Description

The present invention relates to a loading device for a coffin of a hearse.

[Problems to be Solved by Conventional Techniques and Inventions]

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a loading device for a coffin of a hearse, there is one in which a roller conveyor is fixed in the front-rear direction on the floor of a hearse room of the hearse. And when loading a coffin on this, the coffin supported by several people on the left and right is placed on the roller conveyor in the coffin room with the door at the rear of the vehicle body open.
At this time, after the front end of the coffin is placed on the rear end of the roller conveyor, several people push the coffin forward and slide it on the roller conveyor to move the coffin to the front end of the roller conveyor and load it into the hearse chamber. Is being done.

However, according to the conventional loading device, since the roller conveyor is only fixed on the floor of the hearse, it is necessary to push the coffin forward after the front end of the coffin is placed on the rear end of the roller conveyor. However, there is a problem that loading work is not easy. In particular, in a funeral in which the dignity of the body or coffin must be maintained, the action of several people pushing the coffin with a shout is unsuitable for a funeral that should proceed rigorously, and the indented coffin is especially forceful. There is a problem that the dignity of the body or coffin will be greatly lost if it moves at high speed on the roller conveyor and hits the stopper at the front end of the roller conveyor and makes a "dosun" sound.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to load a coffin on a hearse and take out a loaded coffin without giving a strong impact to the coffin and using as much human power as possible.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

The coffin loading device of the hearse of the present invention comprises a fixed frame, a movable frame, a carrier, a driving means, and a stopping means.

The fixed frame is provided with a plurality of pulleys inside each of a pair of parallel frames facing each other on the left and right, and hook receivers provided between the left and right frames, and is mounted on the vehicle body so as to extend in the front-rear direction. It is fixed.

The movable frame is movably engaged with the fixed frame in the front-rear direction by the pulley, and has a pair of left and right flat parallel traveling paths, a front end bumper plate, a rear end stopper, and a rearward direction. The hook has a length equivalent to that of the fixed frame, and includes a hook that can be engaged with the hook receiver at the limit of movement and an operating plate that releases the engagement of the hook by pressing from the rear.

The carrier is a body shorter than the movable frame,
Front and rear wheels provided on the left and right sides of the body, and an endless track that runs on the traveling path of the movable frame on the lower surface that is hung on the front and rear wheels on the left and right sides of the body and moves the coffin mounted on the upper surface An endless belt forming a belt conveyor for moving the movable frame forward and backward between the bumper plate at the front end and the stopper at the rear end on the movable frame, and pressing the operating plate by abutting the bumper plate. The hook is disengaged, and the hook moves forward integrally with the movable frame, and when the hook contacts the stopper, the hook retracts integrally with the movable frame.

The drive means is provided in the fixed frame and is configured to connect the carriages on the movable frame to allow the carriage to travel back and forth.

The stop means is configured to detect the movement limit positions before and after the movable frame and stop the driving of the drive means.

The drive means includes at least a sprocket arranged at each of a front end portion and a rear end portion of a fixed frame, an endless chain suspended between the sprockets, and a motor for sprocket rotation drive. You can

Further, the drive means includes a screw shaft rotatably supported at a front end portion and a rear end portion of the fixed frame,
A drive nut screwed onto the screw shaft and a motor for driving the screw shaft rotation may be provided.

[Action]

In the loading device for the coffin of the hearse of the present invention, the movable frame moves with respect to the fixed frame so that the movable frame overlaps with the fixed frame when moving forward, and the movable frame projects backward from the fixed frame when moving backward. The length of is changed by the change of the relative position of the movable frame with respect to the fixed frame. On the other hand, the carrier moves forward and backward in the movable frame. Therefore, when the movable frame is retracted by the driving means and the carrier is also retracted with respect to the movable frame, the rear part of the movable frame and the carrier located there are projected from the rear part or the rear part of the vehicle body. Be in position.

In this state, the hook of the movable frame is engaged with the hook receiver of the fixed frame so that the movable frame cannot move backward or move forward, and the rear end of the carrier is a stopper of the movable frame. Since it is in contact with the rear end of the movable frame, it does not extend rearward from the rear end of the movable frame. In this state, as described above, the carrier is located at the rear part of the vehicle body or at a position projecting rearward thereof, so that the front end of the coffin can be placed in a state of straddling the left and right endless belts at the rear part of the carrier. .

