Description
本願発明は、取出機構、箱、移動機構及び搬送機構並びに取出方法及び搬送方法に関し、特に、箱に収容された収容物を取り出す取出機構等に関する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a take-out mechanism, a box, a moving mechanism, a transport mechanism, a take-out method, and a transport method, and more particularly to a take-out mechanism and the like for taking out objects contained in a box.
シート状製品を箱に収めてベルトコンベアの上まで移動させ、箱の底面のシャッターを開き、ベルトコンベアの搬送面にシート状製品を自然落下させて載置し、搬送させる技術がある(特許文献1参照)。ここで、シャッターは、図7(A)に示すように水平開閉するものもあれば、図7(B)に示すように蝶番でシャッター端面を回転軸とし、弧を描いて開閉するものもある(特許文献1図2及び図3参照)。なお、実際にはバネやストッパーなど、複雑な機構が採用されているが、本図では割愛して図示する。 There is a technique in which a sheet-shaped product is placed in a box, moved to the top of a belt conveyor, the shutter at the bottom of the box is opened, and the sheet-shaped product is naturally dropped on the conveying surface of the belt conveyor and conveyed (Patent document 1). Here, some shutters open and close horizontally as shown in FIG. 7A, and some shutters open and close in an arc with the edge surface of the shutter as a rotation axis with hinges as shown in FIG. 7B. (Refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 of Patent Document 1). Although a complicated mechanism such as a spring and a stopper is actually employed, it is omitted in this figure.
しかしながら、従来の箱を用いた技術では、底部のシャッターを動かすために内部に可動部分を設ける必要があるという問題があった。 However, the conventional box technology has the problem that it is necessary to provide an internal movable part to move the bottom shutter.
この可動部分があることは、部品どうしをスムーズに可動させるために必ず隙間が発生し、搬送中には、この隙間の範囲内でシャッター部品の振動が起こって大きな騒音を発生させてしまうという問題が生じてしまう。この問題は、作業者や安全衛生管理者を悩ませている。 The presence of this movable part inevitably creates a gap in order to allow the parts to move smoothly, and during transportation, the shutter part vibrates within this gap, causing a problem of loud noise. occurs. This problem plagues workers and health and safety managers.
また、箱に可動部分があるがゆえに、定期的にシャッターの動作に不具合が発生し、製造ラインをたびたび停止させるとともに、余分の箱の在庫を持つ必要の他、箱を修理に出す等が必要になり、運用コストの面でも問題があった。 In addition, because the box has moving parts, problems with the operation of the shutter occur periodically, and the production line is often stopped, and it is necessary to have extra boxes in stock and to send the boxes for repair. There was also a problem in terms of operating costs.
さらに、シャッターを開けるとともにシート状製品が重力により自然落下するため、落ち方が悪かったり、搬送面でバウンドしたりすると、せっかく位置も角度も揃ったまま搬送されたシート状製品が曲がってしまったり、複数枚集積の場合は、集積物が最終的に崩れてしまうという問題もあった。 Furthermore, when the shutter is opened, the sheet-like product naturally falls due to gravity. Also, in the case of stacking a plurality of sheets, there is also the problem that the stack eventually collapses.
ゆえに、本発明の目的は、シート状製品等の収容物を箱に収容し、箱から収容物を取り出す際に、シャッターのような開閉を行わずに可動部分を不要とした取出機構を提供する。また、本発明の目的は、シート状製品等の収容物を箱に収容し、箱から収容物を取り出す際に、収容物を自然落下させない取出機構を提供する。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a take-out mechanism that does not require opening and closing such as a shutter and does not require a movable part when storing items such as sheet-like products in a box and taking out the items from the box. .

