Description

本発明は、解体した畜産肉の部位(以下単に部位と記載する)を、これら部位の大きさに適応する包袋を自動的に選択して包装する方法及び装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for automatically selecting a packaging bag adapted to the size of a part of livestock meat (hereinafter simply referred to as a part) that has been disassembled and packaging the part.

解体した屠殺肉は、かっては骨付きのまま市場に出荷されていたが、近年では骨抜き及び脂削りをしたあと、さらにカット分割し、保存性を高めるために、部位1 単位ごとプラスティツク製の包袋内に収容したあと、真空包装して出荷する流通がある。かかる形態の1 として下記の特許文献1に、包袋の袋口を真空カップで吸着して上方に引き上げ開口すると共に、前記開口部から同包袋内に前記部位を搬入コンベヤでもって押し入れる構成が示されるが、部位は大きいもので50cm以上、小さいものはその半分程度と容積差があるにもかかわらず、同一面積の包袋を用いることになるので不経済という問題がある。   Dismantled slaughtered meat was once shipped to the market with bone attached, but in recent years, after removing the bone and greasing, it is further cut and divided to increase the shelf life. There is a distribution in which the products are packaged in a bag and then shipped after vacuum packaging. As one of such forms, in Patent Document 1 below, the bag mouth of the packaging bag is adsorbed with a vacuum cup and opened upward, and the portion is pushed into the packaging bag from the opening portion with a carry-in conveyor However, there is a problem that it is uneconomical because a bag of the same area is used even though there is a volume difference of about 50 cm or more for a large part and about half of that for a small part.

一方、下記の特許文献2には、部位を押し込み棒で包袋内に充填したあと、同押し込み棒により前記部位と包袋とを一体に真空包装機に押入れる袋詰め装置及び、前記真空包装機内で一対のへら板で前記包袋の袋口を両側に緊張させて袋口の弛みを取り除く技術を開示する。しかしカットした分割部位といっても牛肉の場合は大きいものでは30キロを越える塊であるため、このような部位を収容する包袋の袋口は、前記へら板による緊張を取り除くと直ちに袋口には再び大きな弛みが生ずるので、前記へら板を袋口から引き抜く前に、別箇のクランプで前記袋口をシール台に固定しなければならず、この点で作業能率低下は免れないという問題がある。   On the other hand, in Patent Document 2 below, a bag filling device for filling a part into a bag with a push-in bar and then pushing the part and the bag into the vacuum packaging machine with the push-in bar, and the vacuum packaging Disclosed is a technique for removing slack in the bag mouth by tensioning the bag mouth of the wrapping bag on both sides with a pair of spatula plates in the machine. However, even if the cut portion is cut, the beef is a large chunk of more than 30 kg, so the bag mouth of the wrapping bag that accommodates such a portion is immediately after the tension due to the spatula plate is removed. Since a large slack occurs again, before pulling out the spatula plate from the bag mouth, the bag mouth has to be fixed to the sealing base with a separate clamp, and in this respect, there is a problem that a reduction in work efficiency is inevitable. There is.

下記の特許文献3には、コンベヤラインを縦列運搬する各部位を、計測センサーで複数種類に分別すると共に、制御器でこの分別電子データを記録し、この記録電子データを基に前記部位を複数のコンベヤラインに分岐して、これら各分岐ラインに配置した真空包装用耐圧チャンバー内で、前記の分岐した各部位を包装しかつ真空包装する構成を開示するが、このプラステイックシートによる巻きつけ包装では、その開口部に皺が発生しやすいという問題があり、またコンベヤラインにおいて各部位の進行方向を選択するのでスピード低下があるという問題がある。   In Patent Document 3 below, each part that conveys the conveyor line in tandem is classified into a plurality of types by a measurement sensor, and the classification electronic data is recorded by a controller. In the pressure-resistant chamber for vacuum packaging arranged in each of these branch lines, the above-mentioned branched parts are packaged and vacuum packaged. There is a problem that wrinkles are likely to occur in the opening, and there is a problem that the speed is reduced because the traveling direction of each part is selected in the conveyor line.

一般的なロータリ真空包装機は、包袋に収容した部位を、1分間当たり40個以上処理する能力を備えるので、この処理能力を無駄なものにしない能率的な部位包装を行うために、本発明は、コンベヤラインに沿って縦列運搬する各部位の大きさを計測センサーで測定して前記各部位を複数グループに分別すると共に、制御器に記録したこの分別電子データを基にして、前記コンベヤラインに交差する状態に配置したサイズの異なる複数の袋載積ユニットを移動させて、前記分別電子記録データによって選択したサイズの袋載積ユニットを、前記コンベヤラインにおける前位の搬入機構と、同後位の搬出コンベヤとの間にセットし、このセットした袋載積ユニットにおける包袋の開口部を、その上域に設置する可動吸盤で引き上げて開口する一方、前記包袋の下部に前記搬出コンベヤを突き出すと共に、前記搬入機構に搭載して規定の位置に停止している部位を、前記搬入機構自体の突き出し運動と、同搬入機構による送り出し運動とでもって前記包袋内に押し入れながら、さらに該部位を前記搬出コンベヤに移乗させ、続いて該搬出コンベヤの回転で前記部位を搬送しながら、それを覆う包袋のサイズデータから割り出される同包袋の開口縁の動きを監視して、該開口縁が前記搬出コンベヤに設けたシール台上を通過するタイミングに合わせて、該シール台と、それに接近するシールバーでもって前記開口縁を挟圧し、前記搬出コンベヤの回転と同調移動する前記両シーラでもって前記開口縁に点シールを施した包袋を真空包装機に向けて搬出するように構成する。   Since a general rotary vacuum packaging machine has the ability to process 40 or more parts contained in a sachet per minute, in order to perform efficient part packaging that does not waste this processing capacity, According to the invention, the size of each part conveyed in tandem along the conveyor line is measured by a measurement sensor, and each part is classified into a plurality of groups, and on the basis of the sorted electronic data recorded in the controller, the conveyor A plurality of bag loading units of different sizes arranged in a state intersecting with the line are moved so that the bag loading unit of the size selected by the sorted electronic recording data is the same as the preceding carry-in mechanism in the conveyor line. Set between the rear carry-out conveyor and open the opening of the bag in the set bag stacking unit with a movable suction cup installed in the upper area. On the other hand, the carry-out conveyor protrudes from the lower part of the wrapping bag, and the part mounted on the carry-in mechanism and stopped at a specified position is divided by a push-out movement of the carry-in mechanism itself and a feed-out movement by the carry-in mechanism. While being pushed into the wrapping bag, the portion is further transferred to the carry-out conveyor, and then the portion is transferred by the rotation of the carry-out conveyor, and the wrapping bag is calculated from the size data of the wrapping bag covering the portion. The movement of the opening edge is monitored, and the opening edge is clamped by the sealing stand and a seal bar approaching the sealing edge in accordance with the timing when the opening edge passes over the sealing stand provided on the carry-out conveyor, With the two sealers that move synchronously with the rotation of the carry-out conveyor, the packaging bag with the pointed seal at the opening edge is carried out toward the vacuum packaging machine.

