なりの誤差を有するという問題がある。In addition, in the case of this kind of weighing device, the small diameter rods are supplied to the weighing hopper by the vibrating conveyor, but each thin diameter rod is always orthogonal to the conveying direction. Since they are not aligned and transported in the same way, and due to the curved shape of the small diameter rod itself, there is a gap between the small diameter rods,
The number of small diameter rods accommodated in the weighing hopper having a predetermined volume changes each time, and the measured value in the first step is not constant. As a result, the supply amount of the small-diameter rod body in the second step and the third step is very large and the correction range is large, and as a result, the correction cannot be performed completely, and the final product weight is reduced. The problem is that the value has a considerable error compared to the desired weight value.

There is a problem, and also in this respect, the error in the weight value of the final product is increased.

る。Means for Solving the Problems The weighing device according to the first aspect of the present invention takes out a large number of small-diameter rods such as noodles that are fed in a storage hopper in an array and forms a product having a desired weight value. In order to generate, a weighing space with a capacity capable of accommodating a number of thin rods that is slightly less than the desired weight value from the storage hopper side at the time of weighing, and the thin rods in this weighing space are weighed. a metering mechanism for, a metering device of the small-diameter rod which is provided a small number present at a time and supplies corrected supply mechanism small-diameter rod having a predetermined number by shortage on the basis of the measured value of the weighing machine structure, this The weighing device includes a transporting means extending in a substantially horizontal direction for transporting and filling the thin rod in the weighing space in a substantially horizontal direction by vibration, and a vibrating means for vibrating the transporting means. It is equipped with the same height level on one end side of the conveying means. The measuring space is formed in the bell , the conveying means is provided with an alignment mechanism of the small diameter rod body,
The alignment mechanism vibrates the conveying means in contact with the thin rod.
The longitudinal direction is the same as the alignment direction of the thin rods on the surface
It is characterized in that it is composed of aligned convex portions formed so as to face .

品の重量値のバラツキが非常に少なくなる。 However, in the weighing device according to the first aspect of the present invention configured as described above, since the small-diameter rod body is filled with vibration in the weighing space, the small-diameter rod body therein is somewhat a little initially. Even if they are accommodated in different directions, or even if the small-diameter rod body is curved, as a result, it will be densely accommodated in the weighing space due to vibration. For this reason, the weight value of the small diameter rod body housed in the weighing space is always a substantially constant value, and the correction range of the correction supply mechanism is narrowed. As a result, the correction supply mechanism is sufficiently corrected. Therefore, the variation in the final product weight value is extremely small .

バラツキを低減することができる。 [0015] These results, according to the weighing device, a cumbersome thin rod, it is possible to meter accurately. Moreover, if the weight value of one thin rod is previously input to the device, it can be accurately corrected by the correction supply mechanism, so only one measuring mechanism is required.
Weighing can be done only once, and the overall processing time can be shortened. The transport means consists of a vibration conveyor equipped with an alignment mechanism.
In the measuring device thus constructed, the small-diameter rods are conveyed in alignment in a desired direction (perpendicular to the conveying direction) by the alignment protrusions provided on the vibrating surface of the vibrating conveyor. Therefore, even when the small-diameter rods are conveyed in multiple stages, the upper-layer small-diameter rods are also conveyed in an aligned state. Therefore, if this mechanism is adopted as a device for supplying a small diameter rod to the weighing hopper or to the correction feeding mechanism, the thin diameter rod which is accurately aligned with the weighing hopper or the correction feeding mechanism. Will be supplied. As a result, the desired number of thin rods can be more accurately accommodated in the weighing hopper from the beginning, or the correction supply mechanism can more accurately feed the predetermined number of thin rods. Also, the corners of the inner surface of the weighing space are formed into curved surfaces.
In the weighing device, the thin rod is almost always in the weighing space.
Since it is packed in the space without any gap,
Variations can be reduced.

Since the alignment mechanism composed of the above-described alignment member 10 is disposed on the vibrating surface 2A of, the small-diameter rod body is conveyed while maintaining a state orthogonal to the conveying direction. It is carried into the weighing space 3 through the bottom of the open shutter 3B. Since the measuring space 3 is also vibrated by the vibrating section 2B of the vibrating conveyor 2, the small-diameter rods carried in as described above are packed without any gap. As shown in FIG. 1, the corners on the far side of the weighing space 3 are
So that the thin rods can always be packed without gaps,
Earl is taken. Therefore, in this measurement space 3,
A constant and desired amount of small-diameter rod body is packed. Next, when the weighing space 3 becomes full, the shutter 3B descends, the door member 3C of the weighing space 3 then opens, and the slanting and vibration of the bottom plate 3a causes the thin rods in the weighing space 3 to move downward. It falls into the weighing hopper 5.

る。The weighing mechanism 4 measures the weight of the thin rod in the weighing hopper 5 and transmits the data to the control device. In the control device, the measurement data and the weight value of the desired product are compared and calculated to calculate the difference, and an instruction is made to operate the electric motor of the correction supply mechanism 6 by this difference. For this reason, if the belt with crosspieces of the correction supply mechanism 6 is rotated by a predetermined pitch to give, for example, 0.5 g per pitch, a thin rod having a multiple of the pitch is added by the correction.

Since it is Rukoto suppress the initial value to a small variation,
The outer shape can be reduced to about 1/6 of that of the conventional one, and the price can be reduced to about 1/6 to 1/8.
