Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention stores the containers while properly moving and aligning them in the apparatus from when a plurality of containers containing fragile items such as strawberries are placed by the worker until they are taken out from the worker in the next process. The present invention relates to a container for loading easily damaged goods.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the case of one or several workers in the manual packing (packing) process when shipping agricultural products, in order to increase work efficiency in work consisting of multiple processes with different labor, an intermediate state after passing through a predetermined process A method of securing the number of products to some extent and then executing the next process has been generally performed. For example, in the intermediate process when packing strawberry etc. into a packed container and shipping, the process of filling the strawberry into the packed container by hand and the process of covering and sealing the container are different in work speed. After securing a predetermined number of containers waiting for the next process after completion, a response is made that a predetermined worker starts a process of covering the container, and the work efficiency is improved by reducing the waiting time of the worker between each process. It was realized.
[0003]
At this time, a large number of waiting containers for the next process are placed in a place where the worker does not disturb the work, and are left as they are until they are taken out by the worker in the next process. However, if the items contained in the container are fragile items such as strawberries, it is not possible to stack containers that may be damaged by the fragile items in the container. It was. Especially in small-scale workshops such as farmhouses, these containers for easily damaged items were often placed on the floor, causing the problem that the placed containers would occupy a large space in the workplace and hinder other work. It was.
[0004]
By the way, in the field of industrial product manufacturing, when a container containing a predetermined article is moved between a plurality of processes related to a predetermined process, due to a difference in work speed between each process and an intermittent conveyance / supply system, It is relatively common for a large number of containers to be waiting for the next process, so that these many containers are not obstructed at the work site, such as a shelf that stocks containers properly until they are taken out for the next process. A loading apparatus has been generally used.
[0005]
In such a loading device, a load such as an article container is smoothly received from the previous process, and these are properly protected, and in order to facilitate removal in the next process, once the load is placed on the device, Move the load quickly in the equipment and place it at the take-out position, or arrange multiple loads in a row starting from the take-out position and store them in a row, and take out the load sequentially from the pick-up position of the loading device There are many. An example of a conventional loading apparatus capable of temporarily stocking an article container between such work processes is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-186936, which is shown in FIG. FIG. 6 is a schematic perspective view of a conventional loading apparatus.
[0006]
The conventional loading apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 6 is a so-called fluidized shelf, and the left and right side frames 81 and 82 having the same structure and a plurality of upper and lower same structures constructed between the left and right side frames 81 and 82 are the same. It is the structure provided with no load platforms 91-93. The loading platforms 91 to 93 of each stage are formed by arranging roller rails 95 and 96 that are slidably supported in pairs in the left and right lateral directions inside the rectangular frame 94, It is constructed so as to incline forward and downward between the left and right side frames 81 and 82. A stopper 97 for receiving the load is disposed at the front end (inclined lower end) of each roller rail 95, 96, and the front ends of the loading platforms 92, 93 are respectively arranged so that the load at the front end received by the stopper 97 can be easily taken out. It is comprised so that it may be located back rather than the front end of the loading platforms 91 and 92 of the lower stage side.
[0007]
In this conventional loading apparatus, first, when an operator places a load (not shown) such as an article container on the roller rails 95, 96, the load moves on the roller rails 95, 96 to the front end side. Then, it stops at the stopper 97 and remains in the stock state until it is taken out by the operator. When a new load is placed on the rear end side before taking out, it is stocked in a row in the rear starting from the load contacting the stopper 97, and when the foremost load is taken out, the next load is newly put in the forefront. It is a mechanism to move.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Since the conventional loading apparatus is configured as described above, it is necessary to allow a container with articles as a load to overcome the rolling resistance of the roller rails 95, 96, etc., and smoothly advance to the front end takeout side. Inclination is required, but once it starts moving, it will stop at the front end stopper 97 or the rear part of the previously loaded container with a certain speed, so that impact force is applied to the container and the items inside it. Thus, there is a problem that the product in the container cannot be used when it is an easily damaged item such as a strawberry.
