Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to grain dry storage and preparation facilities, and more particularly to an apparatus for storing received grain.

(Prior art) An example of a conventional grain drying, storage and preparation facility is one that receives a large amount of grain from a number of farmers in the area, dries it in multiple dryers, selects it, stores it, and then ships it. Are known.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in this type of facility, when the amount of grains such as paddy received is concentrated at one time due to various conditions such as weather, there is a problem that the receiving facility cannot process the grains smoothly. .

The present invention solves these drawbacks, and even if the amount of cargo is concentrated,
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device that smoothly processes received grain.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a grain drying and storage preparation facility that dries received grains with a plurality of dryers, selects them, stores them, and ships them. a container for storing the container, a storage shelf for temporarily storing the container,
The apparatus includes a container carry-in/out means for carrying the container into and out of the storage shelf, and a container transfer means for transferring the container carried out by the container carry-in/out means to the predetermined dryer.

(Function) When new grain is received while all the dryers in the facility are in operation, the container containing the newly received grain is transported to the storage shelf by the container loading/unloading means and temporarily waits there. Thereafter, when the dryer becomes empty, the container carry-in/out means carries out the waiting container from the storage shelf, and the container transfer means transfers this container to the empty dryer.

(Example) Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a grain drying storage preparation facility equipped with a grain storage apparatus according to the present invention.

The container dispenser mechanism 1 is used to carry containers 3 into and out of the storage shelf 2, and is provided opposite to the storage shelf 2. Multiple dryers 4, 5.6.7 for drying grains adjacent to storage shelves 2
and a huller 8 are arranged in a row. Then, a running rail 9 with a concave center part is laid between the container drawer mechanism 1 and the storage shelf 2, and a similar running rail 9 is installed in the dryer 4.
, 5°6.7 and along the huller 8.

The container dispenser mechanism 1 includes a large carry-out kite 1 that fits into grooves 10 and 10 provided on the left and right sides of the container 3, as shown in FIG.
1 is screwed onto a threaded rod 12, and this carrying out large kite 11 is carried out by a motor (
(not shown) and is guided by a threaded rod 12 so that it can be raised and lowered freely. Axles are attached to the upper and lower ends of the threaded rod 12, and wheels 13.13 are attached to both ends of each axle. Then, the wheels 13.13 are fitted into rails 15 provided above and below the rail support plate 14, and the threaded rod 12 is made movable along the rails 15 by a drive means (not shown).

This rail support plate 14 is connected to a fixed platen 17 via a plurality of hydraulic cylinders 16.

The storage shelf 2 has a plurality of storage chambers 18 arranged vertically and horizontally, and a container 3 can be freely stored in each storage chamber 18.

As shown in FIG. 3, the container 3 is provided with a horizontal grain discharge spiral 19 at its bottom, and is integrally attached to the upper part of a self-propelled cart 20 that runs on traveling rails 9. The running wheels 21 of the truck 20 fit into the recesses of the running rail 9.

Note that the container 3 in the drawing is a self-propelled trolley 2 as described above.
Although it was configured integrally with 0, it was configured separately from the trolley 20, and 1
A plurality of containers 3 may be moved by a single cart 20.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as described above will be explained.

First, the grains that have been received and weighed are stored in empty containers 3 waiting on the traveling rails 9. Once stored, the trolley 20 travels to the loading port 22 of the target dryer 4, for example.
When you arrive in front of the road, stop there.

Next, the grain discharge spiral 19 is driven to charge the grain in the container 3 into the charging port 22. The input grains are loaded into the dryer 4 by the elevator 27 (see FIG. 3).

If new grain is received while dryers 4, 5, 6, and 7 are already in use, the grain will be transferred to container 3.
Temporarily wait in storage shelf 2 while storing it in the storage shelf 2. That is, in this case, the container 3 is transported by the cart 20 along the traveling rail 9 to a predetermined position in front of the container dispenser mechanism 1. There, the large unloading kite 11 that is waiting moves forward and the container 3
The carrying kite 10 carries the container 3 to the front of the target storage chamber 18 of the storage shelf 2 by the operation of the wheels 13.13, etc., and then drives the hydraulic cylinder 16. As a result, the rail support plate 14 moves forward and carries the container 3 into the target storage chamber 18. After being carried in, the carrying-out large kite 11 is detached from the groove 10 of the container 3, returns to its original position, and waits.

In this way, the container 3 containing the grains is carried into the storage chamber 18 in the storage shelf 2, so even if there is a large number of consignments and it is impossible to dry the consignments, the consignments themselves can smoothly receive the grains. You can receive the shipment.

After waiting for a suitable period of time, when any of the dryers 4, 5, and 6°7 becomes empty and the next grain can be dried, the unloading large kite 11 of the container drawer mechanism 1 moves to the storage shelf 2.
The container 3 waiting in the storage room 18 is carried out in the reverse order of the carrying-in procedure. The carried out container 3 is transported by a cart 20 along the rails 9, 9, and when the cart 20 arrives at the loading port 22 of the dryer 4, the grains in the container 3 are fed into the loading port 22 through a grain discharge spiral 19. and placed in the dryer 4.

In this way, the grains in the container 3 waiting on the storage shelf 2 are loaded into the dryer 4 as needed and dried. The dried grain is stored in an empty container 3 waiting at the discharge port 28 of the dryer, and then transported to a huller 8 where it is hulled.

Next, another embodiment of the container will be described with reference to FIG.

In this embodiment, a transmitter 23 that emits electromagnetic waves or ultrasonic waves is attached to the top of each loading port of the dryers 4.5 and 6.7, and the container 3 receives the electromagnetic waves or ultrasonic waves from the transmitter 23. A receiver 24 is attached. In this way, when the container 3 arrives at the loading port of the dryer into which grain is to be loaded, the receiver 24 receives electromagnetic waves from the transmitter 23, and the trolley 20 automatically stops. It becomes possible.

When the trolley 20 stops at a predetermined position, the tensioning drive motor 25 connects the grain discharging spiral 1 via the belt 26.
9 is driven to discharge the grains in the container 3 to the loading port 22 of the dryer.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the present invention is configured to include a container for storing grains, to have the container stand by on a storage shelf, and to allow the waiting container to be easily taken out as needed.

Therefore, in the present invention, when the grains are concentrated at the receiving side, the grains can be placed on standby, so that the receiving side can process the grains smoothly regardless of the amount, thereby facilitating the drying and preparation work in the subsequent process. This produces the effect that it can be done.
