Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention relates to the structure of the loading door of a measuring rice jug.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in a measuring rice jug, a loading door having a shutter with side walls on both sides is pivotally attached to an opening provided in the upper part of the rice jug body by a hinge at the lower part thereof so as to be rotatable at a predetermined angle. Rice is put in from the shooter and stored, and a measuring mechanism is operated by operating a measuring lever to discharge a predetermined amount of rice into a container provided at the bottom.

Incidentally, in recent years, various types of measuring rice jugs have been proposed, such as one that is built into the side of a kitchen unit in a vertically elongated structure, or one that is a single item with a vertically elongated structure that can be stored in a narrow space.

However, in the case of the vertically structured small-volume rice bin, it is necessary to ensure sufficient rice storage capacity.
The rice input port, that is, the input door has a small structure, and there is no room for placing the tip of the rice bag when inputting rice, making it difficult to perform the rice input operation.

Therefore, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 56-131149 proposes a system in which a rail is provided on the input hopper (input door), and a slide hopper is provided on the rail so as to be slidable in the vertical direction, thereby eliminating the above-mentioned drawbacks.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, in the proposed example, the structure is not only complicated because of the provision of the rail, but also rice grains get on the rail part, making it difficult for the slide hopper to operate smoothly. Another disadvantage is that when the tip of the rice bag is placed on the slide hopper, the slide hopper may be thrown into the rice bag.

The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has a loading door having a shutter with side walls on both sides in an opening provided in the upper part of the rice bin body, and a hinge at the lower part of the loading door. A loading door for a weighing rice bin which is pivotably mounted to be rotatable at an angle, wherein a shutter auxiliary plate is attached to the upper end of the shutter so as to be rotatable at a predetermined angle in the direction of rotation of the loading door. It has a door structure.

(Function) With the above configuration, the input door is rotated and the shooter auxiliary plate is rotated, making it as if the shooter were extended, and the tip of the rice bag is placed on the shooter auxiliary plate to release the rice. can be input.

(Example) Fig. 1 shows a weighing rice jug with a loading door according to the present invention installed on one side of a kitchen unit, where 1 is the kitchen unit, 3 is the top plate, and 4 is one side of the kitchen unit 1. This is the main body of the measuring rice jug built into the side.

An opening 5 is provided between the upper part of the front plate 2 and the lower surface of the top plate 3 of the measuring rice jug main body 4, and a loading door 6 is attached to this opening 5 so that the lower surface thereof can be rotated by a predetermined angle with a hinge. I'm wearing it.

The input door 6 roughly includes a door body 7 and a shutter 1.
1 and a shooter auxiliary plate 18.

The door main body 7 can be opened and closed by a hinge 8 at the center lower edge of the opening 5 of the front plate 2, and can be rotated by a handle (not shown) as shown by arrow A in FIG. The main body 7 is made of synthetic resin, and two positioning plates 9 and four bosses 10 having screw holes are provided on both sides of the back surface thereof.

The shooter 11 has substantially triangular side walls 14 on both sides, and one end of the bottom plate 12 slightly protrudes from the side walls 14, while the other end protrudes more than the bottom plate 12 and is folded largely toward the side opposite to the side walls 14. It is curved and serves as rice input guide 13 when adding rice.
On the other hand, the top of the side wall 14 protrudes and serves as a stopper 15 that comes into contact with the upper part of the opening 5 to regulate the angle when the input door 6 is opened, as described below.

Furthermore, a bent shielding portion 16 is provided at the end of the side wall 14 on the guide 13 side. Further, the bottom plate 12 has screw holes 1 corresponding to the bosses 10 of the door body 7.
It has 7.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the shooter auxiliary plate 18 has side walls 20 on both sides of a bottom plate 19, one of the side walls 20 protrudes from the bottom plate 19, and this protrusion has a pin hole 21. In addition, 2
2 is a notch.

The shooter auxiliary plate 18 is attached to the outside of the side wall 14 of the shooter 11 so that it can be opened and closed through a pin hole 21 with a pin 23 so that the side wall 20 is located. It is then fixed to a screw hole (not shown) in the boss 10 of the door body 7 with a screw 24. In this case,
The side wall 14 of the shooter 11 is positioned inside the positioning plate 9 of the door body 7.

When the loading door 6 having the above structure is pulled forward from the state shown in FIG. 2 by a handle (not shown),
The stopper 15 of the shooter 11 contacts the upper edge of the opening 5 and opens. Next, the shooter auxiliary plate 18
By rotating in direction B, the state shown in FIG. 1 is achieved.

Therefore, in this state, the tip of the rice bag is placed on the shooter auxiliary plate 18, and the rice is thrown into the rice bin main body 4. In this case, since the shielding part 16 provided on the shooter 11 comes into contact with the edge of the opening 5, rice will not leak out from the gap between the side wall 14 and the opening 5. Then, once the rice has been added, the charging door 6 can be closed by performing the opposite operation to that described above.

In the above embodiment, the shooter auxiliary plate 18 is hinged to the side wall 14 of the shooter 11, but the invention is not limited to this, and the shooter auxiliary plate 18 may be attached directly to the door body 7. It can also be used as a. However, according to the embodiment, when rice is added, the rice is guided by the side wall 20 and can be prevented from falling.

(Effects of the invention) As is clear from the above explanation, since the shooter is equipped with the shooter auxiliary plate, even if the door body, that is, the opening, is small, the tip of the rice bag can be easily placed.
Since the shooter auxiliary plate is rotatable, you can easily add rice without getting stuck in the process.

Moreover, since the shooter auxiliary plate is rotatably provided on the shooter, unlike a plate that slides on a rail, the rotational movement will not be impaired by grains of rice.