Next, when the carrier is moved forward with respect to the movable frame by the driving means, the endless belt of the carrier is endlessly rotated by friction with the traveling path of the movable frame to form an endless track to move the carrier forward. The endless belt advances the coffin loaded therein faster than the speed of the carrier itself by the endless rotation. In other words, the endless belt not only supports the traveling platform of the movable frame with respect to the movable frame and also has the conveyor function of moving the coffin installed forward, so that the front end is placed on the rear end of the endless belt. The coffin is moved forward at a speed twice as fast as that of the carrier, and the part supported by the endless belt is gradually lengthened toward the rear part of the coffin so that the entire load of the coffin is supported by the carrier. Become.

Here, the time from when the front end of the coffin is placed on the rear part of the carrier to the time when the entire load of the coffin is supported by the carrier is short because the coffin moves forward at twice the speed of the carrier, so It is sufficient for people who support the coffin to support the coffin for a short time after the front end of the coffin is placed on the carrier.

Next, when the carrier moves forward on the movable frame and the front end of the carrier contacts the bumper plate at the front end of the movable frame, the carrier supporting the coffin stops moving forward with respect to the movable frame. Also contacts the operating plate to release the hook of the movable frame from the hook receiver of the fixed frame. At this time, the front end of the coffin on the endless belt of the carrier reaches the front end of the carrier. Further, since the drive means continuously drives the carrier base to move forward, from this stage, the carrier frame is pushed while the carrier base is in contact with the bumper frame to advance the carrier base integrally with the movable frame. Since the speed of the coffin at this time is the same as the moving speed of the carrier, it becomes half the speed of the coffin at the time of moving the carrier and the carrier is quietly transported.

When the movable frame advances and reaches a state where it overlaps with the fixed frame, the advance of the coffin is completed, and in this state, the front end of the coffin is positioned at the front end of the fixed frame.

When lowering this coffin, the rear door of the hearse is opened, and the carrier is retracted by the driving means in a state where a person is waiting on the left and right of the door. Therefore, when the carrier moves backward on the movable frame and comes into contact with the stopper at the rear end of the movable frame, the carrier presses the movable frame and retracts integrally with the movable frame. When the carrier is retracted on the movable frame, the endless belt rotates the traveling path of the movable frame endlessly in the opposite direction to the opposite direction, and the carrier is retracted as an endless track and conveyor belt in the opposite direction and the coffin is removed. Move to the rear. When the movable frame retracts to a predetermined position while the carrier is located at the rear end, the movable frame stops, and the hook engages with the hook receiver of the fixed frame to lock the position of the movable frame. By this time, the coffin is taken out of the hearse in sequence from the rear, so the coffin is supported by several people from the rear. In addition, when the coffin moves backward from the inside of the hearse as described above, the carrier moves on the movable frame in the previous period of movement and moves backward with the endless belt at the same speed as in the case of the forward movement, and the movable stage in the latter stage of the movement. When it moves backward due to the movement of the frame, it moves at a low speed like the movable frame. Therefore, the people waiting on the rear side of the hearse can easily support the coffin, so that the coffin can be reliably transferred to the hands of several people.

They are formed so as to be opposed to each other with a regular interval and fixed. A plurality of pulleys 46 (five on each side in the figure), which are engaged with the guide rails 26 of the movable frame 6, are attached to the inner surfaces of the base frame 45 facing each other at intervals in the axial direction. The overall length is approximately the same as the guide rail 26 of the movable frame 6, and a bumper 47 is erected at the front end portion. The base plate 44 forming the floor of this fixed frame 7
A hook receiver 48 is erected at an intermediate position of the above so as to correspond to the movable hook 31 of the movable frame 6 via a mounting bracket 49.

The base plate 44 is further provided with a driving means 51 for connecting the carrier table 5 and driving it forward and backward. The drive means 51 of this embodiment is, as shown in FIG. 13, a speed reducer 52 with an automatic means switching lever 52A attached to the front lower surface side of the base plate 44, and an electric motor 53 powered by an on-vehicle battery attached to this. And a drive sprocket 54 fixed to the output shaft of the speed reducer 52 and arranged on the upper surface side of the base plate 44, and an adjustment bracket 55A for position adjustment by axially displacing the drive sprocket 54 to the front portion of the upper surface of the base plate 44. The tension sprocket 55 arranged as a unit and a chain 56 stretched between the two sprockets 54, 55 are provided. This chain 56
Engages with the connecting plate 23 on the lower surface of the carrier 5 described above. The rear tension sprocket 55 is used with a protective cover 60 attached.

