  FIG. 1 is a schematic layout diagram of the trimming device. The trimming device 10 includes a positioning device 20, a cutting device 30 and a blade receiving plate 40 that constitute a cutting machine, and a separation loading device 50. A molding machine 12 such as a heat molding machine processes the sheet S at a pitch of a predetermined width (for example, 1 m), and the formed sheet is conveyed to a positioning device 20 by a conveyor 14 and positioned.

  FIG. 2 is a view showing a part of the sheet that has been formed. FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view of the formed sheet. The sheet S is formed of a sheet made of a synthetic resin such as a plastic here, and the forming machine 12 forms a formed processing portion S1 which is regularly and two-dimensionally arranged. The forming part S1 has a shape which becomes a food tray here.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic plan view of the trimming device 10. The sheet conveyance between the positioning device 20 and the cutting table 32 described in FIG. 1 is performed by the conveyance device 15 which can reciprocate between them. The transport device 15 can move in the section B1 along the rail 120 and can move up and down.

  The transport device 15 includes a suction unit 16, which sucks the sheet S transferred to the positioning device 20 and moves up. Then, after moving to the cutting device 30, the sheet S is lowered, and the sheet S is placed on the cutting blade table 32 of the cutting device 30. The cutting table 32 is provided with a Thomson blade arranged in accordance with the position of the forming portion S1 formed on the sheet S, and is moved by a moving mechanism (not shown) in a direction perpendicular to the sheet of paper, that is, in a direction perpendicular to the sheet conveying direction (FIG. (See direction B).

  The cutting table 32 on which the formed sheet S is placed moves to below the blade receiving plate 40 and is raised by the lifting mechanism 34. Thereby, the sheet S is cut (cut press). With the cut sheet S still in a non-separated state, the cutting blade base 32 descends and returns to the original position. During this time, the transport device 15 has returned above the positioning device 20.

  The moving device 110 is movable between the cutting device 30 and the separation and stacking device 50 (section B2) along the rail 120, sucks the cut sheet S by the suction unit 115, and moves to the separation and stacking device 50. Let it. When the cutting blade base 32 on which the cut and processed sheet S is placed returns to the original position, the moving device 110 descends. Then, the moving device 110 adsorbs the sheet S, moves up, and moves to the separation stacking device 50. The formed sheet S also includes a sheet in which the formed portion S1 is in a state where it is desired to be separated or a cut portion which has not been partially cut, unless the separating operation is actively performed even after cutting. .

  FIG. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the separation unit 60 of the separation loading device 50 as viewed partially from the side. The separation unit 60 includes a separation table 65 in which the partitioning plates are arranged in a lattice pattern in accordance with the arrangement of the forming portion S1 of the sheet S. When the sheet S sucked by the suction unit 115 by the lowering of the moving device 110 reaches the separation unit 65, the moving device 110 stops lowering. At the same time, when the roller 63 falls down, the end of the sheet S is clamped in cooperation with the roller 62. In FIG. 4, the illustration of the rollers 63 is omitted.

  When the unseparated sheet S is clamped, the moving device 110 further descends, and the suction unit 115 pushes the sheet S into the separation table 65. As a result, a formed portion (hereinafter, also referred to as a molded product) S <b> 1 is separated from the sheet S for each region partitioned by the lattice-shaped partition plate. The suction unit 115 of the moving device 110 stops the suction when it reaches the lowermost position, and places the molded product S1 on the stacking unit 70 provided below the separation unit 60. On the other hand, the remaining waste sheet S2 from which the molded product S1 has been removed is conveyed to the conveyor 300 by the rollers 62 and 63 and the rollers 65 and 66.

  The transfer device 15 and the transfer device 110 illustrated in FIG. 4 move integrally along the rail 120. When the separation of the molded product S is completed, the transport device 15 and the transport device 110 move to the information of the positioning device 120 and the cutting device 30, respectively. The transport device 15 adsorbs the sheet S transported to the positioning device 20, while the transport device 110 has the cut blade 32 mounted on the extraction blade table 32 returned to the cutting device 30 from the direction of the blade receiving plate 40. The sheet S is sucked. The transporting device 15 and the transporting device 110 move upward to move above the cutting device 30 and the separating and stacking device 50, respectively. The transporting device 15 places the sheet S on the cutting blade base 32, while the transporting device 15 moves to the separating portion 60. It descends and the molded article S is separated.

  The trimming device 10 repeatedly performs such a series of trimming steps at predetermined time intervals (for example, about several seconds). Each time the molded product S1 is separated from the sheet S, the loading unit 70 provided below the separating unit 60 is lowered by the thickness of the molded product. By repeatedly performing the trimming process, the molded products S1 are stacked on the stacking unit 70 in accordance with the divided areas.

