Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an apparatus for transferring sliced meat into a tray.

A method for transferring sliced meat into a tray related to the present invention is disclosed, for example, in Patent Document 1 by the applicant. According to this method, a group of sliced meat for each pack, which is partially overlapped with the folding line in front and arranged in a scale shape and conveyed to the terminal end of the conveyor, falls from the terminal end of the conveyor, It is served on trays waiting below the end of the conveyor. At this time, in order to serve the group of sliced meat all at once while maintaining the posture of the group of sliced meat, when the group of sliced meat reaches the end of the conveyor, the end of the conveyor is relatively quickly retreated to drop the group of sliced meat into the tray. It is a configuration that allows

According to the method of Patent Document 1, although it may vary depending on the meat quality and meat temperature, if the thickness of the sliced meat exceeds 2 mm, it can be served on the tray in an orderly manner. The leading and trailing parts were sometimes disturbed at the time of falling. In order to solve this problem, the applicant proposed Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-172016. In this proposal, the group of sliced meat is transferred to a transfer belt formed narrower than the width of the inner bottom of the tray, and then at least one of the transfer belt and the tray is tilted so that the tip of the transfer belt is It describes a method of transferring a sliced meat group into a tray by retracting a transfer belt while maintaining a state in which the portion and the inner bottom of the tray are close to each other.

It should be noted that, as made known in the above proposal,
A moving plate supported by a supporting frame so as to move back and forth is hung around in the front-rear direction, and a part of the contact surface with the sliced meat is fixed to the supporting frame. A transfer belt configured to advance and retreat along with linear advance and retreat,
Although details are not described in the above proposal, for example, Patent Document 2 to Patent Document 4 specifically disclose the above.

According to the configuration of Patent Document 2, the transfer belt has a support plate material (corresponding to a "receiving plate" in the present invention) that is freely retractable and wound in a ring shape, and advances the support plate material, An object such as food is transferred onto the transfer belt on the upper surface side of the support plate material, and then the support plate material is retreated, whereby the object on the transfer belt is transferred to a desired position. The transfer belt is wound around the leading end and the trailing end of the support plate, and one end and the other end of the transfer belt are overlapped on the upper surface side of the support plate. It is sandwiched between a fixing member and a pressing plate installed on the main body (corresponding to the "machine frame" in the present invention) and fixed to the transfer main body by a plurality of fixing screws.

In Patent Document 3, a belt (corresponding to a "transfer belt" according to the present invention) around which a moving plate (corresponding to a "receiving plate" according to the present invention) is fixed has a recessed part and a convex part where both ends are overlapped. A configuration is described in which the parts are sandwiched and fixed from above and below by fixtures to which the parts are fitted, and are connected and fixed by connecting tools such as bolts. Further, in Patent Document 4, a sheet (corresponding to a "transfer belt" in the present invention) around which a slider (corresponding to the "receiving plate" in the present invention) is sandwiched between two clamping members. There is described an example in which a method of fixing both ends with clamp levers as stoppers and fixing the intermediate portions of both clamping members with toggle clamps as stoppers is used in a relatively large apparatus.

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2019-64808 JP 2007-222153 A JP 2008-184265 A Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2017-214108

When viewed from the side in the stacking direction, the group of sliced meats in which the sliced meat is stacked in a scale-like manner with partially overlapping slices is seen from the side in the stacking direction. It can be said that the thickness is thin. According to the method of Patent Document 1, the end portion of the conveyor is retracted relatively quickly, and the thin head portion of the group of sliced meat is vigorously peeled off from the conveyor, thereby preventing the group of sliced meat from falling. begin. Immediately before being peeled off, the group of sliced meat sticks to the extent that it does not slide down even if the conveyor is tilted, for example, 30 degrees from the horizontal, and the part that has started to be peeled falls in the air without being guided by anything. becomes. For this reason, when the elasticity of the folding line portion at the top of the sliced meat group is large, the sliced meat is peeled off from the conveyor and dropped while maintaining its shape, so that it is less likely to be disturbed. However, if the elasticity of the fold line at the top of the sliced meat is small due to thin slices, etc., the adhesive strength will be lost and the peeling from the conveyor will vary, and the shape of the top part will not be maintained and the meat will fall. Since it comes into contact with the tray as it moves, it sometimes causes turbulence, especially at the beginning.

