Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the danger caused when a hand is put in from a feeding port, to continuously feed and cut empty cans or the like and to automatically discharge bottles or the like with respect to a shredder for various kinds of containers such as empty cans. SOLUTION: A feeding cylinder 4 is arranged below a feeding port 1 so that it may be normally held vertically. A shutter 2 is freely openably and closably fitted to the feeding port 1. A mechanism which is associated with the closing of the upper shutter to move the feeding cylinder 4 while inclined so that it may be positioned to above cutters 8 is provided. A receiving member 6 for various kinds of containers such as empty cans is fitted to below the feeding port 1. A sensor is for detecting things that cannot be cut such as bottles in the feeding port 4 is arranged, and the lower receiving member 6 is rotate associated with a signal of the sensor to discharge the things such as bottles that cannot be cut.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a shredder device for various containers such as empty cans, and more particularly, to preventing danger when a hand is inserted through an inlet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various container shredder devices such as empty cans have a motor stopped when a cutter is rotated through a charging port, a shutter is provided at a lower portion of a charging material passage, and a charging material is placed on the shutter. This was detected by a sensor and the shutter was opened.

[0003]

In the above prior art,
The former is designed to stop the motor and stop the rotation of the cutter when charging the input material. However, the motor is turned off by turning off the power and is not a complete measure. The time required for shredding is too long by stopping individually. In the latter case, the distance from the cutter must be farther than the maximum height of the input material in order to close the shutter during cutting of the input material. However, there is a problem that the size becomes larger.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to dispose a charging cylinder below a charging port so that the charging cylinder can always be held vertically, and to open and close a shutter at the charging port. A mechanism for tilting the loading cylinder so that it is located above the cutter in conjunction with the mounting and closing of the upper shutter,
Attach the receiving members of various containers such as empty cans to the lower part of the input port,
A sensor for detecting an uncut object such as a bottle in the charging cylinder is provided, and the lower receiving member is rotated in conjunction with a detection signal of the sensor to discharge the uncut object such as a bottle. And

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 denotes an input port for various containers such as empty cans, reference numeral 2 denotes an input port shutter, and reference numeral 3 denotes a sensor for detecting whether or not an empty can is placed on the input port shutter 2. A loading cylinder 4 is disposed below the loading shutter 2 so that the loading cylinder 4 can be tilted to the right around a pin 5 on one side. Reference numeral 6 denotes an empty can receiving member which closes the lower opening 7 when the charging cylinder 4 is at the vertical position, and rotates around a pin 6 'to open the lower opening. 8 is a pair of combined cutters, 9 is a stopper for the tilted charging cylinder 4, and 10 is a sensor hole. The empty can receiving member 6 is made of one or more rod-shaped arms or a member such as a net, and has a structure in which the bottom of the cylinder is not sealed.

Next, the operation will be described. The empty can 11 is placed on the input shutter 2 and the cutter 8 is operated.
The empty can 11 is detected by the sensor 3 and the opening shutter 2 is opened as shown in FIG. 1, so that the empty can 11 falls in the vertically positioned charging cylinder 4 and is placed on the empty can receiving member 6 below. At this time, the pebbles and the like are discharged from the gap without getting on the empty can receiving member 6. When the sensor 3 detects that there is no hand or empty can in the inlet, the inlet shutter 2 is closed. The loading cylinder 4 is tilted about the pin 5 in the direction of the cutter 8 as shown in FIG.
Lock to stopper 9. And empty can 1 in charging cylinder 4
1 is dropped on a pair of cutters 8 and cut. When the empty can 11 passes through the sensor hole 10, the charging cylinder 4 returns to the vertical position. When a non-cuttable input material such as a bottle is input, a metal sensor or a micro switch detects the input and turns the lower empty can receiving member 6 upward as shown in FIG. 3 or downward as shown in FIG. To open and discharge downward. In addition, this invention can be used for various container shredders, such as a PET bottle, other than an empty can.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the loading cylinder is disposed below the loading port so that it can be always held vertically, a shutter is attached to the loading port so as to be openable and closable, and the loading cylinder is connected to the upper shutter closing port. Equipped with a mechanism for tilting so as to be positioned above, mounting receiving members for various containers such as empty cans at the lower part of the charging port, disposing a sensor for detecting uncuttable objects such as bottles in the charging cylinder, and detecting signals from the sensor. The lower receiving member is rotated in conjunction with the above, so that uncut materials such as bottles are discharged, so that the shutter is opened, the charged material is loaded, the charging cylinder is tilted, and the empty can is dropped and cut on the cutter. By returning the charging cylinder to its original vertical position and opening and closing the shutter, any number of charged materials can be cut continuously, and there is no need to stop the motor during this time. From the mouth Since no Isuzu Ka and the cutter even taking a safe, it can be automatically discharged even non-cleavable bottles or the like.
