  Further, the pin 29 is removed when the foreign matter sorting net 24 is removed.

  Next, the effect of the rice milling equipment of this embodiment will be described.

  In the input chamber 6 of the present embodiment, a certain amount of brown rice can be accommodated by using the input side partition wall 1 on the front side and the side wall 34 inside the building T as a part of the input chamber 6 on the side, The heights of the first inclined plate 20, the second inclined plate 22, and the third inclined plate 23 can be reduced. Therefore, even if the user does not lift the bag H he / she brought high, he / she lays on the floor Y side of the cabin 3 and lays it sideways toward the loading chamber 6 so that most of the brown rice he brings is the loading chamber 6. Can be thrown into. The user can lower the height of lifting the bag H that is a heavy object, and is easy to put in.

  Moreover, since the carried bag H can be laid down sideways along the bag mounting plate 21, it is easy to mount.

  In addition, the harness 25a, 26a of the grain presence / absence detection sensor 25, the rice bran / brown rice discrimination sensor 26, and the transport drive motor 27 of the transport spiral 7 are provided in a place away from the cabin 3, so that it is difficult to break down and is maintained by the administrator. Easy to do.

  The input chamber 6 of the present embodiment is provided in a part of the space of the guest room 3 so as to secure the input capacity and to isolate the input chamber 6 from the guest room 3 during non-rice-milling operation. It is a feature. The input room 6 is provided on one side of the left and right sides of the guest room 3, and the side wall 34 of the building T is used as a part of the input room 6. The input room 6 is partitioned in the center of the guest room 3. It is also possible to provide a closing door 18 on the left and right sides. Moreover, the structure which uses the entrance partition 6 front partition wall 16 as the opening opening / closing door 18 is also possible.

  In addition, the charging chamber 6 of the present embodiment is configured such that the length in the front-rear direction is longer than the length in the left-right direction, and the charging door 18 is provided in a posture along the front-rear direction. 18 can be made large, and it is also characterized in that the user can easily put brown rice.

  Next, the external appearance of the building T will be described.

  A front signboard 36 protruding upward from the roof 35 is attached to the front side of the building T. The roof 35 of the building T is formed to be inclined downward toward the rear side, and protrudes rearward from the rear wall 37. A rear signboard 38 is provided at a position separated from the rear end of the roof 35 by a set distance. The rear signboard 38 is attached to a rear signboard attachment portion 39 attached to the rear wall 37 side. That is, the rear signboard attachment portion 39 is configured in a U shape in a plan view, so that the rainwater on the roof 35 can flow smoothly to the rear side by being separated from the rear end portion of the roof 35. In addition, an upper hook 40 is provided on the upper surface of the roof 35 pillar to lift the rice milling equipment with a crane or the like. 41 is provided. The front signboard 36 is an electric signboard so that it can be operated at night.

  Next, lighting control of the lighting 44 in the cabin 3 will be described.

  When the human detection sensor 43 detects that the user has approached the guest room 3 or entered the guest room 3 at night, the lighting 44 of the guest room 3 is turned on. When the human detection sensor 43 detects that the user has left the cabin 3, the illumination 44 is turned off. However, during the rice milling operation, even if the human detection sensor 43 detects that the user has left the cabin 3, the lighting unit 44 is controlled by the control unit S so as to remain lit. As a result, even if the user temporarily needs to leave the cabin 3 during the rice milling operation, the user does not feel suspicious because the lighting 44 continues to be lit. Moreover, it can show to the user who is away from the building T that the rice milling operation is in progress. Further, at night, when the rice milling operation is not performed, turning off the lighting 44 of the cabin 3 saves energy, and the running cost of the manager can be reduced. Moreover, even if the lighting 44 of the guest room 3 is turned off, the lighting can be continued even at night by using the front signboard 36 as an electric signboard, so that it is possible to show that the person in the vicinity is in business. In addition, during the rice milling operation is the time from when the user inputs a fee until the set time (for example, 1 minute) elapses after the rice milling operation is stopped for the amount of time and the rice milling operation is stopped. . Of course, even if the lighting 44 of the guest room 3 is turned off when the user is absent after the completion of the rice milling operation, it goes without saying that the lighting 44 is turned on when it is detected that the user has returned to the guest room 3.

  In general, it is well known in the toilet or the like that the illumination 44 is turned on when a person is detected by the human detection sensor 43, and is turned off when the human detection sensor 43 stops detecting a person. When driving, even if the human detection sensor 43 detects the absence of a user, the lighting 44 in the cabin 3 is not turned off.

  Although this embodiment describes a fee-type rice milling facility dedicated to brown rice, the present invention can also be implemented for a building-type rice milling mill facility that uses rice bran to make milled rice.