According to the proposal of Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-172016 by the applicant, the leading portion of the sliced meat group that has begun to be transferred from the transfer belt to the tray is almost continuously removed from the transfer belt. contact the insole. Therefore, even if the thickness of the sliced meat becomes thin, the whole sliced meat group including the leading portion and the trailing portion in the stacking direction of the sliced meat is less likely to be disturbed, and can be transferred to the tray in an orderly manner. However, if the tip of the transfer belt, which is biased by an elastic force such as a spring, is brought into contact with the inner bottom of the tray to follow the tray, the foamed resin tray may be damaged or cracked. To avoid this, the tip of the transfer belt should be brought into contact with the inner bottom of the tray with a weak force that does not damage or crack the inner bottom of the tray. It is necessary to follow the shape of Although these can be realized by controlling the pressure and position of the leading end of the transfer belt by combining servo motors and sensors, the mechanism becomes complicated. Such a mechanism has problems such as difficulty in maintenance and daily cleaning of the machine and an increase in the cost of the machine.

A portion such as the transfer belt that comes into contact with food or a portion close thereto must be cleaned every day to keep it clean. Once configured, the transfer belt must be removed to clean both sides of the transfer belt and the support plate material (or "moving plate" and "slider"). According to the configurations disclosed in Patent Documents 2 to 4, the transfer belt can be removed simply by removing or loosening screws. However, when attaching the transfer belt, it is necessary to reproduce the tension of the transfer belt and the position in the width direction in substantially the same manner in order to maintain the transfer function. It does not describe how to In practice, it is particularly difficult to reproduce the degree of tension, and the degree of difficulty in reproducing the degree of tension is particularly high with a relatively large transfer belt as in Patent Document 4.

In stores such as grocery stores, products in which sliced meats are piled up like scales on a tray are part of the product value because the sliced meats are arranged in an orderly manner. However, automation is required for production efficiency and sanitation. An object of the present invention is to transfer a group of sliced meat to a tray in an orderly manner by a simple method and mechanism even if the thickness of the sliced meat is thin, and to reproduce the tension of the transfer belt and attach/detach the transfer belt.

An embodiment of a sliced meat transfer apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 17. FIG.

Sliced meat obtained by slicing pork loin as a raw material by a meat slicer (not shown) is folded by a folding means (not shown) so as to have a folding line in a direction orthogonal to the conveying direction of the conveyer 1, It is placed on the conveyer 1 with the folding line facing the downstream side of the conveyer 1 . The thickness of sliced meat to be folded is 1mm to 2.5mm, which occupies most of the market, and is used for shabu-shabu.

After the folded and placed sliced meat m is sent to the downstream side by the transport conveyor 1 by a predetermined movement amount, the succeeding sliced meat m is placed in a scale shape so as to partially overlap the preceding sliced meat m. be. When this process is repeated up to the end of the predetermined number of pieces of sliced meat m to be served on one tray 3, the sliced meat group M is placed on the transport conveyor 1 as shown in FIG.

The meat slicer and the folding means place two rows of sliced meat m in parallel on the conveyor 1, but it is also possible to place one row of sliced meat m. Between two rows or one row of the sliced meat group M and the following sliced meat group M, a space is provided by feeding the conveying conveyor 1 so as to clearly demarcate the sliced meat group M, and this is repeated to form the sliced meat group. M is conveyed to the terminal end of the conveyer 1 . In the present embodiment, two rows of sliced meat groups M are used for explanation.

In addition, the folding means can change the folding position of the sliced meat. By setting the folding position to be outside the sliced meat, it is possible to obtain a scaly sliced meat group M1 of the unfolded sliced meat m1, but the sliced meat m1 is often folded. Since it is thicker than the sliced meat m and has greater elasticity, it is less likely to be disturbed during transfer. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the sliced meat group M made up of the folded sliced meat m will be used for explanation. For reference, the unfolded sliced meat m1 is often 3 mm or more thick and is used for ginger-grilled meat, pork cutlet, and the like.