[0009]
In addition, as another conventional loading device, there is a horizontal state in which the loaded container is not inclined and the loaded container is not self-propelled. To move the container to the take-out position side, push the container from the rear end side, push the container that was put in first from the rear and advance one container at a time, and finally remove the leading edge of the container in a row It is necessary to reach the position, and a pressing force is applied before and after the container.
[0010]
Here, if the article is an easily damaged strawberry and the container is a strawberry pack, the strawberry is not limited to impact and very weak against pressing, Since it is a soft and easily deformable structure and handling of strawberry is necessary in situations where strawberry is contained in this container, it is not possible to use the above-mentioned product device that applies pressing force to the front and rear surfaces of the container during use. I had a problem that I couldn't.
[0011]
Further, in the case of an apparatus for transferring a load from the rear end side to the front end side by applying a driving force by the driving means, a stopped state of the container staying near the take-out position and a transfer state of the container from the rear end side to the front end take-out side In order to achieve a consistent balance, an intermittent transfer mechanism for each container has been used. However, compared to the simple inclined type, a large drive is required to move smoothly while supporting the weight of the entire container. Power is required, and the structure of the entire apparatus is inevitably complicated, and the cost is high, and it has a problem that it is difficult to introduce to small-scale businesses such as strawberry-producing farmers. In addition, because of the intermittent transfer mechanism, an impact is applied to the container at the start and end of movement in each movement period, and there is also a problem that it cannot be used when the goods in the container are easily damaged items such as strawberries. It was.
[0012]
The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the conveyor belt portion in contact with a container containing easily fragile items such as strawberries can appropriately and smoothly move the container to appropriately arrange the container in the space in the apparatus. An object of the present invention is to provide a container for loading easily fragile goods, which can be loaded as much as possible until the next process is taken out.
[0013]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The container for loading easily fragile goods according to the present invention is formed of a pair of parallel pairs or a plurality of pairs of long substantially rod-like bodies arranged symmetrically across a gap portion having a predetermined width, and a predetermined fragile article enters on the upper side. A set of a container support on which the container is placed and one or a plurality of the container supports arranged in parallel in the horizontal direction are arranged in parallel in a plurality of stages in the vertical direction. It is formed by a predetermined frame that is fixedly supported integrally in the installed state, two pulleys that are pivotally supported and an endless belt that is spanned between the pulleys, and each pulley rotation shaft is arranged in the container support longitudinal direction. The outer peripheral surface of the endless belt between the pulleys is substantially aligned with the upper portion of the container support and is disposed in the space between the container supports, and the pulley is driven by a predetermined driving means. No parallel between the pulley and the longitudinal direction of the container support A container belt of the container is disposed substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the container support, with a conveying belt portion for advancing the belt and surfaces facing the sides of the container support facing each other as an interval that substantially coincides with the interval between the side surfaces of the container. Guide means for restraining lateral movement on the support, and restraining means disposed on one end side of the container support so as to be in contact with the container and restraining movement of the container in the container support extension direction. And with The conveyor belt portion is disposed with a pulley position closer to the restraining means spaced apart from the restraining means by at least approximately the container length. Is.
[0014]
As described above, in the present invention, a plurality of container supports and conveyance belt portions for supporting the easily damaged goods container from the lower side are disposed, and a restraining means for suppressing excessive advance of the easily damaged goods container is disposed on one end of the container support. The container is supported while the carrier belt is supported by the container support as the endless belt of the conveyor belt advances. By being able to transfer to the container support one end side, which is the take-out position, the container can be smoothly moved on the container support to efficiently stock the take-out position at the beginning, and can be appropriately handled for taking out the container for the next process In addition, new easily damaged containers can be placed sequentially on the empty container support, and the efficiency of container delivery work between processes can be improved. In addition, the container support and the conveyor belt can contact the lower part of the container with the necessary minimum contact area and can be transferred while minimizing the impact on easily damaged items in the container, and can be transferred to the container until the container removal position is reached. The quality of easily damaged items in the container can be maintained by suppressing impacts.
