The paper making device 4, the dewatering device 5, the peeling device 7, the screen removal device 8, and the cleaning device 9 are the locking pieces 2 provided on the screen conveyor 2.
They are arranged at a distance that is an integral multiple of the pitch of 9.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a peeling detector which receives light from, for example, a light source 101 with a light receiver 102, and if the glue is sent to the glue tank M with dry glue still attached, the light to the light receiver 102 is blocked and an alarm is issued.

Note that the screen removal device 8 can also be provided between the cleaning device 9 and the ascending side 28 of the screen conveyor.

Next, to explain the manufacturing process of the dry glue W, first, a desired glue cage M is placed in a state in which the desired glue cage M is slightly pulled in the direction perpendicular to the straw on the ascending side 28 during the stop period of feeding between the cage conveyor 2. and the screen stopper piece 3 of the screen frame 3 between each person.
Insert and install 4.

When this glue tank M is sent to the paper making device 4, the paper making frame 45
and a water storage box 46 between which the supply pump 4 is fed from the storage tank 41.
3, the raw paste liquid sent to the auxiliary tank 42 is transferred to the papermaking frame 45.
The water in the water storage box 46 is passed up and down the paste basin M by the lifting device 47 to complete the papermaking process.
5 and the water storage box 46 are pulled up and down from the glue tank M.

Next, by driving the cage conveyor 2, the glue cage M that has completed the papermaking process is sent to the dewatering device 5, and in the dewatering step, the operating device 53. The water-absorbing material 51.5 is pressed from above and below to drain water, and then the operating device 53.54 is used to remove the water-absorbing material 51.5.
2 is removed from the cage M, moisture is adsorbed by the water absorbing materials 51 and 52 to complete the dehydration process.

In the example, the dehydration step is performed twice.

The screen frame 3 that has completed the dewatering process is transferred to the drying conveyor 61 near the end of the upper horizontal section 25 of the screen conveyor 2, and is circulated through the drying device 6 by the drying conveyor 61 to finish the drying process and transfer to the drying screen M. is transferred from the drying conveyor 61 to the lower horizontal section 27 of the screen conveyor 2 with the surface to which the dried glue W is attached facing downward, and the peeling device 7
sent to.

In the peeling process, the dry glue W is sucked by the vacuum suction device 73 from below the glue tank M, and the lever 71 is pressed from above the glue tank M, and the glue W is reciprocated along the back surface of the glue tank M by the operating device 72. , the dried glue W is peeled off from the glue pen M by partially deforming the glue pen M.

The peeled dry glue W is taken out and stored outside the machine by a take-out conveyor 74.

If the cage removing device 8 is stopped, the cage frame 3 is sent to the cleaning device, and as the cage conveyor 2 moves, rotating brushes 91 and 92 are pressed against both sides of the cage M, and the shower 93 sprays washing water. Water is poured to clean the paste tank M, and the paste is sent to the papermaking device again.

In such a dry glue manufacturing process, when it becomes necessary to replace the glue cage M, the cage removing device 8 is activated.

Therefore, when the screen frame 3 is sent to the screen removal device 8 by the intermittent feeding of the screen conveyor 2, the push-out piece 81 is pushed out downward via the connecting rod 83 by the push-out device 84,
The inside of the part of the screen frame 3 supported by the screen stopper piece 34 contacts the top surface of the glue screen to push down the glue screen M, and the glue screen M is removed from the screen stopper piece 34 and dropped onto a conveyor 85.

If a locking claw 82 is provided at the tip of the push-out piece 81 and engaged between the bars, even if one side of the glue cage quickly comes off the cage stopper piece 34, the glue cage can be removed reliably without hanging down. .

The conveyor 85 conveys the dropped glue cage to the outside of the machine and stores it.

This screen removal process can be performed simultaneously during the stoppage of intermittent operation with the paper making, dewatering, and peeling devices installed at each position of the screen conveyor 2, but when all the screens are replaced at once, In this case, it is possible to stop the other devices and operate only the screen removal device 8. In this case, the speed of the drive motor 24 is changed and the screen conveyor 2 is operated for a short time corresponding to the operating time of the screen removal device 8. Efficient drive operation can be achieved by intermittent stops.

FIG. 7 shows another embodiment of the screen removal device 8, in which the push-out piece 81 is composed of two diagonal plates that are opened in a U-shape in accordance with the mounting direction of the screen stopper piece 34. , is slidably supported in a diagonal fitting groove 87 provided in a fixed frame 86 supported by the machine frame 1, and the upper end of this pushing piece 81 is attached to a connecting rod 83 that is moved up and down by an extrusion device 84. A spring 89 is used to contact and engage the lower surface of the fixed push-down plate 88.

Therefore, when the extrusion piece 81 is pushed down by the extrusion device 84 via the connecting rod 83 and the push-down plate 88,
The push-out piece 81 pushes down both ends of the glue cage M along the fitting groove 87 in a diagonal direction along the stopper piece 34, and the glue cage M can be reliably removed from the stopper piece 34 of the screen frame 3.

As described above, the present invention comprises a pair of endless chains arranged in parallel, and includes a cage conveyor having an upper horizontal part, a descending side part, a lower horizontal part, and an ascending side part, and a cage stopper for holding the cage. A cage frame with a frame is engaged with the cage conveyor at a predetermined interval by a locking piece so as to be easily attached and detached, and a glue cage fixed to the cage is held in an upper horizontal part of the cage conveyor. Equipped with a paper-making device that makes paper by sandwiching it, and a dehydration device that presses water-absorbing material from above and below the paste basin to dehydrate it.
A drying device is provided near the descending side of the screen conveyor, and a drying conveyor for storing and circulating a large number of screen frames is provided in the drying device. After the frame is transferred and the screen frame is circulated in the drying device, the screen frame is transferred from the drying conveyor to the lower horizontal part of the screen conveyor with the dry glue surface facing downward, and the screen frame is In a dry seaweed manufacturing device that is equipped with a peeling device that peels dry glue from a seaweed screen transferred to a conveyor, a screen removal device that removes the glue screen from the screen frame is located between the peeling device and the rising side of the screen conveyor. A washing device for cleaning the cages and the cages is installed along the lower horizontal part of the cage conveyor at the stop position of each cage, and the cage removal device can be operated separately from other devices such as dewatering and peeling devices. Therefore, when a specified glue cage is neatly attached to the ascending side of the cage conveyor and the same glue cage is used repeatedly, it is sufficient to stop the cage removal device, and depending on the conditions of raw glue, it is necessary to maintain quality. When it is necessary to replace the glue cage, the cage removal device can be used to automatically remove the cage while the cage conveyor is stopped intermittently. When carrying out only drying, the operation of each device other than the screen removing device is stopped, and the screen conveyor is driven intermittently to match the short operating time of only the screen removing device. Since all the cages can be efficiently removed from the cage frame without requiring any human intervention, the cages can be easily replaced in a timely manner and with only one or two people. It is possible to use a glue tank and set working hours that are suitable for maintaining the quality of dried glue, which has the effect of increasing the efficiency of dry glue production and reducing man-hours and costs.
