[0006]

[Action]

 The device for transferring noodles such as somen noodles and udon of the present invention is equipped with a removing mechanism for removing the noodles cantilevered by a stretching machine, a sabaki machine, etc., and the noodles removed by the removing mechanism are Suspended horizontally on a support arm. A receiving arm that can move back and forth is arranged below the supporting arm, and the receiving arm can reciprocate between a position directly below the supporting arm and the conveying means.

With the receiving arm positioned directly below the supporting arm, the supporting arm is opened to transfer the noodles to the receiving arm, and the receiving arm transfers the noodles onto the conveying means. Therefore, it can be transferred to a predetermined standby position.

In the present invention, as a mechanism for removing the noodles from the stretching machine / sakiki machine, etc., an extrusion means for extruding the noodles from the back side of the supporting part of the stretching machine / sakiki machine or the like is used. There is. Also in this case, the noodle strips are extruded and supported by the support arm at the same time, so that the noodle strips do not incline and the noodle strings do not deviate.

Further, in the present invention, the transportation means for further transporting the noodle rods transferred by the receiving arm to a predetermined standby position is tilted from below the receiving arm to a position where the noodle rods supported by the receiving arm can be transferred. There is also one in which the noodle poles are smoothly delivered from the receiving arm onto the conveying means by being supported so as to be tiltable so as to be obtained.

【Example】

 Examples will be described with reference to the following drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an embodiment, FIG. 2 is a front view thereof, FIG. 3 is a side view thereof, and FIGS. 4 and 5 are explanatory views showing an example of a mechanism for removing noodles.

In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which a noodle band transfer device 1 for some noodles, udon, etc. is attached to a stretching sabaki machine 2. In the present embodiment, the stretching and slitting machine 2 stretches and slits the noodle strings while rotating the noodle strips from the attachment position 3 to the work completion position 4, and has eight pairs of noodle strip support portions 5. is doing. Each supporting portion 5 is composed of an upper supporting portion 5a and a lower supporting portion 5b, which are a pair of upper and lower portions, and each has a supporting hole 6 formed therein. The pushing rods 7 are loosely inserted into the respective supporting holes 6 from the back surface of the supporting portion. Normally, the pushing rods 7 are urged by the springs 8 so as to be located outside the supporting holes 6, and the noodle rods 31 It does not hinder the support.

A pressing plate 9 is provided on the back side of the support portion 5 at the work completion position 4 of the stretching and sagging machine 2, and pushes the pushing rod 7 toward the inside of the support hole 6 against the spring 8 to support the support hole. Air cylinders 10 and 11 are connected to the pressing plate 9 so as to push out the noodle rods 31 inserted into the press plate 6. However, in the present embodiment, the pressing plate 9b is operated in the lower support portion 5b by utilizing the expansion operation of the air cylinder 11, first the lower noodle strip 32 is pushed out, and the contraction operation of the air cylinder 10 in the upper support portion 5a. Is used to operate the pressing plate 9a to extrude the upper noodle strip 31.

Both ends of the noodle rod 31 extruded as described above are supported by the support arm 12. The support arm 12 opens and closes by converting the parallel movement of the operating rod 14 linked with the air cylinder 13 into a rotational movement by the crank rod 15. Reference numeral 16 denotes a rotation shaft of a gear 17 connected to the crank rod 15. When the gear 17 rotates as the air cylinder 13 expands and contracts, the gear 18 meshed with the gear 17 rotates in the opposite direction. Therefore, the first arm 12a fixed to the gear 17 and the second arm 12b fixed to the gear 18 rotate in opposite directions to open and close the support arm 12. The support arm 12 waits in an open state until the noodle pole 31 reaches the work completion position 4, and does not hinder the movement of the noodle pole 31 supported by the stretching and sawing machine 2. Then, when the noodle rod 31 reaches the work completion position 4, the support arm 12 is closed and brought into a palm-like state to support the extruded noodle rod 31. Reference numeral 19 is a stopper that prevents the extruded noodle rods 31 from projecting, and 20 is a rod that connects the left and right support arms 12.

A pair of left and right receiving arms 21 is arranged below the support arm 12. When the support arm 12 is opened, the noodle boards 31 supported by the support arm 12 are placed on the receiving arm 21. Reference numeral 22 is a notch for supporting the noodle rod on the receiving arm 21, 23 is a rodless cylinder for moving the receiving arm 21 forward and backward, and 24 is a guide rod thereof.

When the receiving arm 21 supporting the noodle rods 31 moves to the position above the chain conveyor 25 which is tilted downward, the chain conveyor 25 is tilted upward so that the noodle conveyors 31 are substantially horizontal and the noodle rods 31 are transferred. To do. 26 is an air cylinder for tilting the chain conveyor 25, 27 is a rotation driving motor for the chain conveyor 25, 28 is an intermittently rotating chain conveyor for waiting the noodles 31 conveyed by the chain conveyor 25, and 29 is a chain conveyor 25. A chute that connects the chain conveyor 28, 30 is a rotation driving motor for the chain conveyor 28, 33 is a rod that connects the output sprocket 34 of the motor 27 and the main pulleys 35 of the left and right chain conveyors 25, and 36 is an output shaft of the motor 30. 37 is a rod connecting the main sprocket 38 of the left and right chain conveyors 28.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and can be attached without a rotary stretching machine or the like as long as it is a method of supporting the noodles on one side. Also, the mechanism for removing the noodles is not limited to the pressing method, but may be a pulling-out method, and the supporting arm and the receiving arm may be appropriately configured. Further, in the present invention, a tiltable chain conveyor is used as the conveying means leading to the standby position, but it is sufficient if it can be transferred from the receiving arm even if it is not tiltable. It may be inclined so as to intersect with the transfer path of the receiving arm.

[0017]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, the present invention automates the removal and transfer of noodle strings from the drawing machine / sakiki machine, etc., so that the processing capacity of the drawing machine / sakiki machine, etc. can be fully utilized and work is very efficient. good. Moreover, the use of an air cylinder to drive the support arm, receiving arm, etc. simplifies the device and facilitates maintenance.
