搬送装置に関する。[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a conveyor for sorting crops, which is configured so that crops to be conveyed, such as carrots, radishes, and other root vegetables, are sequentially loaded from a storage section and sent one by one to the next process. Regarding equipment.

出し搬出するよう構成したものが考えられた。[Prior Art] Conventionally, in the above-mentioned transportation device for sorting crops, a flat belt-like belt conveyor is disposed at the bottom of the storage section, and the conveyed material is sent to one side of the storage section by this belt conveyor. One idea is to use a carry-out conveyor in which locking protrusions are provided at a predetermined pitch on the outer circumferential surface of an endless rotation belt, and the crops are placed one by one on the locking protrusions and taken out from the storage section and carried out. It was done.

物を損傷するおそれもあり、改善の余地があった。However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional structure, the carrying-out conveyor has a structure in which a locking protrusion is simply formed on an endless rotation band, so that this type of crop having a special shape is always reliably held in the locking position. It is not always possible to place and lock onto the locking protrusion, and there is a drawback that two or more items may be placed on the locking protrusion by mistake, or they may not be placed on the locking protrusion for a long time, making it impossible to reliably carry out individual items. Since the locking protrusion is forcibly rotated, there is a risk of damaging the crops, and there is room for improvement.

それが少ない。[Operation] As the endless rotation belt rotates, the crops to be conveyed are received by the bottom guide, placed and supported, and are conveyed while being stopped by each roller.During the conveyance, the rollers are forced to rotate. Due to the action of the helical body provided on the outer circumferential surface of the conveyor belt, the conveyed product is biased toward one side in the axial direction of the roller, and at the end of the conveyance, it is always kept within a predetermined portion of the conveyance width. It will be sent to the next process from the side location. Furthermore, as a result of being subjected to such cross-feeding action, even if multiple crops to be conveyed are simultaneously placed on the rollers at the starting end, the crops to be conveyed on the subsequent side during the above-mentioned cross-feeding are forced to Because it is discharged outward,
At the end, only one crop to be transported is always placed on each roller. Moreover, since the structure is such that the crops to be transported are locked by the rollers, there is little risk of damaging the crops.

As shown in FIG. 4, this unloading device 1 rotatably supports a number of rollers 9 at a predetermined pitch over a pair of left and right endless rotating chains 8, 8 (an example of an endless rotating belt). The rollers 9 are configured to lock and convey the transported crops A, and include a transverse feeding section 1a that transversely feeds the transported crops A along the bottom of the hopper 2, and a hopper connected to the transverse feeding section 1a. 2, and an unloading section 1b for mounting and transporting the crops A to be transported diagonally upward to the outside of the storage section 2. A bottom guide 10 is provided below the conveyance area of the rollers 9 over the entire conveyance area, and the transported product A is placed on the bottom guide 10 while being held by each roller 9 and conveyed. It has been done. In addition, flat belt-type reduction belts 11 that move in the opposite direction to the conveying direction are arranged on both the left and right sides of the transverse feed section 1a,
When the crops A are lifted and conveyed obliquely upward from the transverse feed section 1a, the transported crops A that have fallen outward are returned to the conveyance starting end side, thereby improving the conveyance efficiency.

ある。A spiral protrusion 12 (an example of a spiral body) is provided on the outer peripheral surface of each roller 9, and as the endless rotation chain 8 rotates, the roller 9 is rotated around its pivot axis. A means for forcibly rotating it is provided. To be more specific, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a spiral protrusion 12 is formed on each roller 9 in a certain direction, and no spiral protrusion 12 is formed in a predetermined range on the terminal end side in the spiral feeding direction. It is formed on a smooth surface, and in the carrying out section 1b, contacts a part of the terminal end side of each roller 9 in the spiral feeding direction from the upper side to restrict the free rotation of the roller 9, and forcibly controls the roller 9 as it moves. A contact member 13 is provided as a forced rotation means for rotation.
