Description

本発明は、器に封入された小片状物品の均し装置に関し、特に、フレーク状、または、ほぐされた肉や魚肉などの小片状食品を缶に充填後、巻き締め密封により偏った食品を均して提供する、容器に封入された小片状物品の均し装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a device for leveling small pieces of food enclosed in a container , and in particular, the can is filled with flakes or small pieces of food such as loosened meat or fish meat, and then rolled and sealed. The present invention relates to a leveling device for small pieces of food enclosed in a container for leveling and providing the food.

従来からツナ缶詰など、フレーク状、または、ほぐされた肉または魚肉などの小片状食品は、缶に小片状食品を充填後、缶蓋で二重巻き締め密封し、レトルト殺菌処理を経て出荷されている。
この二重巻き締めの際、例えば特許文献1のように、缶本体の自転により小片状食品(魚肉)に遠心力が作用し、小片状食品が缶本体の周縁側に押し出され偏り、缶内の小片状食品中央部に穴開き現象が発生する。
この穴開き現象は、開缶時に見栄えが悪く、商品性を著しく損なう問題がある。
穴開き現象は缶詰のレトルト殺菌処理や、通常の搬送、輸送による振動を経ても解消しないため、特許文献1では、缶円筒半径方向に強制的に振動させ、缶詰内の偏りを修正している。
また、特許文献2では、フレーク状食品が偏った状態で収容された容器を、容器円筒中心軸を中心に回転搬送させながら容器円筒半径方向に振動させ、容器内のフレーク状食品をほぐし、偏りを修正している。
Conventionally, flake-shaped foods such as canned tuna, or small pieces of food such as loosened meat or fish meat are filled with small pieces of food, then double-wrapped and sealed with a can lid, and then retort sterilized. It has been shipped.
At the time of this double winding, for example, as in Patent Document 1, centrifugal force acts on the small piece food (fish meat) due to the rotation of the can body, and the small piece food is pushed out to the peripheral side of the can body and biased. A perforation phenomenon occurs in the center of a small piece of food in a can.
This perforation phenomenon has a problem that it does not look good when the can is opened and the commercial value is significantly impaired.
Since the perforation phenomenon cannot be eliminated even through retort sterilization treatment of canned foods and vibration caused by normal transportation, Patent Document 1 forcibly vibrates in the radial direction of the canned cylinder to correct the bias in the canned food. ..
Further, in Patent Document 2, the container in which the flake-shaped food is stored in a biased state is vibrated in the radial direction of the container cylinder while being rotationally conveyed around the center axis of the container cylinder to loosen the flake-shaped food in the container and is biased. Is being fixed.

しかし、特許文献1、特許文献2とも、複雑な機構を備えた装置や、大型の装置を必要とするため、簡素な穴開き現象の改善方法や装置が求められている。 However, since both Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 require a device having a complicated mechanism and a large device, there is a demand for a simple method and device for improving the hole-drilling phenomenon.

以下、図面を参照しつつ、本発明の好適な実施形態について説明する。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

まず、図1,2を用いて、本実施形態の容器例の缶本体1、および、小片状物品が封入された容器例の缶詰10(小片状食品であるツナフレークが充填・巻き締め密封された缶詰)について説明する。 First, using FIGS. 1 and 2, the can body 1 of the container example of the present embodiment and the canned 10 of the container example in which the small piece-shaped article is enclosed (tuna flakes, which are small piece-shaped food, are filled and wrapped and sealed. The canned food) will be described.

缶本体1は例えばスチール、ぶりき、アルミニウム、あるいはアルミニウム合金等、公知の缶用金属材料を公知の絞り加工、絞りしごき加工、または、溶接・巻き締めなどによって形成され、円筒状の胴部を有した側部2と、底板を有した底部3と、上方の開口部4を備える。
絞り加工、絞りしごき加工の場合は、側部(胴部)と底部が一体の缶本体(後述する下側の巻き締め部9を有さない2ピース缶用缶本体)となるが、本実施形態では公知の製法により、印刷塗装されたぶりき板を丸め側端接合部を溶接して胴部を形成後、上下の両開口部のうち、縮径が必要な開口部を縮径加工した後、両開口部をフランジ形成する。
次に、一方の開口部フランジに、底板として、必要に応じて印刷された後、塗装されたアルミニウム合金板やぶりき等から形成され、必要に応じて開口スコアやプルタブが設けられ、シーリングコンパウンドを塗布した缶蓋5を巻き締め、底部3とした缶本体1(3ピース缶用缶本体)としている。
The can body 1 is formed of a known metal material for cans such as steel, fluff, aluminum, or an aluminum alloy by known drawing, squeezing, welding, winding, or the like, and has a cylindrical body. It is provided with a side portion 2 having a side portion 2, a bottom portion 3 having a bottom plate, and an upper opening 4.
In the case of drawing and ironing, the side (body) and bottom are integrated into a can body (a can body for two-piece cans that does not have the lower winding tightening part 9, which will be described later). In the form, a printed and painted tin plate was rolled and the side end joints were welded to form a body, and then the upper and lower openings that required a reduction in diameter were reduced in diameter by a known manufacturing method. After that, both openings are flanged.
Next, one opening flange is formed from a painted aluminum alloy plate, fluff, etc. after being printed as a bottom plate as a bottom plate, and an opening score or pull tab is provided as necessary to provide a sealing compound. The applied can lid 5 is wrapped around to form a can body 1 (a can body for a 3-piece can) having a bottom 3.

