2. Description of the Related Art Naturally grown seaweed has been collected for a long time, but it has been around 1930 that seaweed has been artificially cultivated. Seaweed cultivation began with two methods: horizontal placement of palm nets and horizontal placement of floating cracks. Today, seaweed cultivation using net cracks has become widespread. The net material used for seaweed cultivation is made mainly of light and safe scientific fiber, but the standard size is about 1.2m in width and about 18m in length. It is used as a unit to represent facility quantities. Depending on the place where the net is installed, the net is installed in a relatively shallow place using a pillar type, in a deep place, a floating type, and in a place where the coast becomes steep, a floating raft type is used. In the old days, in the old days, natural seedling was used in which nets and the like were placed in a spore field where spores easily adhere, but the technique of artificial seeding was developed around 1949, and at present it is almost artificial seedling. Artificial seedling is a method of culturing the filamentous body and attaching single spores to be released in the early fall to the crack net, usually growing the filamentous body in shells etc. Free culture methods for growing the body have also been developed. Artificial seeding is carried out by two methods, field artificial seeding and indoor artificial seedling. In the case of the field, in the early autumn, 20 to 50 crack nets are piled up on the sea surface and floated on the sea surface. Attach the container containing the shells and allow to attach in 2-3 days. In the case of indoors, soak the net in the aquarium containing the seedlings,
Seawater is allowed to flow and adhere. Immediately after attachment, the spores have low resistance to drying out, so they are allowed to stand in seawater for one day before they are spilled into the fishing ground. Edible laver is harvested when the fronds have grown to some extent. The method of collecting seaweed is thinning, and when a well-extended leaf is harvested, the remaining buds grow immediately, so the same crack is harvested several times by the end of the fishing season. Hand-picking of laver is also performed by hand, but in recent years various types of laver-picking machines having rotational force have been used.

[0003] The nori original algae picked up in this way are washed with seawater by an original alga washing machine installed on the beach, and then brought into a work hut. In the work hut, the seaweed original algae is now thoroughly washed with fresh water, drained and put into a seaweed hybrid machine. The laver hybrid machine is used as a raw material for laver that is obtained by finely cutting laver raw algae, washing and dewatering, and then supplying it to the laver blender. In the laver blending machine, a fixed ratio of water is added to the laver raw material that is quantitatively sent out and blended. Then, the nori mixture is put into a concentration adjusting tank, stirred, and sent to the next papermaking process.
In the papermaking process, the concentration of the supplied nori is detected by a sensor, and the concentration is adjusted to an optimum concentration by controlling the water supply and drainage in the concentration adjusting tank based on the detected concentration is high or low. By supplying it to a fully automatic laver production machine, it can be used for
The stripping step is performed continuously. After that, the quality of the seaweed is sorted and bundled for each bundle, then packed in a box and shipped.

[0004] The seaweed production system mechanized in this way replaces the classical manual laver-making, and enables labor-saving of workers, hygienic production, and easy control of product quality, thereby achieving high quality. Although laver production is possible, in order to make full use of the laver production system, the laver mixture supplied to the laver blender must be supplied in a state where impurities and foreign substances are completely removed. Rather, it is certain that the purity of the nori mixture will affect the quality of the final nori product. Therefore, a technique for removing impurities and foreign substances from the laver mixture has already been proposed. According to this, at a certain interval in the length direction of the horizontally long water tank, a partition plate shorter than the height of the water tank is projected from the inner bottom of the water tank. Then, a laver mixture having a flow rate is flowed from one side of the water tank to the other side. Then, the laver mixture flows over the partition plate. At this time, impurities and foreign substances mixed in the seaweed mixture strike the partition plate and fall down to the bottom of the water tank, so that the seaweed mixture flowing through the water tank becomes a pure seaweed mixture liquid from which impurities and foreign substances have been removed, and the water tank It is said to be released from.

[0005]

However, since the above-mentioned prior art has a horizontally long water tank shape, a large space is required for its installation, and moreover, in order to obtain an effective foreign matter removing effect. It was necessary to connect several devices, and this was a major obstacle to making the entire device compact. Further, in the related art, since the laver mixture is circulated inside a vast water tank, the concentration of the laver mixture may be changed by a large amount of water, and the concentration of the laver mixture may be out of an allowable range. Furthermore, in the structure of the prior art, there was a problem that it was difficult to join with the laver concentration control device in the next step. Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and can be easily and compactly installed in a laver production system, and furthermore, to effectively remove impurities and foreign substances mixed in a laver mixture. It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus for removing foreign substances from a laver mixture that can be used.

[0006]

I have. In the laver mixture liquid foreign matter removing tank 2c, the upper end of the partition wall on the side of the laver mixture liquid pumping tank 2b is formed to be lower than the height of the entire tank. Flows from this portion into the laver mixture liquid feed tank 2b. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the foreign matter removing plate 5 and the turbulence suppressing plate 6 provided inside the laver mixture liquid foreign matter removing tank 2c are separated from the laver mixture liquid pressurizing tank 2b by a partition W1.
It is provided so as to alternately protrude from the inner wall portions on both sides of the partition wall W2 and the outside, and is disposed so as to meander the fluid of the laver mixture. The foreign matter removing plate 5 is provided with edges 5a standing on four sides at the outer end of the plate body. The foreign matter removing plate 5 reinforces the foreign matter removing plate 5 and the fluid of the seaweed mixed liquid is placed on the plate surrounded by the edge 5a. Impurities and foreign substances that have escaped from the surface accumulate. The turbulence suppression plate 6 also has reinforcing edge portions 6a suspended on four sides at the outer ends of the plate body, and further has a foreign matter removal plate 5 on the lower surface of the leading edge of the turbulence suppression plate 6. A long plate-like engaging piece 7 for fixing the turbulence suppression plate 6 is provided in a protruding manner, and is rotated left and right by a shaft member provided on the turbulence suppression plate 6.