図1を参照して、このシステムでは、まず、前工程より箱1に収容する収容物17が供給され、箱1への収容物17の投入により集積が行われ、箱搬送コンベア18により、収容物17を内部に収めた箱1が下流に向かって搬送される。収容物17は、例えば、シート状製品が一例である。取出機構13まで搬送されると、収容物17が箱1から取り出される。取出機構13は、支持部材15によって箱1の底部側から収容物17を支持し、その高さでの静止状態を維持しつつ箱1を下方に下げることにより、支持部材15を箱1の天面よりも相対的な位置関係を上にすることによって、収容物17の取り出しを行う(図3及び図4も参照)。下に降ろされた箱は、空箱循環搬送コンベア6によって上流に戻され、空箱持ち上げ機構8によって次の集積及び投入が行われる位置に戻る。支持部材15で支持された収容物17は、支持部材15が移動機構23によってベルトコンベア31の搬送面まで移動されて載置されて、下流工程に搬送される。移動機構23は、後述する水平移動機構25と上下移動機構27とを備える。ベルトコンベア31の搬送面への載置には、後述するように、ローラコンベア29の役割も重要になる。 Referring to FIG. 1, in this system, first, the contents 17 to be contained in the box 1 are supplied from the previous process, and the contents 17 are put into the box 1 to be accumulated. A box 1 containing an object 17 is conveyed downstream. An example of the container 17 is a sheet product. When conveyed to the take-out mechanism 13 , the contents 17 are taken out from the box 1 . The take-out mechanism 13 supports the contents 17 from the bottom side of the box 1 by means of the support members 15, and lowers the box 1 while maintaining a stationary state at that height, thereby lifting the support members 15 to the top of the box 1. The contained object 17 is taken out by making the relative positional relationship higher than the surface (see also FIGS. 3 and 4). The lowered boxes are returned upstream by the empty box circulating conveyor 6 and returned to the position where the next stacking and loading are performed by the empty box lifting mechanism 8 . The supporting member 15 is moved to the conveying surface of the belt conveyor 31 by the moving mechanism 23, and the contained object 17 supported by the supporting member 15 is placed thereon and conveyed to a downstream process. The moving mechanism 23 includes a horizontal moving mechanism 25 and a vertical moving mechanism 27, which will be described later. As will be described later, the role of the roller conveyor 29 is also important for placement on the conveying surface of the belt conveyor 31 .
図2(A)を参照して、箱1は、全体としては直方体形状であるが、天面3は開放され、収容物であるシート状製品を複数枚重ねて積層された状態で収容できる形としている。箱1の4つの側面5a,5b,5c,5dと底面7は板状であり、側面5dの天面3側から底面7に向かって箱1の内部まで貫通した3本の側面切り欠き9a,9b,9cが形成され、底面7には、それらの側面切り欠き9a,9b,9cが延長される状態で箱1の内部まで貫通した底面切り欠き11a,11b,11cが形成されている。すなわち、底面7には、底面切り欠き11a,11b,11cによって3本のスリットが形成され、側面5dには側面切り欠き9a,9b,9cによって3本のスリットが形成されている。これらのスリットは、ここでは複数本としたが、1本であってもよい。ここで、支持部材が1つの場合には支持可能な幅の大きさが必要になるが、複数の場合には複数箇所での接触による支持により平面的な支持が可能になるため、それぞれの幅は小さいものでも足りる。 Referring to FIG. 2(A), the box 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole, but the top surface 3 is open so that a plurality of sheet-shaped products can be accommodated in a stacked state. and The four side surfaces 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d and the bottom surface 7 of the box 1 are plate-shaped. 9b, 9c are formed, and the bottom surface 7 is formed with bottom notches 11a, 11b, 11c penetrating to the inside of the box 1 in a state in which the side notches 9a, 9b, 9c are extended. That is, three slits are formed in the bottom surface 7 by bottom surface notches 11a, 11b, and 11c, and three slits are formed in the side surface 5d by side surface notches 9a, 9b, and 9c. Although a plurality of these slits are used here, they may be one. Here, when there is one support member, a width that can be supported is required. A small one will suffice.
図3を参照して、取出機構13は、3本の櫛歯状の支持部材15a,15b,15cを備える。支持部材15a,15b,15cは、箱1の側面切り欠き9a,9b,9c及び底面切り欠き11a,11b,11cにそれぞれ対応し、支持部材15aは側面切り欠き9a及び底面切り欠き11aを通過でき、支持部材15bは側面切り欠き9b及び底面切り欠き11bを通過でき、支持部材15cは側面切り欠き9c及び底面切り欠き11cを通過できる。 Referring to FIG. 3, take-out mechanism 13 includes three comb-like support members 15a, 15b, and 15c. Support members 15a, 15b, 15c correspond to side cutouts 9a, 9b, 9c and bottom cutouts 11a, 11b, 11c of box 1, respectively, and support member 15a can pass through side cutouts 9a and bottom cutouts 11a. , the support member 15b can pass through the side notch 9b and the bottom notch 11b, and the support member 15c can pass through the side notch 9c and the bottom notch 11c.
