Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention is applicable to crushing empty glass or ceramic bottles, glass products, or shells, and separating accessories such as stoppers and bottles from the empty bottles. The present invention relates to a device that processes empty glass bottles and shells so that they can be easily reused as resources.

``Conventional technology'' Conventionally, when processing empty glass bottles and glass products, it was necessary to remove all accessories such as caps and shells, and crushing empty bottles and shells caused dangerous sharp edges. For this reason, it was often disposed of in landfills as non-combustible garbage.

``Problem that the invention seeks to solve'' However, this type of processing does not require bulk storage,
It is inconvenient and expensive to transport, and it also reduces the volume that can be reclaimed.

With regard to the crushing process of empty glass bottles, the present inventor previously developed a "Crushing device for glass etc."
47579) and succeeded in turning empty bottles into stable particles with rounded corners. However, since the stopper and reticle of the empty bottle were mixed with the crushed glass particles, it was necessary to remove them.

``Means for Solving the Problems'' Therefore, the present invention crushes the glass or ceramic empty bottles, glass products, or shells that have been thrown in, and separates the caps and lettules, and also separates the caps and retsutel. The purpose is to make certain stable particles and enable the reuse of resources in the case of empty glass bottles and shells, and the gist of the structure is as follows.

A primary crushing passage communicating with the hopper is provided below the hopper into which objects to be processed such as empty bottles are input, and a secondary crushing passage communicating with the primary crushing passage is provided below the primary crushing passage.

A metering transfer machine is installed in the primary crushing path, and has a metering chamber that is formed between a plurality of partitions protruding from the rotating shaft and accommodates the workpiece introduced from the hopper. Further, a primary crusher having a plurality of hammers is installed below the metering conveyor, protruding from the rotating shaft and primarily crushing the workpiece that falls from the metering conveyor.

In the secondary crushing passage, each handle of a plurality of hammers protruding from the rotating shaft has a twist angle with respect to the rotation direction so as to cause a wind pressure flow, and the primary crushed pieces falling from the primary crusher are A secondary crusher is installed to crush the raw materials.

The upper part of the secondary crusher guides the falling primary crushed materials to the secondary crushing passage, and discharges the attached objects to be processed, such as plugs and labels, blown away by the wind pressure flow of the secondary crusher. Install a guide board.

Furthermore, below the guide plate at the top of the secondary crusher,
An impact plate is installed opposite to the guide plate to cause the secondary crushed material crushed by the secondary crusher to collide with the guide plate and to guide attached objects toward the guide plate.

Then, a product discharge port is installed at the bottom of the secondary crushing passage.

"Operation" The material to be processed is inputted from the hopper, and is transferred to the quantitative chamber in fixed amounts by the quantitative conveyor, and then sent to the primary crusher.

The material to be processed in the primary crusher is coarsely crushed with a hammer so that it can be easily crushed in the secondary crusher to become a primary crushed product. Through this primary crushing, it is possible to peel off and separate the accessories of empty bottles, such as caps, and relatively large paper and synthetic resin labels.

The primary crushed materials and attached materials separated and separated are guided by a guide plate by their own weight and the wind pressure flow of the primary crusher and enter the secondary crushing passage. The secondary crusher uses a hammer to further crush the primary crushed material, and uses wind pressure generated by the handle of the hammer to peel off and separate small appendages that could not be separated by the primary crusher. The impact plate makes the secondary crushing effective by colliding the secondary crushed objects during the secondary crushing. Further, the impact plate guides appendages blown away by the wind pressure flow to the guide plate, and the guide plate guides and discharges them.

The secondary crushed material, which has been separated and separated from its appendages and pulverized by secondary crushing, becomes stable particles with rounded edges and no corners, and is discharged from the product discharge port.

``Effects'' If the empty bottle is made of glass, if it is thrown in with accessories such as the cap and label still attached, the attachments can be peeled off and separated into glass particles, which can be reused as a resource. be able to. Seashells can also be made into stable particles and can be used as a resource.

If the empty bottle is made of ceramics, storage, transportation, landfilling, etc. for subsequent final processing are not bulky and costly.

Moreover, since it can be formed compactly, it is possible to collect and process it while being mounted on a car and moving.