前記構成によると、縦列運搬する各部位の大きさを計測センサーで測定して複数グループに分別すると共に、この分別電子記録データ信号に対応するサイズの袋載積ユニットの自動選択により、部位の大きさに見合った包袋を選択でき経済性が向上する。
また包袋のサイズデータから割り出される同包袋の開口縁の動きを監視して、該開口縁が搬出コンベヤに設けたシール台上を通過するタイミングを算出し、このタイミングに合わせて、シール台とそれに接近するシールバーでもって開口縁を挟圧し、前記搬出コンベヤの回転と同調移動する前記両シーラでもって前記開口縁に点シールを施す構成を備える。つまり包袋を停止しての点シールの実施ではなく、部位を搬送しながら包袋に点シールを行え、その分能率的で、さらにこの点シールの実施により真空包装機での袋口の皺とり工程を省くことが出来るという点でも能率的である。
According to the above configuration, the size of each part transported in tandem is measured by a measurement sensor and sorted into a plurality of groups, and the size of the part is automatically selected by a bag loading unit having a size corresponding to this sorted electronic recording data signal. The economy can be improved by selecting a suitable bag.
In addition, the movement of the opening edge of the packaging bag calculated from the size data of the packaging bag is monitored, and the timing at which the opening edge passes over the sealing table provided on the carry-out conveyor is calculated. The opening edge is clamped with a stand and a seal bar approaching the base, and the opening edge is point-sealed with the two sealers that move in synchronization with the rotation of the carry-out conveyor. In other words, point sealing is not performed when the bag is stopped, but the bag can be point-sealed while the part is being transported. It is also efficient in that the process can be omitted.

図1に平面で示す部位10の搬送用コンベヤラインに交差して、それぞれサイズの異なる包袋を収容した横4個の袋載積ユニット30を配置し、該袋載積ユニット30を隔てて前域の、ベルトコンベヤからなる搬入機構20と、同後域の搬出コンベヤ40とを直列に設置する。なお部位の搬送方向に向けて最前位のコンベヤ80は、搬送する部位10の大きさを計測する測定センサー82を備え、その測定記録を制御器83に入力し、同制御器83から発する信号で各種モータをコントロールすることになるが、その詳しくは後述する。   Crossing the conveyor line of the site | part 10 shown by a plane in FIG. 1, the horizontal four bag loading unit 30 which accommodated the bag which each differs in size is arrange | positioned, and this bag loading unit 30 is separated and front The carry-in mechanism 20 composed of a belt conveyor in the area and the carry-out conveyor 40 in the rear area are installed in series. Note that the foremost conveyor 80 in the conveyance direction of the part includes a measurement sensor 82 that measures the size of the part 10 to be conveyed, and the measurement record is input to the controller 83 and is a signal emitted from the controller 83. Various motors will be controlled, details of which will be described later.

先に述べた横4個それぞれの袋載積積載ユニット30は、図3に示すようにモータ11の動力がベルトコンベヤ12及び巻き取り軸13並びにリール軸14をインチング回転して、台車15上に載置したダンボール紙箱16内に、じぐざぐに折り重ねて配置した連続的な包袋17を、断続的に引き出す構成である。   As shown in FIG. 3, each of the four horizontal bag stacking units 30 described above has the power of the motor 11 inchingly rotates the belt conveyor 12, the take-up shaft 13, and the reel shaft 14, and is placed on the carriage 15. It is the structure which pulls out continuously the continuous packaging bag 17 arrange | positioned in the corrugated cardboard paper box 16 folded up in a zigzag manner.

なお前記の包袋は図4のごとく、2本の感圧性粘着テープ18に、多数の各包袋17の開口縁を、約50mmづつずらせて鎧重ねに貼り付けて形成するもので、図5に平面を示す袋載積ユニット30は、前記2本の感圧性粘着テープ18を50mmづつ断続的に引っ張って、最先端の包袋17の端を、ベルトコンベヤ12の端と、アイドラー19との間の真空吸着式の固定要素21に引き出し、最先端の包袋がテープ18から剥ぎ取られると、その後続の各包袋を順次50mmづつ引き出す構成である。   As shown in FIG. 4, the wrapping bag is formed by attaching the opening edges of a large number of wrapping bags 17 to the armor stack by shifting about 50 mm each on two pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes 18. The bag loading unit 30 showing a flat surface is pulled intermittently by 50 mm each of the two pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes 18 so that the end of the most advanced bag 17 is connected to the end of the belt conveyor 12 and the idler 19. When the leading edge packaging bag is peeled off from the tape 18 by pulling out to the vacuum adsorbing type fixing element 21 in between, each subsequent packaging bag is sequentially pulled out by 50 mm.

図6は、図1における搬入機構20であるベルトコンベヤの拡大側面図で、コンベヤガイド23に対してスライド自在に支持するフレーム24に、複数のプーリ25を介して平ベルト26を支持し、モータ27を動力源とするメインプーリ28によって前記ベルト26の回転を行う構成である。また前記フレーム24を、コンベヤガイド23に沿って往復動させるチェン29の動力源として、パルスモータ31を設置する。   FIG. 6 is an enlarged side view of the belt conveyor which is the carry-in mechanism 20 in FIG. 1. A flat belt 26 is supported on a frame 24 which is slidably supported with respect to the conveyor guide 23 via a plurality of pulleys 25, and a motor. The belt 26 is rotated by a main pulley 28 having a power source 27 as a power source. A pulse motor 31 is installed as a power source for a chain 29 that reciprocates the frame 24 along the conveyor guide 23.

