Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sorting device capable of suppressing the noise emission and assuring easy maintenance. <P>SOLUTION: The sorting device includes a plurality of cells, each being equipped with transport rollers 2 mounted at both ends of a rotary shaft 1, a magnetic cylinder 3 attached to the central part of the rotary shaft 1 rigidly, a magnetic disc 5 attached to the forefront of a drive shaft 4 directed perpendicularly to the rotary shaft 1 and arranged in proximity to the magnetic cylinder 3 so as to put it in the following motion, and a revolving means to change the direction of the transport rollers 2 around the drive shaft 4. As the magnetic cylinder 3 and the magnetic disc 5 constitute a contactless power transmitting mechanism, the noise drops remarkably compared with the arrangement in which a mechanical type transmitting apparatus is incorporated. The merits therein are that no oiling is required to the part with the power transmitting mechanism and no dust is emitted. This power transmitting part is maintenance-free because the magnetic forces of the magnetic cylinder and magnetic disc last semi-permanently. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、段ボールケース、新聞梱包物、書籍梱包物等を搬送するライン上において搬送物を分岐させたり合流させたりする仕分装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a sorting apparatus that branches or merges conveyed items on a line for conveying cardboard cases, newspaper packages, book packages, and the like.

従来より、この種の仕分装置としては、ローラーを組み込んだ回転式のものが広く用いられており、一個のローラーによって仕分を行う大型のものと、分岐部に配置した複数のローラーによって仕分を行う小型のものがある。このうち小型のものは、搬送物が列を通過した時点で方向を変更できるため、大型のものに比べて搬送ピッチを短くできるという利点がある。   Conventionally, as this kind of sorting apparatus, a rotary type incorporating a roller has been widely used, and sorting is performed by a large one that sorts by a single roller and a plurality of rollers arranged in a branch portion. There is a small one. Among these, the small one has the advantage that the conveyance pitch can be shortened compared to the large one because the direction can be changed when the conveyed product passes through the row.

上記した従来の仕分装置は、一つのローラーを用いる大型のものはもちろんのこと、複数のローラーを並べた小型のものでも、各ローラーの駆動には、ギア、チェーン、タイミングベルト等の伝動機器を使用するのが一般的である。このため、騒音や粉塵が発生したり、また破損を起こしたりする問題があり、給油を必要とするというメンテナンスの問題もある。   The conventional sorting device described above is not only a large one using a single roller, but also a small one in which a plurality of rollers are arranged. In order to drive each roller, a transmission device such as a gear, a chain, or a timing belt is used. It is common to use. For this reason, there is a problem that noise and dust are generated and damage is caused, and there is also a maintenance problem that requires refueling.

本発明は、上記のような問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、低騒音化を図ることができ、メンテナンスも容易な仕分装置を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a sorting apparatus that can reduce noise and can be easily maintained.

上記の目的を達成するため、本発明の仕分装置は、複数のセルを配置してなる仕分装置であって、各セルは、回転軸の両端にそれぞれ取り付けられた搬送ローラーと、回転軸の中央部に一体的に取り付けられた磁気円筒と、回転軸と直交する向きの駆動軸の先端に取り付けられ、磁気円筒に近接して配置されることで磁気円筒を従動せしめる磁気円盤と、駆動軸の周りで搬送ローラーの向きを変更できる旋回手段とを備えることを特徴としている。   In order to achieve the above object, the sorting device of the present invention is a sorting device in which a plurality of cells are arranged, and each cell has a transport roller attached to both ends of the rotating shaft and the center of the rotating shaft. A magnetic cylinder that is integrally attached to the unit, a magnetic disk that is attached to the tip of the drive shaft in a direction orthogonal to the rotation axis, and that is arranged close to the magnetic cylinder to drive the magnetic cylinder; and It is characterized by comprising turning means capable of changing the direction of the transport roller around.