Further, the fixed frame 7 has an inner surface of the front bumper 47,

The limit switches 57 and 58 are provided to detect the bumper plate 28 at the rear end, which is the traveling end of the movable frame 6, to drive the drive means 51. It functions as a stopping means to stop automatically (Fig. 12). The limit switch 57 on the front part is for stopping the feeding, and the limit switch 58 at the intermediate position is for stopping the feeding, and both are turned on when the movable frame 6 and the bumper plate 28 are contacted or separated. It is set to turn off.
The limit switch 58 and the hook receiver 48 at the intermediate position are both set to a level that does not interfere with the carrier 5. Although not shown, the limit switches 57, 58 and the electric motor 53 are connected to a power source and a handy type handheld switch box via a relay box.

At the rear end of the upper surface of the base plate 44 of this embodiment, a holder 61 for fixing the loaded coffin etc. is arranged in parallel with the tension sprocket 55. This is the 14th
As shown in the figure, the axially long box-shaped body 62
In addition, a large number of stopper insertion holes 63 are formed in a row in the axial direction at predetermined intervals according to various coffin dimensions. The hole 64 at the lower end of the end is a mounting hole into which the insertion portion 65A of the extension holder 65 provided to accommodate an oversized coffin is inserted. The load stopper 66 to be inserted into the stopper insertion hole 63 has a screw shaft 70 which is orthogonal to the upper end of a shaft 69 having an insertion portion 67 and a flange 68 at the lower end, and a screw shaft 70 at one end thereof. A pressing disk 71 is attached, and an operation knob 72 is fixed to the opposite end.

The movable frame 6 is assembled to the fixed frame 7 configured as described above, and the carrier 5 is further incorporated into the movable frame 6 to form the loading device 1 as shown in FIG. . The figure shows the most shortened loading completion state (or initial standby state).

Next, the operation will be described.

FIG. 16 shows an operation cycle of the stacking apparatus 1, where I is a carry-in completed state (or initial standby state), II is a carry-out intermediate state, III is a carry-out completed state (or carry-in standby state), and IV is carry-in. It is in an intermediate state.

In the initial standby state of I, when the transfer table movement switch of the hand switch box (not shown) is put in the sending direction, the electric motor 53 of the drive device 51 starts and the drive sprocket 54 rotates in the predetermined direction via the speed reducer 52. To drive. Carrier 5
Is pulled by the chain 56 toward the rear R side. The endless belt 19 of the carrier 5 rolls on the traveling path 25 of the movable frame 6, and the carrier 5 moves to the rear R side. Eventually, the endless belt 19 of the carrier 5 comes into contact with the guide roller 29 at the tip of the movable frame 6 (II unloading intermediate state). After that, the carrier 5 and the movable frame 6 move simultaneously and integrally. Then, when the bumper plate 28 of the movable frame 6 comes into contact with the intermediate limit switch 58 and is turned on, the electric motor 53 is stopped, the movement of the carrier 5 and the movable frame 6 is stopped, and the loading standby state of III is entered. At this time, at about the same time,
The hook receiver 48 collides with the inclined surface 43 of the movable hook 31 provided on the movable frame 6. As a result, the hook plate 37 of the movable hook 31 is once pushed up, and then pushed back by the coil spring 39 to elastically return to engage the hook receiver 48 with the notch 42 of the hook plate 37.

In this state of III, one end of a coffin etc. that has been manually carried is placed on the endless belt 19 of the carrier 5. that time,
Even if the carrier table 5 is pressed forward, the movable frame 31 does not move because the movable hook 31 and the hook receiver 48 are engaged with each other.

After confirming that the coffin front part has been placed, when the transport table movement switch of the hand switch box is put in the feeding direction (loading direction), the electric motor 53 of the drive device 51 starts in the reverse rotation direction, and the transport table 5 moves to the front. It is towed by the chain 56 toward the F side. As a result, the endless belt 19 starts rolling in the opposite direction to the previous one, and travels on the traveling path 25 of the movable frame 6 while feeding the coffin on which the end portion is placed. That is,
The endless belt 19 simultaneously functions as a coffin transport belt and a traveling belt. The front bumper 20 of the carriage 5 which continues to move forward eventually collides with the operating plate 38 of the movable hook 31 as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18. As a result, the hook plate 37 of the movable hook 31 retracts upward and the engagement with the hook receiver 48 is released (IV carrying-in intermediate state). After that, the movable frame 6 is pushed by the bumper 20 that is in contact with the bumper plate 28, and starts to move forward integrally with the transport table 5 that transports the coffin. Eventually, the bumper plate 28 of the movable frame 6 comes into contact with the limit switch 57 attached to the rear end bumper 47 of the fixed frame 7 to operate, the electric motor 53 is stopped, and the retreat of the carrier 5 and the movable frame 6 is stopped. , I
Will be in the loading completed state.