同じ図6において前位のベルトコンベヤ41から、搬入機構20の上面に送り込まれる部位10は、一対のセンサー42の赤外線に触れることによりベルト26の段階的な減速でもって規定位置に停止して、後方への搬出のタイミングを計ることになるが、同搬入機構20との対向位置で包袋(図示省略)が開口することで、同包袋に向けて同搬入機構20はコンベヤガイド23に沿って突き出るのである。   In the same FIG. 6, the part 10 fed from the front belt conveyor 41 to the upper surface of the carry-in mechanism 20 is stopped at a predetermined position by the stepwise deceleration of the belt 26 by touching the infrared rays of the pair of sensors 42. Although the timing of carrying out back is measured, the carrying-in mechanism 20 follows the conveyor guide 23 toward the packaging bag by opening a packaging bag (not shown) at a position facing the carrying-in mechanism 20. It sticks out.

また同図において、前記搬入機構20上段のガイドレール32は、フレーム33を介して両側一対の袋口緊張材34を支持する。この平面図である図7のごとく、横長な前記のフレーム33に固定した一対のピン35それぞれに、前記一対の撓り特性のある袋口緊張材34を支持すると共に、これら両袋口緊張材34を、一対の噛み合う扇形歯車36の回転で開閉可能に連結し、前記フレームに固定した空気圧シリンダー37と前記両歯車36とをV字型のリンク38を介して連結する。   In the same figure, the upper guide rail 32 of the carry-in mechanism 20 supports a pair of bag mouth tension members 34 via a frame 33. As shown in FIG. 7, which is a plan view, the pair of pins 35 fixed to the horizontally long frame 33 are supported by the pair of bag mouth tension members 34 having bending characteristics, and both the bag mouth tension members are supported. 34 is connected so as to be openable and closable by rotation of a pair of meshing fan-shaped gears 36, and a pneumatic cylinder 37 fixed to the frame and the both gears 36 are connected via a V-shaped link 38.

図3の袋載積ユニット30において、包袋17の袋口を下方から吸着して固定する要素21の、上域の可動吸盤43は、下域の包袋に吸着して同包袋の開口縁を上方向に開口するが、その具体図は下記に説明する。   In the bag loading unit 30 of FIG. 3, the upper movable sucker 43 of the element 21 that adsorbs and fixes the bag mouth of the packaging bag 17 from below is adsorbed to the lower packaging bag and opens the packaging bag. The edge opens upward, and a specific diagram thereof will be described below.

すなわち、図8の正面図に示すように、袋載積ユニット30の配置位置において、その上域の吊柱44に固定する板フレーム45に、複数の滑車46、47を介して昇降材48を立て方向に支持し、該昇降材の下端に固定した横長バー49下面の、複数の真空カップてもって前記の可動吸盤43を形成する。一方前記板フレーム45に固定した袋口開口用パルスモータ50が備えるピニオン51を、前記昇降材側面のラック52に係合し、制御器53との間に設けた回路54を通して送る部位の分別記録データより、可動吸盤43の上昇量をコントロールして包袋17の開口幅を、充填する部位の大きさに合わせて設定するのである。   That is, as shown in the front view of FIG. 8, the lifting / lowering material 48 is attached to the plate frame 45 fixed to the suspension column 44 in the upper region thereof via a plurality of pulleys 46, 47 at the arrangement position of the bag loading unit 30. The movable suction cup 43 is formed by a plurality of vacuum cups on the lower surface of the horizontally long bar 49 supported in the standing direction and fixed to the lower end of the elevating member. On the other hand, the pinion 51 provided in the pulse motor 50 for opening the bag mouth fixed to the plate frame 45 is engaged with the rack 52 on the side surface of the elevating material and sent through the circuit 54 provided between the controller 53 and the separation recording of the part From the data, the amount of movement of the movable suction cup 43 is controlled to set the opening width of the bag 17 according to the size of the portion to be filled.

図9は、図1における搬出コンベヤ40の拡大側面を示すが、枠型コンベヤフレーム55に、搬出ベルト回転用のパルスモータ56を設置し、前記モータが支持する原動プーリ57及び、その他両端のプーリ58、59によってコンベヤベルトを支持する一方、前記コンベヤフレーム55を、両側のアングル型の水平ガイド61にスライド自在に支持し、この水平ガイド61に対するコンベヤフレーム55の移動は、図1のモータ100が行う。   FIG. 9 shows an enlarged side surface of the carry-out conveyor 40 in FIG. 1. A pulse motor 56 for rotating the carry-out belt is installed in the frame-type conveyor frame 55, and a driving pulley 57 supported by the motor and other pulleys at both ends. While the conveyor belt 55 is supported by 58 and 59, the conveyor frame 55 is slidably supported by angle-type horizontal guides 61 on both sides, and the movement of the conveyor frame 55 relative to the horizontal guide 61 is performed by the motor 100 of FIG. Do.

またその平面である図10は、吊柱63が前記両側の水平ガイド61を固定し、この水平ガイド61の上面に沿って前記枠型のコンベヤフレーム55はスライド自在である。なお前記搬出コンベヤ40のベルトは複数の紐ベルトから成り立ち、前記コンベヤフレーム55を、モータの動力でもって水平ガイド61における一定の領域において往復動する構成である。この場合枠型のコンベヤフレーム55に形成したシール台64も一体に往復動する。   In FIG. 10, which is a plane, the suspension pillar 63 fixes the horizontal guides 61 on both sides, and the frame type conveyor frame 55 is slidable along the upper surface of the horizontal guide 61. The belt of the carry-out conveyor 40 includes a plurality of string belts, and the conveyor frame 55 is reciprocated in a certain region of the horizontal guide 61 by the power of the motor. In this case, the seal base 64 formed on the frame type conveyor frame 55 also reciprocates together.