本発明の仕分装置は、搬送ローラーの回転軸に取り付けられた磁気円筒と駆動軸の先端に取り付けられた磁気円盤とが非接触の動力伝達機構を構成するので、機械式の伝動機器を使用したものに比べて騒音が著しく低下し、しかも、動力伝達機構の部分では給油の必要がなく、粉塵も出ないというメリットがある。また、動力伝達機構を構成する磁気円筒と磁気円盤の磁力は半永久的に持続するので、この動力伝達部分はメンテナンスフリーである。さらに、搬送物を噛み込んだ際も磁力以上の力が加わらないため破損の軽減ができ、人身災害においてもその軽減を図ることができる。   The sorting apparatus of the present invention uses a mechanical transmission device because the magnetic cylinder attached to the rotation shaft of the transport roller and the magnetic disk attached to the tip of the drive shaft constitute a non-contact power transmission mechanism. The noise is significantly lower than that of the motor, and the power transmission mechanism does not require refueling and does not generate dust. Further, since the magnetic force of the magnetic cylinder and the magnetic disk constituting the power transmission mechanism is maintained semipermanently, this power transmission portion is maintenance-free. Furthermore, since a force greater than the magnetic force is not applied even when the transported object is bitten, damage can be reduced, and the injury can be reduced even in a human injury.

以下、具体例を挙げて本発明の実施の形態について説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with specific examples.

図１は本発明の仕分装置に用いるセルの基本構成を示す概略構成図、図２は図１のＸ−Ｘ断面での構成を示す断面図である。   FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing a basic configuration of a cell used in the sorting apparatus of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a configuration in the XX section of FIG.

図１及び図２に示すように、セルＣは、回転軸１の両端にそれぞれ取り付けられた搬送ローラー２と、回転軸１の中央部に一体的に取り付けられた磁気円筒３と、回転軸１と直交する向きの駆動軸４の先端に取り付けられ、磁気円筒３に近接して配置されることで磁気円筒３を従動せしめる磁気円盤５とを備えている。搬送ローラー２と磁気円筒３を取り付けた回転軸１は、Ｕ字型をしたフレーム６の対向する側板６ａで水平に支持されており、磁気円盤５を回転させるための駆動軸４は、フレーム６における底板６ｂの下側に配置された旋回軸受ユニットにより垂直に支持されている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cell C includes a transport roller 2 attached to both ends of the rotary shaft 1, a magnetic cylinder 3 attached integrally to the central portion of the rotary shaft 1, and the rotary shaft 1. And a magnetic disk 5 that is attached to the tip of the drive shaft 4 in a direction orthogonal to the magnetic cylinder 3 and that is arranged close to the magnetic cylinder 3 to drive the magnetic cylinder 3. The rotating shaft 1 to which the conveying roller 2 and the magnetic cylinder 3 are attached is horizontally supported by opposing side plates 6a of a U-shaped frame 6, and the driving shaft 4 for rotating the magnetic disk 5 is a frame 6. Is supported vertically by a slewing bearing unit disposed below the bottom plate 6b.

磁気円筒３と磁気円盤５は、それらの対向面に、交互に異なる極性を外側にした磁石を等間隔で配列してあり、磁気円筒３と磁気円盤５は接触していないが、これらの磁石間の磁力により磁気円盤５はその回転に伴って磁気円筒３を従動せしめ、これによって駆動軸４から回転軸１へ動力を伝達するようになっている。   The magnetic cylinder 3 and the magnetic disk 5 have magnets alternately arranged with different polarities on the opposing surfaces arranged at equal intervals, and the magnetic cylinder 3 and the magnetic disk 5 are not in contact with each other. Due to the magnetic force between them, the magnetic disk 5 follows the rotation of the magnetic cylinder 3 and thereby transmits power from the drive shaft 4 to the rotary shaft 1.

