Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a conveying device which is arranged at a carry-in port of a processing device such as a cutting device for cutting a member such as a square bar and which carries a member to be processed into the processing device. is there.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a general processing apparatus for cutting a member such as a square bar or a relatively long plate, scraping the surface of the member, and providing a groove, a common processing apparatus is provided with a carry-in port. After inserting the timber and the like, the working operation is performed almost automatically, and the processed object to be conveyed is carried out.

A carry-in table for carrying-in is attached to the carry-in port of the processing apparatus. A member to be processed is placed on the carry-in table, and an operator sequentially inserts the member into the carry-in port of the processing apparatus. By doing so, the working work of the member was performed.

[0004]

By the way, when the member to be processed is carried into the processing apparatus by the carry-in table as described above, the worker carries in the member to be processed next into the processing apparatus. I had to do it. Therefore,
When the member is carried in by the carry-in table, the machining work is interrupted when the worker leaves the carry-in table for the purpose of confirming the state of the processing apparatus or for other purposes, and the workability is poor. .

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide a member to be processed,
An object of the present invention is to provide a transfer device that can be loaded into various processing devices in a substantially automatic and accurate direction.

[0006]

The transport device of the present invention is for transporting a member such as a square timber from a predetermined position in a fixed transport direction, and is a transport base comprising a roller conveyor, and a transport base on the transport base. A ruler provided along the carrying direction on one side edge side, and a baffle plate provided substantially at a right angle to the ruler at the carry-out side end portion of the carrying table, wherein the roller conveyor has a large number. Of rollers, these rollers are
One end of the ruler side is obliquely arranged with respect to the ruler so that it is rearward with respect to the transport direction with respect to the other end side, and the baffle plate has the one end between the side surface of the ruler and the side face of the ruler. The means for solving the above-mentioned problems is that the members are arranged with a space that allows them to pass through.

[0007]

According to the above construction, the member placed on the carrying table is arranged obliquely with respect to the ruler so that one end of the ruler side is rearward of the other end side in the carrying direction. With a roller conveyor having rollers, it advances diagonally to the ruler side with respect to the conveying direction. Then, when the front end of the member comes into contact with the baffle plate, the forward movement of the member is regulated, but the member is moved to the ruler side by the roller conveyor. Then, when the front end of the member moves to between the one end of the baffle plate and one side surface of the ruler, the member advances in a state in which one side edge is regulated by the ruler.

Further, the baffle plate 4 is arranged between the one end of the baffle plate 4 on the side of the ruler 3 and one side surface of the ruler 3 with a space b which is slightly wider than the width of the member to be conveyed.

The carry-in table 5 is composed of a plate 5a constituting the table surface and two legs 5b (only one is shown in FIG. 1). One edge of the plate 5a is joined to the roller support portion 2c that supports the other end of the rollers 2a ... And the other edge of the plate 5a is supported by the leg 5b. The upper surface of the insertion table 5, the upper surface of the roller support portion 2c, and the upper surface of the roller 2a have the same height. The upper surface of the insertion table 5 may be slightly higher than the upper surface of the roller supporting portion 2c, and the upper surface of the roller supporting portion 2c may be slightly higher than the upper surfaces of the rollers 2a.

Next, the operation of the carrying apparatus of this embodiment will be described. First, the transport device is installed adjacent to the carry-in port side of a processing device that cuts, scrapes the surface of, or forms a groove such as a square bar or a relatively long plate. At this time, the carrying-in direction of the member to be processed of the processing device and the direction of the ruler 3 of the transfer device are made the same, and the position of the inlet of the processing device, one end of the baffle plate 4 of the transfer device and the ruler 3 are set. Align the position with one side of.

Then, a plurality of members to be processed are placed on the carry-in table 5. Next, the member is pushed out toward the carrier 1. The member extruded onto the conveyor 1 is conveyed obliquely forward to the side of the ruler 3 because the rollers 2a of the roller conveyor unit 2 are obliquely arranged as described above.

When the front end of the member comes into contact with the baffle plate 4, the forward movement of the member is restricted and the member moves to the ruler 3 side. Then, when the front part or the rear part of the member closest to the ruler 3 comes into contact with the ruler 3, the member is restricted by the ruler 3 and faces the direction along the ruler 3, and the front end of the member moves toward the baffle plate 4. It enters between one end and one side of the ruler 3.
Then, the member is a body whose one side face is regulated by the ruler 3, passes between one end of the baffle plate 4 and one side face of the ruler 3, and is pushed into the insertion port of the processing device. At this time,
Since the member is pressed against the ruler 3 by the roller conveyor unit 2 and the direction of the member is restricted by the ruler 3,
It is loaded into the loading port of the processing equipment in the correct direction.

Next, when the member closest to the ruler 3 is completely carried out from between one end of the baffle plate 4 and one side surface of the ruler 3, the next member is carried into the processing apparatus in the same manner as the above-mentioned member. It Thereafter, the members placed on the carrier 1 are carried into the processing apparatus in the order of being closer to the ruler 3. As described above, according to the carrying device of the present embodiment, the plurality of members placed on the carrying table 1 are automatically carried into the working device in sequence.
The operator can leave the loading device until all the members on the carrier 1 are loaded into the processing device. Therefore, the worker can see the state of the processing device, see the progress of other work, and see the state of the member discharged from the processing device without interrupting the processing work of the member. Becomes

That is, according to the carrying apparatus of this embodiment,
Since it is not necessary for the operator to carry the members into the processing device one by one, and the processing work of the members is not interrupted even if the worker temporarily leaves the work table 5, the processing of the members The workability of work can be improved.

The carrying apparatus of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and the specific constitutional requirements such as the shape, size and material of each constituent element can be appropriately changed in carrying out the invention. For example, the height of the legs may be adjusted so that the height of the carrier 1 corresponds to various processing devices. Further, the baffle plate 4 may be configured to be movable left and right so that the interval between the baffle plate 4 and the ruler 3 can be freely set according to the width of various members.

[0027]

As described above in detail, according to the conveying apparatus of the present invention, by installing it adjacent to the processing apparatus for processing members such as squares and relatively long plates,
The member can be accurately carried into the processing device substantially automatically, and the processing operation is not interrupted even if the worker temporarily leaves the processing device. Therefore, according to the carrying device of the present invention, the workability of the working operation of the member can be improved.