図11のように、前記シール台64の上域に配置するシールバー65の両端を、前記コンベヤフレーム55の両側それぞれに立設する流体シリンダー66のピストンロッド67と連結し、シールバー65の下面の断続突起79により仮シーラを形成する。また前記シールバー65は内部に加熱用のパイプヒータ78を配置する。前記流体シリンダー66によるモータ動力でシールバー65を、下域のシール台64に向けて下動させ、突起79とによる挟圧でもって包袋に不連続な点シールを行うことができる。   As shown in FIG. 11, both ends of the seal bar 65 disposed in the upper region of the seal base 64 are connected to the piston rods 67 of the fluid cylinders 66 erected on both sides of the conveyor frame 55. A temporary sealer is formed by the intermittent projection 79. The seal bar 65 has a pipe heater 78 for heating inside. The seal bar 65 can be moved downward toward the lower seal base 64 by the motor power of the fluid cylinder 66, and discontinuous point sealing can be performed on the wrapping bag with the clamping pressure by the projection 79.

図1における最前位のコンベヤ80の拡大は、図15に図示する。すなわち同コンベヤ80において部位10を縦列状に側壁81に沿って運搬する場合、前記部位の通過域に設置した光電式の計測センサー82は、その側面と天面とから照射する多数個の赤外線でもって、通過する各部位10の断面積と、同部位10の通過時間から同部位の長さを測定し、その検出信号を制御器83に電子記録情報として入力するが、この計測センサー82の代用としてカメラを使用する場合もある。   An enlargement of the foremost conveyor 80 in FIG. 1 is illustrated in FIG. That is, when the part 10 is transported in a tandem shape along the side wall 81 in the conveyor 80, the photoelectric measurement sensor 82 installed in the passage area of the part is irradiated with a large number of infrared rays irradiated from the side surface and the top surface. Therefore, the length of the part 10 is measured from the cross-sectional area of each part 10 passing through and the passage time of the part 10, and the detection signal is input to the controller 83 as electronic record information. Sometimes a camera is used.

この場合、図16に示すように、骨抜きをした部位10断面は、幅(A)の測定値を<1>として、その高さ(B)は凡そその<0.5〜0.8>という関係が一般的である。そこで前記制御器83における演算機は、前記の測定データから前記各部位を図28に示すように、横幅数値、例えば40〜25cmを大(A)とし、例えば25cm以下を小(B)と分別して記録する。そして部位の長さを、例えば70〜50cmを大とし、50〜30cmを小とすると、横幅(A)40cmのものの、長さが70〜50cmのものはA1と分類し、横幅(A)40cmのものの、長さが50〜30cmのものはA2と分類するように、これに習って高さBのものもB1、 B2と分類する。なお前記4種類の各部位の間に、例えば長さ2cm程度の不計測境界200を形成する。つまりこの不計測境界200の設置により、該不計測境界に沿う値を備える部位を機械的にコンベヤラインから排除し、各部位を、A1、 A2、B1、B2として確実に分類することが可能になる。ただ前記の排除により、図1におけるコンベヤラインを搬送する部位10の搬送順序が、制御器83が記録する電子情報と異なることになるので、例えばコンベヤ41に補助的な計測センサーを設置して、通過する各部位10の分別情報を改めて制御器83に記録する。従って特許請求の範囲に記載する「計測センサー」とは、この補助的な計測センサーをも含んでいる。   In this case, as shown in FIG. 16, the cross-section of the site 10 where the bone has been removed generally has a relation that the measured value of the width (A) is <1> and the height (B) is about <0.5 to 0.8>. It is. Therefore, the arithmetic unit in the controller 83 divides each part from the measurement data as shown in FIG. 28, for example, the horizontal width value, for example, 40 to 25 cm is large (A), and for example, 25 cm or less is small (B). Record separately. For example, if the length of the part is increased to 70 to 50 cm and the length of 50 to 30 cm is reduced, the width (A) of 40 cm, the length of 70 to 50 cm is classified as A1, and the width (A) of 40 cm. According to this, those having a height of 50 to 30 cm are classified as A2, and those having a height of B are also classified as B1 and B2. An unmeasured boundary 200 having a length of, for example, about 2 cm is formed between the four types of parts. In other words, by installing this non-measurement boundary 200, it is possible to mechanically exclude parts having values along the non-measurement boundary from the conveyor line, and to reliably classify each part as A1, A2, B1, B2. Become. However, due to the above-described exclusion, the transport order of the parts 10 that transport the conveyor line in FIG. 1 is different from the electronic information recorded by the controller 83. For example, an auxiliary measurement sensor is installed on the conveyor 41, The classification information of each passing part 10 is recorded in the controller 83 anew. Therefore, the “measurement sensor” described in the claims includes this auxiliary measurement sensor.

一方、前記制御器が記録した前記電子、データを記録順に、図3における下域のモータ85に指令信号として送信することで、該モータの軸に固定するピニオン86は、ラック歯87を介して台車15をレール89に沿って移動させ、並列する各袋載積ユニット30から、搬送されてくる部位に該当するサイズの選択した袋載積ユニット30を部位の搬送域にセットする。要するに図1におけるサイズの異なる包袋を備える4個の袋載積ユニット30を、制御器83の電子記録データでもって移動し、搬入コンベヤ20上に到達した部位10の大きさの単位に対応する包袋を、前記搬入コンベヤ20と、搬出コンベヤ40との間に運び出すのである。かかる作用により、運ばれてくる各部位10の大きさに見合った包袋を順次開口し、これらの包袋内への見合った部位の搬入が可能になるのである。   On the other hand, the electronic and data recorded by the controller is transmitted as a command signal to the lower motor 85 in FIG. 3 in the recording order so that the pinion 86 fixed to the shaft of the motor is connected via the rack teeth 87. The carriage 15 is moved along the rail 89, and the selected bag loading unit 30 having a size corresponding to the portion to be conveyed is set in the conveyance area of the portion from the parallel bag loading units 30. In short, the four bag stacking units 30 having different size bags in FIG. 1 are moved with the electronic recording data of the controller 83 and correspond to the unit of the size of the part 10 that has reached the carry-in conveyor 20. The bag is carried out between the carry-in conveyor 20 and the carry-out conveyor 40. By such an action, the sachets corresponding to the sizes of the parts 10 to be transported are sequentially opened, and the corresponding parts can be carried into the sachets.