そして、缶本体1の他方の開口部4から内容品を充填後、缶蓋5と同様で開口部4に合わせた大きさの缶蓋6により開口部4を巻き締め密封して、缶蓋6を天部7とする缶詰10となる。 Then, after filling the contents from the other opening 4 of the can body 1, the opening 4 is wound and sealed with a can lid 6 having a size matching the opening 4 in the same manner as the can lid 5, and the can lid 6 is used. Is a canned product 10 having a top portion 7.

なお、側部2は、底部3を下方に向けた状態で缶詰10を載置した時に、側方に面する部分であり、図2に示す例の場合、側部2は、胴部と、上側の巻き締め部8の一部と、下側の巻き締め部9の一部とを含んでいる。
また、天部7は、底部3を下方に向けた状態で缶詰10を載置した時に、上方に面する部分であり、図2に示す例の場合、天部7は、天板と、上側の巻き締め部8の一部とを含んでいる。
また、底部3は、底部3を下方に向けた状態で缶詰10を載置した時に、下方に面する部分であり、図2に示す例の場合、底部3は、底板と、下側の巻き締め部9の一部とを含んでいる。
また、図2に示す例では、天部7の天板の外周に形成された上側の巻き締め部8は、天部7の天板よりも上方に突出するとともに、側部2の胴部よりも側方に突出している。なお、上側の巻き締め部8を形成した場合であっても、天部7のうち天板が最も上方に位置するようにしてもよく、また、側部2のうち胴部が横方向における最も外側に位置するようにしてもよい。
また、図2に示す例では、底部3の底板の外周に形成された下側の巻き締め部9は、底部3の底板よりも下方に突出するとともに、側部2の胴部よりも側方に突出している。なお、下側の巻き締め部9を形成した場合であっても、底部3のうち底板が最も下方に位置するようにしてもよく、また、側部2のうち胴部が横方向における最も外側に位置するようにしてもよい。
また、図2に示す例では、天部7の天板と底部3の底板とは、平坦状に形成されているが、天板および底板の具体的態様は、容器の内側に向けて凹むように湾曲したもの等、如何なるものでもよい。
The side portion 2 is a portion facing the side when the canned product 10 is placed with the bottom portion 3 facing downward. In the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the side portion 2 is a body portion. A part of the upper winding portion 8 and a part of the lower winding portion 9 are included.
Further, the top portion 7 is a portion facing upward when the canned product 10 is placed with the bottom portion 3 facing downward. In the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the top portion 7 is the top plate and the upper side. It includes a part of the winding portion 8 of the above.
Further, the bottom portion 3 is a portion facing downward when the canned food 10 is placed with the bottom portion 3 facing downward. In the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the bottom portion 3 is a bottom plate and a lower winding. It includes a part of the tightening portion 9.
Further, in the example shown in FIG. 2, the upper winding portion 8 formed on the outer periphery of the top plate of the top portion 7 projects upward from the top plate of the top portion 7 and from the body portion of the side portion 2. Also protrudes to the side. Even when the upper winding portion 8 is formed, the top plate of the top portion 7 may be located at the uppermost position, and the body portion of the side portions 2 may be located at the uppermost position in the lateral direction. It may be located on the outside.
Further, in the example shown in FIG. 2, the lower winding portion 9 formed on the outer periphery of the bottom plate of the bottom portion 3 projects downward from the bottom plate of the bottom portion 3 and laterally from the body portion of the side portion 2. It stands out. Even when the lower winding portion 9 is formed, the bottom plate of the bottom portion 3 may be located at the lowermost position, and the body portion of the side portion 2 is the outermost portion in the lateral direction. It may be located in.
Further, in the example shown in FIG. 2, the top plate of the top 7 and the bottom plate of the bottom 3 are formed in a flat shape, but the specific embodiment of the top plate and the bottom plate is such that the top plate and the bottom plate are recessed toward the inside of the container. Anything may be used, such as a curved one.

ここで、内容品として小片状物品、例えば、ほぐされた肉などの食品や、ツナフレークなどの薄片状食品を缶本体1に充填・巻き締め密封する際、充填時にツナフレークが偏ったり、缶蓋6の缶シーマーによる巻き締め時に缶本体1を高速回転させた際の遠心力によってツナフレークがドーナツ状に偏ったりすることがある(特許文献1参照)。 Here, when a small piece of food such as loosened meat or a flaky food such as tuna flakes is filled in the can body 1 and sealed by winding and sealing, the tuna flakes may be biased during filling or the can lid may be used. The tuna flakes may be biased in a donut shape due to the centrifugal force when the can body 1 is rotated at high speed during winding by the can seamer of No. 6 (see Patent Document 1).

