DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for pre-casting incense sticks on a tray tray in the process of manufacturing incense sticks.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the process of producing incense sticks in the vertical direction on a tray tray, a tray tray consisting of a rectangular plate is erected vertically, and a cylinder nozzle of an extrusion molding machine is placed on the surface of the tray tray. It refers to the process of extruding a group of incense sticks. The pre-receiving means a step of receiving the raw incense sticks on the surface of the tray tray and then trimming both ends of the raw incense sticks.

[0003] The tray tray may be the drying tray itself, or the raw incense group received by the tray tray may be transferred to the drying tray in the next step by separating the tray tray from the drying tray. is there. After the trays on which the incense sticks are placed are stacked on a cart, they are charged into a drying room, dried, cut to a fixed size and packaged to produce products.

[0004] As this conventional example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2-32258 is disclosed.
And Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-47521 have been proposed.

[0005] The former is swingably supported on a horizontal main rotating shaft, and has a required space between a receiving surface of a tray receiving plate vertically arranged in a vertically suspended state with respect to the main rotating shaft. In the state, the raw incense group is extruded from the cylinder nozzle of the screw type extruder in the shape of a noren, and then the extruding operation is temporarily stopped, and then the tray tray is swung about the main rotation axis by an angle of 2 to 5 degrees. Place the incense sticks on the tray receiving plate and then temporarily stop the rocking tray around the main rotation axis while swinging around the main rotation axis. After cutting both ends of the raw incense sticks against the corners of both ends of the receiving plate, the tray receiving plate is moved to a horizontal position.

In the latter, a paper corrugated cardboard plate is placed on a tray tray in the longitudinal direction, which is taken out by a pedestal with a suction cup, and receives a group of incense sticks extruded from a hydraulic press type extruder sideways. After that, send it on a conveyor, cut both ends of raw incense sticks by rubbing the piano wire along the corners of both ends of the tray tray, cut it to a fixed size with a cutting device, and then supply it to the drying oven It is a system that did.

[0007]

The former conventional example described above is:
Using a screw-type extruder as an extruder, proposed to solve the problem that when the raw incense sticks that are extruded in the shape of a goodwill are placed on a tray tray and slid, they are disturbed by the effect of friction. Until the extrusion of raw incense sticks in an amount sufficient to be placed on the tray tray is completed, a gap is opened between the pushed raw incense sticks and the tray receiving surface of the tray. In order to avoid the friction of the tray receiving plate surface, the raw incense sticks are drooped, and after the extrusion is completed, the operation of the screw type extruder is temporarily stopped, and then the tray receiving plate is moved through the above gap to produce the raw material. The process of receiving the incense sticks on the tray tray is going through.

[0008] However, although a small gap is provided between the raw incense sticks and the tray tray, the tip of the raw incense group is about 1 m in the vertical tray tray. Until it reaches the lower part of the tray, it is hanging in an unstable manner, and it is difficult to keep it aligned before placing it on the tray tray. Moreover, before the extruded raw incense sticks are received by the tray, they may not be able to withstand the weight of the raw incense themselves and may be cut off, or the tray may be moved to perform pre-receiving processing. During this time, the screw type extrusion molding machine is stopped, so the viscosity of the raw incense in the cylinder changes during that time, and when extruding, the cylinder nozzle gets clogged, causing poor extrusion, and the extrusion speed for each nozzle hole However, there is a problem that the raw incense sticks are disturbed and overlap with each other, or the middle part is cut off.

Also, in the method of cutting both ends of the raw incense sticks on the tray, the cutters are pressed against the corners at both ends of the tray to cut the raw incense. It was not possible to solve the problem that the incense sticks to the corners at both ends and shrinks during drying when the incense shrinks.

The latter embodiment employs a hydraulic press type extruder, but receives a group of incense sticks in a state where the rectangular tray is placed not in the vertical direction but in the horizontal direction.
The time required to extrude and mold one tray tray plate is shorter than for vertical extrusion, but the cylinder nozzle must be prepared for the length of the tray tray plate in the longitudinal direction. It was expensive. Also, since the edge of the tray is scraped off with a piano wire, both ends of the raw incense sticks adhere to the edge of the tray, and when the incense shrinks during drying, There was a problem of being cut off on the way. There was a problem that the device became complicated.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and the raw incense sticks are placed on a tray tray in a state where they are aligned without being disturbed. A pre-receiving method in vertical extrusion molding to a tray tray, in which the ends of the raw incense sticks are cut so that they do not adhere to the tray tray plate so that the middle part does not break even when shrinking during drying And an apparatus thereof.

[0012]

According to the present invention, there is provided a method for vertically supporting a stick incense on a tray tray according to the present invention. The method includes a step of slightly increasing the amount of raw incense sticks to be placed on one tray tray. Is supplied into the cylinder of the hydraulic press-type extrusion molding machine, and the raw incense is extruded from the cylinder nozzle once by a single operation to extrude the entire amount of one ball into a curtain. After placing on the alignment receiving plate, place the alignment receiving plate on the surface near the upper end of the tray receiving plate placed in an inclined state and slide it. The tray is placed near the upper end of the tray tray and slid to a position where it can be slid.When the extrusion is completed, the tray tray is moved to the horizontal position, and the incense sticks that protrude on both sides of the tray tray are removed. Disconnect.