図8において包袋17を開口する可動吸盤43の運動量は、横幅の小さい包袋に比較して、より横幅の大きい包袋17の場合、より高くまで上動させて開口する。要するに図16で、既に部位10の平均的な横幅Aと、高さBとの関係は説明したが、可動吸盤は、包装する部位の高さBとの関係を満足させるレベルまで運動して、包袋を開口するのである。   In FIG. 8, the momentum of the movable suction cup 43 that opens the wrapping bag 17 is moved upward and opened in the case of the wrapping bag 17 having a larger lateral width compared to the wrapping bag having a smaller lateral width. In short, in FIG. 16, the relationship between the average lateral width A and the height B of the portion 10 has already been explained, but the movable suction cup moves to a level that satisfies the relationship with the height B of the portion to be wrapped, Open the bag.

そこで、図12における袋載積ユニット30において、テープ18でもって最先端の包袋17が引き出され、その袋口の下面が真空吸引力で固定要素21に吸い着くと、その上域から下降する可動吸盤43が前記包袋17の上面を吸着して引き上げて開口し、ほぼ同時に前記包袋17の内部への袋口緊張材34の挿入が開始され、一方、前記吸盤43を支えるフレームに固定したフアン68からの空気噴出圧が、前記包袋17を膨らませて立体化する。   Therefore, in the bag loading unit 30 in FIG. 12, when the state-of-the-art packaging bag 17 is pulled out with the tape 18, and the lower surface of the bag mouth adsorbs to the fixing element 21 by the vacuum suction force, it descends from the upper region. The movable suction cup 43 adsorbs and pulls up the upper surface of the wrapping bag 17 and opens, and at the same time, the insertion of the bag-tensioning material 34 into the wrapping bag 17 is started, while it is fixed to the frame that supports the suction cup 43. The blown air pressure from the fan 68 inflates the sachet 17 to form a three-dimensional shape.

続いて、図13のごとく部位10を搭載する搬入機構20の突き出し運動量と、ベルト26の回転による送り出し運動量とでもって、前記部位10を包袋17の底面に押し当てて固定部材21及び固定吸盤43から前記包袋17を奪い、さらに包袋17を前進させ部位10を搬出コンベヤ40に移乗させる。この場合、制御器は記録している包袋17のサイズと部位10の分別値とを基にして、前記の搬入機構20の突き出し運動量と、ベルト26の回転による送り出し運動量とを決定して、前記のごとく部位10を搬出コンベヤ40に移乗させたあと、搬入機構20は元の定位置に復帰する。一方部位の移乗を受けた搬出コンベヤ40はその回転で包袋17の搬送を受け継ぐ。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 13, the fixing member 21 and the fixed suction cup are pressed against the bottom surface of the wrapping bag 17 by pushing the portion 10 against the bottom surface of the wrapping bag 17 with the protruding momentum of the loading mechanism 20 mounting the portion 10. The wrapping bag 17 is taken from 43 and the wrapping bag 17 is further moved forward to transfer the portion 10 to the carry-out conveyor 40. In this case, the controller determines the ejection momentum of the carry-in mechanism 20 and the delivery momentum due to the rotation of the belt 26 based on the recorded size of the packaging bag 17 and the fractional value of the portion 10. As described above, after the part 10 is transferred to the carry-out conveyor 40, the carry-in mechanism 20 returns to the original fixed position. On the other hand, the carry-out conveyor 40 that has received the transfer of the part inherits the conveyance of the bag 17 by its rotation.

そして図9では、包袋の17のサイズデータから算出される同包袋開口縁の動きを監視して、その開口縁がシール台64の上域に達すると同時に、枠型のコンベヤフレーム55を矢印60の方向に発進させ、同時にシール台64に向けてシールバー65を下降させ、これら仮シーラ70により前記開口縁を挟圧し、図14に示すように包袋17の袋口に点シール76を施すのである。   In FIG. 9, the movement of the opening edge of the packaging bag calculated from the size data of the packaging bag 17 is monitored. Starting in the direction of the arrow 60, the seal bar 65 is lowered toward the seal base 64 at the same time, the opening edge is clamped by these temporary sealers 70, and as shown in FIG. Is given.

そこでこの運動コントロールを図2に説明する。搬入機構20を構成するベルトコンベヤ26の先端は通常、停留点71に停止するが、該コンベヤが部位10を載せて包袋17内に突き進む場合、部位10の分別記録データから使用する包袋17の長さ数値を予知しているので、この包袋17のサイズデータを基にベルと26を前進点72まで突入させ、続いて前記ベルト26の回転で部位10を搬入点73まで押し進める。この結果、基点74に存在した包袋17の袋口は吸盤65から離脱して搬出コンベヤ40に移乗する。続く搬出コンベヤ40の回転で、図9において袋口がシール点75の上を通過する直前、枠フレーム55の後退を開始し、シール台64に上からシールバーを下降して袋口に点シールを実施するのである。   This movement control will be described with reference to FIG. The front end of the belt conveyor 26 constituting the carry-in mechanism 20 normally stops at a stopping point 71. However, when the conveyor carries the part 10 and advances into the packaging bag 17, the packaging bag 17 used from the classification record data of the part 10 Therefore, the bell and 26 are plunged to the advance point 72 based on the size data of the wrapping bag 17, and then the portion 10 is pushed to the carry-in point 73 by the rotation of the belt 26. As a result, the bag mouth of the bag 17 existing at the base point 74 is detached from the suction cup 65 and transferred to the carry-out conveyor 40. With the subsequent rotation of the carry-out conveyor 40, immediately before the bag mouth passes over the seal point 75 in FIG. 9, the frame frame 55 starts to retract, and the seal bar descends from the top to the seal base 64 to point-seal the bag mouth. Is carried out.

