DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a can aligning device for aligning cans in a predetermined pattern in a barretizer or the like.

近年、需要の増加と経費節減のため、パレツト
上に多数段に缶を積上げて移送する方式が特に空
缶移送の場合には多く用いられている。
In recent years, due to increased demand and cost savings, a method of stacking cans in multiple stages on a pallet and transporting them has been widely used, especially when transporting empty cans.

このとき、パレツト上の缶は工程上及び管理上
の必要から、同数だけ同一パターンに整列するこ
とが望ましい。そして、1パレツト当りの積付缶
数を最大にするためには、隣接する缶列と半缶
分、互いにずれたいわゆる千鳥型に整列すること
が必要となる。
At this time, it is desirable for the same number of cans on the pallet to be arranged in the same pattern due to process and management requirements. In order to maximize the number of cans stacked per pallet, it is necessary to arrange the cans in a so-called staggered pattern, with adjacent rows of cans offset by half a can.

このため、パレタイザーまで、1列または2列
で移送されてくる空缶を完全な千鳥型缶列に整列
させるための工程が設けられる。
For this reason, a process is provided for arranging the empty cans that are transferred in one or two rows to the palletizer into a complete staggered can row.

Conventionally, empty cans have been aligned using a turret method or manually.

頼つているのが現実であつた。
In the turret method, empty cans transferred in one or two rows from the previous process are divided into multiple rows by a guide.
This method uses multiple turrets to arrange the cans in a staggered pattern. Although this method works well if the same type of cans are always arranged, depending on the situation, the types of cans to be arranged may be changed frequently. When it is necessary, that is, when using it on a line where there are many mold changes, there are many parts that must be replaced in response to changes in can type, and the associated production costs and time required for mold changes are high. However, there are problems such as an increase in the number of adjustment points, and cases in which perfect alignment is often not achieved, requiring one person to be on hand at all times for corrections, and relying on manual methods. The reality was that there was.

The empty cans that have been transferred in one line on the conveyor from the previous process are evenly distributed into two lines by a can sorting device installed at the exit of the conveyor.
The empty cans are supplied to a conveyor 37 via empty can chutes 35 and 36. Empty cans that have entered the can supply section A by the conveyor 37 and are guided by the side guides 10 and 11 enter the can alignment section as they are when there are no empty cans in the can alignment section B initially. However, when the cans entering the can alignment section are counted by the counter sensors 6 and 7 and a predetermined number of cans is reached, the can alignment section B is full and empty cans begin to accumulate in the can supply section A, the can stoppers 1 and 2 are activated. The stopper pads 1 3 and 2 3 move the empty can at the beginning of the can supply section to the center guide 39.
Press and hold. As will be described later, when the can stops 1 and 2 operate, empty cans in the can alignment section B are sent to the accumulation conveyor, but even if there are no empty cans in the can alignment section B, the can stoppers 1 and 2 operate.
2 is in operation, empty cans are prevented from entering the can alignment section. As will be described later, the two rows of empty cans supplied to the can alignment section B are aligned in a state shifted by the radius from each other, so the empty cans at the beginning of the can supply section are also stopped in a state shifted by the radius. , is held by can stops 1, 2 located there.
Therefore, after that, the empty cans that have entered the can supply section A form two rows of empty cans on the conveyor 37 that are shifted by the radius of the cans. Can detection sensor 12,
13 continuously detects empty cans, the conveyor 37
This means that a row of cans as long as the length of the can alignment device is formed on the top. Therefore, the can stoppers 1 and 2 are opened by the detection signals of the sensors 12 and 13, and the 2
The rows of cans enter the alignment device along the feed plate 16. At this time, counter sensors 6 and 7, such as non-contact proximity switches, count the number of empty cans that enter, and when a predetermined number is reached, actuate can stoppers 1 and 2 to prevent empty cans from entering the alignment device. Ru. In this state, the empty can example is the 4th one.
As shown in the figure, on both sides of the feed plate 16,
Empty can rows D and E are shifted by a predetermined number by the radius of the can.

When the advance of the row of cans is stopped by the operation of the can stops 1 and 2, the motor 25 makes one revolution, is decelerated by the gears 23 and 24, and rotates the shaft 20 by 60 degrees in the direction of the arrow in FIG. do. Due to the rotation of the feed plate 16, the row of empty cans on the conveyor 37 is pushed out in a direction perpendicular to the feed plate 16, transferred onto the accumulation conveyor 38, hits the stop plate 27, and stops. At this time, in the front row of empty cans, the rightmost can in FIG.
0 and is aligned and stopped along the stop plate 27 in a state shifted from the guide 41 by the radius of the can. The row of cans behind the feed plate 27 has its right end can guided by a guide 41 provided on an extension of the second end guide 26.
The next feed plate 27 pushes it onto the accumulation conveyor 38. Therefore, the rear row of empty cans is shifted from the front row of empty cans by the radius of the cans to the right in FIG.
7, it enters and stops between the empty cans of the previously stopped empty can row, and a part of the staggered arrangement is reliably formed. The row of cans behind the feed plate is pushed out and transferred onto the accumulation conveyor 38 by the next feed plate, but since the previous row of empty cans has stopped at the stop plate 27, It enters and stops between empty cans in the row of empty cans, forming part of a staggered arrangement. Next, the stop plate 27 is swung around the shaft 29 by the air cylinder 33 and is transported on the accumulation conveyor 38.
