JPS6119471A - Laver sheet drying apparatus having mechanism for turning laver screen - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the uniform drying of a laver sheet preventing the uneven drying of the sheet between the upper part and the lower part, by using an apparatus to deliver a laver screen-holding frame from the front conveyor chain to the rear conveyor chain each passing through a drying chamber, and an apparatus to reverse the laver sheet-holding frame. CONSTITUTION:The conveyor chains 4, 5 are placed horizontally in the drying chambers 1, 2, and the screen-holding tools 14, 15 are attached to the outer circumference of the chain. The laver screen-holding frame 21 is delivered from the chain 4 to the chain 5 by the intermediate delivery chain 20 at the intermediate delivery zone 3, and is reversed by the reversing mechanism 30. The uneven drying of the laver sheet between the upper part and the lower part can be prevented by this apparatus.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a seaweed drying apparatus for producing high quality dried seaweed.

[Conventional technology]

In general, nori drying equipment involves winding a conveyance chain with a number of nori front holders attached around a pair of spaced sprocket wheels, and having the nori cage holder hold a number of nori cage holding frames. , and the nori on the moss cage is dried by blowing exhaust heat up from below the conveyor chain.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in such a method, uneven drying occurs between the upper and lower parts of each piece of seaweed during transport along the upward path. In other words, since the hot air is blown up from below, a part of the lower part dries before the rear part turns over, and when the rear part turns over, the hot humid air from the upper part on the outbound trip, that is, the lower part on the return trip, hits the dry upper part. In order to add humidity again, the seaweed in this area turns into dead leaves and becomes cloudy, leading to a decline in quality.

Moreover, when two or more rows of seaweed sheets are attached to one holding frame for the purpose of mass production, this problem becomes even more pronounced.

The present invention does not cause uneven drying in the upper and lower parts of the seaweed.
An object of the present invention is to provide a seaweed drying device capable of producing high-quality dried seaweed.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a pair of front conveyance chain and rear conveyance chain for conveying the seaweed in the seaweed cage is provided inside the nori drying chamber, and between the two, from the front conveyance chain to the rear conveyance chain, It has a structure in which a device for delivering the front nori holding frame to the chain and a reversing mechanism for reversing the front nori holding frame are interposed.

C Embodiment] The present invention will be specifically described below based on the embodiment shown in the attached drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing the overall configuration of the seaweed drying apparatus according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the reversing mechanism, FIG. 3 is an enlarged explanatory diagram of the main parts of the reversing mechanism, and FIG. FIG. 3 is a front view of a front seaweed holding frame that can adhere seaweed in two rows, upper and lower.

In FIG. 1, 1 and 2 are a first drying chamber and a second drying chamber installed at intervals on a floor surface 50, and a re-drying chamber 1
, 2 are communicated by an intermediate transfer section 3.

4 and 5 are the first and second drying chambers 1, respectively. A front conveyance chain and a rear conveyance chain are arranged horizontally within the conveyor belt. Both chains 4.5 are connected to the first drying chambers 1 and 2, respectively.
Pulley 6゜7.8.9 and pulley 10 arranged on both sides of
．． It is wound around 11, 12, and 13. Furthermore, both chains 4 and 5 have cage holders 14 and 15 each having a certain length attached to their outer peripheral surfaces by attachments.

Further, 20 is a front conveyance chain 4 in the first drying chamber 1.
This is an intermediate delivery chain that connects the rear transport chain 5 in the second drying chamber 2 and delivers the front nori holding frame 21. This intermediate delivery chain 20 is connected to the boots IJ22.23, 24.2 disposed on both sides of the intermediate delivery part 3.
It is wrapped around 5 times.

Furthermore, 30 is disposed in the middle of the intermediate delivery chain 20, and reverses the nori front holding frame 21 transferred from the front conveyance chain 4 to the rear conveyance chain 5, and also This is a reversing mechanism for reversing the nori front holding frame 21 transferred to the chain 4.

The detailed structure of such reversing mechanism 30 is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and the mechanism is similar to the illustrated embodiment 9.
Now, the upper horizontal transfer section 3 of the intermediate delivery chain 20
Guide rails 33 and 34 are provided along the lower horizontal transfer section 32 and the front conveyor chain 4. Rear conveyance chain 5 and intermediate delivery chain 2
It is constructed by attaching rotating levers 35, 36 and 37, 38 that operate in conjunction with the operation of 0.

In addition, in the above-mentioned seaweed drying apparatus, 40 is the first drying chamber 1
This is a paper-making device chain that transfers the nori front holding frame 21 after being made into paper by the paper-making device 41 to the front conveyance chain 4 provided in the paper-making device 41.

Next, the drying operation using the seaweed drying apparatus having the above configuration will be described.

First, as shown in FIG. 4 by the paper-making device 41, the nori front holding frame 21 with seaweed A and B made from paper on the upper surface 42 and the lower surface 43 is transferred from the paper-making device chain 40 to the front conveyor chain 4. 1 drying chamber 1, and the first drying chamber 1
Hot air is applied to seaweed A and B from below to dry them. At this point, seaweed B is in a drier state than seaweed A.

After drying in the first drying chamber 1, the nori front holding frame 2 is transferred via the intermediate delivery chain 20 and the reversing mechanism 30.
1 is transferred from the front conveyor chain 4 to the rear conveyor chain 5 in the second drying chamber 2.

Such transfer is carried out in particular by means of front and rear conveyor chains 4.
．． 5 and the intermediate transfer chain 21 are interlocked and moved intermittently, and when the rotary levers 35 and 36 interrupt the movement locus of the tip of the front nori holding frame 21 of the front and rear conveyance chains 4.5, the intermediate Move the delivery chain 21,
If the pivoting levers 35, 36 do not pivot and shut off, this can be done by moving the front and rear conveying chains 4.5.

By moving the rear conveyance chain 5 within the second drying chamber 2, the seaweed A and B on the front seaweed holding frame 21 are secondarily dried. Even in such drying, hot air is applied to seaweed A and B from below, but since the holding frame is inverted,
Nori A will be dried more than Nori B. In this way, seaweed A.

B is the first. Drying through the second drying chambers 1 and 2 results in even drying, and the occurrence of unevenness can be effectively prevented.

After completion of drying in the second drying chamber 2, the front nori holding frame 21 is again transferred from the rear conveyance chain 5 to the front conveyance chain 4 in the first drying chamber 1 via the intermediate transfer chain 20 and the reversing mechanism 30. .

Next, the dried seaweed A and B are peeled off from the front of the seaweed using a seaweed peeling till device (not shown).

In the above embodiment, the nori front holding frame 21 is made of two rows of sheets of seaweed, one above the other, but the form of sheeting of seaweed to which the present invention can be applied is not limited to this. Similarly, it can naturally be applied to the case where the paper is made in one row.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention has the effect that by inverting the seaweed during the drying process, the seaweed can be dried uniformly over the front surface, and high-quality dried seaweed without uneven drying can be produced. play.
