Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tile massing machine which is conveniently used when performing a tiling operation in a narrow space.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A tile massing machine capable of automatically massing mortar on a sheet tile has already been proposed by the applicant of the present invention, and a tile supply for supplying sheet tiles one by one. The apparatus comprises a device, a mass-applying device for applying mortar to the sheet tile supplied by the device, and a mortar-supplying device for supplying mortar to the mass-applying device.

[0003]

The tile mass applicator described above is used by being set aside at a work site. However, when the work site is narrow, it is not possible to secure a place for installation, so it is necessary to make it compact. Is done. This requirement becomes even more important, since it may be necessary to stand and use it on an extremely narrow scaffolding plate that is temporarily installed, especially when working in high places. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tile mass applicator which can reasonably meet such a request.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, the uppermost tiles of the sheet tiles stacked one above the other are sequentially supplied to a fixed height position above. A supply device is formed, and a hopper for storing mortar is provided on the side of the supply device, and at the top of the supply device, the sheet tile supplied from this device is filled with the mortar supplied by pump means from the hopper. A mass tensioning device is provided which is applied through the trowel and the mass plate. This mass tensioning device is a horizontal unit provided near the upper part of the hopper with its main body consisting of the trowel, the mass plate and the frame supporting these. It is characterized in that it is assumed that the sheet tile is tilted and displaced around the support shaft, and the processed sheet tile is taken out of the machine with the main body tilted.

Here, by arranging the tile supplying device and the mass tensioning device, which occupy a relatively large space, in the vertical direction, the overall shape of the device in plan view is made compact and the constituent members of the latter device are used as supporting members of the former device. Further, the hopper is arranged on the side of the tile supplying device, and the hopper wall surface can be used as a guide member for the tile of the tile supplying device, and the members can be shared in the same manner. Further, the structure in which the sheet tiles are taken out in a state where the main body of the mass tensioning device is inclined and displaced contributes to reducing the size of the entire device in plan view and the mortar attached to the main body of the mass tensioning device is dropped into the hopper. It shall be possible to prevent the stains.

In the present invention, the mass tensioning device has a mass plate fixed to the lower surface of the frame frame and is guided to the upper surface side of the mass plate through the side portion of the frame frame in the direction orthogonal to the support shaft. No trowel means is provided, and the trowel means is provided with a pair of trowels arranged in the shape of a roof so that the entire oscillating body can be swung around the top and mortar is supplied below the trowel. When the iron means is driven by the iron drive means in the direction orthogonal to the support shaft, the tip of the iron opposite to the traveling direction is pressed against the mass plate, and the other iron is removed from the mass plate. It is better to assume that it will be surfaced.

In this way, the trowel on the opposite side to the advancing direction effectively applies the mortar to the upper surface of the mass plate by the wedge action of the inclined surface, and the other trowel removes the mortar remaining on the mass plate from the front surface. Since it does not drop off and functions to take in below the trowel, the mortar remaining on the mass plate does not accumulate on the outer surface of the trowel means or its surroundings. This will reduce the time and effort required for cleaning.

In order to easily clean the entire apparatus in the present invention, the main body of the mass tensioning device can be detached from other parts and the trowel can be detached from the main body.

Further, in order to prevent the mortar from condensing in the mortar supply route in the present invention, the trowel means is located on the hopper except when the mass is stretched, and the mortar supplied to the trowel means is fed to the hopper. It will be returned.

An example of use and operation of the apparatus of the above embodiment will be described. In a tiling operation at a high place, for example, the device of the present invention is set on a temporary scaffold.
After supplying cement, sand and water into the hopper 14, the motor 17 is started to rotate the stirring blades 16 and the pump means 15 is started to move the mortar m in the hopper 14 through the tubes 15a. Supply to the lower part of 18a, 18b. Since the trowel means 18 is always located on the hopper 14 except during the mass tensioning operation, the supplied mortar m is returned to the hopper 14 through the lower parts of the trowels 18a and 18b, and the mortar is always in a fluid state. Therefore, the mortar m in the hopper 14 is kept in a non-condensed state even if the mass tensioning operation is temporarily interrupted.