次に図3を用いて、容器内で偏った小片状物品の均し方の一例を説明する。
小片状物品であるツナフレークが偏った缶詰10(容器)を、レトルト殺菌処理前およびレトルト殺菌処理後の少なくとも一方で、缶詰10と他の物体とを上下方向(重力方向)に相対的に衝突させ、具体的には、缶詰10の天部7または底部3の少なくとも一方と他の物体とを上下方向に相対的に衝突させることで、缶詰10に衝撃を加える。
なお、本明細書内における「衝突」とは、相対的に運動する2つの物体が接触することを意味する。
衝撃を加える方法としては、天部7側および底部3側の少なくとも一部に、接触面積が広い質量物体(他の物体)を当てて衝撃を加えてもよいし、打検等で公知の電磁誘導作用による強制励振によって衝撃を加えてもよいが、図3に示すように、天部7側または底部3側を下にして強固で平坦な接地面(他の物体)と天部7(の天板)または底部3(の底板)がほぼ平行となるようにして下方に落下させるのが簡便な方法で大きな衝撃を加えられるため好ましい。
図3では、天部7側を下にして落下している。
質量物体を当てる衝撃や、電磁誘導作用による衝撃の場合、缶詰10の天部7側および底部3側の少なくとも一部に加えられた衝撃が天部7、または缶本体1の底部3、あるいは天部7側または底部3側から衝撃の伝わった側部2からツナフレークに伝わり、伝わった衝撃により偏ったツナフレークはほぐれ、あるいは崩れることで均される。
接地面と、天部7または底部3とがほぼ平行な状態で下方に落下する場合は、落下後、缶詰10が接地面に当たった時の、缶本体1(側部2および底部3)および天部7の少なくとも一部からツナフレークに伝わる衝撃と、ツナフレーク自身が缶本体1および天部7の少なくとも一部(主に落下時に下に位置された側の面)に打ち付けられたときの衝撃により、偏ったツナフレークはほぐれ、あるいは崩れ、均される。
天部7側または底部3側を下にして缶詰10を下方に落下させるため、缶詰10の比較的強度の高い巻き締め部8、9の上部が接地面にあたるので、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなる。
このとき、巻き締め部8、9の全体が均等に当たるよう、より缶詰10の下面と接地面が平行に近い形態で落下させると、より異常変形しにくくなるので好ましい。
ここで、缶本体が、絞り加工、絞りしごき加工により側部(胴部)と底部が一体の場合(すなわち、底部3のうち底板が最も下方に位置している場合)も、底板の広い範囲で缶底部が接地面にあたるので、異常変形しにくくなり、より下面と接地面が平行に近い形態で落下させると、より異常変形しにくくなる。
このような方法により、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなる。
また、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなるので、落下高さを高めに設定することが可能となる。
Next, with reference to FIG. 3, an example of how to level the small pieces of articles that are biased in the container will be described.
A canned product 10 (container) in which tuna flakes, which are small pieces, are biased, collides with the canned product 10 and other objects in the vertical direction (gravity direction) at least one before the retort sterilization treatment and after the retort sterilization treatment. Specifically, an impact is applied to the canning 10 by relatively colliding at least one of the top portion 7 or the bottom portion 3 of the canning 10 with the other object in the vertical direction.
In addition, "collision" in the present specification means that two relatively moving objects come into contact with each other.
As a method of applying an impact, a mass object (another object) having a wide contact area may be applied to at least a part of the top 7 side and the bottom 3 side to apply an impact, or an electromagnetic wave known by impact inspection or the like may be applied. An impact may be applied by forced excitation by an inductive action, but as shown in FIG. 3, a strong and flat ground surface (another object) and a top 7 (of) with the top 7 side or the bottom 3 side facing down. It is preferable to drop the top plate) or the bottom 3 (bottom plate) downward so as to be substantially parallel to each other because a large impact can be applied by a simple method.
In FIG. 3, it is falling with the top 7 side facing down.
In the case of an impact that hits a mass object or an impact due to an electromagnetic induction action, the impact applied to at least a part of the top 7 side and the bottom 3 side of the can 10 is the top 7, the bottom 3 of the can body 1, or the heaven. The tuna flakes transmitted from the side portion 2 to which the impact is transmitted from the portion 7 side or the bottom portion 3 side to the tuna flakes, and the tuna flakes biased by the transmitted impact are unraveled or collapsed to be leveled.
When the ground contact surface and the top portion 7 or the bottom portion 3 are substantially parallel to each other and fall downward, the can body 1 (side portion 2 and bottom portion 3) and the can body 1 (side portion 2 and bottom portion 3) when the canned product 10 hits the ground contact surface after the fall. Due to the impact transmitted from at least a part of the top 7 to the tuna flakes and the impact when the tuna flakes themselves are struck on at least a part of the can body 1 and the top 7 (mainly the side surface located below when dropped). , Unbalanced tuna flakes are loosened, crumbled and leveled.
Since the canning 10 is dropped downward with the top 7 side or the bottom 3 side facing down, the upper part of the relatively strong winding portions 8 and 9 of the canning 10 hits the ground contact surface, so that the canning 10 is less likely to be deformed abnormally. Become.
At this time, it is preferable to drop the canned product 10 in a form in which the lower surface of the canned product 10 and the ground contact surface are closer to parallel so that the entire wound tightening portions 8 and 9 are evenly touched, because abnormal deformation is less likely to occur.
Here, even when the side portion (body portion) and the bottom portion of the can body are integrated by drawing and squeezing (that is, when the bottom plate of the bottom portion 3 is located at the lowest position), a wide range of the bottom plate is available. Since the bottom of the can hits the ground contact surface, abnormal deformation is less likely to occur, and when the lower surface and the ground contact surface are dropped in a form closer to parallel, abnormal deformation is less likely to occur.
By such a method, the canned product 10 is less likely to be abnormally deformed.
Further, since the canned food 10 is less likely to be abnormally deformed, it is possible to set the drop height higher.

