Description

  The present invention relates to a dry seaweed production line including means for removing foreign matter from a dry seaweed that has been rejected by an inspection device of the dry seaweed production line and returning it to the dry seaweed production line.

At the laver production site, foreign matter such as sea bream, sea bream, shells, shrimp, insects, wood chips, vinyls, bird feathers, tegus, paper, etc. are mixed into the raw laver when the cultured laver is picked from the laver net. The picked raw nori is shredded finely, and the foreign matter is separated by the foreign matter separating and removing device. However, it is difficult to completely separate and remove the foreign matter cut together with the raw nori. Then, after passing through a paper making process and a dehydrating process by a drying device, the dried laver is produced by drying with warm air.

Of the dry nori obtained in this way, nori on the front or back of the seaweed or in the seaweed, the seaweed with holes is detected by the dry nori production line inspection device and judged as a defective product from the dry nori production line It has been removed.

FIG. 5 shows an example of a conventional dry seaweed production line (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). The dry seaweed unloaded one by one from the seaweed drying apparatus 1 with the back side facing up is reversed by the reversing apparatus 3. The dried dry seaweed is selected by the conveyor 4 and sorted. The selected dried dried seaweed is stacked by the bundling device 6, converged and aligned to form a dried laver bundle. After being folded in two, the paper is bound with a paper tape by the binding device 8, packed in a box and shipped.

In the inspection device 5 of the dry seaweed production line, inspection of the presence or absence of foreign matter such as shells, insects or wood chips, metal, etc. present on the surface or back surface of the dry seaweed, or inspection of the shape such as perforation is performed. Passed dry seaweed and rejected dry seaweed are selected, and rejected dry seaweed is excluded from the line.

In the rejected dry nori, the nori that adheres to the surface or the back side or is present in the nori is not discarded as it is, and it is visually removed one by one by hand using a cutter knife or tweezers. Removed and regenerated, the worker puts the reclaimed dry seaweed one by one between the dry seaweed and the dry seaweed flowing at an appropriate location upstream of the inspection device of the dry seaweed production line.

It is necessary to re-apply the dried seaweed production line inspection device between the dried seaweed and the dried seaweed one by one because it is necessary to re-apply to the inspection equipment of the dried seaweed production line, even though the seaweed that was intended to be removed and regenerated after removing foreign objects If the gap between the seaweed and the seaweed (3cm or more) is not inserted in a straight and moderate manner, it will not be possible to accurately inspect due to overlapping or defective shape, and slanted seaweed may be clogged with the inspection device. is there.

In addition, with the recent increase in the size of drying equipment, the number of laver detected as defectives such as foreign matters is about 1% of the normal average value. The amount of processing increases, and it is necessary to put a large amount of regenerated dry laver straightly between the dry seaweed flowing in the line and the dry seaweed so that it is not inclined diagonally one by one, which greatly increases the burden on the operator In addition to this, there has been a problem that the working time is greatly increased.

Accordingly, the present invention reduces the burden on the operator by accurately returning a large amount of regenerated dry nori that has been regenerated by removing foreign matter from the dry nori removed from the line as an unacceptable product by the inspection device for the dry nori production line. The present invention provides a dry seaweed production line equipped with a regenerated dry seaweed return device.
