  In this sliding type rice weighing unit, rice for the capacity of the weighing pad is taken out into the rice receiving container by one sliding operation (drawing to pushing back). For example, when the capacity of the weighing saddle unit is 1 go, it is possible to take out 1 go rice by one slide operation and take 2 go rice by two slide operations.

  For this reason, in order to take out two sets of rice in one slide operation, it is necessary to set the capacity of the weighing saddle section to 2 joints. To secure a pull-out stroke from the position where the measuring paddle communicates with the rice storage section, through the position where the measuring paddle section does not communicate with the rice storage section and the rice receiving container, Occupied space increases.

  Moreover, in recent years, a small amount of rice, such as 0.5 go, is often performed especially among single persons, etc., and there is an increasing demand for a small amount of weighing. In response to such a demand, if the capacity of the weighing rod in the sliding rice weighing unit is 0.5 go, the number of operations increases when performing general integer weighing (1 go, 2 go, etc.). The problem arises.

Then, it is pulled out to the pulling position [FIG. 5 (c)]. When the first slide body 9 is pushed back from this pulled-out state [FIG. 5C] (arrow D), the first slide body 9 and the second slide body 10 are interlocked by the push interlocking piece 10h of the second slide body 10. To return to the accommodation position [FIG. 5 (a)].

Next, the weighing operation will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, the measurement using the first slide body 9 will be described as an example.
<Drawing operation (FIG. 6)>
In the accommodated state [FIG. 6 (a)], the first slide body 9 has the upper opening of the front measuring rod portion 9c communicating with the guide tube 8a of the guide frame body 8 and the lower surface opening of the bottom plate 8d of the guide frame body 8. The rice stored in the hopper 1c from the rice discharge port 1d is introduced into the front measuring trough 9c.

  When the first slide body 9 is pulled out from the accommodated state [FIG. 6A] to the intermediate state [FIG. 6B], the lower surface opening of the guide tube 8a is closed by the sliding plate 9d of the first slide body 9. Then, the introduction of rice from the rice discharge port 1d to the front measuring trough 9c is stopped. At the same time, the lower surface opening of the front measuring trough 9c remains blocked by the bottom plate 8d of the guide frame 8, and as a result, a certain amount of rice is stored in the front measuring trough 9c.

  When the first slide body 9 is pulled out from the intermediate state [FIG. 6 (b)] to the pulled-out state (FIG. 6 (c)), the lower surface opening of the front measuring rod portion 9c is the guide frame body 8. A certain amount of rice communicated with the front opening 8e and discharged in the front measuring trough 9c is discharged into the rice receiving container 3. At the same time, the upper opening of the rear measuring rod 9e communicates with the guide tube 8a of the guide frame 8, and the lower opening is closed by the bottom plate 8d of the guide frame 8, and is stored in the hopper 1c from the rice discharge port 1d. The rice is introduced into the rear measuring trough 9e.

  By such a pulling-out operation, first, the rice weighed by the front weighing trough 9c is taken out into the rice receiving container 3. Although the rice may jump out of the measuring saddle due to the impact of the pulling-out operation, the first guide frame 8b of the guide member 8 prevents the rice from jumping out.

<Push-back operation (FIG. 7)>
In the pulled state [FIG. 7 (a)], the first slide body 9 is introduced with rice in the hopper 1c into the rear measuring trough 9e as in the pulled state [FIG. 6 (c)].

  When the first slide body 9 is pushed back from the pulled-out state [FIG. 7A] to the intermediate state [FIG. 7B], the lower surface opening of the guide cylinder 8a is closed by the sliding plate 9d of the first slide body 9. Thus, the introduction of rice from the rice discharge port 1d to the rear measuring trough 9e is stopped. At the same time, the lower surface opening of the rear weighing gutter portion 9e remains blocked by the bottom plate 8d of the guide frame 8, and as a result, a certain amount of rice is stored in the rear weighing gutter portion 9e.

  When the first slide body 9 is pushed back from the intermediate state [FIG. 7B] to the accommodated state [FIG. 7C], the lower surface opening of the rear measuring rod 9e communicates with the rear opening 8f of the guide frame body 8. Then, a certain amount of rice in the rear measuring trough 9e is discharged into the rice receiving container 3. At the same time, the rice in the hopper 1c is introduced into the front measuring trough 9c as in the accommodation state [FIG. 6 (a)].

  By such pushing back operation, the rice weighed by the rear weighing trough 9e is also taken out into the rice receiving container 3. Although the rice sometimes jumps up from the measuring saddle due to the impact of the pushing back operation, the second guide frame 8c of the guide member 8 prevents the rice from jumping out.

  Thus, by reciprocatingly sliding the first slide body 9 in the range from the storage position to the withdrawal position, the rice weighed by the front measuring trough 9c at the time of going out is discharged to the rice receiving container 3 and returned. Sometimes the rice weighed by the rear weighing trough 9e is discharged into the rice receiving container 3. Thereby, if the capacity | capacitances of the front and rear weighing saddles are set to 0.5 go respectively, 1 go of rice can be taken out by the reciprocating slide of the first slide body 9. Similarly, when the second slide body 10 is operated, since the first slide body 9 and the second slide body 10 are interlocked, two rices can be taken out together.

  In the conventional weighing device shown in Patent Document 1, rice is weighed and discharged only when a reciprocating slide is going forward, and therefore, when taking out two sets of rice, it is necessary to perform two sliding operations. In the weighing device according to the present invention, the rice is weighed and discharged when the reciprocating slide is going forward and backward, so that two sets of rice can be taken out in one slide operation without changing the space occupied by the slide body. Is possible. In other words, it is possible to reduce the space occupied by the slide body required to take out a single rice.

Now, in the weighing device of the present invention, the mounting member 11 that closes the weighing hook portion of the slide body is prepared in order to realize the weighing of 0.5 unit. FIG. 8 shows the mounting member 11.
The attachment member 11 includes a lid plate 11a that closes the upper surface of the rear measuring rod portion 9e, and claw pieces 11b that are suspended downward from each side except for the front surface of the lid plate 11a. When fitted so as to be hooked to the engaging portion 9i formed on the inner surface of the measuring rod 9e, the cover plate 11a is flush with the slide plate 9d of the first slide body 9, and the rice to the rear measuring rod 9e Stop inflow.

  As a result, the lower surface opening of the guide tube 8a is closed by the lid plate 11a of the mounting member 11 in the state in which the first slide body 9 is pulled out in the pulling operation [FIG. 9], and the rice stored in the hopper 1c is stored in the rear weighing rod. It will not be introduced into the part 9e. Therefore, only the weighing at the front measuring trough 9c is performed, and when the capacity of the front measuring trough 9c is 0.5 go, the rice of 0.5 go can be taken out by the reciprocating slide of the first slide body 9. it can.