ベルトコンベア18によって複数の箱1が、順次、支持部材15a,15b,15c側に搬送される。ベルトコンベア18を越えた状態で、ちょうど、支持部材15a,15b,15cが箱1の底面切り欠き11a,11b,11cに差し込まれ、収容物の一例である複数のシートが重ねられて積層されたシート状製品17の下部に配置される。これにより、シート状製品17は、それまでのベルトコンベア18による搬送状態と同様で底面7の内側によって基本的には下から支えられ箱1の側面5a,5b,5cで横ズレ等は抑止されつつ、支持部材15a,15b,15cによる支持も可能になる状況にある。厳密には、この段階では、支持部材15a,15b,15cとシート状製品17は接触していないが、後述する図3の状態において、接触して支持が行われる。 A plurality of boxes 1 are sequentially conveyed by the belt conveyor 18 toward the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c. The support members 15a, 15b, and 15c are just inserted into the bottom notches 11a, 11b, and 11c of the box 1 after passing the belt conveyor 18, and a plurality of sheets, which are examples of the contents, are piled up and stacked. It is placed under the sheet product 17 . As a result, the sheet product 17 is basically supported from below by the inner side of the bottom surface 7 and is prevented from shifting laterally by the side surfaces 5a, 5b, and 5c of the box 1 in the same manner as in the conveying state by the belt conveyor 18 until then. At the same time, the situation is such that support by the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c is also possible. Strictly speaking, the supporting members 15a, 15b, 15c and the sheet product 17 are not in contact with each other at this stage.
なお、図2(A)では、底面切り欠き11a,11b,11cは底面から内部まで貫通したものとしたが、図2(B)のように、内側に支持部材15a,15b,15cが差し込める溝でもよく、必ずしも貫通は必要ではない。 In FIG. 2(A), the bottom cutouts 11a, 11b, 11c penetrate from the bottom to the inside, but the support members 15a, 15b, 15c can be inserted inside as shown in FIG. A groove may be used, and penetration is not necessarily required.
図4を参照して、取出機構13は、箱1を降下させる機能を有する桟付コンベアベルト19a,19bを備える。桟付コンベアベルト19a,19bは変更手段を構成する一例であり、桟付コンベアベルト19aには外側に向いた桟21aが一定間隔で設けられ、桟付コンベアベルト19bには外側に向いた桟21bが21aに対応する位置であって一定間隔で設けられている。そのため、図4(A)に示すように図3のベルトコンベア18を越えた状態では向き合う桟21aと桟21bとによって箱1が支持される。また、桟付コンベアベルト19a,19bは、対向するベルト部分が一定時間に一定量を下向きに移動するように制御されている。そして、図4(B)のように、箱1は自重による自然落下ではなく天地方向の位置が制御されながら下降し、箱1の天面3は支持部材15a,15b,15cよりも下に位置することになる(図3(B)も参照)。このような動作が行われることにより、シート状製品17は、支持部材15a,15b,15cに支持されたまま、箱1から取り出される。なお、最下部に到達した箱1は、空き箱になって図1に示した空箱循環搬送コンベア6によって搬送され、その後、空箱持ち上げ機構8によって箱1は箱搬送コンベア18の高さに上昇し、シート状製品17が集積及び投入されて収容し、箱搬送コンベア18によって下流に搬送される。このようなループ処理が行わる。 Referring to FIG. 4, take-out mechanism 13 includes crosspiece conveyor belts 19a and 19b having a function of lowering box 1. As shown in FIG. The crosspiece conveyor belts 19a and 19b are an example of a changing means. The crosspiece conveyor belt 19a is provided with outward crosspieces 21a at regular intervals, and the crosspiece conveyor belt 19b is provided with outward crosspieces 21b at 21a. The corresponding positions are provided at regular intervals. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4(A), the box 1 is supported by the crosspieces 21a and 21b facing each other when the box 1 has passed the belt conveyor 18 of FIG. Further, the crosspiece conveyor belts 19a and 19b are controlled so that the opposing belt portions move downward by a constant amount in a constant time. Then, as shown in FIG. 4(B), the box 1 does not fall naturally due to its own weight, but descends while its vertical position is controlled, and the top surface 3 of the box 1 is positioned below the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c. (See also Fig. 3(B)). By performing such operations, the sheet product 17 is taken out from the box 1 while being supported by the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c. The box 1 reaching the bottom becomes an empty box and is conveyed by the empty box circulating conveyor 6 shown in FIG. As it rises, the sheet-like products 17 are accumulated, thrown in, accommodated, and conveyed downstream by the box conveyer 18 . Such loop processing is performed.