[0013] The advance receiving device in the vertical molding of the incense stick into the tray receiving plate is a raw incense in which the amount of eyes slightly larger than the amount corresponding to the raw incense group placed on one tray receiving plate is one ball. A cylinder for storing one ball of raw incense, a hydraulic piston that moves up and down in the cylinder, and a single push-out operation of this hydraulic piston makes all of the ball A hydraulic press type extruder consisting of a cylinder nozzle extruding in the shape of a cylinder, an alignment receiving plate slidable back and forth below this cylinder nozzle, and a tray receiving the tray tray inclined below this A receiving plate mounting portion, in which the incense stick group extruded from the cylinder nozzle in the shape of a goodwill is placed on the aligned receiving plate and received by the tray receiving plate, in the vicinity of the upper end of the tray receiving plate until the required time elapses Slide it on the surface of After the required time has elapsed, the alignment plate is placed at a position closer to the upper end of the tray plate than the above-mentioned surface, and the alignment plate is slid back and forth so as to be retracted to a position where it can be slid. Moving means, and a tray receiving device for gripping and moving the tray tray to a horizontal position when the extrusion is completed, and cutting for cutting the incense sticks protruding on both sides of the tray tray at this horizontal position. Equipment.

Further, the cutting device includes a receiving blade plate for receiving one side of the raw incense sticks at positions outside both ends of the tray receiving plate, and pressing the blade against the receiving blade plate along both ends of the tray receiving plate. It consists of a cutting blade that cuts the incense sticks.

[0016]

The operation of the above means will be described. The raw material supply device supplies a quantity of one ball of raw incense placed on one tray tray into the cylinder of the hydraulic press type extruder. Next, the piston of the hydraulic press type extruder is extruded and the incense sticks are extruded from the cylinder nozzle in a noren pattern. After the tip portion is once placed on the alignment receiving plate, it slides down on its surface to reach the tray receiving plate which is arranged inclined below. At this time, the alignment receiving plate is located on the front side so that the front end portion of the raw incense sticks is placed slightly lower than the upper end portion of the tray receiving plate. When the time required for the tips of the raw incense sticks to rest on the surface of the tray tray and stably fall has passed, the aligned trays are retracted to the rear. Even at this time, the raw incense sticks are still slightly laid on the alignment receiving plate and sliding down on the tray receiving plate surface.

By the time the tip of the group of incense sticks is pushed out beyond the lower end of the tray tray, there is no remaining incense stick in the cylinder. Next, the piston of the hydraulic press type extruder turns from descending to ascending, and waits again for the supply of the next one ball incense from the raw material feeder.

When the extruding of the incense sticks on the tray tray is completed, the tray tray is moved to a horizontal position by the tray receiver. Then, the blade receiving plate, which was on standby outside both ends of the tray tray at the horizontal position, hits the upper surface of the raw incense stick group, and then the cutting blade runs from the side on the blade receiving plate surface and the raw incense stick group Cut both ends of the. When the cutting is completed, the tray trays are stacked on a trolley with the group of incense sticks placed thereon and sent to the drying room.

While the tray receiving plate is being moved to the horizontal position by the tray receiving device, the next tray receiving plate is supplied, and the above series of steps is repeated.

[0028]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

Instead of directly receiving the raw incense sticks extruded from the hydraulic press type extrusion molding machine on the tray tray, the raw incense sticks are first placed on an alignment tray to correct the disturbance of the raw incense sticks, and then placed on the tray tray surface. The raw incense sticks extruded on the curtain are slid off the tray surface without being disturbed, and can be aligned and placed on the tray surface.

Further, since the group of incense sticks is extruded while being placed on the surfaces of the alignment tray and the tray tray, there is no problem that the raw incense sticks are cut by their own weight.

Also, the quantity of the raw incense sticks placed on one tray tray is supplied as a single ball to a hydraulic press type extruder, and the entire amount of this single ball is extruded into a curtain by a single extrusion operation. Since the extruding is performed, the extruding pressure is much lower than in the conventional case where a large amount of raw incense corresponding to a plurality of tray trays is supplied at a time and the extruding operation is sequentially performed. As a result, the size of the hydraulic press type extruder can be reduced, so that equipment costs can be reduced. Also, power consumption is low, and running costs are low.

In the batch molding method using one raw incense raw material as one ball, the next one ball is extruded in a hydraulic press type within a post-processing time in which a tray tray is moved by a tray tray. Since it can be put into the machine and extruded, it has the effect of performing continuous molding.

Further, since a simple operation of charging one ball into the raw material supply device is sufficient, the operation can be performed by one person. For this reason, even if the present apparatus is installed in a double manner, one person can sufficiently operate the apparatus and labor can be saved.

In addition, since one ball of raw incense in a quantity corresponding to one tray tray is extruded at a time, no raw material for raw incense remains in the cylinder of the hydraulic press type extruder.
As in the conventional case, the viscosity of the raw incense has changed in the cylinder, and the trouble of cutting during the extrusion and clogging the hole of the cylinder nozzle has been eliminated.

When cutting the incense sticks protruding from both ends of the tray tray, the incense sticks are received at the outer positions of both ends of the tray tray by a blade plate, and pressed by a cutting blade. As the incense shrinks during drying, the incense does not break even when the incense shrinks during drying.