フレーム６の底板６ｂには駆動軸４が通る孔が設けられており、その孔と合致するところで底板６ｂの裏側には接続部分７ａを突設した旋回プーリー７が駆動軸４を貫通させる状態で一体的に取り付けられている。また、セルＣは固定プレート８に取り付けられるが、この固定プレート８には駆動軸４が通る孔が設けられおり、その孔のところには旋回プーリー７の軸受ユニット９が取り付けられている。したがって、旋回モーターあるいは他のアクチュエータによりこの旋回プーリー７を回動させることで、Ｕ字型のフレーム６が駆動軸４の周りで旋回し、これによって搬送ローラー２の向きを駆動軸４の周りで変更することができる。   The bottom plate 6b of the frame 6 is provided with a hole through which the drive shaft 4 passes. A rotating pulley 7 having a connecting portion 7a protruding on the back side of the bottom plate 6b is formed so as to pass through the drive shaft 4 at a position coincident with the hole. It is attached integrally. The cell C is attached to the fixed plate 8. The fixed plate 8 is provided with a hole through which the drive shaft 4 passes, and the bearing unit 9 of the turning pulley 7 is attached to the hole. Accordingly, the U-shaped frame 6 is rotated around the drive shaft 4 by rotating the swing pulley 7 by a swing motor or other actuator, whereby the direction of the transport roller 2 is rotated around the drive shaft 4. Can be changed.

図３は本発明に係る仕分装置に用いるセルの一例を示す上面図、図４は同じく側面図である。   FIG. 3 is a top view showing an example of a cell used in the sorting apparatus according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a side view of the same.

これらの図において１１は搬送ローラー１２を支持するためのフレームで、このフレーム１１は平面視で十字形をしており、搬送ローラー１２の回転軸１３を支持するＵ字型の中央部分１１ａの両サイドに小さなＵ字型をした突設部分１１ｂが設けられ、それらの突設部分１１ｂには従動ローラー１４が搬送ローラー１２と同じ向きで水平に支持されている。搬送ローラー１２はフレーム１１の中央部分１１ａの側板の内側に位置するように回転軸１３に取り付けられている。そして、回転軸１３には、その中央部に磁気円筒１５が一体的に取り付けられている。なお、図４では回転軸１３を見やすくするため従動ローラー１４の図示を省略している。   In these drawings, reference numeral 11 denotes a frame for supporting the transport roller 12. The frame 11 has a cross shape in plan view, and both U-shaped central portions 11a that support the rotation shaft 13 of the transport roller 12 are provided. A small U-shaped protruding portion 11b is provided on the side, and a driven roller 14 is horizontally supported in the protruding portion 11b in the same direction as the conveying roller 12. The transport roller 12 is attached to the rotary shaft 13 so as to be located inside the side plate of the central portion 11 a of the frame 11. A magnetic cylinder 15 is integrally attached to the rotary shaft 13 at the center. In FIG. 4, the driven roller 14 is not shown to make the rotating shaft 13 easier to see.

搬送ローラー１２の回転軸１３と直交する向きで駆動軸１６が配置され、その駆動軸１６の先端に磁気円盤１７が取り付けられている。すなわち、磁気円盤１７は自らの回転により磁気円筒１５を従動せしめるように磁気円筒１５に近接して配置されている。駆動軸１６は駆動モーター１８に取り付けられており、この駆動モーター１８が磁気円盤１７を回転させることで、磁気円筒１５が回転され、搬送ローラー１２が駆動される。   A drive shaft 16 is arranged in a direction orthogonal to the rotation shaft 13 of the transport roller 12, and a magnetic disk 17 is attached to the tip of the drive shaft 16. That is, the magnetic disk 17 is disposed in the vicinity of the magnetic cylinder 15 so that the magnetic cylinder 15 is driven by its own rotation. The drive shaft 16 is attached to a drive motor 18, and when the drive motor 18 rotates the magnetic disk 17, the magnetic cylinder 15 is rotated and the transport roller 12 is driven.

