2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 6 shows a deodorizing tower facility. The conventional deodorizing tower 51 has a plurality of deodorant containers 52 accommodated therein. An opening / closing lid 53 is provided on the ceiling of the deodorizing tower 51 to carry in and carry out the deodorant container. An air supply pipe 55 for sending the gas to be deodorized by the blower 54 is connected to the lower part of the deodorization tower 51, and an exhaust pipe 56 for taking out the deodorized gas is connected to the upper part. Reference numeral 59 is a bypass pipe.

In the space where the deodorizing tower 51 is installed, a rail 58 for a chain block 57 is extended so as to pass right above the deodorizing tower 51. The used deodorant container is lifted up by the chain block 57, carried out, and replaced with a new deodorant container.

[0004]

In the deodorizing tower equipment shown in FIG. 6, a chain block rail must be extended to the ceiling of the deodorizing equipment room for only one deodorizing tower 51. In addition, a space is required to suspend the deodorant container above the deodorization tower. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the facility cost and adjust the arrangement with other pipes.

As the number of such small deodorizing towers, and the installation of only one small deodorizing tower, has increased in recent years, there is a demand for a deodorizing tower facility that is more convenient for container transportation and has a lower equipment cost. Therefore, it is conceivable to attach a crane or a chain block that carries in and out the deodorant container to the deodorization tower itself. However, from the inside of the deodorization tower to the outside of the deodorant container,
Alternatively, since it is a crane or the like for moving from the outside to the inside, it will penetrate the inside and outside of the deodorization tower. This is not preferable because the deodorization tower is filled with the gas to be treated. Further, it is not preferable that the entire deodorization tower becomes large.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and is suitable for a deodorizing tower with a built-in conveying device, which enables the deodorant container to be carried in and out without penetrating the deodorizing tower, and the deodorizing tower. It is an object of the present invention to provide a simple transport device.

Further, the lifting means advances outward from the carry-in / out entrance along the second rail. Therefore, the deodorant container in the tower body can be carried out or carried in the tower body. Due to the arrangement of the carrier device, the tower body does not become extremely large, and the tower body is not penetrated.

[0014]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, a deodorizing tower and a carrying device of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing an embodiment of the deodorizing tower of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a partially sectional front view of the deodorizing tower of FIG. The tower body 1 of this deodorization tower has a rectangular parallelepiped shape. A carry-in / out port 2a is formed on one of the four side surfaces, and a door 2 for opening / closing the carry-in / out port 2a is provided. Inside the tower body 1, a plurality of deodorant containers 3 filled with different types of deodorant are vertically stacked. The deodorant container 3 at the bottom is the tower body 1
The deodorant container 3 is placed on a bar-shaped shelf 4 fixed to each of the side peripheral surfaces in the lower part of the interior, and another deodorant container 3 is directly placed on the deodorant container 3. The upper and lower surfaces of the deodorant container 3 are composed of a net, and the gas to be treated can pass through the deodorant container 3.

A transfer device 5 for transferring the deodorant container is disposed on the ceiling inside the tower body 1. This transfer device 5 fits within the vertical and horizontal dimensions of a conventional deodorization tower. Therefore, the tower body 1 does not become large even if the carrier device 5 is provided. Door 2
It does not project outside when closed.

FIG. 3 shows the details of the carrier device 5.
As shown in FIG. 3A, the transfer device 5 has a first rail 6 mounted on the ceiling and a second rail 7 located below the first rail 6. The second rail 7 has a roller 8 for supporting a reaction force on the upper surface of the rear end when the end on the door side is the front end, and an engaging member 9 on the upper surface in the vicinity of the rear end. It has an idle pulley 10. The idle pulley 10 may be like a toothed sprocket wheel, or it may be like a toothless pulley.

A first geared trolley (hereinafter referred to as a first trolley) 11, which is a first moving suspension means, is rotatably engaged with the first rail 6. The engaging member 9 of the second rail 7 is connected to the first trolley 11. Therefore, the second rail 7 is suspended from the first rail 6 via the first trolley 11. Since the first trolley 11 that suspends the second rail 7 is near the rear end of the second rail 7, the reaction force support roller 8 contacts the first rail 6 and receives a moment.

A second geared trolley (hereinafter referred to as a second trolley) 12 which is a second moving suspension means is rotatably engaged with the second rail 7. A chain block 13 as a lifting means is attached to the second trolley 12. The center of a rectangular frame 14 is engaged with the hook 13a of the chain block 13. At four corners of the frame 14, hooks 14a that can engage with the vicinity of the four corners of the deodorant container 3 are provided. This frame 14 is for suspending the deodorant container 3 in a stable state.

The details of the first trolley 11 are shown in FIG. Loop-shaped first operation chain 1 of the first trolley 11
The first gear wheel 16 of the first trolley 11 is rotated by pulling 5. A gear 17a is formed on the shaft 17 of the first gear wheel 16, and the gear 17a meshes with the teeth 18a of the engagement wheel 18. The engagement wheel 18 engages with the first rail 6 and rolls along the first rail 6. Therefore, the engagement wheel 18 rotates due to the rotation of the first gear wheel 16, and the first trolley 11 rolls along the first rail 6. The moving suspension means is not limited to the illustrated shape structure. In short, it is sufficient that the engagement wheel 18 can be rotationally driven remotely by the operation chain or the like.