そのあと搬出コンベヤ40の回転を継続して前記包装体を、後域のロータリ真空包装機に向けて送り出し、図20のごとく耐圧チャンバー内において、包袋17に施した点シール76の内側で密封シール80を完成させるのである。この場合袋口は予め施した点シール76でもってフイルム剛性を増加させているので、真空包装機において袋口を密封シールするに当たり、同袋口をクランプで固定する必要がなくなるのである。なお、そのあとシール台64と、ブロックモーションするシールバー65とは、後続の部位を収容する包袋を受け入れるために元の定位置に復帰する。 After that, the carry-out conveyor 40 continues to rotate, and the package is sent to the rotary vacuum packaging machine in the rear region, and sealed inside the point seal 76 applied to the bag 17 in the pressure-resistant chamber as shown in FIG. The seal 80 is completed. In this case, since the film mouth is increased in film rigidity by the point seal 76 applied in advance, it is not necessary to fix the bag mouth with a clamp when the bag mouth is hermetically sealed in the vacuum packaging machine. After that, the seal base 64 and the seal bar 65 that performs the block motion are returned to the original fixed positions in order to receive the packaging bag that accommodates the subsequent portion.

コンベヤラインにおいて最も時間のかかる作業は、図12において吸盤43が包袋17の袋口を引き上げて開口し、続く袋口内へ袋口緊張材34の挿入と同時に、図13のごとく搬入機構20により部位10を包袋17に押し入れて同包袋を固定要素21から剥離したあと、搬出コンベヤ40の回転で前記包袋17の搬送を受け継ぐまでの運動であり、各包袋17に対する部位の充填間隔として、2.5秒から約3秒前後での袋詰めが可能である。   The most time-consuming work in the conveyor line is that the suction cup 43 in FIG. 12 pulls up the bag mouth of the bag 17 and opens it, and simultaneously with the insertion of the bag mouth tendon 34 into the bag mouth, the carrying mechanism 20 as shown in FIG. This is a movement from pushing the part 10 into the wrapping bag 17 and peeling the wrapping bag from the fixing element 21 until the transfer of the wrapping bag 17 is inherited by the rotation of the carry-out conveyor 40. As a result, it is possible to pack the bag in about 2.5 seconds to about 3 seconds.

なお前記の場合もっとも懸念されるのは、図8における可動吸盤43の、包袋17への吸い付きミスがある。平均的にかかる現象は包袋の枚数当たり1%前後の頻度で発生するデータを得ている。そこで横長バー49と真空ポンプとを繋ぐライン84に真空ゲーシ88を設置し、包袋への吸着ミスで可動吸盤21から空気流入が起こり、真空ゲージ88によるライン84の測定値が設定値に達しないときは、制御器53は、横長バー49を再度下降する信号を発し、真空吸盤43による再度の包袋17への吸い付きを試みるようにコントロールを図るのである。   In this case, the most concerned is the mistake of sucking the movable suction cup 43 in FIG. On average, such a phenomenon is obtained that occurs at a frequency of about 1% per number of wrapped bags. Therefore, a vacuum gage 88 is installed in the line 84 connecting the horizontally long bar 49 and the vacuum pump, and air inflow occurs from the movable suction cup 21 due to a mistake in adsorption to the bag, and the measured value of the line 84 by the vacuum gauge 88 reaches the set value. When not, the controller 53 issues a signal to lower the horizontally long bar 49 again, and controls the vacuum sucker 43 to try to suck the bag 17 again.

つまり図22におけるステップP1の「OK」記号は、選択した包袋17を設定位置に運び終えたことを知らせる電子信号に相当し、この信号に対応してステップP2のごとく可動吸盤43に対して包袋への下降指令が出る。この直後ステップP3の、前記可動吸盤43への真空作用が図られたあと、ステップP4による同可動吸盤43の上昇指令と、ステップP5における同吸盤43の真空測定が指令される。ステップP6における判別において真空測定値が正常な場合は、ステップP7のように開口する包袋内に搬入コンベヤ20によって部位の搬入指令が出されるが、仮に前記の真空測定値が不正常な場合は、ステップP8の、搬入コンベヤ20の待機指令が出される一方、ステップP9による可動吸盤43の再下降による包袋への吸い付きを促して、ステップP4による同可動吸盤43の再上昇で、包袋の開口が図られるのである。   That is, the “OK” symbol in step P1 in FIG. 22 corresponds to an electronic signal notifying that the selected packaging bag 17 has been moved to the set position, and corresponding to this signal, the movable sucker 43 is instructed as in step P2. A descent command to the bag is issued. Immediately after this, after the vacuum action to the movable suction cup 43 is achieved in step P3, a command to raise the movable suction cup 43 in step P4 and a vacuum measurement of the suction cup 43 in step P5 are instructed. If the vacuum measurement value is normal in the discrimination in step P6, a part carry-in command is issued by the carry-in conveyor 20 in the open bag as in step P7, but if the vacuum measurement value is abnormal, In step P8, the standby command for the carry-in conveyor 20 is issued, while the movable suction cup 43 is urged to be sucked by the lowering of the movable suction cup 43 in step P9, and the movable suction cup 43 is raised again in step P4. The opening of this is intended.

また前記ミスと同程度のパセンテージで、包袋に押し入れる部位が前記包袋の袋口に引っかり、これにより同包袋への部位の搬入ミスが起こる可能性があるが、かかるミスの対処は下記の如く行う。   In addition, there is a possibility that the part to be pushed into the wrapping bag will be caught in the bag mouth of the wrapping bag with the same percentage as the mistake, and this may cause a mistake in carrying the part into the wrapping bag. Is done as follows.

すなわち図8において、可動吸盤43が包袋17に吸い付き真空ゲージ88の測定値が上がると、その信号130が制御器53に入力され、同時に前記制御器53は、リレー131に信号を送って開閉器132を閉鎖するので、タイマー133の積算が開始される。図23における符号130は、包袋を開口するために同包袋に吸い付いた可動吸盤の真空値が設定値に達し真空ゲージから制御器にその信号が送信されたことを表すもので、ステプP10は、前記信号130によりタイマーの積算開始を促すことを示したものである。この開始信号でもってステップP11に示すように積算が開始され、同時に積算時間が測られる。その間、ステップP12の、真空ゲージでの測定値を監視する。   That is, in FIG. 8, when the movable suction cup 43 sucks into the bag 17 and the measured value of the vacuum gauge 88 increases, the signal 130 is input to the controller 53, and at the same time, the controller 53 sends a signal to the relay 131. Since the switch 132 is closed, the integration of the timer 133 is started. Reference numeral 130 in FIG. 23 indicates that the vacuum value of the movable suction cup sucked on the packaging bag to open the packaging bag has reached the set value and the signal is transmitted from the vacuum gauge to the controller. P10 indicates that the signal 130 prompts the timer to start integration. With this start signal, integration is started as shown in step P11, and the integration time is measured at the same time. Meanwhile, the measured value with the vacuum gauge in step P12 is monitored.