図5は、図4に示した支持部材がシート状製品を支持している状態から支持部材を水平移動及び天地方向である上下移動をさせる移動機構を説明するための図である。図5(A)は移動機構の水平移動機構を説明するための図であり、図5(B)は移動機構の上下移動機構を説明するための図である。図6は、図5に示した状態であって支持部材が水平移動機構によって搬送工程のライン上へと移動して上下移動機構によって下降した状態においてシート状製品をベルトコンベアによって搬送するためにローラコンベアに載せる状態を示す図である。図6(A)は図5(A)に対応し、図6(B)は図5(B)に対応し、図6(C)はシート状製品がベルトコンベアに載置された状況を示す。 5A and 5B are diagrams for explaining a moving mechanism for horizontally moving and vertically moving the support member from the state in which the support member shown in FIG. 4 is supporting the sheet product. FIG. 5A is a diagram for explaining a horizontal movement mechanism of the movement mechanism, and FIG. 5B is a diagram for explaining a vertical movement mechanism of the movement mechanism. FIG. 6 shows the state shown in FIG. 5, in which the support member is moved onto the conveying process line by the horizontal movement mechanism and lowered by the vertical movement mechanism. It is a figure which shows the state put on a conveyor. FIG. 6(A) corresponds to FIG. 5(A), FIG. 6(B) corresponds to FIG. 5(B), and FIG. .
図5を用いて、移動機構23は、支持部材15a,15b,15cによって取り出されたシート状製品17を次の工程へ移動させるために、支持部材15a,15b,15cを水平方向に移動させる水平移動機構25と、支持部材15a,15b,15cを上下方向に移動させる上下移動機構27とを備える。ここで、次の工程は例えば包装工程などであり、下流工程のために搬送ラインの動線上の位置に移動することが例として挙げられる。 5, the moving mechanism 23 horizontally moves the support members 15a, 15b, 15c in order to move the sheet product 17 taken out by the support members 15a, 15b, 15c to the next step. A moving mechanism 25 and a vertical moving mechanism 27 for moving the support members 15a, 15b, 15c in the vertical direction are provided. Here, the next process is, for example, a packaging process, and an example is moving to a position on the flow line of the transfer line for the downstream process.
水平移動機構25は、図5(A)(図6(A)も参照)に示すように支持部材15a,15b,15cを水平方向にスライドさせる機構であり、下流工程のために搬送ラインの動線上の位置には後述するローラコンベア29の位置の上方まで移動する(図5(B)参照)。水平機構25で用いる技術は、騒音を低減するという目的上、ピストンとシリンダーを衝突させることで移動を停止させる空圧シリンダー式よりも、電動シリンダーなどの騒音が少ない機器を使用する方法が好ましい。加えて、水平移動時にはシート状製品17は加速又は減速などの運動が与えられる。そのため、その慣性によって、シート状製品17が支持部材15a、15b、15c上のもとの位置から移動してしまう可能性がある。これを防止するため、支持部材15a、15b、15cとシート状製品17が接触している面に、細かい鋸状又は紙やすり状の凹凸を設け、摩擦係数を増大させて、ズレを防止することが好ましい。これらの観点からも、電動シリンダーを使用することにより、空圧シリンダー式を使用する場合に比べて加速と減速が緩やかに設定できるため、集積物の崩れや倒れを防止するという、騒音軽減とは別の効果も発生する。 The horizontal movement mechanism 25 is a mechanism for horizontally sliding the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c as shown in FIG. 5(A) (see also FIG. 6(A)). On the line, it moves above the position of the roller conveyor 29, which will be described later (see FIG. 5(B)). For the purpose of reducing noise, the technology used in the horizontal mechanism 25 is preferably a method of using equipment such as an electric cylinder that produces less noise than a pneumatic cylinder system that stops movement by colliding a piston and a cylinder. In addition, the sheet product 17 is given motion such as acceleration or deceleration during horizontal movement. Therefore, the inertia may cause the sheet product 17 to move from its original position on the support members 15a, 15b, 15c. In order to prevent this, the contact surfaces of the support members 15a, 15b, 15c and the sheet-like product 17 are provided with fine serrated or sandpaper-like unevenness to increase the coefficient of friction and prevent misalignment. is preferred. From these points of view as well, the use of an electric cylinder allows the acceleration and deceleration to be set more gently than in the case of using a pneumatic cylinder. Another effect also occurs.
