダル4を乾燥し易くすることができる。また、メダル4を横一列に並べる数を増やすことで、円板状体搬送装置10の搬送能力を増大させることができる。   In addition, since the four medals 4 are aligned and transported so as not to overlap in a horizontal row by one bucket body 30, the medals 4 can be easily dried. Moreover, the conveyance capability of the disk-shaped object conveyance apparatus 10 can be increased by increasing the number which arranges the medal 4 in a horizontal line.