  The movement / stop and positioning of the transfer devices 15, 110, the cutting blade table 32, the stacking unit 70, and the like accompanying trimming can be realized by an actuator such as a servomotor, and the operation is controlled by a controller (not shown). The configuration of the trimming device 10 may be a configuration that does not depend on the positioning device 20, the cutting device 30, the blade receiving plate 40, and the transfer devices 15 and 110 described above. The sheet S is cut in the process up to this point, and any configuration may be used as long as the sheet S that has been formed and cut can be continuously supplied to the separation stacking device 50.

  When the number of stacked articles S1 in the loading section 70 reaches a predetermined number (for example, 50), the pusher 400 (see FIG. 1) pushes out the articles S1 loaded in the loading section 70 to the conveyor 200. The loading section 70 rises after the molded article S1 is discharged, and supports the molded article S1 separated from the sheet S by the separating section 60 while descending. Such loading and discharging of the molded product S1 is repeatedly performed in the loading section 70.

  The loading unit 70 according to the present embodiment includes a temporary receiving member that is temporarily used so that the molded product S1 separated by the separation unit 60 can be loaded while the molded product S1 is being discharged. It is provided with a configuration. Therefore, the sheets S can be continuously and continuously supplied to the trimming device 10 at predetermined time intervals.

  6 and 7 show a schematic side view and a schematic plan view of a temporary receiving member (temporary supporting member) of the loading section 70. FIG. 8 and 9 show a schematic side view and a schematic plan view of a support base (support member) of the loading unit 70. FIG. The configuration of the loading unit 70 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  The loading section 70 includes a temporary receiving member 80 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 and a support base 90 shown in FIGS. The temporary receiving member 80 is a receiving member on which the molded product S1 is temporarily placed while the molded product S1 is being discharged, and partially supports the bottom surface of the molded product S1 in each partitioned area, that is, is in partial contact. As shown in FIG. 7, the temporary receiving member 80 includes a support rod 84 that supports the molded product S1 arranged in a comb shape, and a base portion 82 to which the support rod 84 is connected. Here, the support rods 84 are formed in a pipe shape and are arranged at equal intervals. Note that the support rod 84 may be formed in a prismatic shape.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the support base 90 includes a support portion 92 forming a tooth mold surface and a vacuum box table 94. The (temporary support member 84) and the (support rod 84) of the temporary support member 90 are formed in shapes complementary to each other, and the support table is set so that the support rod 84 fits into the tooth-shaped valley portion of the support part 92. The 90 tooth mold surface shapes, the sizes of the support rods 84, and the arrangement intervals are determined. Here, the molded product S1 is supported by a plurality of support rods 84 or tooth-shaped peak portions of the support portion 92.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a flow of collection (loading and discharging cycle) of the molded product S1. Hereinafter, the loading and discharging cycle of the molded product S1 will be described.

  The support table 90 can be moved up and down by an elevating mechanism 95, and can be moved from a maximum ascending position (hereinafter, referred to as an initial mounting position) P at which a molded article is first mounted to a discharge position Q (hereinafter, referred to as molding). An area where the article S1 is loaded and the support table 90 moves up and down is referred to as an elevating area). However, the initial loading position P and the discharging position Q represent positions along the height direction in the separation loading device 50.

  As described above, the support base 90 descends stepwise as the molded products S1 are stacked (see S101 in FIG. 10). During this time, the support table 90 vacuum-adsorbs the molded product by the vacuum box table 94. The temporary receiving member 80 is supported by a holding mechanism (not shown) at a location (hereinafter referred to as a retreat area) outside the elevating area.

  When the number of stacked articles S1 reaches a predetermined number, the support base 90 descends to the discharge position Q which is the lowest position. When the support base 90 reaches the discharge position, the pusher 400 pushes out the molded product S1 on the support base 90 and transfers it to the conveyor 200 (see S102). On the other hand, with the start of the lowering of the support base 90, the temporary receiving member 80 moves laterally from the evacuation area to below the separation unit 60, that is, to the elevating area (see S103).

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the arrangement of the temporary receiving member 80 and the support table 90 during the discharging process. While the molded product S1 is discharged by the pusher 400, the molded product S1 is separated from the sheet S in the separation unit 60. Meanwhile, the temporary receiving member 80 receives the molded product S1 from the suction unit 115 of the transfer device 110 and supports the bottom surface of the molded product S1 at the molded product mounting position P '. The molded article mounting position P 'corresponds to a position where the support base 90 first mounts the molded article (receives the molded article serving as the lowermost layer). The support rod 84 of the temporary receiving member 80 is not in contact with the entire bottom surface of the molded product S1 due to its comb shape, but is in partial contact therewith.