底部3側の缶蓋5がアルミニウム合金製イージーオープンエンドなどの開口可能な缶蓋の場合、底部3側を下に向けて落下させた場合、落下衝撃による誤開口のおそれがあるときは、図3のように缶詰10を、天部7側を下にして下方に落下させるのが好ましい。 When the can lid 5 on the bottom 3 side is an openable can lid such as an aluminum alloy easy open end, when the bottom 3 side is dropped downward and there is a risk of erroneous opening due to a drop impact, the figure is shown in the figure. It is preferable to drop the canned product 10 downward as in No. 3 with the top 7 side facing down.

缶詰10の落下高さは、缶詰10の質量や、缶詰10(缶本体1と缶蓋6)へのダメージ、ツナフレークの過度なほぐれや崩れなどの防止、缶詰10の落下のやりやすさ(取り扱いやすさ)を考慮して、適宜設定すればよく、可能なかぎりなるべく高めに設定するのが好ましく、高さは90mm以上が好ましく、100mm以上がより好ましい。 The drop height of the can 10 is the mass of the can 10, damage to the can 10 (can body 1 and can lid 6), prevention of excessive loosening and collapse of the tuna flakes, and ease of dropping the can 10 (handling). Ease) may be set as appropriate, and it is preferable to set it as high as possible, and the height is preferably 90 mm or more, more preferably 100 mm or more.

落下回数は、缶詰10の質量や、缶詰10(缶本体1と缶蓋6)へのダメージ、ツナフレークの過度なほぐれや崩れなどの防止、均し状態を考慮して、適宜設定すればよく、可能な限り多くの回数を設定するのが好ましく、好ましくは5回以上、より好ましくは6回以上、更に好ましくは8回以上がよい。
なお、上記で説明した落下高さや落下回数は、小片状物品が封入された容器の総重量が90~110gである場合に好適である。
The number of drops may be appropriately set in consideration of the mass of the can 10, damage to the can 10 (can body 1 and can lid 6), prevention of excessive loosening and collapse of the tuna flakes, and a leveling state. It is preferable to set as many times as possible, preferably 5 times or more, more preferably 6 times or more, still more preferably 8 times or more.
The drop height and the number of drops described above are suitable when the total weight of the container in which the small piece-shaped article is enclosed is 90 to 110 g.

ツナフレークなど、レトルト殺菌処理が必要な食品缶詰10で、均し処理前にレトルト殺菌が行われていなかった場合は、均し処理後にレトルト殺菌処理が施され、ツナフレークの缶詰10が製造される。 If the canned food 10 that requires retort sterilization treatment such as tuna flakes has not been retort sterilized before the leveling treatment, the retort sterilization treatment is performed after the leveling treatment to produce the canned tuna flakes 10.

次に、図4を用いて、本実施形態の容器に封入された小片状物品の均し装置として、ツナフレーク缶詰均し装置100を説明する。 Next, with reference to FIG. 4, the tuna flake canned leveling device 100 will be described as a leveling device for small pieces of articles enclosed in the container of the present embodiment.

ツナフレーク缶詰均し装置100は、ツナフレーク(小片状食品、小片状物品)が封入された容器(缶詰10)の天部7または底部3の少なくとも一部と他の物体とを上下方向に相対的に衝突させることで、缶詰10に衝撃を加える衝撃付与手段として、落下手段110を備えている。
落下手段は公知の落下装置でもよいが、本実施形態の落下手段110は、上方搬送コンベア120と、スライド板130と、下方搬送コンベア140を備えている。
In the canned tuna flake leveling device 100, at least a part of the top portion 7 or the bottom portion 3 of the container (canned food 10) containing the tuna flakes (small pieces of food, small pieces of articles) and other objects are relative to each other in the vertical direction. The falling means 110 is provided as an impact applying means for giving an impact to the canning 10 by colliding with each other.
The drop means may be a known drop device, but the drop means 110 of the present embodiment includes an upper transfer conveyor 120, a slide plate 130, and a lower transfer conveyor 140.