図24にあって記号Cは包装作業のサイクルを示し、1サイクルCは、吸盤が包袋に吸い付く真空時間Vと、前記吸盤から包袋が離れている時間Zとからなり、図23においてステップP11に示す時間算出の間、ステツプP12の真空ゲージでの測定値が高水準で保たれると、ステップP13のように作業は規定のプログラムのように進行するが、仮に搬入する部位が包袋を引っ掛け、吸い付く吸盤から強制的に前記包袋をむしり取ると、タイマーの設定時間Vが完了するまでに、真空ゲージ88は空気圧を感知することになるので、ステップP14に記載するように制御器は、包装不完全な該当部位を、リサイクルラインに乗せるための信号を発信する結果、図1において同部位を搬出コンベヤ40の後方から離脱させ、逆送ライン135でもって計測センサー82の前域で、コンベヤラインにリサイクルすることになるのである。   In FIG. 24, symbol C indicates a cycle of the packaging operation, and one cycle C includes a vacuum time V in which the sucker sucks the wrapping bag and a time Z in which the wrapping bag is separated from the sucker. During the time calculation shown in step P11, if the measured value at the vacuum gauge at step P12 is kept at a high level, the operation proceeds as in the prescribed program as in step P13, but the part to be carried in is temporarily covered. When the bag is forcibly peeled off from the sucker sucking and sucking the bag, the vacuum gauge 88 will sense the air pressure until the set time V of the timer is completed, so control as described in step P14 As a result of sending a signal for placing the corresponding part incompletely packaged on the recycle line, the part is removed from the rear of the carry-out conveyor 40 in FIG. 2 in the front region, it become possible to recycle the conveyor line.

図1におけ4個の袋載積ユニット30に収容するれぞれ長さのことなる各包袋は、それぞれの袋口を1列に揃えて配列している関係で、搬入機構20を前後進させるモータ31及び、同機構20のベルトコンベヤ26を回転させるモータ28それぞれの回転角を制御して、前記搬入機構20の包袋への挿入量及び、前記包袋の押し出し量それぞれをコントロールする必要がある。つまりこの調整を正確行わないと、図9においてシールバー65を、移動する包袋17の口縁に正確に下降させることができない。   In FIG. 1, each wrapping bag having a different length accommodated in the four bag stacking units 30 is arranged so that the respective bag mouths are arranged in a line, and therefore the carrying mechanism 20 is moved back and forth. The rotation angle of each of the motor 31 for advancing and the motor 28 for rotating the belt conveyor 26 of the mechanism 20 is controlled to control the amount of insertion of the carry-in mechanism 20 into the bag and the amount of push-out of the bag. There is a need. That is, if this adjustment is not performed accurately, the seal bar 65 in FIG. 9 cannot be accurately lowered to the mouth edge of the moving bag 17.

部位の包装において、図2における包袋17の長さは大きいもので80cmを超え、小さいものではその半分ということもあるので、包袋の長さによっては、当然搬入コンベヤ20の前進点72の位置に変化が生じ、同時に搬出コンベヤ40の押し出し量も変わるので、包袋の長さに応じて前記両コンベヤ20、40の相対接近量は、図1におけるモータ31、56の回転角でもって調整する。   In the packaging of the site, the length of the wrapping bag 17 in FIG. 2 is large and exceeds 80 cm, and may be half that of the small wrapping bag. Since the position changes and the push-out amount of the carry-out conveyor 40 changes at the same time, the relative approaching amount of the two conveyors 20 and 40 is adjusted by the rotation angles of the motors 31 and 56 in FIG. To do.

図10における搬出コンベヤ40は、並列する紐ベルトを使用して形成し、これら各紐ベルトの間に配列した飛び石状突起をもつシール台64に対し、上からシーラを下降させて包袋の開口縁を点シールすると説明したが、この紐ベルト40を平ベルトにより形成すると共に、この仮想する平ベルト40に直接、図11に示すシーラ65下面の歯型突起79を押し付けて包袋袋口を挟圧し、前記平ベルト40とシール台64とを一体に後退する過程で、前記袋口に点シールすることがてきる。   The carry-out conveyor 40 in FIG. 10 is formed by using parallel string belts, and the sealer is lowered from above on the sealing base 64 having stepping stone-like projections arranged between these string belts, thereby opening the packaging bag. Although it has been described that the edge is point-sealed, the strap belt 40 is formed by a flat belt, and the tooth-shaped protrusion 79 on the lower surface of the sealer 65 shown in FIG. In the process of clamping and retracting the flat belt 40 and the seal base 64 together, the bag mouth can be spot-sealed.

