Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a grain processing facility provided with a building for accommodating equipment for grain processing and a dryer provided outside the building.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to feed grain for a grain-feeding machine for feeding grain to the upper feed port of such a drier, and to feed grain discharged from a lower discharge port of the drier to equipment in a building. The discharging grain elevator was installed as an auxiliary device of the dryer just outside the dryer outside the building.

[0003]

However, when the feed fried machine and the discharge fried machine are outdoors, it is necessary to make the respective connecting portions of the drive unit and the lateral conveying device waterproof. Therefore, the installation cost is high and it becomes difficult to perform maintenance work. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to reduce the installation cost of a fried machine associated with a dryer and to facilitate maintenance work.

[0004]

Means for Solving the Problems The grain processing equipment of the present invention comprises a building for accommodating the equipment for grain processing, and a dryer provided outside the building, and its characteristic constitution Is a feed fried machine for supplying grains to the dryer from devices inside the building, and a discharge fried machine for supplying grains discharged from the dryer to devices inside the building. Is installed inside the building, and a horizontal conveying device for feeding that conveys grains from the upper discharge port of the supply grain elevator to the upper supply port of the dryer, and the discharge device from the lower discharge port of the dryer. A discharge horizontal transfer device for transferring grains to the lower supply port of the grain elevator is disposed between the building and the dryer.

[0005]

According to the above characteristic construction, the grain supplied to the dryer is lifted and conveyed by the supply grain elevator installed inside the building, and then disposed between the building and the dryer. It is conveyed to the upper supply port of the dryer by the above-mentioned horizontal conveying device for supply. In addition, the grain discharged from the lower discharge port of the dryer is transported to the inside of the building by the horizontal transport device for discharge arranged between the building and the dryer, and then the grain is installed inside the building. It is lifted and transported by a grain elevator and supplied to the equipment inside the building.

[0006]

As described above, since the feeding and discharging grain elevators are installed inside the building, it is necessary to make the connecting portions to the respective drive units and the lateral conveying device waterproof. This is advantageous in terms of installation cost and facilitates maintenance work.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in the overall plan view of FIG. 2, the grain processing facility of the present embodiment includes a building 1 that houses the equipment for grain processing, a cargo receiving tank 2, a silo 3, a dryer 4, and the like. Inside the building 1, the cargo receiving unit 11, the cargo receiving processing unit 12, the shipping processing unit 1
It is divided into 3 and office 14, etc.

Grains (for example, paddy) transferred to the cargo receiving hopper 11a by the cargo receiving section 11 are conveyed to the cargo receiving processing section 12 by the conveyor 11b, and are subjected to foreign matter removal by the rough selecting machine 12a and weighing by a weighing machine. After that, it is temporarily stored in the cargo receiving tank 2. The cargo receiving tank 2 is a storage bottle that also has a gentle drying function by a heater and a blower. Grain from the receiving tank 2 is transferred to the upper right of the building 1 by the conveyor 5 (see FIG. 2).
Be transported to).

Grains transported to the upper right of the building 1 are shown in FIG.
As also shown in FIG. 5, after being lifted and transported by the grain feeder 6 for feeding, the horizontal transporting device 7 for feeding disposed between the building 1 and the dryer 4 reaches the upper feed port 4a of the dryer 4. Be transported. The dryer 4 is a continuous flow-down type dryer, and the grain supplied from the upper supply port 4 a is applied with hot air for drying while falling inside the dryer 4.

The grain discharged from the lower discharge port 4b of the dryer 4 is conveyed to the inside of the building 1 again by a horizontal discharge conveying device 8 arranged between the dryer 4 and the building 1, and the two-stage It is lifted and conveyed by the discharging grain elevator 9 having the configuration. Then, it is conveyed to the silo 3 by the conveyor 3a and stored. Alternatively, a transport path (conveyor 5a that returns to the cargo receiving tank 2
Etc.) is also provided, and a switching valve is provided at the branch point.

Generally, it is not enough to dry the grain by passing it through the dryer 4 only once, and if the temperature of the hot air for drying is increased, the quality of the grain is deteriorated (for example, cracking of the grain occurs). Tempering drying is performed by circulating the dryer 4 and the silo 3 a plurality of times. Therefore, a transportation path for returning the grain from the lower outlet of the silo 3 to the above-mentioned grain feeding machine 6 is provided. Further, there is also provided a route for branching the grain transported by the conveyor 5 directly to the dryer 4 and transporting it to the silo 3.

Grains stored in the silo 3 are appropriately
After being transported to the shipping processing unit 13, after being temporarily stored in the weighing tank 13a after being processed by each device such as sorting, weighing, hulling adjustment, and stone removing, or directly transported to the brown rice weighing machine 13b. The brown rice that has been weighed is transported to and stored in the shipping tank 13c. In addition, a transportation route for returning to the silo 3 is also provided. The brown rice stored in the shipping tank is appropriately transferred to a transportation truck and shipped.

In the above-mentioned transportation path from the receipt of grain to each processing and shipment, a belt conveyor or a screw conveyor as a horizontal transportation device, a bucket elevator (fried grain machine) as a vertical transportation device, and a switching valve for branching. Etc. are appropriately provided. Various changes can be made to the specific configuration of the transport path.

Various types of belt conveyors, screw conveyors, and the like can be used as the specific configurations of the supply horizontal transfer device 7 and the discharge horizontal transfer device 8 arranged between the building 1 and the dryer 4. In general, the building is equipped with stairs for moving up and down, so it is possible to use the stairs to reach the position corresponding to the upper part of the grain feeder for supply and discharge. By doing so, the maintenance work for the upper part of the grain elevator can be performed more favorably.

It should be noted that reference numerals are given in the claims for convenience of comparison with the drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the configurations of the accompanying drawings by the entry.
