Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (a) Field of Industrial Use The present invention relates to a peeling device for a laver making machine.

(B) Conventional technology Conventionally, a plurality of cages are supported on a cage frame, and a machine section provided with a papermaking section, a dehydration section, a delivery mechanism, and a peeling device, and drying to dry raw seaweed deposited on the cage. There is a seaweed making machine configured with a machine, and this seaweed making machine conveys the raw seaweed to the cage in the paper making section while transporting the cage frame in the above order in the machine section by the transport chain, Water is dehydrated from the raw seaweed deposited on the cage in the dehydration section by sponge compression, etc., and the cage frame supporting the cage with the dehydrated raw seaweed attached is handed over to the dryer by the transfer mechanism, and then the dryer. The cage frame that circulates inside and supports the cage on which the dried nori adheres is received again by the transfer mechanism by the transport chain, and the peeling device removes the dried nori from the cage supported by the cage and leaves it outside the machine. I try to carry it out.

Then, in such a peeling device, peeling of dried seaweed is performed in two steps of preliminary stripping and main stripping.

That is, by pressing the approximate center of the dried seaweed from the front and back to fix it, and applying tension to both sides of the cage frame to extend the cage, the end of the dried seaweed is peeled off from the cage. Then, as shown in FIG. 8, the end of the pre-stripped dry seaweed (n) is adsorbed by the adsorbing device (a), and the substantially central part of the dry seaweed (n) is retained in the cage (b). It is designed to be stripped from the main.

(C) Problems to be solved by the device However, as shown in FIG. 8, the end of the pre-stripped dried seaweed (n) becomes free between the preliminary stripping and the main stripping. Because of this, slack occurs in the pre-stripped part,
The slackened portion is sometimes sandwiched between the adsorption device (a) and the cage (b) to form a wrinkle (d), which lowers the commercial value.

Such wrinkles (d) are likely to occur when the dried nori (n) is soft, such as sprout nori at the beginning of the nori culture season, or when the nori is thinly extracted with high-quality raw algae. Tradeable products have to be traded at low prices due to wrinkles, which poses a significant risk to the farmer.

(D) Means for solving the problems In this invention, the intermittent transport chain is equipped with a cage through a cage frame, and the front end and the rear end of the seaweed that has been sheeted and dried on the cage are attached. At least the front end of the seaweed is peeled off and preliminarily peeled off, and then the preliminarily peeled seaweed is peeled off by the adsorption device and the main peeling mechanism in sequence. In addition, by pressing the holding arm of the stripping mechanism, the front end of the seaweed is pressed toward the suction device side, and after the slack of the seaweed is eliminated, the suction action of the suction device starts and the intermittent transport chain and the intermittent transport chain are connected. It is intended to provide a peeling device for a laver making machine, which strips off the whole laver when the next operation of the interlocking stripping mechanism starts.

(E) Action / Effect According to this invention, before the main stripping, when moving the pre-stripped end of the dried and dried seaweed on the cage in the stripping direction by the main stripping mechanism, the nori front end is moved. With the pressing operation of the presser arm supplied to the adsorption device side, the adsorption action starts after the slack of the seaweed is eliminated, so it is possible to reliably prevent wrinkles from forming on the seaweed, which is a commercial value. The decrease can be prevented.

Returns to the position before activation.

A main stripping mechanism (8) having a holding arm (46) is connected to the end of the preliminary stripping mechanism (7), and as shown in FIG. 7, at the front position above the transport chain (12), The base of the presser arm (46) having the roller presser shaft (44) and the presser roller (45) connected to the tip of the roller presser shaft is connected, and the roller presser shaft (44) rotates in the direction of the arrow so that the cage ( The front end of 9) is bent downward to move the front end of the pre-stripped seaweed (N) downward.

Further, below the press roller (45), a suction device (47) for sucking the front end of the seaweed (N) is arranged.

As shown in the figure, the adsorption device (47) is wound around the outer cylinder (48), the inner cylinder (49) rotatably fitted in the outer cylinder (48), and the outer circumference of the outer cylinder (48). Consists of a string-like conveyor (50), a slit (51) is formed on the peripheral surface of the inner cylinder (49) about 10 ° rearward from the uppermost part of the peripheral surface of the outer cylinder (48). A large number of through holes (52) are bored in the inner cylinder (49) so that the outer peripheral surface of the outer cylinder (48) and the inner cylinder (49) communicate with each other through the slit (51). By suction from the vacuum device (60) connected in communication, the front end of the seaweed (N), which is moved downward by the operation of the roller pressing shaft (44) and preliminarily peeled off, is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the outer cylinder (48). I have to.

Further, in FIG. 7, (61) is a blower which constitutes the vacuum device (60), and is connected to the inner cylinder (49) of the adsorption device (47) through the suction pipe (62). (63) is a damper installed in the middle of the suction pipe (62), and has an on-off valve (6
4) is arranged so that it can be opened and closed. (65) is a valve shaft and has a valve opening / closing lever (66) fixed to one side. (67) is a cam mechanism for opening and closing the damper (63), and is an L-shaped operating lever (68) and an intermediate lever (7) via a first rod (69).

0) and the valve opening / closing lever (66) are interlockingly connected to each other.

When the seaweed (N) whose front and rear ends have been preliminarily stripped is stripped by the main stripping mechanism (8), the seaweed (N) front end is pressed by the holding arm (46) toward the adsorption device (47). The cam mechanism (67) rotates to press the operating lever (68). As a result, the first rod (69) and the intermediate lever (7
0) and the second rod (72) are activated, and at the same time the valve opening / closing lever (66) and the opening / closing valve (64) are rotated, the opening / closing valve (64) opens the suction pipe (62), and the suction action is performed. To start. Therefore, the suction action of the suction device (47) is started after the slack of the seaweed (N) is eliminated along with the pressing operation of the pressing arm (46).

Further, the outer cylinder (48) is rotated in the advancing direction of the cage frame (10) in synchronization with the intermittent transfer chain (12), and the seaweed (N) preliminarily stripped by this rotation is held by the presser arm. (46)
By pressing, the front end of the seaweed is slanted forward and downward, and the seaweed (N) is completely separated from the cage (9) in cooperation with the progress of the intermittent transfer chain (12).

Therefore, the operation sequence of the intermittent transfer chain (12), the pressing arm (46), etc. is as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 7A.

Further, one side of the string-like conveyor (50) is wound around the outer circumference of the outer cylinder (48), and the stripped seaweed (N) is passed through the same string-like conveyor (50). It is dropped onto a belt conveyor (53) arranged below the 50) and carried out of the seaweed producing machine (A).

According to the above-mentioned example, prior to the stripping, the
When the pre-stripped end of dried seaweed is moved in the stripping direction by the main stripping mechanism, the suction action is performed after the slack of the seaweed is eliminated due to the pressing of the holding arm that supplies the front end of the seaweed to the adsorption device side. Since it is the start, it is possible to reliably prevent wrinkles from being generated in the seaweed, and to prevent a decrease in commercial value.