On the other hand, the sheet tiles w are stacked on the table 6 of the sheet tile supply device 1, and after the preparation is completed, the entire device is brought into an operating state. As a result, the motor 8 is operated and the table 6 is displaced upward. In this example, the uppermost sheet tile w abuts the lower surface of the mass plate 21 to slightly displace the mass plate 21 and the frame 19. At this time, the switch 12 detects this and stops the motor 8. On the other hand, in connection with this, the motor 31 is started, and the iron driving means 26 is activated. First, as shown in FIG.

The pulling force of the chain 30 to the right acts so as to swing the trowel means 18 in the arrow direction f1 around the rotation center axes of the rollers 24a and 24b, so that the tip of the trowel 18a on the left side is the surface of the mass plate 21. On the other hand, the tip of the trowel 18b on the right side is floated from the surface of the mass plate 21 while being pressed by. Therefore, the pair of irons 18a, 1
The mortar m supplied below 8b is the iron 18a on the left side.
It is filled into the mass 21a so that it can be pressed down by, and even if the mortar m of the previous step remains on the surface of the mass plate 21, the tip of the right iron 18b holds the mortar m. It does not. When the iron means 18 reaches the right end, the switch 37b
When this is detected, the motor 31 is rotated in the opposite direction, whereby the chain 30 moves the iron means 18 to the left via the lever 32 as shown in FIG. The pulling force to the left of the chain 30 acts so as to rotate the iron means 18 in the arrow direction f2 around the rotation center axes of the rollers 24a and 24b.
The tip of 8b is pressed against the surface of the mass plate 21, while the tip of the left iron 18a is floated from the surface of the mass plate 21. Therefore, the mortar m supplied below the pair of trowels 18a and 18b is filled into the mass 21a ... so as to be pressed by the right trowel 18b, and the surface of the mass plate 21 of the previous step is filled. Even if the mortar m exists, the tip of the iron 18a on the left side does not support the mortar m. The operation of the trowels 18a and 18b prevents the mortar m from adhering to the outer surface of the trowel means 18 and the like. When the iron means 18 reaches the left end, the switch 37
When a detects this, the motor 31 is stopped, and the iron driving means 26 is temporarily stopped. Then, the motor 35 is operated in connection with this, and the frame frame 19, the iron means 1 is operated.
8 and the mass plate 21 and the like, the main body of the mass tensioning device is tilted and displaced around the support shaft 20 as shown by an imaginary line. Under this condition, when the sheet tile w with the trout is taken out by hand, the switch 12 detects this and the main body returns to the horizontal original position, and the motor 8 is related to this. It is started and the sheet tile w ... Is displaced upward. Then, when the uppermost sheet tile w slightly pushes up the mass plate 21 or the like, the switch 12 detects it as described above, and the same operation as described above is sequentially performed. By repeating this, when the sheet tile w does not exist on the table 6, that is, when the table 6 reaches the upper end position, the switch 11a detects this, and in association with this, the motor 8 is reversely rotated and the table 6 is rotated. Is lowered, and when it reaches the lowest position, the switch 11b detects this and the motor 8 is stopped. In this state, the frame 19 is tilted and displaced so that the table tiles 6 are replenished with the sheet tiles w. After this replenishment, when the device is restarted, the same operation as described above is repeated.

When the tiling operation is completed, it is necessary to wash the entire apparatus to remove the mortar m and the like adhering to the apparatus. In this case, water is supplied into the hopper 14 and the iron means 18 is used. After being positioned on the hopper 18 as shown in 1, the mortar feeding means 2 is activated. As a result, the water circulates in the order of the hopper 14, the pump means 15, the tubes 15a, ..., The trowel means 18, and the frame frame 19, and each of these parts can be washed without trouble. After this cleaning, the guide bars 22a and 22b are removed, the trowel means 18 is taken out, the inner surface side of the trowel means 18 is carefully cleaned, and if necessary, the support shaft 20 is removed to remove the frame frame 19.
And remove the mass plate 21 and the like.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, the mass tensioning device 3 is arranged above the tile feeding device 1 and the sheet tile is taken out by inclining the mass tensioning device 3. The plan view shape of the entire apparatus can be made extremely compact, and the arrangement of the mass tensioning device 3 above the tile feeding device 1 allows the constituent members of the tile feeding device 1 to serve as supporting members for the mass tensioning device 3. At the same time that the hopper 14 is functioning, the hopper 14 is arranged on the side portion of the tile feeding device 3 so that the wall surface of the hopper 14 is placed on the feeding device 1.