[0015]
Also , Carrying The terminal position of the feeding belt portion is arranged at least the container length away from the stopping means at one end of the container support, and the container has reached the take-out position near the stopping means, which is the highest reachable point by the conveyor belt portion. After that, there is almost no contact with the conveyor belt part, and since it is not affected by the operation of the conveyor belt part, there is no inconvenience such as excessive contact between the container at the take-out position and the belt conveyor in the operating state and the friction accompanying this Regardless of the presence or absence of the container at the take-out position, the conveyor belt portion can be operated, and the newly placed container can be fed forward following the container that has reached the take-out position, thereby improving the container accommodation efficiency in the apparatus.
[0016]
Further, in the easily loadable product loading container loading device according to the present invention, the restraining means causes the transport belt unit to advance one container to the one end side of the container support without any subsequent container as necessary. In the vicinity of the container tip position in the state and at a location that is at least away from the tip of the container, disposed in the vicinity of the restraining means, and two or more containers are on the container support And detecting means for detecting a state in which the foremost container that is pushed by the succeeding container and is in contact with the restraining means is in contact with the restraining means, and stops the operation of the conveying belt portion.
[0017]
Thus, in the present invention, the position of the restraining means is arranged such that the container can contact the restraining means only after the container that has reached the take-out position is pushed by the subsequent container remaining on the transport belt portion. The detecting means for detecting that the container has come into contact with the stopping means is disposed, and only when two or more containers are transported on the container support, the container comes into contact with the stopping means and the conveying belt portion passes through the detecting means. By automatically stopping the operation, in the case of only one container on the container support, the operation of the conveyor belt portion is allowed and the newly placed container can be packed more forward. On the other hand, if there are enough containers on the container support, the conveyor belt unit can be properly stopped and controlled, and the container can be loaded on the apparatus as much as possible. Prevent from joining the container and easy loss Possible to maintain the quality of certainty.
[0018]

It is explanatory drawing of a stopper part contact process of a fragile goods container.
[0019]
In each of the above drawings, the lossy product container mounting device 1 according to the present embodiment is formed of a pair of parallel long rod-like bodies sandwiching a gap 11 having a predetermined width, and contains an easily lossable product (strawberry) on the upper side. A set in which a container support 10 on which the container 70 is placed and a plurality of container supports 10 in which the gap portion 11 faces up and down is arranged in parallel in the horizontal direction is substantially parallel to a plurality of stages in the vertical direction. The frame 20 that is fixedly supported integrally in a state of being arranged side by side, the conveyance belt portion 30 disposed in the space 11 between the container supports 10, and the opposite surfaces on both sides of the container support 10 are the containers. A guide portion 40 as the guide means, which is disposed in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the container support 10 as an interval substantially matching the interval between the side surfaces of the 70, and restrains the lateral movement of the container 70 on the container support 10. The container 7 on one end side of the container support 10. The stopper portion 50 is disposed in the vicinity of the stopper portion 50, and is disposed near the stopper portion 50. The stopper portion 50 is disposed in the vicinity of the stopper portion 50. It is a structure provided with the detection means (illustration omitted) which stops the operation | movement of the conveyance belt part 30 by detecting the state which contact | connects.
[0020]
The container support 10 is formed of two long substantially rod-like bodies having a predetermined cross-sectional shape whose upper surface is in a low friction state, and the substantially rod-like bodies are parallel to each other at a predetermined interval that can stably support the container 70. In this structure, the space 20 is fixedly disposed on the frame 20 and the middle is the gap 11, and a container 70 containing easily fragile items is placed on the upper side and the container 70 is slidably supported. The stopper portion 50 is disposed at one end of each container support 10 so as to stand on the container support 10.
[0021]
The frame 20 is a substantially frame-like body that integrally fixes and supports the container support 10 in a state in which three sets of the container support 10 are arranged in parallel in the horizontal direction and arranged in three stages vertically in the vertical direction. It is the structure arrange | positioned in the delivery position of a fragile goods container with the container support body 10 one end side facing the next process side, and the container support body 10 other end side facing the front process side. In this frame 20, each container support 10 forms a substantially shelf-like body integrated with another container support 10 arranged side by side, whereby the rigidity of the container support 10 is increased, and the moving container 70 is arranged. The container 70 can be reliably and stably supported, and the container 70 can be smoothly transferred. In addition, in the frame 20, the container support body 10 one end side part which becomes a take-out side is protruded outward as the lower container support body 10 improves the take-out property of the container 70.
