Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a residual stem processing apparatus for treating residual stems such as tobacco remaining in ridges.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a residual stem treatment device for cigarettes and the like left on the ridges, the one found in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 6-16642 is known. This residual stem processing device is a screw type root extractor for extracting the residual stem from the ridge, a conveyer conveys the residual stem extracted from the ridge by the screw type extractor in a collapsed state, and the residual stem conveyed by the convey conveyor. And a cutting means for shredding. The cutting means is composed of a cutter and a pair of biting rollers that bites the residual trunk from the end of the conveyor and sends it to the cutter.

As a result, first, the root portion of the residual trunk is extracted by the screw type root extractor provided in the front and is sent to the conveyor provided behind it. At this time, the residual trunk extracted from the ridge by the screw type root extractor is sent to the conveyor in a laid state due to the reaction of being pulled into the screw type root extractor. The conveyor conveys the remaining trunk in the laid state toward the cutting means. The cutting means shreds the residual trunk drawn by the biting roller with a cutter.

Thus, when the residual stem extracted from the ridges is conveyed to the cutting device, it is preferable to feed it into the biting roller of the cutting means along the longitudinal direction of the residual stem.

However, with the screw type root extractor, it is difficult to maintain the posture of the residual trunk constant due to the impact at the time of taking in, and the longitudinal direction of the residual trunk is accurately set as the conveying direction even when the residual trunk is in a lying state. In some cases, such import is not performed. Therefore, the remaining trunks sent to the conveyor are
There is a problem in that a part of the trunk that protrudes from the conveyor may be conveyed in such a posture that the part of the stem sticks out inside the machine body, and smooth conveyance cannot be expected, resulting in reduced work efficiency.

Further, the biting rollers are provided perpendicular to the conveying direction and parallel to each other above and below the biting rollers. It is forced to rotate.

However, in the biting roller having such a structure, when the thickness of the residual trunk is too large, defective biting of the residual trunk is likely to occur, and in some cases, a strong load is applied to the biting roller. Stop. For this reason, there is a disadvantage that smooth shredding cannot be performed and work efficiency is reduced.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, the present invention ensures that the posture of a trunk to be conveyed by a conveyor is in a laid state and that the trunk is smoothly shredded. An object of the present invention is to provide a residual trunk processing device capable of improving work efficiency.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a residual trunk withdrawal mechanism for withdrawing the residual trunk remaining on the ridges, and the withdrawal mechanism extracts the residual trunk. In the residual trunk processing device provided with cutting means for finely cutting the residual trunk in the rear part of the traveling machine body, the extraction mechanism includes a feeder for nipping and conveying the residual trunk extracted from the ridges, and the cutting means is A biting means for pinching the residual trunk by a pair of rollers to feed the residual trunk while crushing the residual trunk, and a cutter for shredding the residual trunk sent from the biting means, and leaving the feeder from the feeder to the residual means. A conveyor for conveying the trunk is provided, and the remaining trunk conveyed by the feeder in a standing posture is laid down at the terminal end of the feeder, and the conveying direction of the conveyor and the longitudinal direction of the remaining trunk Wherein the bets are provided with transfer means for transferring the Zanmiki the conveyor to match.

According to the present invention, first, the residual trunk remaining on the ridges is extracted by the residual trunk extraction mechanism provided in the front portion of the traveling machine body. The feeder provided for the mechanism for pulling out the residual trunk holds the extracted residual trunk in a standing posture and conveys it. As a result, the remaining trunk is transported while maintaining its standing posture.

Next, the residual trunk conveyed by the feeder is transferred to a conveyor for conveying the residual trunk toward the cutting means. At this time, the transfer means transfers the residual trunk in the standing posture to its longitudinal direction. The posture is changed so that the direction matches the transport direction of the transport conveyor. As a result, the transfer conveyor can transfer the remaining trunk in the laid state along its longitudinal direction.

Next, the residual trunk conveyed by the conveyor is sandwiched by the biting rollers of the cutting means, and the residual trunk is crushed and sent to the cutter. At this time, the conveyor conveys the remaining trunk in the lying posture along the longitudinal direction to the biting roller. This allows the biting roller to bite the residual stem in a laid-down posture with its longitudinal direction oriented in the conveying direction, so that the residual stem can be smoothly bitten and sent toward the cutter, improving work efficiency. can do.

The transfer means includes a regulating member for abutting one end of the remaining stem in the longitudinal direction at the position where the feeder opens the remaining stem, and a regulating member for regulating the movement of the one end. A rotation boss for locking the other end of the remaining trunk whose movement is restricted and forcibly rotating the other end in a direction of sending the other end to the transfer conveyor, wherein the transfer conveyor has a rotation boss of the transfer means. It is characterized in that the other end of the remaining trunk sent via the above is conveyed in a laid state toward the downstream side.