フレーム１１の底板には駆動軸１６が通る孔が設けられており、その孔と合致するところで底板の裏側には接続部分１９を突設した旋回プーリー２０が駆動軸１６を貫通させる状態で一体的に取り付けられている。この旋回プーリー２０は旋回モーター２１（もしくは他のアクチュエータ）に連動しており、フレーム１１を水平方向で任意の角度に傾けることで搬送ローラー１２の搬送方向を決めるようになっている。なお、駆動モーター１８と旋回モーター２１を除いた部分（図の点線で囲む部分）をセルＣと呼ぶ。このセルＣを複数行列式に配置することによって様々な形態の仕分装置を構成することができる。図中２２は旋回プーリーの軸受ユニットであり、セルＣを固定プレートに取り付ける役目をも同時に果たす部材である。また、図中２３，２４は駆動軸１６と駆動モーター１８の接続部材である。   A hole through which the drive shaft 16 passes is provided in the bottom plate of the frame 11, and a revolving pulley 20 having a connection portion 19 protruding on the back side of the bottom plate is formed integrally with the hole so as to penetrate the drive shaft 16. Is attached. The swing pulley 20 is linked to a swing motor 21 (or other actuator), and the transport direction of the transport roller 12 is determined by tilting the frame 11 at an arbitrary angle in the horizontal direction. A portion excluding the drive motor 18 and the turning motor 21 (portion surrounded by a dotted line in the figure) is called a cell C. By arranging the cells C in a plurality of determinants, various types of sorting apparatuses can be configured. In the figure, reference numeral 22 denotes a bearing unit for the swivel pulley, which is a member that simultaneously serves to attach the cell C to the fixed plate. In the figure, reference numerals 23 and 24 denote connecting members for the drive shaft 16 and the drive motor 18.

図５は仕分装置の構成例を示す平面図である。セルを３行６列に配置しているが、用途によって変更可能である。この仕分装置によれば、図５において搬送物がＡ方向から搬送されるとすると、セルによりＢ，Ｃ，Ｄ方向へ仕分ができる。   FIG. 5 is a plan view showing a configuration example of the sorting apparatus. The cells are arranged in 3 rows and 6 columns, but can be changed depending on the application. According to this sorting apparatus, if the conveyed product is conveyed from the A direction in FIG. 5, the cells can be sorted in the B, C, and D directions.

この図５のように複数のセルを行列式に配置するには、４箇所に孔の開いた板状の円形カバー３１を個々のセルに被せ、搬送ローラー１２と従動ローラー１４の頭部分を露出させた状態とする。円形カバー３１は、図３のフレーム１１の側板に取り付けた腕部材１１ｃの上に載置するようにしてセットする（図２で仮想線で示す）。さらに、円形カバー３１が３列３行でセットされる孔を設けた矩形状の天板３２を用意し、この天板３２の下に９個のセルをセットする。搬送物はこの天板３２上を搬送されつつセルの搬送ローラー１２により搬送方向が変えられることになる。搬送ローラー１２は自ら回転して搬送物を前進させるが、従動ローラー１４は搬送物の接触により回転することでライン上をスムースに送る役目を果たす。そして、９個のセルをセットした仕分装置を２つ並べて搬送ラインの途中に配置する。   In order to arrange a plurality of cells in a deterministic manner as shown in FIG. 5, plate-like circular covers 31 having holes at four positions are placed on the individual cells, and the head portions of the transport roller 12 and the driven roller 14 are exposed. Let the state be The circular cover 31 is set so as to be placed on the arm member 11c attached to the side plate of the frame 11 in FIG. 3 (indicated by phantom lines in FIG. 2). Further, a rectangular top plate 32 having holes in which the circular cover 31 is set in three columns and three rows is prepared, and nine cells are set under the top plate 32. The transport direction of the transported object is changed by the transport roller 12 of the cell while being transported on the top plate 32. The conveyance roller 12 rotates by itself to advance the conveyed product, but the driven roller 14 is rotated by contact with the conveyed product to smoothly feed the line. Then, two sorting apparatuses in which nine cells are set are arranged side by side in the conveyance line.

図５のように複数のセルを行列式に配置する場合、列ごとにユニット化して装置の簡略化を図ることができる。例えば、旋回モーターをロッドエンドで繋いで同期させることにより、列に対し旋回モーターを１つとすることができる。また、各セルをタイミングベルトで同期させることで、駆動モーターを少なくすることができる。   When a plurality of cells are arranged in a determinant as shown in FIG. 5, the apparatus can be simplified by unitizing each column. For example, one swivel motor can be provided for a row by connecting and synchronizing the swivel motors with rod ends. Also, the drive motor can be reduced by synchronizing each cell with a timing belt.

