Description of the Related Art For example, a relatively large number of short columnar articles (hereinafter referred to as can bodies) such as cans and bottles which are mounted on a conveyor in a plurality of rows in a longitudinal direction and conveyed, respectively.
As a material supply control device (hereinafter, referred to as a product supply control device) of a box packing machine that sequentially sorts into a relatively small number of can bodies, there are conventionally a side view of FIG. 4A, a plan view of FIG. The one shown in the partial enlarged view of FIG. That is, in the figure, the article supply control device moves a large number of cans 01 placed in tandem in the forward direction 02.
Conveyor 03 which is conveyed to
2, a plurality of transport guides 04 in the form of horizontal parallel bars for aligning the large number of cans 01 into rows of a relatively large number of cans 01; To
And a finger plate insertion mechanism 05 for sequentially sorting into a relatively small number of cans 01 in a box. In the figure, a finger plate insertion mechanism 05 disposed below the conveyor 03 includes a pair of front and rear sprockets 06,07.
And an endless chain 08 wrapped around it, and a plurality of rectangular finger plates 09 projecting from the outer surface at equal intervals.
And a chain guide 010 that bends the upper outer surface of the endless chain 08 in a U-shape. In such a finger plate insertion mechanism 05, the conveyor 03 moves in the forward direction 02 at a moving speed v 1 and a moving speed v 2 lower than the moving speed v 1.
When the endless chain 08 moves in the forward direction 02 in FIG.
In (A), at the position of the sprocket 07, a finger plate 09 projecting slightly upward from the endless chain 08 slightly obliquely rearward by a height h is used for inserting the finger plate cut into the conveyor 03 as the endless chain 08 advances. It is gradually inserted into the hole 011 (FIG. 4C), and the chain guide 0 is inserted.
While the endless chain 08 moves forward to the 10-shaped bent portion, the finger plate 09 protrudes onto the conveyor 03 in a substantially vertical state, and the moving speed v 1 of the can 01 on the conveyor 03 is suppressed to the moving speed v 2. While moving forward to the position of the sprocket 06, a predetermined gap S is formed between the sprocket 06 and the preceding can body 01. After that, finger plate 09
Are released from the deterrence of the four series integrated can body 01,
While maintaining the gap S is conveyed by the moving speed v 1 in a machine for packing the downstream, not shown, where four can bodies 01 are packed together. However, such a finger plate insertion mechanism 05 has the following disadvantages when the can body 01 has an unstable shape with a small can diameter and a tall height. (1) Since the finger plate insertion hole 011 is restricted to a relatively small size and the height h of the finger plate 09 must be increased, as shown by a chain line in FIG.
In order to provide a finger plate 09a with a higher height ha and to reduce the refraction angle θ of the chain guide 010, θ
For example, a chain guide having a smaller angle of refraction θa is used, so that the required distance L for inserting the finger plate increases to the required distance La for inserting the finger plate. I do. (2) The position of the clearance of each can body 01 is shifted by the accumulation of the dimensional error of each can body 01 with respect to the position of the finger plate insertion hole 011, and each can body 01 is damaged by the finger plate 09. Or it is pushed up, so a bearing or the like is attached to the joint between the endless chain 08 and the finger plate 09,
The inclination of the finger plate 09 must be regulated by a cam track rail or the like, and as a result, the finger plate insertion mechanism is complicated, and the economical efficiency of the apparatus is reduced.
