By driving the vertical movement device 54 upward, the composite block K is pushed into the hole 62 of the scraper 63 and penetrates it. The composite block K has holes 6 in the scraper 63.
The adhesive material c extruded and overflowed around the composite block K in the process of being forcedly passed through 2 is the scraper 6 described above.
Surely scraped by 3 and finished beautifully. The composite block K, which has been subjected to the finishing treatment, is an extruding device 6 constituted by a mover 65 with a cylinder 64 for moving back and forth.
By the forward movement of 6, it is extruded to a predetermined lateral recovery route. The mover 65 is movably provided on a guide shaft 67 that is horizontally installed at a predetermined position above the guide shaft 57.

A vibrator 68 is mechanically connected to the scraper 63 and is operated during operation of the apparatus. The scraper 63 is vibrated by the operation of the vibrator 68. It is unavoidable that a part of the adhesive material scraped off in the above-mentioned finishing process adheres around the hole 62 of the scraper 63, but the adhesive material adhered by the vibration of the scraper 63 is stripped off as described above. .

After finishing the above series of finishing operations, each movable body returns to its original position to prepare for the finishing process of the next unfinished composite block.

Elevating rail 69 on which the composite block K extruded by the extruding device 66 of the finishing device is placed, and the elevating rail 69.
A roller conveyer 70 is provided with an interval that allows it to move up and down. Centering from both end sides of the composite block to eliminate the gap between the composite blocks extruded onto the elevating rail 69 by the extruding device 66. A width-shifting device 71 is provided that pushes toward the portion and shifts the width. After the elevating rail 69 descends, the composite block placed on the roller conveyor 70 is sent forward by the rotation of the roller conveyor 70.

The delivered composite blocks are sequentially stacked by the catcher 72 on the empty pallet 16 that has been idle-fed to the end of the pallet transport path A, and then carried out to the outside.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the adhesive material is applied to the back surface of the coating material, but next, the tea-making material is applied to the surface of the base block. In this case, as shown in FIG. 45, the base block is positioned under the mask hole of the adhesive material application device such as mortar, and the adhesive material is applied by moving the adhesive material hopper. For the subsequent crimping and finishing, the same crimping device and finishing device as described above are used. If there is a protrusion 101 as shown in FIG. 46 on the upper surface of the base block, a stopper 81 is provided on the lower surface of the mask plate as shown in FIG.
Adjust the mortar thickness. In addition, in order to spread the mortar sufficiently over the entire back surface of the coating material,
Although a mask having a shape as shown in FIG. 7 is used, the stopper attachment position in this case may be the position shown in FIG. The advantage of this means is that the coating material does not need to be inverted and the device can be simplified.

F. EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As is clear from the above description, the present invention is capable of producing a composite block by complete automation, and thus has extremely high productivity and contributes to improvement of product accuracy and uniformity. It is an excellent composite block manufacturing device.