  In the present embodiment, in order to stably support the molded product S1 and smoothly perform support delivery of the molded product S1, the support surface portion of the support rod 84 of the temporary receiving member 80 is subjected to surface modification. I have. Specifically, fine irregularities are formed on the surface in the range of an average roughness Ra of 1 μm to 20 μm by rough surface processing or the like, and a tacky component (such as a silicone high polymer) is embedded in at least a part of the concaves to leave the irregularities. It employs a coating structure with a non-adhesive coating layer formed. For example, the support surface portion of the support rod 84 of the temporary receiving member 80 can be coated with TOSICAL (registered trademark) S. When the above-mentioned support rod 84 is formed in a prismatic shape, only the surface in contact with the molded product S1 needs to be surface-modified.

  The support surface of the support rod 84 may have a suction cup function (performance). By forming a suction layer having a large number of suction cups on the support surface of the molded product S1, and suctioning the molded product S1 under a negative pressure, the bottom surface of the molded product S1 can be reliably supported. For example, a sucker function can be provided by attaching a sheet, a film, or the like having a sucker layer to the support surface. It is also possible to achieve stable support by using a material such as a tape or a sheet having a blower suction or adhesive property. Further, a hole (not shown) for vacuum suction may be provided in the support rod 84 and the support portion 92 of the temporary receiving member 80, and the separated molded product S1 may be sucked and supported. is there.

  Until the discharging process by the pusher 400 is completed, the cutting and separating cycles of the molded product S1 are performed for a predetermined number of times (for example, several times). Therefore, the molded product S1 is stacked on the temporary receiving member 80. The temporary receiving member 80 does not move up and down during that time and continues to support the molded product S1 at the molded product mounting position P '. When the discharging process by the pusher 400 ends, the pusher 400 returns to the retreat area, and the support base 90 moves up toward the temporary receiving member 80 (see S104).

  FIG. 12 is a front view illustrating a state in which the support base 90 supports the molded product again. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing the same state from the side. The support base 90 rises to the initial mounting position P and stops. The initial mounting position P is a position where the support portion 92 supports the bottom surface of the molded product S1 and is higher than the molded product mounting position P 'of the temporary receiving member 80. Thereby, the support of the molded product S1 is instantaneously changed from the temporary receiving member 80 to the support base 90. As described above, since the temporary receiving member 80 has the suction cup function, when the support base 90 comes into contact with the bottom surface of the molded product S1, the molded product S1 can be separated from the temporary receiving member 80 with almost no resistance. In addition, the support exchange of the molded product S1 can be performed smoothly.

  The temporary receiving member 80 releases the vacuum suction, moves laterally, and returns to the retreat area (see S105). On the other hand, the support base 90 descends every time the molded product S1 is separated. While the trimming process is performed, the movement of the temporary receiving member 80 and the support table 90 is repeatedly performed.

  According to the present embodiment, in the separation loading device 50 of the trimming device 10, the molded product S <b> 1 separated by the separation unit 60 is loaded on the loading unit 70 as the support base 90 descends. Then, while discharging the stacked molded products S1 by the pusher 400, the temporary receiving member 80 moves below the separating unit 60, and temporarily supports the separated molded products S1. After the discharge processing of the molded product S1, when the support base 90 is raised and receives the molded product S1, the temporary receiving member 80 is retracted.

  Due to such temporary holding of the temporary receiving member 80, it is possible to separate the molded product even during the discharging process, and it is possible to continuously manufacture the molded product without periodically interrupting the trimming process. . For example, in the case of full operation for 24 hours, the number of molded articles separated during the discharge processing becomes considerable, and the production efficiency is extremely improved. Further, due to the complementary shape between the temporary receiving member 80 and the support member 90, the molded product S1 is continuously supported by any one of the molded products S1 even during the support change of the molded product S1, and the loaded molded products are stably held. Can continue to be mounted.

  In addition, by applying a non-adhesive coating to the support surface of the support rod 84 while having an uneven shape, the molded product S1 is stably supported without slipping, while the initial mounting position P is formed by forming the temporary receiving member 80. When the support of the molded product S1 is transferred from the support rod 84 to the tooth ridge of the support portion 92 by being at a position higher than the product mounting position P ′, the molded product S1 is smoothly moved from the support rod 84 due to non-adhesion. You can leave. Note that a similar surface modification may be applied to the tooth-shaped peak portion of the support portion 92.