The transport conveyor 1 is gently inclined so that the terminal portion descends toward the downstream side, and as indicated by the phantom lines in FIG. A shuttle conveyor (illustration of a driving part and the like is omitted) that advances and retreats by a predetermined distance in the horizontal direction. In addition, the inclination of the transfer conveyor 1 in FIG. 4 is about 21 degrees.

Transfer devices 10, 10 are provided symmetrically below the terminal end of the transport conveyor 1, with the leading ends of the receiving plates 21 facing each other.

Regarding the transfer device 10, as shown in FIG. 11, the horizontal direction in which the receiving plate 21 advances to the position shown in FIG. 11 and retreats to the position shown in FIG. The lower side will be described as the downstream side. The transfer device 10 includes a machine frame 11, a receiving plate 21, a transfer belt 31 wound around the receiving plate 21, and a lower end portion of the transfer belt 31 on the lower surface of the receiving plate 21 that extends and retracts linearly. A side holding member 41 and an interlocking means 51 for advancing and retracting the receiving plate 21 and the lower holding member 41 in association with each other are provided.

As shown in FIG. 11, the machine frame 11 includes side plates 12, 12; an upstream plate member 15 extending parallel to the downstream plate member 13 on the upstream side of the assembly member 14; and an upper holding member locking portion 16 having a The assembling member 14 is a plate material having a U-shaped cross section, and is provided with an assembling bolt or the like so as to be detachably assembled to the machine frame of the transport conveyor 1 .

The receiving plate 21 is a thin plate made of stainless steel, and on the downstream side, receiving plate sliders 23, 23 through which receiving plate guide rods 22 that are installed on the side plates 12, 12 are inserted are fixed, and on the upstream side, receiving plate rails. It is slidably supported by 24 and is movable in the extending and retracting directions. The leading end of the receiving plate 21 in the advance direction is a rounded end bent so as to be overlapped on the lower surface side, and is designed to be slidably contactable with the transfer belt 31 . Further, the rear end of the receiving plate 21 in the advance direction is bent downward by approximately 45 degrees so that the edge of the rear end of the receiving plate 21 does not come into contact with the transfer belt 31 on the upper surface side of the receiving plate 21 . .

The transfer belt 31 is folded back at the tip of the receiving plate 21 from the upper surface of the receiving plate 21 and looped around the lower surface of the receiving plate 21 .
Further, as shown in FIG. 16, both ends of the transfer belt 31 are folded back at the leading ends thereof so that a cylindrical space surrounded by the transfer belt 31 is formed. is glued to One of the cylindrical spaces formed at both ends is the upper surface side of the receiving plate 21 , and the upper engaging portion 32 that can be engaged and disengaged with the upper holding member (“member” in the claims) 34 , and the other is the lower surface side of the receiving plate 21 . to form a lower engaging portion 33 that can be engaged with and disengaged from the lower holding member 41 .

The lower holding member 41 is a thin plate made of stainless steel (a “holding plate member” in the claims) that is movable in the retracting direction while maintaining a gap of approximately 3 mm from the lower surface of the receiving plate 21 . , lower holding member sliders 43, 43 through which lower holding member guide rods 42, which are installed on the side plates 12, 12 are inserted, are fixed, and the upstream side is slidably supported by lower holding member rails 44. there is The lower holding member rail 44 is rotatably supported by the upstream plate member 15 by the rail portion fulcrum pins 18 and 18, and is fixed to the supporting position of the lower holding member 41 by the rail portion fixing pins 19 and 19. Liberation is free. The rail portion fixing pins 19, 19 in this embodiment are index plungers, and the lower holding member rail 44 can be easily fixed to and released from the support position simply by operating the knob of the index plunger.

When the lower holding member rail 44 is released from the supporting position, the lower holding member 41 can be inserted into the lower engaging portion 33 from its upstream side. The lower holding member 41 is formed with cutouts that restrict the outside of the cylindrical portion of the lower engaging portion 33 by approximately 1 mm at each end and hold the lower engaging portion 33 so that it is difficult to come off. The lower engaging portion 33 is held in a substantially fixed position by hooking it on the notch while slightly deforming both ends, and it is easy to attach and detach.