プーリー141の少なくとも一つは、図示しないモーターなどの駆動源により回転駆動され、ベルト142を回転させる。
下方搬送コンベア140はスライド板130から滑走した缶詰10が落下したときに適度な衝撃を与えられるよう、スライド板130との高さが適宜設定される。
下方搬送コンベア140の搬送面は落下してくる缶詰10に適度な衝撃を与えられるよう適度に堅くしておくのが好ましい。
例えばベルトの下にアルミニウム合金板、または、ステンレス板などの堅い板材143やブロックを配置するのが好ましい。
Below the slide plate 130, a lower conveyor 140 is provided.
Like the upper conveyor 120, the lower conveyor 140 includes a plurality of pulleys 141 and a belt 142.
At least one of the pulleys 141 is rotationally driven by a drive source such as a motor (not shown) to rotate the belt 142.
The height of the lower conveyor 140 with the slide plate 130 is appropriately set so that an appropriate impact is given when the canned product 10 slid from the slide plate 130 is dropped.
It is preferable that the transport surface of the lower transport conveyor 140 is appropriately stiffened so that the falling canning 10 can be appropriately impacted.
For example, it is preferable to arrange a hard plate material 143 or a block such as an aluminum alloy plate or a stainless plate under the belt.

上方搬送コンベア120から搬出された、内容品のツナフレークが偏った缶詰10は、スライド板130に乗り移ることによって、プーリー121に巻き込まれにくく、姿勢を崩されにくくなっている。
そして上下安定した姿勢で慣性により滑走した缶詰10は、上下安定した姿勢でスライド板130から滑り出し、下方の下方搬送コンベア140の搬送面(接地面、他の物体)に向けて下方に落下する。
下方搬送コンベア140の搬送面に落下したときの缶詰10の下面側(天部7側または底部3側であるが、本実施形態では天部7側)への衝撃により、偏ったツナフレークはほぐれ、崩れることによって均される。
The canned food 10 with the tuna flakes of the contents unbalanced carried out from the upper conveyor 120 is less likely to be caught in the pulley 121 and to be less likely to lose its posture by transferring to the slide plate 130.
Then, the canned product 10 that has slid in a stable vertical posture due to inertia slides out of the slide plate 130 in a stable vertical posture and falls downward toward the transport surface (ground plane, other object) of the lower transport conveyor 140 below.
The biased tuna flakes are loosened by the impact on the lower surface side (the top 7 side or the bottom 3 side, but in this embodiment, the top 7 side) of the canned product 10 when it falls on the transport surface of the lower conveyor 140. It is leveled by collapsing.

スライド板と、下方搬送コンベアは、缶詰10の落下回数を増やすため増設してもよい。
その際は、下方搬送コンベア140の下流側に図示しない次のスライド板を配置し、次のスライド板の下方に次の下方搬送コンベアを配置して、次の落下手段とする。
さらに落下回数を増やす場合も同様に、さらなるスライド板とさらなる下方搬送コンベアを適宜必要なだけ増設し、さらなる落下手段として、必要な回数落下可能な落下手段を必要数備えたツナフレーク缶詰均し装置となる。
The slide plate and the lower conveyor may be added in order to increase the number of times the canned food 10 is dropped.
In that case, the next slide plate (not shown) is arranged on the downstream side of the lower transfer conveyor 140, and the next lower transfer conveyor is arranged below the next slide plate to serve as the next drop means.
Similarly, when increasing the number of drops, a further slide plate and a further downward conveyor are added as needed, and as a further drop means, a tuna flake canning device equipped with a necessary number of drop means capable of dropping the required number of times. Become.

