[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices]

 In the conventional rotary supply device for food such as sushi, the sushi etc. on the plate from the kitchen installed in the store is placed on the belt conveyor and passed in front of the customer, and the plate on the conveyor is set according to preference. It is a device for extracting and eating. In a conventional sushi restaurant, a sushi chef holds sushi according to a customer's order and provides it to the customer. As an ordering method peculiar to such a sushi restaurant, there is an ordering method that communicates with specific customers, and there was the inconvenience that it was not possible to enter the shop casually for the family. From this point of view, the rotary feeding device for food has been installed as a device for providing a convenience for eating food according to preference while looking at food such as sushi for the family.

[0003] Such a rotary food supply device for foods occupies a large position as equipment installed in the store for customers to go to the store and eat food, and further has a complicated structure as a supply device. It was

On the other hand, with the recent diversification of eating habits, there has been an increasing number of opportunities to distribute foods and the like by ordering at parties and meetings with a large number of people. However, when distributing such foods, it takes time and effort to determine the quantity based on the number of people in advance, and for fresh foods such as sushi, prepare several hours before the start of the party. Therefore, there were inconveniences such as the inability to maintain the original freshness.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention has been made in view of the above, and relates to a portable conveyor device for providing food to be eaten in a store to an order destination according to an order, and has a reduced weight. Because it is portable, it can be easily assembled and removed anywhere, so it can maintain the freshness similar to what you eat at a sushi restaurant at a party such as a party, and provide food according to the taste of a large number of people. It is an object of the present invention to provide a transport device capable of performing the above.

For this purpose, the present invention provides a drive unit that revolves around an endless conveyor, and a frame that guides the conveyor is separated at least in a revolving curved portion, and a locking device that locks the separation side surface. The present invention provides a portable conveyor having means and stretching means for stretching the endless conveyor.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

FIG. 1 is a plan view showing the whole of the present invention, in which a groove is installed upright on both sides of the conveyor to guide a plate on the conveyor in order to orbit the main body 1 and the conveyor according to the present invention. A guide plate 2 provided and a crescent conveyor 3 made of, for example, a synthetic resin, which circulates in the groove of the guide plate 2 and rotates individually around the revolution axis in response to the curvature in the curved surface. Have.

The main body 1 is, for example, a stainless steel plate material bent into a rectangular parallelepiped frame, and has a curved portion (A and B in the drawing) and a straight portion (in the drawing) having a predetermined curvature as shown in FIG. It is configured so that it can be divided into each part of C). As shown in the front view of the main body of FIG. 2 and the side view of the main body of FIG. 3, the frame has a one-touch key 4 arranged in two steps in the height direction at the joint where A, B and C are butted. On the bottom of the main body 1, for example, leg portions 5 made of rubber, for example, are provided so as to protrude at a predetermined interval. The outer periphery of the frame body of Fig. 1 is determined to be close to the size of the endless crescent conveyor 3, and the inner periphery of the frame body forms an idle space when the conveyor 3 is laid on the frame body. It has a double frame. The power supply driving unit 5 is formed on the side surface of the frame body in the space. The power supply driving unit 5 is fitted between a gear 8 and a gear tooth 9 shown in FIG. 4 which are rotatably supported by a gear motor (not shown) having a predetermined rotation speed (12 rpm, 60 Hz) to connect the crescent. Arms 7 are formed on the back surface of the universal chain so as to project at predetermined intervals. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing the crescent 3 and the universal chain connected on the rear surface thereof and the arm 7 meshing with the tooth portion 9 of the gear 8. A groove 10 is formed on the upper surface of the frame body in the cross-sectional view to guide the chain around the frame body, and a predetermined tension is applied to the universal chain at both ends of the peripheral surface of the frame body in FIG. A stretched portion 6 for forming is formed. FIG. 6 is an internal plan view of the tension portion 6, showing a tension adjusting mechanism for pulling looseness of the universal chain 10 connected and joined to the back surface of the crescent 3 toward both ends of the body 1. is there. A knob 11 with a thread groove formed on the shaft (broken line 11 'shows the position before adjustment) and a fixing part that is fixed to the main body 1 and moves relative to the main body 1 are fitted into the thread groove. An adjusting plate 12 (12 'indicates the position before adjustment) for adjusting the tension, which contacts the chain 10 at the tip of the shaft.

According to the present invention, each part A, B and C of the main body 1 is carried in, the straight part C part is arranged in the curved part A, B part and the one-touch key 4 is attached. By doing so, an integral endless frame is formed. The dimension of the straight portion C is selected from those having a total length of, for example, 600 mm or 1800 mm as required. In such a case, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of linear portions may be extended and arranged. The groove portion 10 formed on the upper surface of the integral frame body draws an endless circle, and a universal chain corresponding to the circumference length is fitted to the groove 10 to form an endless crescent conveyor on the upper surface of the main body 1. Is formed. On the other hand, when the circumference length is longer than the entire length of the groove portion 10, the length of the chain length can be adjusted by the rotational movement of the knob of the tension adjusting portion 6.

Under such preparation, a commercial power source (100 V) is used in the power source drive unit 5 to switch on the gear motor so that the crescent conveyor 3 revolves around the upper surface of the main body 1.

By placing the food such as sushi in the present invention on a plate having a predetermined diameter, the food can pass in front of the attendees of the party, and the plate can be taken out as desired.

Since the present invention is a tabletop type, it is not necessary to prepare a special pedestal, and it can be mounted and operated on a general table.

[0014]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, a drive unit that revolves around an endless conveyor, a frame body that guides the conveyor is separated at least at a revolving curved portion, and a locking unit that locks the separation side surface, Since there is a stretching means for stretching the endless conveyor, it is possible to provide the food to be eaten in the store to the customer according to the order, and because it is lightweight, it is movable. Yes, because it can be easily assembled and removed anywhere, it is possible to maintain the freshness similar to that eaten at a sushi restaurant at a party such as a party, and a portable conveyor device that can provide food according to the taste of a large number of people. is there.