The upper holding member 34 is a round bar (a “holding bar” in the claims) that can be inserted into the upper engaging portion 32 and has a stepped portion, and is approximately 1 mm from both ends of the cylindrical portion of the upper engaging portion 32 . The diameter of the outer side is large, and when the transfer belt 31 is attached, both ends of the cylindrical portion are guided by the steps of the diameter and held in a substantially fixed position. The outer ends of the larger diameter have smaller diameters, and the upper holding member 34 is positioned with respect to the upper holding member engaging portion 16 within a range having a gap of approximately 0.5 mm at each end, and the upper holding member fixing pin ( ("Member" in the claims) 17, 17. The upper holding member fixing pins 17, 17 in this embodiment are index plungers, and the upper holding member 34 can be easily attached/detached to/from the upper holding member engaging portion 16 only by operating the knob of the index plunger. The position of the belt 31 in the width direction is sufficiently reproduced.

When attaching the transfer belt 31, after the lower engagement portion 33 of the transfer belt 31 is attached to the lower holding member 41, the lower holding member rail 44 is fixed to the supporting position and the lower holding member is mounted. 41 is supported, the transfer belt 31 is folded back at the front end of the receiving plate 21 from the lower surface of the receiving plate 21 and looped around the upper surface of the receiving plate 21 . Next, after the upper holding member 34 is inserted into the upper engaging portion 32 , the upper holding member 34 is fixed such that the transfer belt 31 is wound around the cylindrical portion of the upper holding member engaging portion 16 . According to this procedure, the positions of the both end portions of the transfer belt 31 are substantially the same as before removal, and the tension of the transfer belt 31 is substantially the same as before removal. When removing the transfer belt 31, the above procedure should be reversed.

Next, the interlocking means 51 will be described. A timing belt 53, which is wound around timing pulleys 52, 52 rotatably supported by the receiving plate sliders 23, 23, is a timing belt fixing body in which a part of the timing belt 53 is fixed to a substantially central portion of the receiving plate guide rod 22. 54. The timing belt connecting body 55 through which the lower holding member guide rod 42 is inserted is rotatably sandwiched between the lower holding member sliders 43 , 43 , and the timing belt 53 extends from the timing belt fixed body 54 in both directions of extension and retraction. A timing belt 53 is fixed at a position having substantially equal lengths.

According to the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 17, when the receiving plate 21 is moved a distance S with respect to the machine frame 11 by the air cylinder (not shown), the timing belt 53 is passed through the lower side. Since the holding member 41 is moved in the same direction with respect to the receiving plate 21 by the same distance S, the lower holding member 41 is moved with respect to the machine frame 11 by a distance 2S. That is, since the lower holding member 41 is moved in the same direction at twice the speed of the receiving plate 21, the interlocking means 51 allows the transfer belt 31 to be stretched around the receiving plate 21 without slack. Always in sliding contact with the tip.

As described above, it is easy to attach and detach the transfer device 10 and the transfer belt 31 during cleaning after the work is completed, and adjustment of the tension is not required when attaching the transfer belt 31 after cleaning. . It should be noted that the transfer belt 31 may need to be tensioned due to deterioration over time due to use or replacement due to deterioration or breakage. At this time, by loosening the bolt fixing the upper holding member locking portion 16 and rotating it in the circumferential direction in FIG. can be adjusted to the appropriate tension.

A tray transfer device 2 for transferring the trays 3 in a direction orthogonal to the transfer direction of the transfer conveyor 1 is provided below the receiving plate 21 in the transfer device 10 configured as described above. The tray 3 is transferred to a suitable position and lifted by the tray transfer device 2 so that the group of sliced meat M is transferred to substantially the center of the tray in the transfer direction. In addition, the tray transfer device 2 transfers one of the corresponding trays 3, 3 in the two rows of sliced meat groups M, M to a suitable position, and then the transfer operation of the tray transfer device 2 does not affect the transfer operation. lift up to Then, by transferring the other to a suitable position and lifting it, both of the trays 3, 3 corresponding to the two rows of sliced meat groups M, M are transferred to their respective suitable positions.

