Abstract

PURPOSE:To store many remains in a receiver box without making treated remains bulky by sending a container downward with crushing it by a crushing part by a driving conveyor and roughening the outer peripheral surface of each disk of a shear part provided downward. CONSTITUTION:When the container 23 such as an empty can, a spent cup of paper or synthetic resin, etc., is charged from an input port 2, it falls between both conveyors 7, 7 and is crushed in sequence as it is sent downward. When it reaches the lowest end, it is flattened and pushed out to the shear part 4 as it is. Since right and left disks 17, 18 make a V shape in the shear part 4 and the outer peripheral surface makes a rough surface 19, the flattened container 23 is bitten between both disks 17, 18 as it is sent out vertically and at the same time receives shearing force and is cut in sequence, and the chips fall into the lower receiver box 5.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a container processing device for crushing and cutting into small pieces generally disposable containers such as empty cans, paper or synthetic resin pots.

[Conventional technology]

As a conventional device of this kind, for example, Utility Model Application No. 51-51681
No. 61-39920, etc., and both techniques involve tilting a movable plate from a parallel state with respect to a fixed plate, so that the container can be held in both directions when opened. It crushes the container by putting it between the plates and closing it.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The device based on the above technology simply crushes containers such as empty cans, and after crushing them with a fixed plate and a movable plate, the crushed container falls downward under its own weight, and the container is stored in a box or the like and placed. However, since the receiver is simply crushed, it is often bulky inside the box, especially when processing not only empty cans but also paper and synthetic resin cups, etc., due to the nature of the material. In some cases, the thickness of the stone was restored to be slightly thicker than that of the original, and even the remains after processing were bulky.

The present invention was developed based on further research, with the aim of making it possible to store a large number of debris in a box without the debris becoming too bulky after processing.

[Means to solve the problem]

The solution according to the present invention consists of a pair of conveyors that are opened and erected in a figure 7 shape, and a crushing portion in which opposing surfaces of both conveyors are driven to transfer each other from above to downward; A plurality of disks are placed at intervals on each rotating shaft parallel to the support shaft of the conveyor, and the left and right opposing disks are fitted so that their outer circular parts overlap each other, from top to bottom at the overlapping portion of both disks. It consists of a rotating shearing section, and the outer circumferential surface of each disk is formed into an uneven rough surface.

[For production]

Since the containers are crushed by a conveyor arranged in a figure 7 shape, the sandwiched containers are guided downward and crushed one after another, and are forcibly discharged downward by both conveyors. Since the outer circumferential surface of each disc of the shearing section provided below is a rough surface, it can reliably bite into both discs and reliably cut the crushed container. In addition, since shearing is performed using multiple disks, unlike simply cutting with a knife, the shearing stress acts as a further crushing force, and the debris is thinner and finer, making it less bulky, making it possible to process a large number of containers. It can be accommodated by

〔Example〕

To explain the embodiment according to the present invention in detail, as shown in FIG. , a shearing section 4 is provided at the bottom, a box 5 is provided at the bottom that can be pulled out, and a motor 6 with a speed reducer for driving the crushing section 3 and the shearing section 4 is provided.

The crushing section 3 is constructed by standing up a pair of conveyors 7.7 in a figure 7 shape, that is, the upper part between the two conveyors 7.7 is wide and the lower part gradually becomes narrower. The input port 2 is opposite to the upper part between the conveyors 7 and 7, and the conveyor 7 has an upper support shaft 8 and a lower support shaft 9, as shown in FIG.
a pair of sprockets 10, 10, 11, 11, respectively.
is fitted, two endless chains 12.12 are stretched, and square bar-shaped slats 13 made of metal or wood are arranged in a row with almost no gaps between the left and right endless chains 12.12. Furthermore, upper and lower supporting pieces 1 each have a guide 14 that supports the endless chain 12 from the backside and prevents it from loosening on opposing sides of both conveyors 7.7, and are loosely fitted to the upper and lower supporting shafts 8.9.
5.15.

As shown in FIG. 3, the shearing section 4 includes a plurality of disks 17... , 18...
At the same time, the left and right discs 17.18 facing each other are arranged so as to slightly overlap each other with their outer circular parts almost touching each other, and each disc 17.1
The outer peripheral surface of 8 is formed into a rough surface 19 having unevenness.

As shown in FIG.
The transmission is transmitted to the lower support shaft 9 by a belt 20, and chains 2 are connected between the lower support shaft 9 and the rotating shaft 16 of the shearing section 4 directly below it, and between the other support shaft 9 and the rotating shaft 16 directly below it.
Multiply by 1.21 and connect both left and right rotating shafts 16.16 to spur gear 2.
2 and 22, and the two conveyors 7.7 are moved downwards as shown by arrow a from the opposing surfaces of both conveyors 7.7, and the left and right disks 17.18 are moved in the direction of arrow In other words, the parts that overlap each other are configured to rotate from top to bottom.

Therefore, if a container 23 such as an empty can, used paper or synthetic resin cup is inputted from the input port 2, both conveyors 7.
7, and is sequentially crushed as it is sent downward, and when it reaches the lowest end, it is flattened and sent directly onto the shearing section 3. In the shearing section 3, left and right disks 17. 18 is V-shaped, and the outer peripheral surface is rough 1
9, the flattened container 23 is fed vertically and is bitten between the same discs 17 and 18, and is simultaneously cut by shearing force, and the scraps are transferred to the lower receiver inside the box 5. It is something that falls.

〔Effect of the invention〕

In the container processing device for empty cans and the like according to the present invention, the container is crushed and sent downward by the crushing section of the driven conveyor, and the flattened container is kept vertical to the shearing section provided below. will be reliably supplied. In addition, the shearing part is provided by overlapping the left and right discs, and the outer peripheral surface is roughened, so the flattened container can be inserted between the two discs while maintaining its vertical position, and the shearing force can be reliably applied. It can be cut by receiving the Since the receiver is flattened and cut into small pieces, it is possible to process and store a large number of containers in the box. It is stored in such a way that the condition is maintained securely.