[0022]
The conveyor belt portion 30 is formed by two pulleys 31 and 32 that are pivotally supported, and a narrow endless belt 33 that spans between the pulleys 31 and 32. In the direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the container support 10 and one of the outer peripheral surfaces of the endless belt 33 between the pulleys 31 and 32 is made to substantially coincide with the upper part of the container support 10 to form a gap 11 between the container supports 10. The pulley 32 is driven by a predetermined driving means 60 and the endless belt 33 is circulated. The endless belt 33 is arranged between the pulleys 31 of the conveyor belt 30 in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the container support 10, and the upper surface of the endless belt 33 is in contact with the bottom of the container 70, This is a mechanism for transferring the container 70. A guide plate 34 that prevents the endless belt 33 from hanging down is provided integrally with the frame 20 below the upper traveling portion of the endless belt 33.
[0023]
The pulleys 31 and 32 are respectively pivotally supported at positions slightly away from both ends of the container support 10, and in particular, the position of the pulley 32 near one end of the container support 10 on the take-out side is the stopper portion 50. The arrangement is separated from the arrangement position by a distance substantially corresponding to the container length. The pulley 31 and the pulley 32 are integrated on a common shaft with other pulleys in the same parallel state as the corresponding container supports 10, and are collectively supported by the frame 20. Yes (see FIG. 4). The shaft on the pulley 32 side is interlocked with the driving means 60 disposed on the side of the frame 20, and is a mechanism that rotates by driving of the driving means 60. This drive means 60 is a rotation drive and rotation transmission mechanism combining a known motor, belt, belt wheel, etc., and detailed description thereof is omitted. Along with this driving means 60, a hand switch 61 for switching ON / OFF of the driving operation of the driving means 60 is separately provided outside the apparatus.
[0024]
The guide portion 40 is formed of a substantially metal plate-like body bent to have a substantially U-shaped cross section, and is spaced from the container support 10 on both sides of the container support 10 with approximately the same spacing as the side face of the container 70. It is configured to be fixedly arranged on the frame 20 in parallel and to prevent the lateral displacement of the container 70 by making the side surface serving as the guide surface slidably contact the side surface of the container 70. Of each guide part 40, the guide part 40 sandwiched between two adjacent container supports 10 is an integral common guide part having both guide surfaces corresponding to each container support 10, It does not matter as separate guide portions 40 each having a guide surface.
[0025]
The stopper portion 50 is formed of a substantially plate-like body disposed in an upright state at one end portion of each container support body 10 on the take-out side of the container 70, and is connected to the container 70 transferred on the container support body 10. It is the structure which stops the overrun of the container 70 by contact. The stopper portion 50 is located at a position that is separated from the end of the conveyor belt portion 30 on one end side of the container support 10 by the length of the container, more precisely, one carrier 70 is removed by the conveyor belt portion 30 without a subsequent container. It is disposed in the vicinity of the position of the tip of the container 70 in the state where it has been advanced to the one end side of the container support 10 as much as possible, and at a position that is at least not in contact with the tip of the container 70 (see FIG. 5A) Only when the container 70 that has reached one end side of the container support 10 is pushed forward in contact with another container that is being transported by the conveyor belt unit 30, the stopper unit 50 contacts and restrains the container 70. It is a mechanism to do.
[0026]
The stopper portion 50 is attached to the container support 10 so as to be slightly retractable by being pressed by the container 70 when coming into contact with the container 70, and is provided with a buffer material 51 that absorbs an impact force during the retraction. Thus, when the container 70 is stopped, the force is not applied to the container 70 as much as possible. In the vicinity of the stopper portion 50, a detection is made to detect a state in which the container 70 has reached the take-out position due to a slight movement of the stopper portion 50 in contact with the container 70 and has stopped moving further, and automatically stops the driving operation of the driving means 60. Means (not shown) are arranged, and this detecting means stops the driving means 60 in preference to the operation ON state at the hand switch 61, and an unreasonable force is applied to the container 70 from the conveying belt portion 30. To prevent. When the container 70 is taken out from the take-out position on the one end side of the container support 10, the detection means is brought into a non-detection state with the return of the state of the stopper portion 50, and the operation of the drive means 60 is allowed.