次に図7を用いて、容器内で偏った小片状物品の均し方の他の例を説明する。
小片状物品であるツナフレークが偏った缶詰10(容器)を、レトルト殺菌処理前およびレトルト殺菌処理後の少なくとも一方で、缶詰10と他の物体とを上下方向(重力方向)に相対的に衝突させ、具体的には、缶詰10の側部2と他の物体とを上下方向に相対的に衝突させることで、缶詰10に衝撃を加える。
衝撃を加える方法としては、側部2に質量物体(他の物体)を当てて衝撃を加えてもよいが、図7に示すように、側部2を下にして強固で平坦な接地面(他の物体)と側部2(の胴部)がほぼ平行となるようにして下方に落下させるのが簡便な方法で大きな衝撃を加えられるため好ましい。
質量物体を当てる衝撃の場合、缶詰10の側部2の少なくとも一部に加えられた衝撃が、側部2から、あるいは、側部2から伝わった衝撃が天部7および底部3の少なくとも一方から、ツナフレークに伝わり、伝わった衝撃により偏ったツナフレークはほぐれ、あるいは崩れることで均される。
接地面と、側部2とがほぼ平行な状態で下方に落下する場合は、落下後、缶詰10が接地面に当たった時の、缶本体1(側部2および底部3)および天部7の少なくとも一部からツナフレークに伝わる衝撃と、ツナフレーク自身が缶本体1および天部7の少なくとも一部(主に落下時に下に位置された側部2の胴部の内側面)に打ち付けられたときの衝撃により、偏ったツナフレークはほぐれ、あるいは崩れ、均される。
図7に示す例のように、側部2のうち巻き締め部8、9が横方向における最も外側に位置している場合(巻き締め部8、9が側部2の胴部よりも側方に突出している場合)、缶詰10の比較的強度の高い巻き締め部8、9が接地面にあたるので、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなる。
また、図7に示す例のように、側部2のうち巻き締め部8、9が横方向における最も外側に位置している場合、および、図示していないが、側部2のうち胴部が横方向における最も外側に位置している場合のいずれの場合であっても、落下の際、側部2の広い部分が接地面に均等に当たるよう缶詰10の側部(胴部)2と接地面が平行に近い形態で落下させると、衝撃が側部2の狭い範囲に集中しにくくなり異常変形しにくくなるので好ましい。
このような方法により、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなる。
また、缶詰10は異常変形しにくくなるので、落下高さを高めに設定することが可能となる。
Next, with reference to FIG. 7, another example of how to level the small pieces of articles that are biased in the container will be described.
A canned product 10 (container) in which tuna flakes, which are small pieces, are biased, collides with the canned product 10 and other objects in the vertical direction (gravity direction) at least one before the retort sterilization treatment and after the retort sterilization treatment. Specifically, the side portion 2 of the canning 10 and another object are relatively collided with each other in the vertical direction to give an impact to the canning 10.
As a method of applying an impact, a mass object (another object) may be applied to the side portion 2 to apply the impact, but as shown in FIG. 7, the side portion 2 is facing down and a strong and flat ground contact surface ( It is preferable to drop the side portion 2 (the body portion of the other object) so as to be substantially parallel to each other because a large impact can be applied by a simple method.
In the case of an impact that hits a mass object, the impact applied to at least a part of the side portion 2 of the canning 10 is from the side portion 2, or the impact transmitted from the side portion 2 is from at least one of the top portion 7 and the bottom portion 3. , The tuna flakes that are transmitted to the tuna flakes and are biased by the transmitted impact are leveled by loosening or collapsing.
When the canning surface and the side portion 2 are substantially parallel to each other and fall downward, the can body 1 (side portion 2 and bottom portion 3) and the top portion 7 when the canning 10 hits the ground contact surface after the fall. When the impact transmitted to the tuna flakes from at least a part of the can and the tuna flakes themselves are struck against at least a part of the can body 1 and the top 7 (mainly the inner surface of the body of the side 2 located below when dropped). Due to the impact of, the biased tuna flakes are loosened, crumbled, and leveled.
As in the example shown in FIG. 7, when the winding tightening portions 8 and 9 of the side portions 2 are located on the outermost side in the lateral direction (the winding tightening portions 8 and 9 are lateral to the body portion of the side portion 2). Since the relatively high-strength winding portions 8 and 9 of the canning 10 hit the ground plane, the canning 10 is less likely to be abnormally deformed.
Further, as in the example shown in FIG. 7, when the winding tightening portions 8 and 9 of the side portions 2 are located on the outermost side in the lateral direction, and although not shown, the body portion of the side portions 2 is located. In any case where is located on the outermost side in the lateral direction, it is in contact with the side portion (body portion) 2 of the canning 10 so that the wide portion of the side portion 2 evenly touches the ground contact surface during a fall. It is preferable to drop the ground in a form close to parallel because the impact is less likely to be concentrated in a narrow area of the side portion 2 and is less likely to be abnormally deformed.
By such a method, the canned product 10 is less likely to be abnormally deformed.
Further, since the canned product 10 is less likely to be abnormally deformed, it is possible to set the drop height higher.

缶詰10の落下高さは、缶詰10の質量や、缶詰10(缶本体1と缶蓋6)へのダメージ、ツナフレークの過度なほぐれや崩れなどの防止、缶詰10の落下のやりやすさ(取り扱いやすさ)を考慮して、適宜設定すればよく、可能なかぎりなるべく高めに設定するのが好ましく、高さは90mm以上160mm未満が好ましく、100mm以上160mm未満がより好ましい。 The drop height of the can 10 is the mass of the can 10, damage to the can 10 (can body 1 and can lid 6), prevention of excessive loosening and collapse of the tuna flakes, and ease of dropping the can 10 (handling). Ease) may be set as appropriate, and it is preferable to set it as high as possible, and the height is preferably 90 mm or more and less than 160 mm, and more preferably 100 mm or more and less than 160 mm.

