Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention is based on an intermittent endless rotating belt or chain 2 installed on the machine frame 1.
Feather plates 3' are provided at predetermined intervals on the belt, and between the two downward vanes 3, 3 at the starting end of the lower transition part of the belt or the chino 2, a folding and lifting plate 4 for folding the seaweed bundle is installed which goes up and down. A seaweed bundle folding guide roller 5,
Folded seaweed bundle descending prevention plates 6, 6 are provided in the middle of the flat end portions of the rain downward facing blades 3, 3, and an entry groove for the prevention plates 6, 6 is provided in the lifting plate 4. This invention relates to an automatic folding machine for seaweed bundles formed by forming 7, 7.

The blade plate 3' is provided every two pitches (predetermined intervals) of the chino 2, and the chino 2 may be replaced with a timing belt or a normal belt.

At the upper and lower transition parts of the chino 2, the vane plate 3' stands upright'-1.The lifting plate 4 is raised and lowered by vertical rods 9.9 fixed to the machine frame 1 with upright tubes 8, 8 provided on both sides thereof. A connecting rod 10 between a one-turn crank and an upright cylinder 8 which are movably fitted and provided on the machine frame 1.
Elevating and lowering is performed by lifting and lowering.

The plates 6, 6 for preventing the folded seaweed bundles from falling are provided on one of the spindles 11 of the rollers 5, 5, and the spindle 11 is rotated 180 degrees to move the plates 6, 6 to the solid line position in FIG. It can be rotated back and forth to the imaginary line position in the figure.

In the figure, 12 indicates a bundle of 10 pieces of seaweed, 13 is a supply conveyor, 14 is a seaweed bundle receiving plate, 15 is a seaweed bundle stopper, 1
Reference numeral 6 indicates a switch that is operated by the seaweed bundle, 17 is a lifting arm that holds the seaweed bundle 12 at the upper end of the lifting plate 4, 18 is a sprocket I provided on the support shaft 11, and 19 is hooked around the same sprocket 18. Reciprocating Cheno, 20 is a supporting idea,
21 is its reciprocating rod.

Therefore, when a bundle 12 of 10 sheets of seaweed is fed in the direction of the arrow by the conveyor 13, the passenger 12 passes over the lifting plate 4 and is stopped by the stopper 15, and the limit switch 16
After closing, the crank is operated one revolution, and this operation causes the lifting plate 4 to move upwardly between the two stopped downward vanes 3, 3.

As the lifting plate 4 rises, the suspended bundle of 10 pieces of seaweed 12 is lifted at its center, and the guide rollers 5 guide the upper surface of the bundle 12 and fold it to both sides. 3 (The situation is shown in Figure 2)
.

As the support shaft 11 rotates, the blocking plate 6 horizontally rotates from the solid line position in FIG. 2 to the imaginary line position passing through the entry groove 7, and in this state, the lifting plate 4 rotates horizontally as shown in FIG. The blocking plate 6 is lowered to the solid line position, and the blocking plate 6 returns to the original solid line position.

Thereafter, due to the intermittent rotation of the chain 2, the downward blades 3, 3, while holding the folded seaweed bundle 12', move to the left in Figure 1 by a pitch (a predetermined interval) and then stop, and then move to the next position. The facing blade plate 3.3 stops in line with the rollers 5, 5, and the lifting plate 4 repeats the operation of lifting the next bundle of 10 seaweed sheets 12 located at the imaginary line position in FIG.

Then, in a state where 10 folded seaweed bundles 12' are lined up between the downward facing blades 3, 3, 1
Zero folded seaweed bundles 12' are simultaneously extruded along the downward facing blade 3.

Conventionally, when lifting and folding a bundle of 10 pieces of seaweed between two downward facing plates using a lifting plate, the seaweed bundle was likely to be damaged and both ends of the folded seaweed bundle were uneven, which was difficult to correct and difficult to maintain. There was a defect in that it was difficult to safely hold both ends of the top plate when lowering it.

In this case, the bottom of the tank was set as described above, so two downward facing blades 3,
When the bundle 12 of 10 sheets of seaweed is lifted and folded by the lifting plate 4 between 3 and 3, the rollers 5, 5 guide the upper surface of the passenger 12 and move freely, so that no excessive force is applied to the passenger 12, making it safe. Moreover, the folding sheet 12 can be folded smoothly, and because of the blocking plate 6 that enters from the groove 7, the lower end of the folded seaweed bundle 12' can be safely supported when the lifting plate 4 is lowered, and the seaweed can be neatly arranged. You can fold the bundle.
