Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a transfer device that can transfer a transfer object such as a tile by appropriately changing its direction.

(Prior art and its problem) Conventionally, for example, when transferring a tile or the like on a belt conveyor, it is necessary to transfer it to another belt conveyor in order to change the transfer direction, but conventionally, when transferring it to another conveyor, the tile etc. However, there is no device that can reliably and satisfactorily change the direction, and its appearance has been desired.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been devised in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object thereof is not to provide a transfer device that can change direction satisfactorily and reliably, and the gist thereof is 1st with different feed direction
Two rotatable discs are vertically arranged substantially parallel to each other between the second conveyors, and the upper disc is set to be positionally adjustable with respect to the lower disc. When the transfer material sent by the conveyor is placed on the lower disk and transferred to the second conveyor side, the outer peripheral edge of the upper disk is brought into contact with the transfer object and the transfer direction is set. Is configured so that it can determine.

(Operation) Two discs are provided between the first and second conveyors, and a transfer object sent by the first conveyor is placed on the lower disc, and the lower circle is placed. The transferred object can be transferred to the second conveyor side by the rotation of the plate. At this time, the outer peripheral edge of the upper disk abuts on the transferred object to determine the direction of the transferred object, and the transferred object is favorably transferred to the second conveyor side. It can guide the transported object to ensure the direction change of the transported object, adjust the position of the upper disk appropriately according to the type of the transported object and the transport direction, and transport the transported object in all directions. It can be reliably oriented and transferred.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of the transfer device, and FIG. 2 is a schematic side view of the transfer device. Further, FIG. 3 is a perspective configuration diagram for explaining the operation.

In the figure, the belt conveyors 1 and 2 are arranged so that the transfer directions thereof are deviated from each other, and in this example, the tiles T can be arranged in a row on the first belt conveyor 1 and transferred. Thus, the tiles T can be vertically transferred on the second belt conveyor 2 side in a lying state.

A mounting disc 3 and a guide disc 4 are vertically arranged between the rear end of the belt conveyor 1 and the front end of the belt conveyor 2, and the mounting disc 3 and the guide disc 4 are respectively arranged. It is rotatable, and the mounting disk 3 has its peripheral portion hung between the belt conveyor 1 and the belt conveyor 2. In this example, the peripheral portion is arranged below the belt conveyor 1. In addition, the peripheral portion is arranged above the belt conveyor 2. or,
The guide disk 4 is provided at a position eccentric with respect to the mounting disk 3 described above, and the rotation speed of the guide disk 4 is set higher than the rotation speed of the mounting disk 3 described above. Board 4
The peripheral speed of is higher than that of the mounting disk 3. The guide disc 4 is supported by an arm member or the like (not shown), and its position can be adjusted in the X and Y directions in the horizontal plane through the arm member and the like.

In such a schematic structure, the tiles T, which are transferred while standing on the belt conveyor 1, fall on the mounting disk 3 rotating at the rear end thereof, and when they fall, they are inverted by 90 ° and mounted. The disk 3 is laid on the disk 3 and is sent to the belt conveyor 2 as the mounting disk 3 rotates. At this time, the outer peripheral edge of the guide disk 4 abuts on the side surface side of the tile T, and the guide disk 4 determines the transfer direction of the tile T by its rotation, and the guide disk 4 can be aligned on the longitudinal axis of the belt conveyor 2. The tiles can be placed on the belt conveyor 2, and the tiles are correctly oriented, and the tiles are transported in an organized state.

In such a transfer device, when the shapes of the tiles T are different, the guide disc 4 can be appropriately adjusted in the X and Y directions so as to correspond to each other. Even when the feeding direction of No. 2 is changed, the position of the guide disk 4 can be adjusted appropriately corresponding to the feeding direction and the tile T can be accurately oriented and fed to the belt conveyor 2 side.

In addition, in this example, although the description has been given as the transfer device of the tile T, the same structure can be adopted not only for the tile T but also for another transfer object.

(Effects of the Invention) In the transfer device of the present invention, two rotatable discs are arranged substantially parallel to each other between the first and second conveyors having different feeding directions. The disc on the upper side of the plate is set to be adjustable in position, and when the transferred material sent by the first conveyor is placed on the disc on the lower side and transferred to the second conveyor side, Since the outer peripheral edge of the upper disc is brought into contact with the transported object so that the transport direction can be determined, the position of the upper disc can be adjusted in correspondence with the feeding directions of the first and second conveyors. The baffle plate can be adjusted appropriately and appropriately corresponded to all the feeding directions and the shapes of the transferred objects so that the transferred objects can be accurately oriented to be redirected from the first conveyor to the second conveyor and sent out. Accurately sends the transported object in all directions without requiring It has the effect of it is theft.