図６は図５に示す仕分装置の動作例を説明するための図であり、この例では片側仕分の場合を示している。   FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining an example of the operation of the sorting apparatus shown in FIG. 5. In this example, the case of one-side sorting is shown.

図６（ａ）は、１番目の搬送物Ｈ1 が２列目を通過し、２番目の搬送物Ｈ2 が１列目を通過しようとする時のセルの向きを示している。このように１番目の搬送物Ｈ1 が２列目を通過し終えると、図６（ｂ）に示すように２列目のセルを２番目の搬送物Ｈ2 の仕分方向である左側に傾ける。そして、図６（ｃ）〜（ｆ）に示すように、１番目の搬送物Ｈ1 が通過した列のセルを順々に左側に傾けることにより、２番目の搬送物Ｈ2 を仕分装置の左側へ仕分することができる。また、図６（ｇ）は、２番目の搬送物Ｈ2 が２列目を通過して左側に仕分され、３番目の搬送物Ｈ3 が１列目を通過しようとする状態を示している。このように、２番目の搬送物Ｈ2 が２列目を通過し終えると、図６（ｇ）に示すように１列目のセルを真っ直ぐに戻す。そして、図６（ｈ）〜（ｋ）に示すように、３番目の搬送物Ｈ3 が差し掛かる列のセルを順々に真っ直ぐに戻すことにより、３番目の搬送物Ｈ2 を真っ直ぐに搬送することができる。 FIG. 6A shows the direction of the cell when the first transported object H 1 passes through the second row and the second transported object H 2 tries to pass through the first row. When the first transported object H 1 finishes passing through the second row in this way, the cells in the second row are tilted to the left as the sorting direction of the second transported object H 2 as shown in FIG. 6B. . Then, as shown in FIG. 6 (c) ~ (f) , by tilting the left side of the first cell of the conveyed object column H 1 passes in sequence, the second sorting device conveyed object H 2 Sort to the left. FIG. 6G shows a state in which the second transported object H 2 passes through the second row and is sorted to the left, and the third transported object H 3 attempts to pass through the first row. . Thus, when the second transported object H 2 has passed through the second column, the cells in the first column are returned straight as shown in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 6 (h) ~ (k) , by straight return third conveyed object H 3 are approaches cell of the column in sequence, the third conveyed object H 2 straight conveying can do.

このように、図５の仕分装置では、搬送物が列を通過した後、セルを直ぐに次の仕分方向に傾けることで搬送ピッチを短くでき、大型の回転式仕分装置よりも低速で、高速仕分が可能である。図６の例は片側仕分であるが、両側も可能である。ただし、セルの回転時間の関係で搬送ピッチが多少長くなる。   As described above, in the sorting apparatus shown in FIG. 5, the transport pitch can be shortened by tilting the cell immediately in the next sorting direction after the transported material passes through the row, and at a lower speed and faster than the large-scale rotary sorting apparatus. Is possible. The example of FIG. 6 is one-sided sorting, but both sides are possible. However, the transport pitch is somewhat longer due to the cell rotation time.

図７は仕分装置の別の構成例を示す平面図である。セルを中央に１個と各辺の中程に沿って２個ずつの計９個を配置しているが、この配置も用途によって変更可能である。図８はこの仕分装置を使用した搬送ラインの一例であり、搬送物Ｈの流れ方向を変えることなく、種々の方向へ仕分ができる。   FIG. 7 is a plan view showing another configuration example of the sorting apparatus. A total of nine cells, one in the center and two along the middle of each side, are arranged, but this arrangement can also be changed depending on the application. FIG. 8 shows an example of a conveying line using this sorting apparatus, and sorting can be performed in various directions without changing the flow direction of the conveyed product H.

