SOLUTION: Elastic bodies 7 made of rubber or the like for accurately discharging air are fitted on the surface of two parallel exhaust rollers 1 arranged nearby, Guide rollers 32 are installed perpendicularly to the exhaust rollers 1 in the front of the exhaust rollers 1 so that a balloon fabric 10 is not protruded from the exhaust rollers 1. The balloon fabric 10 squeezed by two exhaust rollers 1 is wound by a storage roller 3. Air can be accurately and easily discharged from an air sac by the exhaust rollers 1, and the balloon fabric 10 can be easily stored by the storage roller 3.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to the storage of balloons, envelopes and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When storing a conventional balloon or airship, after opening the exhaust valve, waiting for the air to naturally escape, or pushing out the air to some extent by a person pushing the air bag from above, the ball is pushed manually. The skin was folded to reduce the volume, and it was pushed into a large cloth bag for storage.

[0003]

Although the conventional balloons and the envelopes of an airship are all stored manually, the envelopes have a low air permeability due to the basic properties of the envelopes. Needed a lot of work. In addition, since the envelope has a considerable area and weighs 100-150 kg, it was very hard work to fold it and pack it in a storage bag or move it. For this reason, a minimum of 3 is required for storing the skin.
It took about an hour because it needed about a few people.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a bulb-storing machine that pushes air out of the bulb in a more rational and efficient manner and can be quickly stored by a small number of people.

The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will be more apparent when the following description is read in view of the accompanying drawings. However, the drawings are for explanation only and do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the present invention, two parallel exhaust rollers which are close to each other,
The storage container for winding the extruded skin is composed of a storage device.

[0007]

With the above-described capsule storage device, when air is passed through the envelope while rotating the roller between one end of the envelope on the side opposite to the exhaust valve and the exhaust roller, the air inside the envelope is removed. The exhaust roller gradually pushes it toward the exhaust port, and finally it is forcedly exhausted from the exhaust port. On the other hand, since the bulb extruded from the exhaust roller is pushed by the roller to form a Peshanko, it can be easily wound around the storage roller.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the first embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 1 denotes an exhaust roller composed of two parallel rollers in close proximity to each other, and a rubber or the like is provided on the surface thereof so that air can be more accurately pushed out. The elastic body 7 is attached. In front of the exhaust roller 1, the guide roller 2 is installed perpendicularly to the exhaust roller 1 so that the skin 14 does not protrude from the exhaust roller 1. However, the guide roller 2 does not necessarily have to be a roller, and may be a rod-shaped guide bar or the like. The exhaust roller 1 is fixed to the base 4 by an exhaust roller support rod 5, but the distance between the two rollers may be fixed, may be adjustable with screws, or may be a spring or the like. It may be a method of pressing by.

The storage roller 3 is provided with a claw 9 for hooking one end of a bulb or a cable, but it may be fixed by a fixing metal fitting such as a carabiner or a rope. Further, the winding direction may be either direction. Storage roller 3
Is fixed to the base 4 by the storage roller support rod 6, but may be detachable from the storage roller support rod 6.

In the example of this figure, both the exhaust roller 1 and the storage roller 3 are of the manual type, and the handle 8 is operated to push out the air and wind the envelope.
Of course, it may be a power type.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the first embodiment of the present invention in which the envelope 10 is wound up. The air in the air sac is gradually pushed toward the exhaust port 11 by the exhaust roller 1, and the portion of the skin that has passed through the exhaust roller 1 becomes Peshanko and is wound around the storage roller 3.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, which is an example in which the envelope housing machine of the first embodiment is mounted on the bed 14 of the storage truck 13. In this way, the operation of the roller can be easily performed by power, and the envelope storage device and the contained envelope can be easily moved. Further, if the storage roller 3 is detachable, it is possible to continuously store a number of hot air balloons and skins of a thermal airship with this single storage truck.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a third embodiment of the present invention, in which a guide plate 15 is attached to a storage roller. In this way, the envelope 10 does not stick out from the storage roller 3 during winding, and is stable even if the thickness of winding increases. Further, when the storage roller 3 is detachable, if the guide plate 15 is disk-shaped and has a sufficient size, the removed storage roller 3 can be easily rolled and moved. Further, if the guide plate retainer 16 is formed in the shape as shown in the figure and the constriction 17 is provided, a rope or the like can be hooked on this and the storage roller 3 can be moved more easily.

[0015]

As is apparent from the above description, the following effects can be obtained in the present invention.

(1) Air can be accurately and easily extruded from the air sac by the roller.

(2) The ball skin can be easily stored by winding it on a roller.

(3) A small number of people can quickly and quickly store the envelope.

(4) By attaching a circular guide plate to the detachable storage roller and rolling it, the rolled envelope can be easily moved.

(5) The roll can be easily developed by rolling the storage roller that stores the skin even when it is started up.