FIG. 5 shows details of the second trolley 12. The drive mechanism is the same as that of the first trolley 11.
By pulling the loop-shaped second operation chain 21 of the second trolley 12, the second gear wheel 22 of the second trolley 12 is pulled.
To rotate. A gear 23a is formed on the shaft 23 of the second gear wheel 22, and the gear 23a is engaged with the engagement ring 24.
Meshes with the tooth 24a. The engaging wheel 24 is the second rail 7.
And is adapted to roll along the second rail 7. Therefore, the engagement wheel 24 rotates due to the rotation of the second gear wheel 22, and the second trolley 12 rolls along the second rail 7.

The chain block 13 arranged on the second trolley 12 is moved up and down by pulling the third operation chain 26 wound around the third gear wheel 25. The lifting chain 27 of the chain block 13 is wound around a pulley 28 and an idle pulley 29 that are coaxial with the third gear wheel 25, and is housed in a chain bucket 30.

As shown in FIG. 3B, at the tip of the second rail 7, a bracket 19 is provided on the side of the second rail 7 about 1 in the horizontal plane.
It is pivoted so that it can swing by 80 °. The idle pulley 10 is attached to the tip of the bracket 19. As a result, the idle pulley 10 is swung between the outer operation position (solid line) and the inner storage position (two-dot chain line). Of course, it may be configured to be capable of swinging in the vertical direction if the vertical space allows. Second rail 7
Since the idle pulley 10 is arranged along the side portion of the second rail 7 when the idle pulley 10 is housed in the tower body 1, the effective length of the second rail 7 can be long regardless of the existence of the idle pulley 10. Conversely, since the second rail 7 can be housed in the tower body 1 while being housed in the inner housing position, it is not necessary to enlarge the tower body 1. The idle pulley 10 is not limited to swinging, and may be configured to be movable between an operating position and a storage position by a known mechanism.

Two idle pulleys 10 are arranged in parallel. Different parts of the operating chain 15 of the first trolley 11 are engaged with the respective idle pulleys 10 in the operating position as shown. Then, when the door 2 is opened and the operation chain 15 is pulled in one direction, the first trolley 11 moves the second rail 7 toward the outside. When the operation chain 15 is pulled in the other direction, the second rail 7 is moved in the direction in which it is housed in the tower body 1. It is also possible to dispose a single idle pulley 10 and hang the operation chain 15 on the idle pulley 10 each time the pulling direction of the operation chain 15 is changed.

When the second operation chain 21 of the second trolley 12 is pulled in one direction, the second trolley 12 moves together with the chain block 13 toward the outside along the second rail 7. When the second operation chain 21 is pulled in the other direction, the second trolley 12 and the chain block 13 move in the direction to be stored in the tower body 1. A stopper 7a for the second trolley 12 is arranged rearward from the center of the second rail 7, and is located inside the position where the second trolley 12 lifts the deodorant container 3 (almost the center of the second rail 7). It is convenient not to be able to move towards. By doing this, the second rail 7
The second trolley 12 comes out almost outside the tower body 1 only by moving the outside. Then, the operation of the second operation chain 21 of the second trolley 12 becomes easy,
It is easy to operate the third operation chain 26 of the chain block 13.

In the deodorizing tower constructed as described above,
For example, when replacing the deodorant container 3, first, a new deodorant container is carried in front of the door 2 of the deodorizing tower by a forklift or a cart. Then, the door 2 is opened, the hook 14a of the frame is engaged with the uppermost deodorant container 3, and the deodorant container 3 is lifted. Then, after swinging the idle pulley 10 outward, the first operation chain 15 of the first trolley 11 is engaged. The first operation chain 15 is pulled to pull the second rail 7 out of the tower body 1. The second operation chain 21 of the second trolley 12 that has come out together with the second rail 7 is pulled to carry the deodorant container 3 outward along the second rail 7. Then, the chain block 13 is lowered and the deodorant container 3 is placed on the floor or a cart. By repeating this operation, the deodorant container 3 is carried out. Then, the deodorant container filled with the new deodorant is lifted by the chain block 13, and the reverse operation to the above operation is repeated. As a result, the deodorant container filled with the new deodorant is loaded in the tower body 1.

Since most of the operations are to pull the operation chain, no great force is required.

Although the embodiment of the transfer apparatus described above is applied to the deodorization tower, the present invention is not limited to the deodorization tower and can be applied to various objects to be transferred. Especially, it is useful when it is housed in a small room such as the main body of the deodorizing tower.

[0029]

According to the present invention, the second rail housed in the tower body of the deodorizing tower extends outward from the carry-in / out port along the first rail. Further, the lifting means advances outward from the carry-in / out entrance along the second rail. Therefore, the deodorant container in the tower body can be carried out or carried in the tower body. The deodorant container can be carried in and out without requiring complicated work and a great deal of force.