[0027]
Next, the operation of the lossy product container mounting device based on the above configuration will be described. As a premise, the container 70 transfer direction is from the other end side of the container support 10 toward one end side, and one end side of the container support 10 is referred to as the front side and the other end side is referred to as the rear side with respect to the transfer direction. First, in a state where nothing is placed on all the container supports 10, as a first stage, a container 70 containing strawberry as an easily damaged product is placed at the container transfer start position on the rear end side of all the container supports 10. After that, the driving means 60 is driven by the switching operation of the hand switch 61 to the ON state, each container 70 is moved by the transport belt portion 30, and the container 70 reaches the vicinity of the stopper portion 50 at the end of the container support 10. Thus, the container 70 is in a state where the container support 10 is taken out (see FIG. 3). In this state, the stopper unit 50 and the container 70 are not in contact with each other, and the driving means 60 can continue to operate. However, the hand switch 61 is temporarily switched to the OFF state and stopped.
[0028]
Subsequently, when the container 70 is placed on all the container supports 10 and the driving means 60 is operated as described above, the container 70 is moved forward by the conveyor belt portion 30 and moved forward until it contacts the leading container 70. The leading container 70 is pushed by the transferred succeeding container 70 and contacts the stopper portion 50 to slightly retract it (see FIG. 5B). As a result, the detecting means enters the presence detection state of the container 70, automatically stops the driving means 60, and the transfer by the conveying belt unit 30 is also stopped. After stopping the driving means 60, the operator can switch the hand switch 61 to the OFF state to avoid the sudden starting of the driving means 60 after the automatic stop state is released.
[0029]
After stopping the transfer, there is an empty space for one container on the rear end side of each container support 10, so that the operator can place the container 70 on these. On the other hand, on the take-out side, the operator takes out the container 70 from the take-out position and performs the next process. When all the containers 70 are taken out from the respective take-out positions, the contact between the containers 70 and the stopper portion 50 is lost, the detection means returns to the non-detection state, and the drive means 60 becomes operable. When the driving means 60 is operated through the switching operation of the hand switch 61, the container 70 is transferred by the conveyor belt portion 30, and a new leading container 70 reaches the take-out position and contacts the stopper portion 50 as described above. Due to the contact between the container 70 and the stopper 50, the driving means 60 automatically stops again.
On the front end side, the worker in the next process can take out the container 70 from the take-out position and perform the next process. On the rear end side, there is an empty space for one container. The container 70 can also be placed.
[0030]
When all the containers 70 are taken out from the respective take-out positions, the contact with the stopper portion 50 of the containers 70 is lost, and the driving means 60 can be operated in the same manner as described above. At 30, the container 70 is transferred, and the container 70 is newly at the take-out position. At this stage, if the container 70 is placed in the empty space generated on the rear end side of the apparatus in the previous stage, the new leading container 70 and the stopper portion 50 are in contact with each other and the container 70 must be placed. For example, this is the same as the first stage in which there is no contact between the new leading container 70 and the stopper portion 50.
[0031]
Thus, between the placement operation and the removal operation of the container 70, the driving means 60 is appropriately operated by the operation of the hand switch 61, and the process of transporting each container 70 forward by the conveyor belt portion 30 is repeated, whereby the pre-process On the side, the container can be loaded on the device as much as possible with the minimum placement operation of the operator, and the container can be continuously operated with only the minimum container removal operation of the operator on the next process side. Even when an operator takes charge of two processes before and after, the container handling between processes does not take time and can work efficiently.
