BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the processing apparatus of the embodiment, FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line BB of FIG.
4 is a plan view, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. The apparatus of this embodiment is a corpse storage container 1 (outer diameter of 300 m) made of ceramic.
m, height 455 mm, mouth diameter 150 mm, capacity 2 liters), disintegrate anti-corrosion liquid (formalin) into a liquid container 2 which is a drum, and remove minced bodies from minced containers 3 which are flammable pail cans. In addition, the corpse storage container 1 made of ceramic is crushed and then put into a crushed piece container 4 which is a drum.

The entire device is covered with a cover 5 to prevent bad smell. The cover 5 has an inlet 6 for the dead body storage container 1 and a conveyor 7 for loading and unloading the liquid storage container 2.
And a conveyor 8 for carrying in and out the mince container 3 and a conveyor 9 for carrying in and out the crushed piece container 4.

First, as shown in FIG. 3, a carcass storage container 1 in which a carcass of an animal is immersed in an antiseptic solution such as formalin.
Is placed upright on the container turntable 10 inside the cover 5 by opening the lid of the inlet 6. The handling of the carcass storage container 1 can be automated using a roller conveyor, an elevator, or the like. In this state, since the carcass storage container 1 is sealed, there is no problem in manual handling. Although not clearly shown in the drawing, the container turntable 10 is capable of lowering the dead body storage container 1 from an upright state to a horizontal state by a lower cylinder 11.
Then, the carcass storage container 1 that has been fallen horizontally is further rolled by hand on a support rod 12 located further behind. Thereafter, the lid of the inlet 6 is closed, and the subsequent operation is automatically performed. In this embodiment, the carcass storage container 1 is tilted horizontally in order to cut it in a horizontal posture, but it may be cut in a vertical posture.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, a chuck device 13 is provided above the support rod 12. This chuck device
13 is attached to a base 15 which can be moved in the left-right direction of FIG. And a pair of arms 16, 16. A horizontal shaft 1 is provided at the lower end of each arm 16, 16.
Chucks 18 and 19 are provided so as to be able to swing up and down around 7 and 17. Also these chucks 18,
The motor 19 has a structure capable of rotating around its central axis. In particular, a driving motor 20 is mounted on the chuck 19 on the bottom side. For this reason, chucks 18, 19
In the meantime, the carcass storage container 1 can be chucked and rotated in a horizontal posture. A resilient mechanism 21 such as an air spring is provided between the arms 16, 16.
It gently pops in the direction to separate 6,16.

As shown in FIG. 3, a cutting device 22 is provided beside the chuck device 13. This cutting equipment 22
Is provided so that a diamond grinding wheel 23 rotating at a speed of, for example, about 1300 rpm can advance and retreat on a rail 24. The center of a rotating body of ceramic carcass storage container 1 held between chucks 18 and 19 is provided. The outer peripheral surface of the part can be cut. In this case, 4/5 of the wall thickness of the dead body storage container 1
Cut to the extent and leave the rest. It should be noted that if the cooling of the diamond grinding wheel 23 is of a water-cooling type, it is difficult to treat the cooling water mixed with formalin, and the cooling water is mixed into formalin and the amount of treated water increases.

At the center of the base 15, a breaking device 25 is provided. This hammer device 25 is a hammer 26 with a sharp bottom.
Is lowered by the cylinder 27 and an impact is applied to the cut portion of the carcass storage container 1, whereby the carcass storage container 1 can be broken into two pieces from the center. The breaking by the hammer 26 is performed in order to prevent fragments of the corpse storage container 1 made of ceramic from being mixed into the contents as much as possible, and to prevent dirt of the cutting device 22 and scattering of the contents. is there.

FIGS. 6 and 7 show the movement of the chuck device 13 at this time. At the same time as the breaking by the breaking device 25, the arms 16 and 16 are opened outward by the resilient mechanism 21. Reference numeral 19 rotates around the horizontal shafts 17 and 17 so that the broken portion faces downward by the weight of the broken storage container 1. As a result, the content falls downward, and the broken carcass storage container 1 remains chucked by the chucks 18 and 19.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, a separating device 28 and a hopper 29 are provided below the separating device. The separating device 28 is a mesh belt conveyor, and among the contents falling from the broken carcass storage container 1, only the anti-rot solution is passed to the hopper 29 and the carcass of the animal is provided on the side thereof. Dropped by corpse hopper 30.

As shown in FIG. 3, a conveyor 7 for carrying in / out the liquid container 2 has entered below the hopper 29, and the liquid container 2 is on standby. For this reason, the anti-spoilage liquid flows from the hopper 29 into the liquid storage container 2 (drum). In this case, the hopper 29
A hood 32 that can be raised and lowered by a cylinder 31 is provided below the hood 32. Inside the hood 32, an air curtain nozzle 33 for flowing air in a horizontal direction is incorporated. In addition, a liquid level gauge 34 is incorporated in a lower portion of the hood 32,
The liquid level in the liquid container 2 is monitored. Note that a distance setting type optical switch 35 as shown in FIG. 8 may be used.

On the other hand, the carcasses of the animals dropped on the carcass hopper 30 are minced by a mincing apparatus 36 shown in FIGS. The mincing device 36 cuts the carcasses into small pieces by a pair of cutting impellers rotating in opposite directions. The minced carcasses are loaded and unloaded on a conveyor 8.
It is stored in the upper combustible mince container 3 (pail can).
This part is also provided with an air curtain type hood 37 to prevent bad smell. As shown in FIG. 9, the level in the mince container 3 is monitored by a distance setting type optical switch 38.

The cut dead body storage container 1 is transported leftward by the feed screw 14 as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 1 while being held by the chucks 18 and 19, and the inside of the cover 5 shown in FIG. Is dropped on the workbench 39. In this embodiment, a glove 40 is provided at this position, and a method in which an operator crushes the dead body storage container 1 with a hammer 41 is employed. However, automatic crushing by a crusher may be performed. The crushed corpse storage container 1 is stored and sealed in the crushed piece container 4 on the carry-in / carry-out conveyor 9. An air curtain type hood 42 similar to that described above is also provided at this portion. As shown in FIG. 10, a transparent window 43 is provided in a part of the hood 42, and the level of the debris in the debris container 4 is visually monitored. Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the debris level in the debris container 4 may be controlled by the light emitter 44 and the light receiver 45.

All of the above steps are performed inside the cover 5 provided with a deodorizing device. Gloves are provided at the portions of the carry-in / carry-out conveyor 7 of the liquid storage container 2, the carry-in / carry-out conveyor 8 of the mince container 3, and the carry-in / carry-out conveyor 9 of the crushed piece container 4, respectively. The inside of the container 5 can be covered with a lid and sealed. Further, an opening / closing door is provided at a portion where each conveyor crosses the cover 5. For this reason, during the processing of the carcass storage container 1 as described above,
There is no danger of the odor leaking out.

[0018]

As is apparent from the above description of the embodiments, according to the present invention, a carcass storage container storing a carcass of an animal immersed in a decay-preventing liquid is mechanically and emits an odor. It can be dismantled without hygiene and the contents can be separated into carcasses and anti-spoilage liquid, and can be stored separately in each container. For this reason, it becomes easy to perform processing such as incineration in the post-processing step.