上下移動機構27は、図5(B)(図6(B)も参照)に示すように支持部材15a,15b,15cを上下方向に昇降させる機構であり、図5(A)の状態から後工程搬送ライン動線上へ移動した支持部材15a,15b,15cは、下降に転じることになる。そして、支持部材15a,15b,15cがローラコンベア29を通過する。ここで、下降のスピードを1G以上の加速度とすると、シート状製品17が支持部材15a、15b、15cから浮いてしまい、その結果、運動力学的にはシート状製品17が自然落下することと変わらなくなってしまうので、抑制された速度で支持部材15a、15b、15cを下降させ、シート状製品17の下降時における姿勢を乱さないことが好ましい。 The vertical movement mechanism 27 is a mechanism for vertically moving the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c as shown in FIG. 5(B) (see also FIG. 6(B)). The support members 15a, 15b, and 15c that have moved onto the flow line of the process transfer line turn downward. Then, the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c pass through the roller conveyor 29. As shown in FIG. Here, if the descending speed is set to an acceleration of 1 G or more, the sheet-like product 17 will float off the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c. Therefore, it is preferable to lower the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c at a controlled speed so as not to disturb the posture of the sheet product 17 when it is lowered.
図6(特に図6(B))を参照して、支持部材15a,15b,15cがローラコンベア29の走行面を通過して下降すると、結果としてシート状製品17がローラコンベア29の搬送面上に取り残されて乗り移りが行われる。そして、ローラコンベア29とベルトコンベア31a,31bの動きにより、回転するローラコンベア29からベルトコンベア31bにシート状製品17が送られる。シート状製品17についてはベルトコンベア31bによってさらに下流工程への搬送が行われる。一方で、図6(C)に示すように、シート状製品17のベルトコンベア31bへの移動が行われると、支持部材15a,15b,15cはローラコンベア29を上昇して通過する。ここで、シート状製品17がローラコンベア29を通過してしまったことを、センサーなどの検知手段で確認すると、支持部材15a,15b,15cが上昇に転じるようにするとよい。上昇後は再び支持部材15a,15b,15cが図3の位置に復帰し、次のシート状製品17の取出へと戻り、次の箱が供給されて来るのを待つことになる。このとき支持部材15a,15b,15cは何らシート状製品17を載せていないので、上昇とその後の前進は、与えられうる最高速度で実行されることが、装置タクトタイム短縮の上で好ましい。 6 (especially FIG. 6(B)), when support members 15a, 15b, and 15c pass through the running surface of roller conveyor 29 and descend, as a result, sheet-like product 17 is placed on the conveying surface of roller conveyor 29. Transfers are carried out while being left behind. By the motion of the roller conveyor 29 and the belt conveyors 31a and 31b, the sheet product 17 is sent from the rotating roller conveyor 29 to the belt conveyor 31b. The sheet-like product 17 is further conveyed to the downstream process by the belt conveyor 31b. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6(C), when the sheet product 17 is moved to the belt conveyor 31b, the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c ascend the roller conveyor 29 and pass through. Here, when it is confirmed by detecting means such as a sensor that the sheet product 17 has passed the roller conveyor 29, the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c are preferably moved upward. After being lifted, the support members 15a, 15b, and 15c return to the positions shown in FIG. 3, and the next sheet product 17 is taken out, waiting for the next box to be supplied. Since no sheet product 17 is placed on the supporting members 15a, 15b, 15c at this time, it is preferable to perform the lifting and the subsequent advancing at the maximum possible speed in order to shorten the tact time of the apparatus.
なお、上記実施例では、箱から収容物の取出の際に、支持部材は静止したままであったが、動いてもよく、支持部材と箱との相対的な天地方向の位置関係が、支持部材が箱に収容された収容物の下側の状態から箱の天面よりも高い位置に移動するものであればよい。 In the above embodiment, the supporting member was kept stationary when the contents were taken out of the box, but it may be moved, and the relative positional relationship between the supporting member and the box in the vertical direction is determined by the support. It is sufficient that the member moves from the lower side of the contents housed in the box to a position higher than the top surface of the box.
以上のように、箱の可動部がなくなることにより、箱を仮に激しく動かしたり、移送の途中でコンベアなどの段差を乗り越えさせたりしたとしても、箱自身からの騒音を発することはなくなるため、稼働時の騒音を低減し、作業者にとって快適な就業環境が提供される。同様に、可動部が無くなることにより、箱の可動部分に発生する故障と、それによるライン停止のダウンタイムをなくすことができる。さらに、シート状製品を自然落下させないことから、後工程への安定した供給を可能とするなど、従来の技術より明らかに優れている技術が提供される。 As described above, by eliminating the moving parts of the box, even if the box were to be moved violently or overstepped on a conveyor during transfer, the box itself would not make any noise. It reduces noise and provides a comfortable working environment for workers. Similarly, the elimination of moving parts eliminates the downtime caused by failures in the moving parts of the box and the resulting line stoppage. Furthermore, since the sheet-shaped product does not fall naturally, it is possible to stably supply the product to the post-process.