  The complementary shape between the temporary receiving member and the supporting member is not limited to the comb shape and the tooth shape described above, but a rod-shaped member supported cantilever is used as a temporary receiving member, and the rod-shaped member is uneven so as to fit into the convex portion. By using the support member formed with the above, it is possible to configure so that the molded product S1 is always supported. In addition, the mounting and the movement of the temporary receiving member and the supporting member in the process of mounting and discharging the molded product are also optional, and if the temporary receiving member temporarily supports the molded product during the discharging process, Good.

  Next, a trimming device according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the second embodiment, a continuous loading / discharging cycle of molded products is performed by replacing two support tables in accordance with the discharge timing.

  FIG. 14 is a schematic plan view of the loading section viewed from above. FIG. 15 is a schematic plan view of the loading section viewed from the side.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the stacking unit 70 includes a support base (first support member) 150 and a support base (second support member) 160. One of the support 150 and the support 160 is selectively integrated with the main body 180. In FIG. 15, the support table 150 is initially positioned at the molded article mounting position P for receiving the molded article, and the support table 160 is mounted on the main body 180 at the discharge position Q.

  The moving mechanism 130 is provided at the initial mounting position P for first receiving a molded product, and moves the support 150 or 160 between the elevating area and the retreat area. The moving mechanism 130 includes a pair of guide rails 130A and 130B extending along both side surfaces of the support table 150. The guide rails 130A and 130B have holding mechanisms 132A and 132B that hold (chuck) the support table 150, respectively. Is provided.

  The guide members 130A and 130B can be moved in a direction approaching and away from the support table 150 by an actuator (not shown). When the guide rails 130A and 130B approach the support table 150 or the support table 160, the holding mechanisms 132A and 132B engage the pins provided at the four corners of the support table 150 to hold the support table 150 or the support table 160. The holding mechanisms 132A, 132B are slidable along the guide rails 130A, 130B, and can move the support table 150 between the elevating area and the retreat area.

  As shown in FIG. 15, a moving mechanism (slide mechanism) 140 having the same configuration as the moving mechanism 130 is provided at the discharge position Q. The moving mechanism 140 includes guide rails 140A and 140B having holding mechanisms 142A and 142B, respectively, and can move the support table 150 or the support table 160 between the elevating area and the retreat area. The lift mechanism 170 provided on the pusher side moves the support table 150 or the support table 160 moved to the retreat position to the initial mounting position P.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a flow of a loading and discharging cycle of the molded product S1. As in the first embodiment, the support table 150 or the support table 160 gradually descends as the main body molded products S1 are stacked (see S201). However, the support 150 or 160 does not vacuum-adsorb the molded product S1.

  When the number of loaded articles S1 reaches the predetermined number, the support 150 or 160 descends to the discharge position Q which is the lowest position. When the support 150 or 160 reaches the discharge position Q, the pusher 400 pushes out the molded product S1 on the support 150 or 160 (S202, see arrow (A) in FIG. 15).

  When the molded article S1 is discharged from the support 150 or 160 (hereinafter, referred to as one support) mounted on the main body 180, the other support 160 or 150 (hereinafter, the other). The support table is waiting at the position where the moving mechanism 130 in the evacuation area is located, that is, at the initial mounting position P.

  The moving mechanism 130 moves the other support stand waiting in the evacuation area to a position below the separation unit 60, that is, to the elevating area at the same time as the discharge process starts. Then, during the discharge processing period, the other support is held by the holding mechanisms 132A and 132B (S203, see arrow B in FIG. 15). Thus, during the discharging process, the molded product S1 is loaded on the other support stand.

  When the discharging process is completed, the pusher 400 is retracted, and the moving mechanism 140 holds one of the support bases and moves to the evacuation area. Then, the main body 180 rises and merges with the other support base. At the same time that the main body 180 holds the other support, the moving mechanism 130 releases the holding of the other support, and moves the holding mechanisms 132A and 132B to the retreat area. The main body 180 gradually descends in accordance with the stack of the molded products S1 (S204, see arrows (C), (D), and (E) in FIG. 15).

  The lift mechanism 170 receives one support base from the moving mechanism 140 after the discharging process, and moves up to the initial mounting position P where the moving mechanism 130 is located (S205, see arrow (C) in FIG. 15). Then, the moving mechanism 130 alternately holds one of the raised supports, and waits for the next discharge process. The cyclic movement between the initial mounting position, the discharge position, the retreat position after the discharge processing, and the retreat position before the replacement of the molded product is repeated with respect to the support base 150 and the support base 160, thereby continuously Trimming is performed.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, the mounting of the molded product S1 is switched between the support tables 150 and 160 in accordance with the discharge timing. Thereby, the molded article can be separated even during the discharging process. In addition, since it is supported by surface contact with the molded product S1, it is not necessary to adsorb it. In addition, as long as the support table is replaced according to the discharge processing timing, application other than the above-described mechanism is also possible.
