Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an automatic roof tile cutting machine.

[0002]

[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices]

 Conventionally, the small-scale manufacturing of roof tiles is performed as follows. (1) Puffing and cutting Kneading of the raw material clay prepared to a predetermined composition is done by a puffing machine, and as shown in FIG. A person cuts the coarse tile into a predetermined length with the piano wire 23, and puts the tile after cutting on a carriage (not shown). (2) Cutting and processing of the side surface of the rough tile after cutting The wooden mold 24 as shown in Fig. 5 is pressed against the rough tile 25 cut to a predetermined length on the trolley, and the unnecessary portion of the side surface is drawn. It cuts with the knife 26 shown in 6, and carries the roof tile after cutting to the press machine. (3) Pressing of the rough tile after cutting The rough tile 25 cut as described above is pressed into a predetermined shape by a pressing machine (not shown).

(4) Drying / Firing The rough tile after pressing is dried / fired to obtain a product tile 27 as shown in FIG. As described above, the conventional roof tile manufacturing involves a lot of manual work, which has the following disadvantages. The condition (smoothness) of the cut surface is not constant because it is a method in which the worker cuts the strip-shaped rough tile with a piano wire to a predetermined length. The shape is not constant because it is a method of pressing the wooden mold against the rough tile to cut the side surface. The physical burden on the operator for moving the coarse tiles between the steps is large.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and an object thereof is to reduce a physical burden on a worker in manufacturing a roof tile and to remove a strip-shaped rough roof tile. An object is to provide an automatic roof tile cutting machine capable of cutting into a constant size (shape).

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the gist of the present invention is an automatic roof tile cutting machine capable of automatically cutting strip-shaped coarse tiles continuously supplied from a clay kneader to a certain size, It has a fixed base for receiving the strip-shaped rough tile, a slide base on which the rough tile after cutting is placed, a vertical cutter that operates vertically, and a horizontal cutter that operates horizontally. However, there is an automatic tile cutting machine characterized in that the slide base and the cutting machine main body can be moved in parallel to the feeding direction of the strip-shaped rough tile.

[0006]

[Action]

 The strip-shaped rough tiles that are continuously supplied from the kneading machine onto the fixed base move on the fixed base and are cut to a predetermined length by the vertical cutter of the cutting machine body, while the horizontal cutter does not require side surfaces. The part is cut off. Along with this cutting operation, the main body of the cutter pushes the rough tile after cutting to the anti-feed side, and at the same time, the slide base on which the rough tile after cutting is loaded moves to the anti-feed side of the rough tile for a certain distance.

The rough tile thus cut can be pressed, dried and fired according to a conventional method to obtain a product tile.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an automatic roof tile cutting machine according to the present invention. On the left side of the figure, there is a clay kneader (not shown), and strip-shaped coarse tiles with a predetermined clay mixture are continuously supplied from this clay kneader. 1 is a fixed base for receiving strip-shaped rough tiles, 2 is a kerosene can, and this kerosene can 2 is connected to a flannel band 4 on the fixed base 1 through a pipe 3, and from this flannel band 4 there is always a small amount of oil content. Is oozing out. Due to the action of this oil, the strip-shaped rough tile supplied from the left moves smoothly along the fixed base 1 in the direction of arrow A. The material that supplies oil onto the fixed base 1 may be any material that has permeability, and it is possible to use materials other than flannel material. Reference numeral 5 denotes a slide base, which is close to the lower side of the fixed base 1 and is movable in the arrow B direction. As shown in detail in FIG. 2, a cutting machine body 6 is provided with a vertical cutter 7 that operates in a vertical direction and a horizontal cutter 8 that operates in a horizontal direction. Cut coarse tiles horizontally.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the cutting machine body 6 is horizontally movable by an air cylinder 11, and 12 is an air cylinder for moving the slide base 5. A limit switch 13 is provided on the cutting machine body 6, and "a vertical cutter 7 and a horizontal cutter 8 (see FIG. 2) are operated in cooperation with the limit switch 13 and further the vertical cutter 7 and the horizontal cutter 8 are operated. A power supply box 14 has a control sequence in which the rods of the air cylinders 11 and 12 extend to the right along with the operation to move the cutting machine body 6 and the slide base 5 to the right.

Next, the operation of the automatic roof tile cutting machine having such a configuration will be described mainly with reference to FIG. The strip-shaped rough tiles 22 supplied from the kneading machine to the fixed base 1 smoothly move to the right on the fixed base 1 due to the action of oil oozing from the flannel band 4, and eventually reach the limit switch 13. The vertical cutter 7 and the horizontal cutter 8 (see FIG. 2) are activated and cut into roof tiles of a predetermined size. Along with this cutting work, the rod 15 of the air cylinder 11 extends so as to push the cutter body 6 to the right and the slide base 5 slides to the right by the air cylinder 12, so a vertical cutter and a horizontal cutter. The roof tile 16 cut into a predetermined size by the slider is transferred onto the slide base 5. The tile 16 on the slide base 5 can be carried by a worker to a press, pressed into a predetermined shape, and then dried and fired to obtain a tile 27 as shown in FIG. As described above, according to the automatic roof tile cutting machine of the present invention, it is possible to continuously cut a roof tile of a certain size, the shape accuracy of the roof tile is improved, and the physical load of the roof tile manufacturing operator is increased. Can be significantly reduced.

Further, it is possible to connect the automatic roof tile cutting machine and the press machine with a transporting means such as a slide base, which further reduces the physical burden on the roof tile manufacturing operator.

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 Since the automatic tile cutting machine according to the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects. The strip-shaped rough tiles supplied from the kneading machine are automatically cut into tiles of a predetermined size by the vertical cutter and horizontal cutter of the cutter body, so there are no defective products during pressing. Since a cutting machine can perform conventional manual cutting work using a piano wire or a wooden pattern, it is possible to reduce the physical burden on the worker.
