Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention relates to a rice feeding device for making rice balls.

"Prior Art" Conventionally, a device for feeding rice to a triangular rice grip forming machine has been developed. However, the rice is fed into a triangular cylinder surrounded by three vertical descending belts, measured using the upper and lower measuring shutters, the upper measuring shutter is closed, the lower measuring shutter is opened, and the weighed and formed rice is transferred to the rice-gripping intermittent delivery device. The rice was pushed into the molded rice filling frame using two belts. Therefore, the rice in the triangular cylinder above the upper measuring shutter tends to leak out from between the belts and scatter due to the pressure, and since the weighed and formed rice under the measuring shutter is pushed downward by two belts, the formed rice is It was easy to collapse and had a complicated mechanism (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 192559/1983).

``Problems to be solved by the invention'' This invention has a simple mechanism, prevents rice from leaking and scattering, and feeds triangular shaped rice into the shaped rice filling frame of the rice shaker delivery device without losing its shape. It is intended to obtain equipment.

``Means for solving the problem'' This proposal provides a rice feeding belt conveyor inside the rice storage groove provided in the machine frame, and a V-shaped rice forming frame on the upright surface provided below the end roller of the conveyor. Protruding,
Rice pusher V where the V-shaped inner surface touches the V-shaped upper edge of the same frame
A triangular groove roller is provided to form a triangular path by the inner surface and the detour belt of the end roller, a food guide groove roller is provided above the roller, and an opening/closing shutter is provided directly below the forming frame. It is constituted by a rice supply device for producing rice squeezed rice, which is provided with a rice squeezed intermittent delivery device in which a triangular shaped rice stuffing frame is disposed through the rice squeezed rice filling frame.

``Function'' Therefore, when rice is put into the rice storage groove, the rice is moved by the rice feeding belt conveyor toward the end roller of the conveyor, and when it approaches the roller, the belt of the conveyor and the rice guide groove move. It is guided by the V-shaped inner surface of the V-shaped roller and formed into a nearly triangular shape, and is further formed into a triangular shape by the next rice-pushing V-shaped groove roller.
The rice passes through the letter-shaped rice forming frame and is stuffed into the triangular shaped rice stuffing frame below, and in that state, the shutter between the stuffing frame and the V-shaped rice forming frame is closed, and in that state, the rice-gripping intermittent delivery device is operated to carry out the stuffing frame, move the next stuffing frame directly below the forming frame, stop, and then repeat the operation of opening the shutter.

Embodiment A rice supply conveyor 13 is provided at the upper part of the machine frame 1, and a rice breaking roller 14 is supported at the upper end of the conveyor 13. Immediately below the terminal end of the conveyor 13, upright parallel plates 15, 15 are provided, and a rice storage groove 2 is formed between the plates 15, 15. Inside the groove 2, a food feeding belt conveyor 3 is provided as shown in FIG. 1, and the belt 3' of the conveyor 3 is in contact with the inner surfaces of the parallel plates 15, 15. Then, an upright surface 5 is formed directly below the belt 3' that bypasses the end roller 4,
A V-shaped rice forming frame 6 is provided protrudingly from the lower part of the upright surface 5. The inner surface of the frame 6 is formed into a triangular upright short cylinder shape, and an upwardly directed blade surface 7' is formed on the upper edge 7 of the V-shaped outer periphery of the frame 6. The V-shaped inner surface 8' and the end roller are in contact with each other, and both end surfaces of the roller 8 are in contact with the inner surfaces of the upright parallel plates 15, 15, and the roller 8 is supported by a rotating shaft 16. A triangular shaped path 17 (FIG. 5) is formed by the four detour belts 3'. Diagonally above the rice pushing V-shaped groove roller 8, a rice guide groove roller 9 is supported by a rotating shaft 18 in contact with the inner surfaces of the parallel plates 15, 15. are rotated in the same direction at the same rotational speed by gears 20 and 21 that mesh with each other via an intermediate gear 19 on the outside of the parallel plate 15. Although the outer dimensions of both rollers 8 and 9 are the same, it is preferable to form rice guide grooves or protrusions 8'' on the inner surface of the rice pushing V-shaped groove roller 8 (Fig. 4). Immediately below the forming frame 6, there is provided an intermittent rice-gripping delivery device 12 in which a triangular shaped rice stuffing frame 11 is placed via an opening/closing shutter 10.This delivery device 12 has an intermittent rotating disc 12' as shown in FIG. , triangular through holes 1 are formed in the disc 12' by the lower surface pedestal 12'' and the unloading notch 12 at every 45 degree opening angle.
1' is drilled and the above-mentioned stuffing frame 11 is inserted through the through hole 11'.
is formed. The above-mentioned unloading device 12 is the above-mentioned disk 1
The packing frame 11 is not limited to a conveyor type but may be provided with the stuffing frame 11. A through hole is bored in one of the upright parallel plates 15, 15 in the middle above the conveyor 3, and through the through hole, the black color on the inner surface of the other parallel plate 15 is sensed by a phototube 22, and the inside of the receiving groove 2 is detected. It is possible to detect the presence or absence of rice. In addition, 23 in the figure is a starting end rotation roller of the food feeding belt conveyor 3, 24 is an intermediate belt guide roller, 25 is a reciprocating rotation axis of the opening/closing shutter 10, 26 in FIG. 3 is a lifting frame, 27 is a lift shaft, 28 is a rod for inserting ingredients into the stuffing frame 11, 29 is a hole for inserting pickled plums and other ingredients, 30 is a rod for pushing out ingredients, 31 is a presser plate for stacking the center part of the stuffed rice, and 32 is a flat plate. Reference numeral 33 denotes a rice-grip pushing plate, 34 a rice-grip delivery conveyor, and 35 a rice-grip.

``Effects'' Since the present invention is constructed as described above, the rice stored in the rice storage groove 2 is moved through the rice feeding belt conveyor 3 in the same groove 2 to the terminal roller 4, while the rice is transferred to the rice guide groove. The approximate shape of the triangular rice is formed by the roller 9, and the V-shape of the same roller 8 is formed by the V-shaped groove roller 8 into the triangular short cylinder formed by the upright surface 5 and the V-shaped rice forming frame 6. With the inner surface 8' in contact with the V-shaped upper edge 7 of the molding frame 6, the molding frame 6 is pushed through the triangle forming path 17 to be formed into a triangular shape. After the rice is stuffed into the stuffing frame 11, the top surface of the stuffed rice is cut horizontally by the shutter 10, and in this state the stuffed rice can be carried out by the carrying-out device 12. Leakage and scattering is prevented, and the triangular shaped rice can be smoothly packed into the stuffing frame 11 of the carrying out device 12 without losing its shape.