Can be supplied to the laver preparation device. The inner wall of the laver mixture storage tank 2a is formed lower than the inner wall of the laver mixture foreign matter removal tank 2c. This is because the laver mixture supplied excessively from the laver mixture foreign matter removal tank 2c. This is because the nori mixed liquid is again bypassed into the nori mixed liquid storage tank 2a in order to prevent the liquid from overflowing from the tank.

Next, the operation and effect of this embodiment having the above configuration will be described. In general, the apparatus for removing foreign substances from the laver mixture of the present embodiment is incorporated in the laver manufacturing process of the laver machine system and is continuously operated. However, in this embodiment, the laver mixture is used for the sake of simplicity. Foreign matter removal processing 1
Only the cycle will be described. First, a pipe to which a mixed solution of the seaweed raw material is supplied from the seaweed washing machine or the seaweed hybrid machine is connected to the pipe fixing bracket 3 of the seaweed mixed solution storage tank 2a of the present embodiment, and the outlet EX of the drain pipe 9 is connected to the outlet EX. ,
A pipe connected to a laver blender (not shown) is connected. Then, after the laver mixture storage tank 2a is filled with the laver mixture, the supply valve V2 is opened and the transfer pump P1 is driven. Then, the nori mixed liquid supplied into the nori mixed liquid storage tank 2a is supplied from below into the nori mixed liquid foreign matter removal treatment tank 2c through the supply pipe 4 and the communication port 2e, and the hydraulic pressure of the transfer pump P1 is used. ,
The laver mixture is fed upward as a fluid inside the laver mixture foreign matter removing tank 2c. Since the foreign matter removing plate 5 and the plurality of turbulence suppressing plates 6 are provided, the fluid of the seaweed mixture removes the foreign matter while meandering along the foreign matter removing plate 5 and the turbulent suppressing plate 6 shown in FIG. The water flows from the lower layer to the upper layer of the processing tank 2c, and finally flows over the upper end portion of the partition wall W1 of the laver mixture liquid supply tank 2b and flows into the laver mixture liquid supply tank 2b.
At this time, the impurities and foreign substances mixed with the laver mixture liquid separate from the fluid while the laver mixture liquid rises as a meandering fluid, settle while floating in the tank, and deposit on the upper surface of the foreign substance removing plate 5. Due to this action, the nori mixed liquid flowing into the nori mixed liquid pressure feeding tank 2b becomes only a pure nori mixed liquid from which impurities and foreign substances have been removed. Therefore, if the supply valve V5 is opened and the supply pump P2 is driven, it is possible to supply a high-purity laver mixture from which foreign matter has been removed to, for example, a laver blender. In addition, when the foreign matter removing device for the seaweed mixed liquid of this embodiment ends the foreign matter removing operation and removes impurities and foreign matter deposited on the foreign matter removing plate, the waste liquid valve V3 of the supply pipe 4 is opened. Then, the seaweed mixture remaining in the seaweed mixture foreign matter removal tank 2c is entirely discharged to the outside of the tank. Next, the engagement piece 7 of the turbulence suppression plate 6 is detached from the fitting 8 of the foreign matter removal plate 5 to separate the turbulence suppression plate 6 and the foreign matter removal plate 5. The flow suppressing plate 6 is rotatable up and down around the shaft S. Therefore, when the foreign matter removing plate 5 is raised to the uppermost position and the turbulence suppression plate 6 is lowered to the lowermost position, FIG.
As shown in (2), a space is formed inside the nori mixed liquid foreign matter removing tank 2c, and impurities and foreign matter deposited on the upper surface of the foreign matter removing plate 5 fall to the bottom of the tank. Then, if water or a cleaning liquid is poured from the opening K of the tank and rinsed, impurities and foreign substances are all discharged to the outside of the tank together with the water and the cleaning liquid.

As described above, in the apparatus for removing foreign matter from a seaweed mixture according to the present embodiment, when a seaweed mixture containing impurities and foreign matter is put into the tank of the apparatus, the present apparatus is used to mix the seaweed with impurities and foreign matter. During the meandering rise of the liquid, impurities and foreign substances are spontaneously dropped and separated from the fluid of the laver mixture liquid. Due to this effect, the apparatus for removing foreign substances from the laver mixture of the present embodiment not only succeeded in dramatically improving the processing capability of removing foreign substances as compared with the same type of conventional apparatus, but also the capacity of the processing tank itself. Also succeeded in downsizing. In addition, this device has no adverse effect on the laver concentration of the laver mixture during the foreign matter removal processing of the laver mixture, and has good matching with other laver machines.
For example, a water level sensor or flow rate sensor is installed in the tank or pipe of this device, the signals from these sensors are read and processed by a microcomputer, and based on this information, valves and pumps are sequentially controlled through actuators. Or it is easy to shift to factory automation with feedback control. Therefore, the apparatus for removing foreign matter from the seaweed mixture of the present embodiment can be solved simultaneously with the conventional apparatus, such as improvement of the foreign matter removal processing capacity and miniaturization of the whole apparatus, which are the most important elements for this kind of apparatus. In addition to resolving conflicting technical problems that could not be achieved at once, this device is economical and capable of handling all variations such as manual drive, semi-automatic drive, fully automatic drive, etc. according to the installation environment. It is a periodical device.