[0032]
As described above, in the easily loadable product container mounting device according to the present embodiment, the plurality of container supports 10 and the conveyor belt unit 30 that support the container 70 containing the strawberries as the easily damaged product from the lower side are disposed. A stopper portion 50 is provided on one end side of the container support 10 to prevent the container 70 from advancing too much, and the transport belt portion 30 that contacts the lower surface of the container 70 placed on the other end of the container support 10 is operated to transport the container 70. As the endless belt 33 of the belt portion 30 advances, the container 70 can be transferred to one end side of the container support 10 that is the container 70 take-out position while being supported by the container support 10, so that the container 70 can be smoothly moved on the container support 10. It can be moved and stocked efficiently at the top of the take-out position, and it can respond appropriately to take-out of the container for the next process. In addition, new containers 70 can be placed on the empty container support 10 in order. , Efficiency can be improved container 70 transfer operations between processes. In addition, the container support 10 and the conveyor belt unit 30 can be transported while contacting the lower part of the container 70 with the necessary minimum contact area while minimizing the influence on the fragile strawberries, and after reaching the take-out position. The influence by the contact with the stopper unit 50 and the conveyor belt unit 30 can be avoided, and the quality of the easily damaged product (strawberry) in the container 70 can be maintained by suppressing the transmission of an impact to the container 70.
[0033]
In the easily loadable product container loading device according to the above-described embodiment, the detecting unit is provided together with the stopper unit 50, and the transfer by the conveying belt unit 30 is automatically stopped at the optimal timing when the container 70 is in contact with the stopper unit 50. However, in addition to this, an automatic stop mechanism including a detecting means is not provided, and the container transfer operation can be manually adjusted only by the ON / OFF operation of the hand switch 61. If attention is paid to the container transfer status, the cost can be further reduced by minimizing the adverse effects on the container 70 and the contents.
[0034]
Further, in the lossy product storage container loading device according to the above-described embodiment, all the conveyor belt units 30 are operated in synchronism with one drive means 60. The unit 30 may be driven individually. When an empty space is generated on a predetermined container support 10, the transport belt unit 30 is sequentially operated to move the container 70 forward, and the container is taken out and loaded. Can respond promptly.
[0035]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, a plurality of container supports and conveyor belt portions that support a container for easily damaged goods from below are disposed, and a restraining means that suppresses excessive advancement of the easily damaged goods container on one end side of the container support. And operating the conveyor belt portion that contacts the lower surface of the easily damaged goods container placed on the other end of the container support, and supporting the easily damaged goods container with the container support as the endless belt of the conveyor belt advances. The container can be transferred to one end side of the container support as the container removal position, allowing the container to move smoothly on the container support and efficiently stocking at the beginning of the removal position, making it suitable for container removal for the next process. In addition to being able to cope with this, it is possible to place new easily damaged containers in order on the empty container support, and it is possible to improve the efficiency of container delivery work between processes. In addition, the container support and the conveyor belt can contact the lower part of the container with the necessary minimum contact area and can be transferred while minimizing the impact on easily damaged items in the container, and can be transferred to the container until the container removal position is reached. It has the effect of suppressing the impact and the like and maintaining the quality of easily damaged items in the container.
[0036]
Further, according to the present invention, the end position of the transport belt portion is disposed at least the container length away from the stop means at one end portion of the container support, and the stop is the highest point at which the container can be moved by the transport belt portion. After reaching the take-out position in the vicinity of the means, it hardly comes into contact with the conveyor belt part and is not affected by the operation of the conveyor belt part, thereby causing excessive contact between the container at the take-out position and the belt conveyor in the operating state. Inconveniences such as friction do not occur, the conveyor belt can be operated regardless of the presence or absence of the container at the take-out position, and the newly placed container is fed forward after the container that has reached the take-out position, and the container in the device This has the effect of improving the housing efficiency.
[0037]
Further, according to the present invention, the position of the restraining means is arranged such that the container can contact the restraining means only after the container that has reached the take-out position is pushed by the subsequent container remaining on the transport belt portion. The detecting means for detecting that the container has come into contact with the stopping means is arranged, and only when two or more containers are continuously transferred on the container support, the container comes into contact with the stopping means and the conveying belt is passed through the detecting means. By automatically stopping the operation of the unit, in the case of only one container on the container support, the operation of the transport belt unit is allowed, and the newly placed container is packed further forward. On the other hand, when there are enough containers on the container support, it is possible to properly stop and control the conveyor belt unit, so that the container can be loaded on the device to the maximum, and at the same time, an excessive force is applied to each container from the conveyor belt unit. Prevents the addition of containers and easily damaged items An effect that the quality can be reliably maintained.
