Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the creation of a device that fully automatically performs operations such as papering, dewatering, drying, and peeling of raw seaweed.

Conventionally, in a fully automatic nori drying device, an endless chain is hung in a circle inside the machine, and the bottom end of the cage is fixed to a clamping plate provided on the outer circumferential surface of the endless chain. The drying process is carried out by clamping and locking the dryer as it rotates around the inside of the machine.The drying efficiency of raw seaweed is poor because the frame of the screen rotates in close contact with each other (therefore, the dryer frame is lengthened to dry it). This requires a longer time, and the machine frame becomes larger, which often places constraints on the installation area.

In order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention consists of endless chains arranged vertically in parallel on both sides of a closed drying chamber, and hooks rotated, and hangings loosely attached both ends of the frame to the endless chains facing each other on both sides. A device that dries raw seaweed collected in a cage using hot air blown into the machine by transporting it three-dimensionally while hanging down,
The drying efficiency is good and fuel consumption can be saved, and the device is also compact and costs can be saved.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to embodiment figures.

A screen cleaning mechanism 17 is provided at the lower position, and the underframe 7' on the back is installed.
A seaweed stripping mechanism 18 is installed at the top position, and the endless chains 13 and 13' in the drying chamber 1 are adjusted to the distance between the front upper drive chain wheel 4a and the drive chain wheel 9' and the rear upper drive chain wheel 4a'.
20. sag downward in the interval between the free rolling wheel 10b and the free rolling wheel 10b.
20' to constitute a fully automatic seaweed drying apparatus 19 which is adapted to adjust the continuous conveyance process in the drying section and the intermittent conveyance process in the papermaking and dewatering section.

Next, the effects of the present invention will be explained with reference to embodiment figures.

In the fully automatic seaweed drying apparatus 19 according to the present invention, a large number of hanging screens hanging loosely from the endless chains 13 and 13' are connected to the frame 1.
The screen 21 is rotated while being engaged with the hooks 14' at the upper and lower positions on the back surface of the screen 4.

From the nori peeling mechanism 18 on the rear underframe 7' of the drying chamber 1, the screen cleaning mechanism 17 and nori shaving mechanism 15 on the front moss frame 7
, up to the dehydration mechanism 16, the endless chain 13, 13
The desired work is carried out by rotating the second prime mover 6' intermittently at intervals of approximately 30 seconds.In the drying chamber 1, the endless chinos 13, 13 are continuously rotated while the first prime mover 6 is rotated continuously. The endless chines 13 and 13' are provided with slacks 20 and 20' at the front and rear positions in the drying chamber 1, and the endless chines are adjusted by expanding and contracting the slacks.

On the upper surface of the underframe 7, each frame 14 is tilted horizontally, and fresh seaweed is pasted onto the upper surface of the hooked cage 21 at the nori cutting mechanism 15 position, and then at the next dewatering mechanism 16 position, the raw seaweed is This is a device for dehydrating moisture, and a screen hanging frame 14 to which a screen with each fresh seaweed attached is suspended from endless chains 13 and 13' on both sides is carried into the drying room 1. .

In the drying chamber 1, the endless chain wheels 13, 13' are guided from the front to the back while passing alternately through the idle chain wheel 3, the upper drive chain wheels 4a, 4a', and the lower drive chain wheel 4b. The hot air blown by the hot air blower 12 inside the machine is passed through both sides of the frame 14 for efficient drying.

In particular, for the screen 21, the screen hanger is attached to the hook 14' on the back of the frame 14, and the raw seaweed is hung on the front side of the screen 21 (frame rod side of the hanging frame).
Since the hot air is directly attached to the screen 21, the surface of the raw seaweed connected to the screen 21 dries quickly, and the raw seaweed can be prevented from coming off to the front.

The raw seaweed that was collected while passing through the drying chamber 1 is completely dried and transferred toward the rear frame 7', and the dried seaweed is peeled off from the cage 21 by the seaweed peeling mechanism 18 of the base frame 7'. While being intermittently conveyed in the front direction, each screen 21 of the screen hanging frame 14 is cleaned at the screen cleaning mechanism 17 position, and then moved to the next nori shaving mechanism 15.
Thus, raw seaweed is automatically deposited in the cage 21 again.

Therefore, in the present invention, the endless chains 13 and 13' are alternately hung in the vertical direction in the drying chamber 1, and the hanging frames 14 are each attached loosely and suspended.
The overall device can be made compact by shortening the depth of the screen, and there is no restriction on the installation area. In order to transfer the raw seaweed to the seaweed, hot air flows through the back of the screen 21, and the flow of hot air is controlled by the screen hanging frame 14 at the front of the raw seaweed, so that the raw seaweed does not stray toward the front. Since it is possible to perform low-temperature, strong-air drying at a lower temperature than conventional high-temperature drying, it produces the remarkable effects mentioned above, such as the ability to significantly save fuel costs.
