Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] Take out the articles on the sheet pallet placed on the ordinary pallet together with the sheet pallet without damaging the ordinary pallet. [Structure] When an article W placed on a normal pallet P together with a sheet pallet S is conveyed on the drive roller conveyor 2 and reaches the front end of the drive roller conveyor 2, the stopper 13 which has been lowered so far is raised. After that, the forklift 31 for the sheet pallet is run, and the tip of the platen 32 is placed on the protector 8. Then, the gripper 33 is projected toward the sheet pallet S, and the tabs of the sheet pallet S are clamped by the gripper 33.
Thereafter, while moving the sheet pallet forklift 31 toward the sheet pallet S, the gripper 33 is retracted, and the article W is moved together with the sheet pallet S to the platen 32.
Can be placed on.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to a conveyor device.

[0002]

[The purpose of the device]

 The invention is based on a normal pallet (a pallet having a fork insertion gap of a normal forklift. The same shall apply hereinafter) and a sheet pallet (at least one side edge of the forklift with a push-pull attachment [hereinafter, for a sheet pallet. It is called a forklift.] A thin plate-shaped pallet having tabs that are sandwiched by grippers. The same shall apply hereinafter.) Conveyor device suitable for taking out the articles placed on the pallet with the sheet pallet. It is intended to provide

[0003]

[Means for achieving the above object]

 This invention adopts the following means in order to achieve the above object. This invention is provided with a conveyor, a forklift work space provided on the front side or the left and right sides of the conveyor, and a forklift work space which is provided so as to be retractable and movable on the side of the conveyor facing the forklift work space. Has a convex curved surface and a protector.

[0004]

[Function of the device]

 This device has the following actions. When the items on the sheet pallet placed on the ordinary pallet are taken out together with the sheet pallet by the forklift for the sheet pallet, the platen of the forklift for the sheet pallet (a member corresponding to the fork of the ordinary forklift) is applied to the protector. The height of the platen can be positioned, and the platen does not collide with the normal pallet to prevent damage or breakage of the normal pallet.

[0005]

【Example】

 The present invention will be described below based on an embodiment shown in the drawings. In this specification, the front means the right side of FIG. 1, the rear means the left side of the figure, the left means the back side of FIG. 1, and the right means the front side.

The drive roller conveyor 2 whose conveyance direction is directed in the front-rear direction includes a base frame 3 and a large number of drive rollers 4 rotatably passed to the base frame 3 with their axes centered in the left-right direction. Have The base frame 3 at the front end of the drive roller conveyor 2 is usually used as a stopper 5 for the pallet P. A protector 8 made of an elastic material or the like is provided on the base frame 3 so as to be positioned in front of the stopper 5 so as to be movable up and down by a known lifting device 9. When the protector 8 descends, its upper end is located below the upper end of the stopper 5. With such a configuration, when the article unloading operation by the sheet pallet forklift 31 is not performed, the protector 8 can be lowered and retracted so as not to get in the way. It should be noted that the protector 8 may be retracted by swinging. The front surface of the protector 8 is a convex curved surface 8a that is convexly curved forward.

An empty pallet transport conveyor 11 is connected to the left side of the front end of the drive roller conveyor 2. It goes without saying that the base frame 3 and the like of the connecting portion are cut off so that the empty ordinary pallet P can be moved from the drive roller conveyor 2 to the empty pallet transfer conveyor 11. Further, a pusher 12 for pushing an empty ordinary pallet P to the left side is provided on the right side of the front end portion of the drive roller conveyor 2.

A stopper 13 is provided so as to be movable up and down by a known lifting device so as to be positioned behind the normal pallet P stopped at the front end of the drive roller conveyor 2.

A forklift work space 15 is provided in front of the drive roller conveyor 2. The forklift 31 for a sheet pallet that operates in the forklift work space 15 is a known one and includes a platen 32 that supports the sheet pallet S and a gripper 33 that is movable back and forth above the platen 32. .

[0010]

[Operation of the embodiment]

 Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described. First, the height of the protector 8 is adjusted so that the upper end thereof is flush with the upper surface of the normal pallet P or slightly above the upper surface of the normal pallet P. After such preparation, when the article W placed on the normal pallet P together with the sheet pallet S is conveyed on the drive roller conveyor 2 and reaches the front end of the drive roller conveyor 2, the stopper 13 which has been descended until now is removed. To rise. After that, the forklift 31 for seat pallets is run and the tip of the platen 32 is placed on the protector 8. After that, the gripper 33 is projected toward the sheet pallet S, and the tabs of the sheet pallet S are clamped by the gripper 33. After that, the forklift 31 for the sheet pallet is moved toward the sheet pallet S, the gripper 33 is retracted, and the article W is placed on the platen 32 together with the sheet pallet S. At this time, the stopper 13 can prevent the normal pallet P from being pushed back by the platen 32. After that, the sheet pallet fork lift 31 moves away from the drive roller conveyor 2 and conveys the article W to a predetermined position. The empty ordinary pallet P is carried out to the empty pallet transporting conveyor 11 by the operation of the pusher 12. Then, the stopper 13 descends. Thereafter, the article W newly placed on the normal pallet P together with the sheet pallet S is conveyed.

When the cargo handling work is not performed by the sheet pallet forklift 31, that is, when the articles W are transferred together with the normal pallet P by the normal forklift, the protector 8 descends to the lowest position.

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 The present invention has the following effects due to the above-described configuration. When the items on the sheet pallet that are normally placed on the pallet are taken out by the forklift for the sheet pallet together with the sheet pallet, the platen of the forklift for the sheet pallet can be positioned on the protector to determine the height of the platen. By preventing the platen from colliding with the pallet, it is possible to prevent damage or damage to the normal pallet. When not using the seat pallet forklift, the protector can be retracted so that it does not get in the way.