図3の袋載積ユニット30は、テープ18に貼り付けた包袋17を、同テープ18の巻取りにより引き出す構成であったが、図17の袋載積ユニット91は、盤92に載置した包袋17の高さレベルをセンサー93で監視し、包袋17の上面が常に一定レベルを保つように、ピニオン94と噛み合うラック歯95を介して前記盤92を刻み上昇させる構成である。ただ部位を包装する包袋17はその長さが最大で850mm以上のものもあり、搬入コンベヤ20によって部位を、その後域の搬出コンベヤ40まで運ぶには運動量が大きいので、前記可動吸盤43の後域に、同可動吸盤43と一体に動作する補助吸盤96を配置し、図18に示すごとく可動吸盤43が包袋17の袋口を持ち上げ開口する場合、前記補助吸盤96は袋底を同じように持ち上げることになるので、搬出コンベヤ40の突き出しでもって、対向する搬入コンベヤ20の運動量を小さくする。   The bag loading unit 30 in FIG. 3 has a configuration in which the packaging bag 17 affixed to the tape 18 is pulled out by winding the tape 18, but the bag loading unit 91 in FIG. The height level of the wrapped bag 17 is monitored by a sensor 93, and the board 92 is raised and raised through rack teeth 95 that mesh with the pinion 94 so that the upper surface of the wrapped bag 17 is always kept at a constant level. However, the wrapping bag 17 that wraps the part has a maximum length of 850 mm or more, and the part is moved by the carry-in conveyor 20 to the carry-out conveyor 40 in the subsequent area. When an auxiliary suction cup 96 that operates integrally with the movable suction cup 43 is disposed in the area and the movable suction cup 43 lifts and opens the bag mouth of the packaging bag 17 as shown in FIG. 18, the auxiliary suction cup 96 has the same bag bottom. Therefore, the amount of movement of the opposite carry-in conveyor 20 is reduced by the protrusion of the carry-out conveyor 40.

なお図17において載積した包袋17の開口縁と対向する壁97は、流体シリンダー98でもって動作する袋口押さえる爪99を備える。詳しくは図19において、この屈折した形状の押さえ爪99は、壁97に枢支した揺動リンク101に回転自在に支持し、流体シリンダー98の運動動力によって仮想線と実線との領域を移動するもので、可動吸盤43が開口した包袋17の袋口に突入して同袋口下側面を押さえつけて、前記可動吸盤43による同包袋17の開口を確実にする。またピン102を介して昇降材48に枢支する揺動レバー103は、通常、その重量でもってストッパー104に当接して可動吸盤43の吸着面を水平に保つが、図のように昇降材48の下降圧で吸盤43が、載積した包袋17の抵抗を受けることで持ち揚がる運動を利用して同吸盤43に吸着する包袋17の開口縁が開放するので、このタイミングで前記の押さえ爪99は袋口内に突入して同袋口を押さえ込むようになっている。   Note that the wall 97 facing the opening edge of the package 17 loaded in FIG. 17 is provided with a claw 99 for holding the bag mouth that operates with the fluid cylinder 98. In detail, in FIG. 19, this refracted presser claw 99 is rotatably supported by a swing link 101 pivotally supported on a wall 97, and moves between an imaginary line and a solid line by the kinetic power of the fluid cylinder 98. Thus, the movable sucker 43 enters the bag mouth of the open bag 17 and presses the lower side of the bag mouth to secure the opening of the bag 17 by the movable sucker 43. Further, the swinging lever 103 pivotally supported on the lifting material 48 via the pin 102 normally contacts the stopper 104 with its weight and keeps the suction surface of the movable suction cup 43 horizontal, but the lifting material 48 as shown in the figure. The opening edge of the wrapping bag 17 adsorbed on the suction cup 43 is opened by using the movement that the suction cup 43 lifts by receiving the resistance of the loaded wrapping bag 17 by lowering the pressure. The claw 99 enters the bag mouth and presses the bag mouth.

図21は、部位の分別数が増加する場合に対応して、6個の袋載積ユニット30を複数列に配置する構成で、第1のモータ121は前記各袋載積ユニット30を、部位10の搬送コンベヤラインに沿って移動させ、第2のモータ122は、前記各袋載積ユニット30を、前記コンベヤラインと直行する方向に移動させる構成である。また多数の袋載積ユニット30をロータリ軌道に沿って回転させ、発信記録データによって選択する手段も考えられる。   FIG. 21 shows a configuration in which six bag mounting units 30 are arranged in a plurality of rows corresponding to the case where the number of parts to be sorted increases, and the first motor 121 moves each bag mounting unit 30 to a part. The second motor 122 is configured to move each of the bag loading units 30 in a direction perpendicular to the conveyor line. Further, a means for rotating a large number of bag stacking units 30 along a rotary track and selecting them by transmission record data is also conceivable.

図13において部位10を包袋17に押し込む搬入機構20は、その上下の厚みが大きく包袋の口縁に引っかかりやすく大きな包袋を用意する必要があるので、図25では前記搬入機構20のベルトコンベヤの下に、スコップ型の皿140を配置する搬入機構を示す。かかる機構では、ベルトコンベヤの後退運動またはサラ140の前進運動で、部位10を前記皿140上に移し、図26のごとく前記皿140の突き出し運動と、プレート145による押し出し運動とで部位10を包袋17内に押入れるが、この場合においても、包袋のサイズデータを基に、皿140の突き出し運動量と、プレート145による押し出し運動量とをコントロールして、部位10を包袋17と共に後域の搬出コンベヤに移乗させるもので、皿140を支持する溝型柄141内に配置した押し出し棒142をモータ144で操作し、その先端のプレート145で部位10を包袋に押し入れる構造である。なお図27に示すように前記モータ144の動力で回転するギア146は、溝型柄141内の、押し出し棒142の下面に形成したラック歯に係合して回転し、プレート145を前後動するのである。   In FIG. 13, the carrying mechanism 20 that pushes the portion 10 into the wrapping bag 17 has a large thickness at the top and bottom, and it is necessary to prepare a large wrapping bag that is easily caught by the lip of the wrapping bag. The carrying-in mechanism which arrange | positions the scoop-type dish 140 under a conveyor is shown. In such a mechanism, the part 10 is moved onto the dish 140 by the backward movement of the belt conveyor or the forward movement of the flat 140, and the part 10 is wrapped by the protruding movement of the dish 140 and the pushing movement by the plate 145 as shown in FIG. Although it is pushed into the bag 17, in this case as well, based on the size data of the wrapping bag, the protrusion momentum of the dish 140 and the pushing momentum by the plate 145 are controlled, so that the region 10 together with the wrapping bag 17 It is to be transferred to a carry-out conveyor. The push bar 142 disposed in the grooved pattern 141 that supports the dish 140 is operated by a motor 144, and the portion 10 is pushed into the wrapping bag by the plate 145 at the tip. As shown in FIG. 27, the gear 146 rotated by the power of the motor 144 rotates by engaging with the rack teeth formed on the lower surface of the push bar 142 in the groove pattern 141 and moves the plate 145 back and forth. It is.
