Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a 5VcL single material conveying device that can shift the position of a plurality of single materials fed in the vertical direction in the horizontal direction and further transfer only one single material to the next process. Regarding.

Prior to cutting, packaging, assembly, etc., single materials such as architectural pillar materials, board materials, and framing materials for architectural panels are transported in one direction, for example, in the longitudinal direction, and then shifted laterally, one by one. There are many cases where it is necessary to transport the material in the aforementioned direction again.

The object of the present invention is to provide a single material conveying device that can be suitably adopted in such a system, and one embodiment of the single material conveying device 1 of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. device a) 3, and a narrow vertical feeding device (hereinafter referred to as vertical feeding device b) disposed approximately parallel to the vertical feeding device a3.
The vertical feed device a3 includes a pair of bearing plates 8, 8 which are disposed opposite to each other on the machine base 6 and have discontinuities 7, 7 at two places. The roller conveyor is constructed as a wide roller conveyor which pivotally supports relatively long rollers a9 and drives the rollers a9 by a transmission device (not shown) such as a chain.

On the other hand, the vertical feed device b4 has a relatively short roller b10 set approximately equal in width to the width of the single material to be conveyed, and is supported by a bearing plate ILII arranged in parallel on the machine base 6.

This roller conveyor has almost the same configuration as the vertical feeding device a3, and the bearing plates ii and 1i are provided with discontinuous portions 12 and 12 at the same position as the gap between the bearing plates 8, and the outer, ie, vertical feeding The bearing plate 11 on the side opposite to the device a3 is formed to have a height exceeding the upper surface of the roller blO, and the machine base 6, which also serves as a stopper, is located behind the vertical feed device b4, that is, where the vertical feed device b4 conveys a single object. An arrow cutout 13 is provided at the end on the upstream side of the conveyance opposite to the conveyance direction, and in the cutout 13, a single material extrusion device 15 consisting of, for example, an air cylinder moves its extrusion rod 16 onto the upper surface of the vertical feeder b4. They are placed on the frame 17 so that they match and can extend in the transport direction.

Further, above the rear portion of the vertical feed device b4, a single material presser device 22 is provided which has a rod 21 which can be raised and lowered and has a presser roller 20 at its lower end.

The lateral feed device 5 has one end wound around a top chain 3L31 around a fixed chain wheel 25, 25 on a rotating shaft a24 which is pivotally supported by the discontinuous portions 7, 7 of the outer bearing plate 8 of the vertical feed device a3. The other end faces the fixed chain wheels 25, 25 and the lifting device 2
Rotating shaft b on the lifting platform 28 formed at the end of the rod 27 of 6
The vertical feed devices a, b3, 4 are interposed between the horizontal feed rollers a, b9, 10, and are engaged with elevating chain wheels 30, 30 fixedly attached to the rollers 29.

In addition to the top chain 31, an endless chain such as a belt may also be used.

The machine base 6 has vertical grooves 32, 3 through which the top chain can move up and down.
2 is formed, the rotating shaft a24 is extended laterally, and the extension part 33 is connected to the motor (
(not shown).

As shown in FIG. 2, the upper surface 31a of the top chain 31 can protrude upward from the upper surfaces of the rollers a, b9, 10 when the elevating device is in the raised position, and is housed below it in the lowered position.

A guide piece 36 is provided on the side of the lifting platform 28, and the guide piece 36 is slid in a guide groove 37 which is provided on the side of the machine base 6 and whose bottom surface is formed in an arc shape centered on the rotation center of the fixed chain wheels 25, 25. By movably engaging the top chain 31, the top chain 31 can be rotated and raised and lowered without swinging, sagging, or creating unnecessary tension.

However, a plurality of pieces of single material L are conveyed in parallel on the vertical feed device a3 by the rotating roller a9, and when the tip reaches the front end of the device a3, the rotation of the roller a9 is stopped and the elevating device 26 raises the lifting table 28, and the top chain 31, which was in the lower position, rotates and its upper end moves higher than the upper surface of the rollers a, b9, 10, so that the single material L is placed on the chain 31. Vertical feed device a
3, it is placed without changing its posture when being transported.

Next, drive the motor (not shown) to connect the top chain 3L.
31, the single material L on the chain 31 is fed laterally until it comes into contact with the bearing plate 11 on the outside of the vertical feeding device b4 which also serves as a stopper.

Next, the top chain 31 is lowered and the vertical feed device b40
Transfer it onto the roller b10.

Next, the single material L is pushed forward by the extension of the extrusion rod 16 of the extrusion device 15, and when the front end thereof is located below the presser roller 20, the single material presser 22 is activated to move the presser roller 20 and the vertical feed device b4. The single material is pressed between it and the roller b10 to adjust the posture of the single material, and is conveyed without slipping caused by the driving of the roller b10.

Note that the width of the vertical feed device b is set to the width of one single material, so that the single materials are fed out one by one through a cycle process.

Furthermore, by raising and lowering each chain wheel around the top chain 31, it is also possible to raise and lower the chain while maintaining it horizontally.

As described above, the single material conveying device of the present invention includes vertical feed devices a and b arranged side by side and a horizontal feed device that moves up and down, and a plurality of single materials are fed in parallel by the vertical feed device without losing their posture. The material is transferred and conveyed to the horizontal feed device, and then transferred one by one to the vertical feed device b.It is not only possible to smoothly and freely transport a single material vertically and horizontally, but also to extract one sheet at a time. You can also do it.

Furthermore, by attaching a single extrusion device, a single presser device and a stopper to the vertical feed device b, the single material pressed between the single presser device and the rollers of the vertical feed device b can maintain its posture due to the organic cooperative work of the devices. It is possible to transport and transfer single materials smoothly and reliably, making it particularly suitable for use in the production process of building materials such as architectural columns and boards. By automatically repeating the cycle, it can be used as a single sheet feeding device for single material.