A transfer method in this embodiment of the transfer apparatus configured as described above will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the terminal end of the conveyer 1 is retracted as shown in FIG. The gap between the lower surface of the end portion of the conveyer 1 and the transfer belt 31 on the upper surface of the receiving plate 21 is approximately 2 mm. are successively transferred while being in contact with the transfer belt 31 on the upper surface of the receiving plate 21, they are placed on the transfer belt 31 in an orderly manner while suppressing disorder. Also, at this time, the trays 3, 3 are transferred to suitable positions below the receiving plates 21, 21 by the tray transfer device 2 and lifted up.

Next, the receiving plate 21 is withdrawn along the direction perpendicular to the direction in which the sliced meat m is stacked. As described above, since the transfer belt 31 is always in sliding contact with the tip of the receiving plate 21 without slack, the transfer belt 31 on the upper surface of the receiving plate 21 does not change in position relative to the lower surface of the group of sliced meat M. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the group of sliced meat M begins to drop from the side portion in the stacking direction.

Here, in FIG. 10 when the sliced meat group M is viewed from the side in the overlapping direction, the number of overlapping slices of meat is approximately 4 at the beginning (left end in FIG. 10) and at the end (Fig. 10), the apparent thickness is reduced to two. More specifically, the apparent thickness of the central portion of the sliced meat group M is as small as three slices or as large as six slices depending on the degree of overlapping of the sliced meats m. The apparent thickness is about 2 slices of meat, and the apparent thickness of the tail portion is 2 slices or 1 slice depending on the folding position.

For reference, in the sliced meat group M1 composed of the unfolded sliced meat m1, the apparent thickness of the central portion is about 2 to 4 slices of meat, and the thickness of the leading and trailing portions is 1 slice of meat. It's a piece.

According to the method of Patent Literature 1, the leading folding line portions in the stacking direction of the sliced meat group M are peeled off from the conveyer substantially at the same time. As the thickness of the sliced meat becomes thinner, the elasticity of the folding line portion becomes smaller, so that the peeling of the folding line portion, which adheres to the conveyer to some extent, varies. In addition, even when the leading portion is dropped and contacts the tray, it is difficult to keep the folding line portion in a straight shape due to its low elasticity. For these reasons, it is difficult to orderly transfer the sliced meat group M of thin sliced meat, especially the head portion, to the tray.

In this embodiment, since the sliced meat groups M begin to fall from the side portions, the head portion and tail portion in the stacking direction are separated from the transfer belt 31 in the direction perpendicular to the stacking direction (direction along the folding line). It falls while being peeled off one by one. Therefore, even if the thickness of the sliced meat becomes thin, the folding line portion at the front, which is particularly conspicuous, tends to maintain a linear shape, and the whole sliced meat group M is transferred to the tray in an orderly manner.

In this embodiment, the end portion of the transfer conveyor 1, which is a shuttle conveyor, is retracted so that the sliced meat group M is placed on the transfer belt 31. However, for example, the end portion of the transfer conveyor is always set at a fixed position. The whole transfer device 10 with the receiving plate 21 advanced is conveyed by the conveyer so that the group of sliced meat M is transferred onto the transfer belt 31 in relation to the feeding at the terminal end of the conveyer. You can move along the direction.

In this embodiment, the tray transfer device 2 transfers the tray 3 to a suitable position, but the tray transfer device always transfers the tray 3 to the same position and moves the transfer device 10 to a suitable position with respect to the tray 3. may

In the present invention, the device for transferring the group of sliced meats from the transfer belt 31 to the tray 3 in an orderly manner is realized by a simple mechanism combining linear motions as in the above-described embodiment. It is easy to maintain and clean the machine every day, and the cost of the machine can be reduced.

The transfer device 10 according to the present invention is particularly useful for transferring sliced meat groups stacked like scales, which are soft and easily disturbed in posture and shape when transferred manually, as in the present embodiment. However, the items to be transferred are not limited. In addition, the material and shape of each part can be appropriately changed as long as the functional requirements are satisfied.