落下回数は、缶詰10の質量や、缶詰10(缶本体1と缶蓋6)へのダメージ、ツナフレークの過度なほぐれや崩れなどの防止、均し状態を考慮して、適宜設定すればよい。
複数回落下させる場合は、落下させる側部2の向きを同じ向き(同じ箇所)で落下させると、落下させた方向にツナフレークは偏るので、落下回数を考慮して、各落下ごとになるべく均等に、落下回数の多角形を想定して、なるべく多角形の対角線上側に向きを変えて落下させるのが好ましい。
落下回数は、可能な限り多くの回数を設定するのが好ましく、好ましくは6回以上、更に好ましくは8回以上がよい。
なお、上記で説明した落下高さや落下回数は、小片状物品が封入された容器の総重量が90~110gである場合に好適である。
The number of drops may be appropriately set in consideration of the mass of the can 10, damage to the can 10 (can body 1 and can lid 6), prevention of excessive loosening and collapse of the tuna flakes, and a leveling state.
When dropping multiple times, if the side 2 to be dropped is dropped in the same direction (at the same location), the tuna flakes will be biased in the dropped direction, so consider the number of drops and make each drop as even as possible. Assuming a polygon with the number of drops, it is preferable to turn the polygon upward as much as possible and drop it.
The number of drops is preferably set as many as possible, preferably 6 times or more, and more preferably 8 times or more.
The drop height and the number of drops described above are suitable when the total weight of the container in which the small piece-shaped article is enclosed is 90 to 110 g.

ツナフレークなど、レトルト殺菌処理が必要な食品缶詰10で、均し処理前にレトルト殺菌が行われていなかった場合は、均し処理後にレトルト殺菌処理が施され、ツナフレークの缶詰10が製造される。 If the canned food 10 that requires retort sterilization treatment such as tuna flakes has not been retort sterilized before the leveling treatment, the retort sterilization treatment is performed after the leveling treatment to produce the canned tuna flakes 10.

次に、本発明の第1実施例について、以下に説明する。 Next, the first embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

底部3にアルミ合金製の易開封の缶蓋5(プルタブ付きのイージーオープンエンド)を備え、ぶりき製の缶胴を備える3ピース缶用缶本体1にツナフレークおよび調味液を合計で約70g充填後、ぶりき製の缶蓋6を、缶本体1が回転され巻き締められる缶シーマー(巻き締め密封装置)により二重巻き締め密封し、レトルト殺菌処理を行い、外径約φ74mm、高さ約29mmの缶詰10を用意した。
缶詰10を易開封の缶蓋5を備える底部3側を上に(缶蓋6を下側に)して、様々な高さから様々な回数落下した結果を示す。
The bottom 3 is equipped with an easy-to-open can lid 5 (easy open end with pull tab) made of aluminum alloy, and the can body 1 for 3-piece cans equipped with a can body made of fluff is filled with a total of about 70 g of tuna flakes and seasoning liquid. After that, the can lid 6 made of buriki is double-wound and sealed by a can seamer (winding and sealing device) in which the can body 1 is rotated and wound, and retort sterilization treatment is performed. A 29 mm canned product 10 was prepared.
The result of dropping the can 10 from various heights various times with the bottom 3 side provided with the easily opened can lid 5 facing up (the can lid 6 facing down) is shown.

FIG. 5 shows the result of dropping to the sixth unit with respect to the lower conveyor.

図5に示されるように、巻き締め前(回転前0回)は偏りなくほぐれているツナフレークに対し、巻き締め後(回転後0回)にツナフレークのドーナツ状偏りが生じている。
1台目から4台目の下方搬送コンベア(1~4回落下)までは、効果が少ないのに対し、5台目(5回落下)から偏りはほとんど改善され、6台目(6回落下)で偏りはなくなった。
As shown in FIG. 5, the tuna flakes are unbalanced before winding (0 times before rotation), whereas the donut-shaped bias of the tuna flakes occurs after winding (0 times after rotation).
The effect is small from the 1st to the 4th downward conveyor (1 to 4 drops), but the bias is almost improved from the 5th (5 drops), and the 6th (6 drops). The bias disappeared.