According to the transfer means, first, at the position immediately before the feeder opens the residual trunk, the movement of one end of the residual trunk is regulated by the regulating member. As a result, the residual trunk is sent out in the transport direction before the portion where the other end is regulated by the transport of the feeder. Next, when the feeder opens the residual trunk, the other end of the residual trunk is hooked by the rotary boss and is further sent out, so that the residual trunk is reliably separated from the feeder. As a result, the residual trunk conveyed to the end of the feeder can be swiftly and reliably sent to the conveying conveyor in the lying posture.

In the transfer means, the regulating member is
The feeder is provided at a position where it abuts the lower side of the residual trunk at the position where the residual trunk is opened, and restricts the movement of the root portion of the residual trunk. The upper side of the remaining trunk is provided at a position where the upper side of the remaining trunk is hooked, and the upper side of the remaining trunk is sent to the conveyor prior to the root of the trunk, and the conveyor conveys the rotary boss of the transfer means. It is preferable that the upper end of the remaining trunk sent via the above is conveyed in a laid state in which the upper end is directed toward the downstream side.

As a result, when the transfer means is to lay down the residual trunk conveyed by the conveyor, the transfer means can be in a laid posture in which the root of the residual trunk is directed toward the upstream side.
That is, first, at the position immediately before the feeder opens the residual trunk, the regulation member regulates the movement of the lower trunk including the root portion of the residual trunk. As a result, the upper trunk side of the residual trunk is sent out in the carrying direction before the lower trunk side by the feeder carrying. Next, when the feeder opens the residual trunk, the rotary boss hooks the upper side of the residual trunk and feeds it further, so that the residual trunk is reliably separated from the feeder. As a result, the remaining trunk at the end of the feeder can be quickly and reliably transferred to the transfer conveyor.

Then, the upper side of the residual trunk sent out by the rotary boss is guided to the conveyor prior to the root,
Then, subsequently, the root portion of the residual trunk separated from the regulating member is guided to the transport conveyor. In this way, on the transport conveyor, the longitudinal direction of the remaining trunk is transported in a posture along the transport direction. Then, the residual trunk conveyed by the conveyor is accurately conveyed toward the cutting means. Then, the biting roller of the cutting means starts biting prior to the root portion on the relatively thin upper side of the residual trunk, and sequentially bites the soft root portion from the thin portion, so that the residual trunk can be smoothly bited. .

The biting means is provided with a pair of cylindrical rollers that are forced to rotate so as to face each other by a pair of rotating shafts which are parallel to each other, and the circumferential wall of each roller is provided with radially engaging biting teeth. In addition, it is preferable that at least one of the rollers has a vertical split blade on the side surface of the engaging teeth of the roller so as to project in the rotation direction of the roller. The vertical splitting blade bites into the residual trunk and reliably pulls it in, and cuts the residual trunk vertically to facilitate biting. As a result, it is possible to prevent the roller from being jammed or stopped.

The transfer conveyor is provided with a guide path having a through hole through which soil attached to the remaining trunk falls, extending in the loading direction of the remaining trunk, a pair of side walls standing on both sides of the guide path, and the guide path. And a conveyor belt formed by endlessly connecting a plurality of plate-like members that rotate along the longitudinal direction and convey the remaining trunk in the longitudinal direction.

The residual trunk conveyed by the feeder is laid down by the transfer means and guided to the conveyer. At this time, if soil adheres to the root of the remaining trunk, it will fall onto the conveyor belt or guideway. Since the transport belt is formed by endlessly connecting a plurality of plate-shaped members with a space therebetween, it is possible to prevent the dropped soil from remaining on the transport belt by dropping the plate-shaped members from the space. Further, the soil dropped from the conveyor belt is dropped to the guide path, but is prevented from falling through the through hole and dropping from the guide path and remaining on the guide path. In this way, even if the soil attached to the root of the remaining trunk of the conveyor is dropped, it does not remain on the conveyor belt or the guide path, so that the rotation of the conveyor belt is not blocked by the soil. The remaining trunk can be transported smoothly.

It is preferable that the transfer conveyor includes a tension applying means for applying a tension to the transfer belt. By applying tension to the conveyor belt by the tension applying means, extension and slack of the conveyor belt can be removed. Therefore, the detachment of the conveyor belt caused by the extension and slack of the conveyor belt can be reliably prevented, and the work efficiency can be prevented from lowering due to the detachment of the conveyor belt.