After the coffin has been carried into the vehicle, the load stop stopper 66 is set on the holder 61 according to the size of the coffin, and the coffin is pressed by the operation knob 72 and fixed by pressing the disk 71.

At the time of unloading, if the state of I is passed through the intermediate state and the state of III is completed as described above, the endless belt 19
The upper coffin can be easily unloaded.

When the above-mentioned cycle is manually performed due to a malfunction of the automatic drive means 51 or other reasons, the automatic manual switching lever of the speed reducer 52 is switched to manual. In that case, the carriage 5 is manually moved by grasping the grip bar 27. When the carrier table 5 is manually pulled out from the stacking device 1 in the state I, the carrier table 5 first travels alone on the movable frame 6 and is locked by the guide rollers 29, as in the case of the electric drive, and thereafter. Is accompanied by a movable frame 6. When the movable frame 6 moves for a predetermined section, the bumper plate 28 comes into contact with the smitt switch 58, but the switch does not operate. However, at this time, the movable hook 31 of the movable frame 6 is replaced by the hook receiver 48 of the fixed frame 7.
Therefore, both the carrier 5 and the movable frame 6 can be stopped at a predetermined movement limit position. During manual feeding, the engagement between the movable hook 31 and the hook receiver 48 is released in the same manner as during automatic operation.

As described above, in the above operation cycle, the carrier table 5 with the endless belt 19 that serves both as carrier and traveling is used.
Since the travel distance of is about half of the total shipping distance,
The entire loading device 1 can be formed lightweight and compact.

The movement of the carrier table 5 and the transportation of the coffin are performed by the endless belt 19 made of synthetic rubber or plastic that serves both transportation and running, so that it can be performed quietly and stably. Further, since the belt surface has a non-slip structure with unevenness, it can be safely transported.

The carrier table 5, the movable frame 6, and the fixed frame 7 can all be easily manufactured using shaped steel or plate material, and can be mass-produced at low cost.

In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the case where it is mounted on a hearse and loaded with a coffin etc. is described, but it is not limited to this, and it can be suitably used as a general luggage loading device mounted on a truck freight car and other vehicles. Of course.

Further, although the holder for fixing and holding the loaded objects is a manual type, it may be an automatic type.

Further, instead of the drive means 51 using the chain of the above-mentioned embodiment, the drive means is a screw shaft rotatably supported at the front end portion and the rear end portion of the fixed frame, and a carrier table screwed to the screw shaft. It is also possible to adopt a screw drive system provided with a drive nut attached to the motor and a motor for rotating the screw shaft.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, according to the present invention, the movable frame moves relative to the fixed frame of the hearse in the hearse to expand and contract in the front-rear direction as a whole, and further the carrier table shorter than this moves forward and backward in the movable frame. To do. For these movements, the carrier is continuously moved between the rear end of the movable frame moved rearward and the front end of the movable frame moved forward by the driving means between the fixed frame and the carrier. The movable frame moves integrally with the carrier during a part of the moving process of the carrier.

The rear part of the movable frame, which is moved rearward with respect to the fixed frame, and the carrier table located at the rear part are located at the rear part of the vehicle body or at a position overhanging the rear part from the rear part. When the front end of the coffin is placed on the rear part of the belt and the carrier is moved forward by the driving means, the endless belt suspends the traveling function for the combined frame and the conveyor function for moving the coffin loaded therein. The coffin whose front end is placed on the rear end of the endless belt advances at twice the moving speed of the carrier, and the entire load of the coffin is immediately supported by the carrier. Therefore, those who support the coffin need only support the coffin for a short time after placing the front end of the coffin on the carrier.

Next, when the carrier hits the bumper plate at the front end of the movable frame, the endless belt stops and the carrier pushes the movable frame to continue moving forward. For this reason, since the carriage moves forward at the same speed as before, the coffin moves forward at a speed half that of the previous speed and quietly advances to the front end of the fixed frame. Therefore, while maintaining the dignity of the coffin, it is possible to easily place the coffin in the hearse room of the hearse.

When lowering this coffin, open the rear door of the hearse and move the carrier back with the driving means while people are waiting to the left and right of the door. Then, the endless belt retreats at a high speed as in the case of the forward movement, and when the movable frame moves backward in the latter stage of the movement, the endless belt moves at the same low speed as the movable frame. For this reason, the people standing by behind the hearse can easily support the coffin, so that the coffin can be reliably and safely transferred to the hands of several people while maintaining the dignity of the coffin. There is.