次に、本発明の第2実施例について、以下に説明する。 Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

底部3にアルミ合金製の易開封の缶蓋5(プルタブ付きのイージーオープンエンド)を備え、ぶりき製の側部(缶胴)2を備える3ピース缶用缶本体1にツナフレークを約70g充填後、ぶりき製の缶蓋6を、缶本体1が回転され巻き締められる缶シーマー(巻き締め密封装置)により二重巻き締め密封し、レトルト殺菌処理を行い、外径約φ74mm、高さ約29mmの缶詰10を用意した。
缶詰10を側部2を下にして、様々な高さから様々な回数落下した結果を示す。
なお、複数落下の際は、側部2を図7のように4方向に分け、対角線上4の字を書くよう向きを変えながら落下させた。
Approximately 70 g of tuna flakes are filled in the can body 1 for a 3-piece can, which has an easy-open can lid 5 (easy open end with pull tab) made of aluminum alloy on the bottom 3 and a side (can body) 2 made of fluff. After that, the can lid 6 made of buriki is double-wound and sealed by a can seamer (winding and sealing device) in which the can body 1 is rotated and wound, and retort sterilization treatment is performed. A 29 mm canned product 10 was prepared.
The result of dropping the canning 10 from various heights various times with the side portion 2 facing down is shown.
In the case of a plurality of drops, the side portion 2 was divided into four directions as shown in FIG. 7, and the side portion 2 was dropped while changing the direction so as to write a character 4 on the diagonal line.

When dropped from a height of 100 mm, it was effective to drop 6 times.
The heights of 120 mm and 140 mm were dropped 6 times and the bias was eliminated.
At a height of 160 mm, a dent was generated in the side portion 2 at one time.

以上、本発明の本実施形態について説明したが、本発明の範囲内で様々な変更が可能である。 Although the present embodiment of the present invention has been described above, various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention.

例えば、落下手段110のスライド板130を省略して、缶詰10の下面が接地面に平行に落下するよう、筒状、または、缶シュート状のガイド部材を設けてもよいし、図6に示すように、上方搬送コンベア120の下流側を上流側より上方に配置して適宜傾斜させて、プーリーの曲面に巻き込まれながら缶詰10の底面が接地面に平行(下方搬送コンベア140の搬送面に対し平行、または、重力方向に対し垂直)に落下するよう配置してもよい。
この場合、下方搬送コンベア140は、缶詰10が落下する箇所は重力方向に対し垂直に配置し、下流側のみ下方搬送コンベア140を上方に傾斜させるのが好ましい。
また、下方搬送コンベア140のベルトの下にアルミニウム合金板、または、ステンレス板などの堅い部材を配置したが、堅い部材を略して、堅い部材のプーリー141上に落下させるようにしてもよい。
その際、プーリー径はなるべく大きい方が、接地面が平坦に近くなるので好ましい。
あるいは、ベルトを堅いプラスチック製や金属製のベルトやチェーンに変えてもよい。
また、下方搬送コンベアを略して接地面としてもよい。
その際は、搬送性を考慮して、堅く滑りやすいスライド板を配置して、容器(缶詰)に衝撃を与えつつ滑走できるようにするのが好ましい。
その他、上方搬送コンベア120やスライド板130に缶詰10の横方向のガイドを設けてもよいし、下方搬送コンベア(140)にも缶詰10が落下の際に邪魔にならないよう、落下位置はやや広めに配置した横方向のガイドを設けてもよい。
ベルト幅も適宜設定してよい。
また、容器も円筒状の缶に限らず、角型容器であってもよいし、プラスチック製容器であってもよい。
角型容器の場合、側部2を下にして缶詰10を落下させる時は、側部2の頂点で当てるよう落下させるのは避け、広い面で当たるように落下させるとよい。
For example, the slide plate 130 of the dropping means 110 may be omitted, and a tubular or can chute-shaped guide member may be provided so that the lower surface of the can 10 falls parallel to the ground plane, and is shown in FIG. As described above, the downstream side of the upper transport conveyor 120 is arranged above the upstream side and tilted appropriately, and the bottom surface of the canning 10 is parallel to the ground plane while being caught in the curved surface of the pulley (relative to the transport surface of the lower transport conveyor 140). It may be arranged so as to fall in parallel or perpendicular to the direction of gravity.
In this case, it is preferable that the lower transfer conveyor 140 is arranged so that the place where the canned food 10 falls is perpendicular to the direction of gravity, and the lower transfer conveyor 140 is tilted upward only on the downstream side.
Further, although a rigid member such as an aluminum alloy plate or a stainless steel plate is arranged under the belt of the lower conveyor 140, the rigid member may be abbreviated and dropped onto the pulley 141 of the rigid member.
At that time, it is preferable that the pulley diameter is as large as possible because the ground contact surface becomes almost flat.
Alternatively, the belt may be replaced with a rigid plastic or metal belt or chain.
Further, the lower conveyor may be abbreviated as a ground plane.
In that case, it is preferable to arrange a rigid and slippery slide plate in consideration of transportability so that the container (canned food) can slide while giving an impact.
In addition, a lateral guide for the canning 10 may be provided on the upper conveyor 120 or the slide plate 130, and the drop position is slightly wider so that the canning 10 does not get in the way when the canning 10 is dropped on the lower conveyor (140). A lateral guide arranged in may be provided.
The belt width may also be set as appropriate.
Further, the container is not limited to a cylindrical can, and may be a square container or a plastic container.
In the case of a square container, when dropping the canned product 10 with the side portion 2 facing down, it is preferable to avoid dropping the canned product so that it hits at the apex of the side portion 2 and drops it so that it hits on a wide surface.