この図７のように複数のセルを配置するには、前記と同様に、４箇所に孔の開いた板状の円形カバー３１を個々のセルに被せ、搬送ローラー１２と従動ローラー１４の頭部分を露出させた状態とする。円形カバー３１は、図３のフレーム１１の側板に取り付けた腕部材１１ｃの上に載置するようにしてセットする（図２で仮想線で示す）。そして、円形カバー３１が図示の配置でセットされる孔を設けた矩形状の天板３３を用意し、この天板３３の下に９個のセルをセットする。搬送物はこの天板３３上を搬送されつつセルの搬送ローラー１２により搬送方向が変えられることになる。そして、９個のセルをセットした仕分装置を図８の如く搬送ラインの途中に配置する。   In order to arrange a plurality of cells as shown in FIG. 7, a plate-like circular cover 31 having holes in four places is placed on each cell in the same manner as described above, and the head portions of the transport roller 12 and the driven roller 14 are placed. Is exposed. The circular cover 31 is set so as to be placed on the arm member 11c attached to the side plate of the frame 11 in FIG. 3 (indicated by phantom lines in FIG. 2). Then, a rectangular top plate 33 having holes in which the circular cover 31 is set in the illustrated arrangement is prepared, and nine cells are set under the top plate 33. The transport direction of the transported object is changed by the transport roller 12 of the cell while being transported on the top plate 33. Then, a sorting apparatus in which nine cells are set is arranged in the middle of the transport line as shown in FIG.

図７のように複数のセルを配置する場合、搬送方向を変えることなく、移載したり合流するため、図８に示した方向に搬送できるよう、各セルを搬送方向に準じた角度に傾けるとともに、セルごとに速度を調整する必要がある。そのため、それぞれのセルに、旋回モーターと駆動モーターを取り付けている。この時の搬送物としては、梱包前の新聞、雑誌等を予測している。   When arranging a plurality of cells as shown in FIG. 7, the cells are transferred or merged without changing the transport direction, so that each cell is inclined at an angle according to the transport direction so that it can be transported in the direction shown in FIG. At the same time, it is necessary to adjust the speed for each cell. Therefore, a turning motor and a drive motor are attached to each cell. Predicted newspapers, magazines, etc. before packing are predicted as conveyed items at this time.

図９は図７に示す仕分装置の動作例を説明するための図であり、ここでは図８に対応させて図示している。   FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining an example of the operation of the sorting apparatus shown in FIG. 7. Here, FIG. 9 is shown corresponding to FIG.

図９（ａ）は、図８における矢印ａ（左合流方向）場合のセルの向きを示している。同様に、図９（ｂ）は図８における矢印ｂ（右合流方向）の場合、図９（ｃ）は図８における矢印ｃ（左曲がり方向）の場合、図９（ｄ）は図８における矢印ｄ（直進方向）の場合、図９（ｅ）は図８における矢印ｅ（右曲がり方向）の場合、図９（ｆ）は図８における矢印ｆ（左右方向）の場合のセルの向きをそれぞれ示している。   FIG. 9A shows the direction of the cell in the case of the arrow a (left merge direction) in FIG. Similarly, FIG. 9B shows the case of the arrow b (the right merge direction) in FIG. 8, FIG. 9C shows the case of the arrow c (the left turn direction) in FIG. 8, and FIG. In the case of the arrow d (straight direction), FIG. 9 (e) shows the direction of the cell in the case of the arrow e (right turn direction) in FIG. 8, and FIG. 9 (f) shows the direction of the cell in the case of the arrow f (left / right direction) in FIG. Each is shown.

このように、図７の仕分装置では、搬送物の流れに対応して各セルの向きを個別に制御することにより、搬送方向を変えることなく、素早く移載したり合流させたりすることができる。   As described above, in the sorting apparatus shown in FIG. 7, by individually controlling the direction of each cell corresponding to the flow of the conveyed product, it is possible to quickly transfer and merge the cells without changing the conveyance direction. .

以上、本発明の実施の形態について詳細に説明してきたが、本発明による仕分装置は、上記実施の形態に何ら限定されるものではなく、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲において種々の変更が可能であることは当然のことである。   The embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above. However, the sorting apparatus according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It is natural to be.
