Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a boxing pretreatment device that removes mud after collecting cracks from the floor and is capable of arranging a plurality of cracks in an orderly manner.

Kaikawari is a difoliate-like daikon radish plant that has two green leaves on the upper side and a pale green thin stem about 10 to 15 cm long with a root-like lower part.

It has a light spiciness similar to grated daikon radish, and is prized as a soft and slightly chewy food, used as a topping for sashimi, as a garnish for soups, and as a base for sushi.

Conventionally, when the shellfish collected from the growing bed is packaged and shipped as a product, the bundles of shellfish are first loosened, mud and dirt are removed by washing with water, etc., and then the leaves and stems are aligned and packaged. do.

This process is all done by hand, and it is especially complicated and extremely difficult to align the two leaves, which are the heads, and when multiple pieces are bundled together, they become uneven and look bad.

The present invention is an attempt to solve the above-mentioned problems in boxing cracks, and it is possible to clean the cracks with mud and to neatly align the leaves of the head and the stem, and to make the packing process smooth. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a boxing pretreatment device for cracks that can improve the product value by organizing the bundles of cracks in an orderly fashion. It is rotatably attached, and an endless belt having comb-shaped protrusions erected over the entire length of one side of the transfer surface in the width direction is wound around the same two rotating shafts, and further facing the protrusion-erected side of the endless belt. The endless belt is characterized in that an alignment plate of a required length is attached to the position so that it can reciprocate in the width direction of the endless belt.

Embodiments will be described below based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

FIGS. 1, 2, and 3 show the apparatus for pre-packing crates according to the present invention, and in the figures, reference numeral 1 denotes a water tank with an open top, and this water tank 1 constitutes the main body.

On both sides of the water tank 1, rotary shafts 2, 2 are rotatably mounted on bearings 3 at a required parallel interval, and a pulley 4 is fixed to the same shaft.
An endless belt 6 having comb-shaped protrusions 5 all around the center of the water tank 1 in the width direction is wound around the tank.

The pulleys 4 are mounted so that the two endless belts 6 can be spaced parallel to each other as shown in FIG.

One end of the rotating shaft 2 on one side projects outside the water tank 1, and a V-belt wheel 7 is fixed to the projecting end, and the output shaft 9 of the electric motor 8 and the V-belt 10 are arranged at the bottom of the water tank 1. The rotating shaft 2 rotates through the rotary shaft 2, and the endless belts 6 on both sides can rotate in the direction of arrow A in FIG.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a reciprocating mechanism disposed approximately in the center of the tank 1 between both belts 6 and 6. and a reciprocating body 13 that approaches and separates the endless belt 6 from both sides of the belt.

The reciprocating body 3 is composed of a shaft 14 passing through the drive section 12 and an alignment plate 15 made of a long plate fixed to both ends of the same shaft.In the drive section 12, as shown in FIG. By pivoting a rod 19 to a disk 18 fixed to an output shaft 17 of the shaft 14, the shaft 14 can be reciprocated in the direction of arrow B in the figure by the operation of the electric motor 11. can.

As is clear from FIGS. 1 and 2, the position of the alignment plate 15 is at a level that can include the side surface of the upper transfer portion 6a of the endless belt 6, and the alignment plates 15 on both sides are opposed to each other by the operation of the drive unit 12. The endless belt can reciprocate in 6 directions.

At this time, the stroke of the shaft 140 is set to such an extent that the alignment plate 15 does not come into contact with the end of the endless belt 6.

Reference numeral 19 denotes an air supply pipe which is installed at the bottom of both sides of the water tank 1 and has small holes 20 formed at a required pitch.The supply pipe is connected to an external compressor 21 to form an air mixing section M.

Further, 22 is a drain provided at the bottom of the water tank 1, and this drain is also used as a discharge port.

A method of using the packaging pretreatment device having the above configuration will be described.

First, water is poured into the water tank 1 at a position above the belt surface of the upper transfer portion 6a of the endless belt 6, that is, at a level where cracks can be transferred on the surface of the upper transfer portion 6a, and lower than the tip of the protrusion 5. Supply water up to

In order to improve the degree of cleaning, a flushing state may be used in which the drain 22 is left open and a fixed amount of water is continued to flow from the water supply source to maintain the above level.

Next, the compressor 21 is operated to blow air through the small hole 20 of the air supply pipe 19 to generate air bubbles in the water tank 1.
The electric motor 8 is driven to move both endless belts 6 to the first position as described above.
Rotate in the direction of arrow A in the figure.

In order to adjust the belt rotation speed, it is preferable to provide a reduction gear or a transmission in the power transmission and speed mechanism.

In the above state, the shell 50 collected from the position 1 side as shown in FIG. 2~
Place them on the endless belt 6 by sandwiching them three at a time.

In this case, the water level is slightly higher than the upper surface of the endless belt 6, so that the large crack 50 is in a floating state, but it is engaged with the protrusion 5 and positioned 2, ie, fed to the alignment plate 15 portion.

In these two portions, air bubbles from the small holes 20 of the air supply pipe 19 create waves on the water surface, allowing mud to be effectively removed.

Furthermore, since the aligning plate 15 reciprocates toward and away from the endless belt 6, the futaba 51 portion of the floating shell 50 is pushed by the aligning plate 15, and the futaba 51 portion is moved as shown in FIG. The cracks 50 can be aligned so that they are all caught between the protrusions 5.

Further, when the belt 6 reaches the position by going around the belt 6, if the plurality of shells 50 are taken out with one's hands, the mud etc. will be completely removed and the head part 51 will be in a tidy state, and it will be possible to take it out from the aquarium 1. After that, it can be packed into boxes immediately.

As described above, the crack pre-packaging device according to the present invention can reliably wash mud from the cracks and align the two-lobed parts, which are the heads.
A plurality of cracks transported by a belt can be bundled into boxes immediately, simplifying the boxing work and improving the product value.
