Since the blades of this type of star wheel are made of metal and the space for accommodating the objects to be conveyed is constant, it can be used as a fixed pitch feeding device in, for example, a shape sorting device for make-in, which is one of the agricultural products. Starwheels cannot be used.

The lengths of the bottom plate 12 and the partition plate 13 in the direction of the axis 9 are the same, and a frame (not shown) is installed at both ends of the side plate 14 to prevent the side plate 14 from coming into contact with the bottom plate 12 and the partition plate 13.
It is installed in

また、コンベア1の復動側始点付近から給送装置8の外
周に沿って、その下部までのガイド板15が設けである
Further, a guide plate 15 is provided from near the starting point on the return side of the conveyor 1 to the lower part of the feeder 8 along the outer periphery thereof.

This guide plate 15 is provided to prevent the transported object a from falling during transportation, and an elastic material such as sponge is pasted on its surface to prevent damage to the transported object a. I hope it doesn't happen.

また、区画板13の各先端部がガイド板15の表面に接
触しなから給送装置8が回転するようにしである。
Further, the feeding device 8 is configured to rotate before each tip of the partition plate 13 comes into contact with the surface of the guide plate 15.

Furthermore, in the case of a large diameter object a', both the flexible bottom plate 12 and the partition plate 13 are bent, as shown by the broken line in FIG. and the partition plate 13, so that the direction does not change during transportation.

区画板13の先端部がガイド板15の表面を摺動するよ
うにしであるから、各先端部には回転方向と逆方向の力
が作用し、その結果、大小いずれの被搬送物aでも確実
に底板12と区画板13とでより一層挾持される。
Since the tips of the partition plates 13 are designed to slide on the surface of the guide plate 15, a force in the opposite direction to the rotational direction acts on each tip, and as a result, any large or small object a can be transported reliably. The bottom plate 12 and the partition plate 13 are further sandwiched between each other.

更に、ガイド板15の表面には弾性材料が貼着しである
から、移送中に被搬送物aがガイド板15に接触しても

点の直前付近で後工程コンベア16である順送りコンベ
アに排出される。
The conveyed object a transferred by the feeding device 8 is discharged to a progressive conveyor, which is a post-process conveyor 16, just before its lowest point.

この後工程コンベア16は次のとおり構威しである。This post-process conveyor 16 is structured as follows.

つまり、2本のチェーン17.17に定ピツチでもって
多数ノパケット18を固着する。
That is, a large number of packets 18 are fixed to the two chains 17, 17 at a fixed pitch.

各パケット18は被搬送物aが常に一定の方向を向くよ

に、略半円形に形成し、その表面にはスポンジ等の弾性
材料を貼着して、被搬送物aに傷がつかないようにしで
ある。
Each packet 18 is formed into a substantially semicircular shape so that the transported object a always faces in a fixed direction, that is, in the case shown, faces in the horizontal direction, and its surface is made of an elastic material such as sponge. This is to prevent the transported object a from being damaged.

また、各パケット18の長手方向両端は各々開口してお

ていく。
Each packet 18 is formed in a semicircular shape, and side plates 14 are arranged on both sides of the packet 18, so that the transported object a does not jump out or fall from the packet 18, and is placed sideways. They are transported one after another while maintaining the same conditions.

そして、被搬送物aは各パケット18内に収容された状
態で、例えばその形状が選別機(図示せず)で選別され

It goes without saying that the pre-process conveyor 1, the feeding device 8, and the post-process conveyor 16 are operated in synchronization with each other.
For example, it is also possible to drive the pre-process conveyor 1 so that a predetermined number of two or more objects to be transported a are introduced into each storage chamber of the feeding device 8.

また、前工程コンベア1と後工程コンベア16は図示の
構造でなくてもよく、例えば前工程コンベア1としては
被搬送物aが整列状態で移送されるようなコンベアであ

計に掛かることになり、あまり良策とは言えない。
Further, side plates replacing the side plates 14, 14 are fixed to the rotating shaft 9 of the feeding device 8, and on the other hand, also in the post-process conveyor 16,
Although side plates may be fixed to both ends of the opening of each packet 18 instead of the side plates 14, 14, an additional load will be placed on the drive source, and this is not a good idea.

As explained above, this invention consists of fixing a plurality of flexible bottom plates to the rotating shaft in a radial manner in a bulging shape outward, and inserting flexible partition plates between each bottom plate and outwardly from the bottom plate. The bottom plate and the partition plate adjacent thereto form a storage chamber for objects to be transported, and prevent the objects to be transported in this storage chamber from falling. Install a guide plate,
Since the objects to be conveyed are transferred by rotation, the objects can be reliably transferred from the front-process conveyor to the rear-process conveyor at a fixed pitch without changing the alignment direction or damaging the objects, and can also be used for large and small objects. Even objects with mixed shapes can be transported by automatically changing the space in the storage chamber according to the size of the objects, which has a special effect compared to conventional metal star wheels.
