Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (b) Industrial application field The present invention relates to a seaweed manufacturing device.

(b) Conventional technology Conventionally, nori production equipment has a conveyor chain that circulates in the order of a cutting section, a dewatering section, a drying section, and a stripping section, while circulating and transporting the nori seaweed. There was an automatic seaweed manufacturing device that automatically made seaweed for ¥A.

(c) Problems that the invention attempts to solveHowever,
Since the quality of collected raw seaweed deteriorates in a short period of time, it has been desired to increase the production speed, but with conventional equipment there is an upper limit to the production speed, and there is a limit to the production speed. J'lti could not increase speed.

The reason for this is that among the above steps, the papermaking process in particular relies on the flow of the papermaking water in which the nori dough is suspended before papermaking, so the time required for this process can be shortened by in-house work. Moreover, the quality of the papermaking process has a decisive influence on the quality of the seaweed product.

(d) Means for solving the problems In this invention, (1) a paper cutting section, a suction dewatering section, a press dewatering section, and a stripping section are each operated in synchronization with an endless conveyor chain that conveys the frames intermittently. It is arranged along the conveyance direction of the chain, and each part is composed of a plurality of paper-making mechanisms, suction dehydration mechanisms, press dehydration mechanisms, and stripping mechanisms,
However, in order to transfer the screen frame within the drying chamber, the drying chain installed in an endless manner in the same room is attached to the conveyor chain via the transfer section of the screen frame, and the conveyor chain is intermittently conveyed once. It is an object of the present invention to provide a seaweed production apparatus in which the drying chamber chain is intermittently carried out the same number of times as the plurality of mechanisms in each section during operation.

(e) Effect: In this invention, as described above, each of the paper-making, dewatering, and stripping mechanisms, each of which is serially arranged multiple times in the conveyance direction, is used to remove the same number of 'fy moss as the number of moss arranged. By performing each of the above steps on the tubes at the same time, and then transferring the tubes from the conveyance chain to the drying room chain, the above number of tubes can be transferred in succession. It can be done in an extremely short time, and the drying time can be secured by extending the drying room or by constructing a light transport path with two upper and lower stages. It is possible to improve the overall nori LW speed while ensuring sufficient process time.

(f) Effects According to the present invention, by configuring the seaweed manufacturing apparatus as described above, the aging speed can be increased without adversely affecting the quality of the product.

(G) Example An example of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. (△) indicates a seaweed manufacturing apparatus, and the upper and lower tiers of the apparatus (A) include:
An endless conveyor chain (1) is suspended, and the same chain (1) is suspended.
It is configured to transport the cage frame with the nori baskets stretched by the rotation of 1), and the upper stage is equipped with a chain (1) according to the transport direction.
From the right side to the left side, the paper cutting section (2), the suction dewatering section (3)
) and the press dewatering section (4) are arranged in the above order, and the screen frame is transferred from the left end of the upper stage to the drying chamber (6) via the delivery section (5).
) Upper and lower drying chamber chains (,7
)′, (a)″, pass the H frame to the upper side of
)', the screen frames that have reciprocated between the upper and lower stages in the drying chamber (6) are transferred again to the lower stage of the conveyor chain (1), and are transferred to the stripping section on the left side of the lower stage of the device (A> (8) and returns to the starting point of the papermaking section (2).
0), the seaweed is pasted in the papermaking section (2), and the following steps are carried out in each section while passing through the above-mentioned sections (3), (4), (5), (6), and (8). Then, the seaweed product is prepared.

Next, in detail about each part), the papermaking section (2) consists of a papermaking frame (11) that moves up and down in synchronization with the intermittent operation conveyor chain (1), and a papermaking water supply vessel in which the nori dough is suspended. The machine (12) lowers the papermaking frame (11) while the conveyance machine (1) is stopped. ! (10) The paper-making mechanism (13) is brought into contact with the upper surface of the paper towel (10) and the paper-making water supply fabric is produced on the upper surface of the paper towel (10).
There are two paper-making mechanisms (13) arranged in parallel in the conveying direction of the machine (1) ri, and these two paper-making mechanisms (13) operate at the same time.

The suction and dehydration section (3) brings the top surface of a vertically operated suction box (14) into contact with the bottom surface of N (10), and uses the vacuum inside the suction box (10) to suction and dehydrate water from the paper-made nori. , This suction dewatering mechanism (15) is also arranged in front and rear pairs in the same way as the papermaking section (2).

The press dewatering section (4) presses the material (10) to which the paper-made seaweed is attached from above and below using a sponge water-absorbing pad (1G) that operates vertically, and press-dehydrates the water in the paper-made seaweed.
It has the effect of smoothing the surface of the paper-made seaweed and increasing the gloss of the product. This press dewatering mechanism dewatering mechanism (17) is also arranged in two consecutively. This press dewatering mechanism (17) has four dewatering mechanisms (17), two in front and two in front, and two in total.

The receiving and passing portion (5) allows the conveyor chain (1) to bend and run in a substantially W-shape, and has a vertically protruding portion (18) that protrudes to the left.

(26) and the auxiliary guide plate (27), the screen frame (9) passed to the upper drying room chain (7)' is connected to the support frame (28) provided on the chain (7)'. The side-by-side state is maintained in an upright state, and by the rotation of the chain (7)', the drying v (6) is transported to the back left side, where it is turned back and returned to the right entrance of the drying chamber (6). Here, the If of the screen frame (9) which is passed to the non-drying chain (7)'' via the delivery section (5), transported inside the drying chamber (6) in the same manner as described above, and has reached the entrance of the drying chamber (6) again. As mentioned above, the paper-made seaweed adhering to (10) evaporates moisture and dries while going around the upper and lower stages of the drying room twice, and then transfers to the conveyor chain (1). The screen frame (9) enters the stripping part (8) on the left side of the lower stage of the apparatus (A).

The stripping section (8) is operated by the operation of the upper and lower rear stripping rods (29) <30) arranged in two rows on the left side of the circumference. (10)
The rear part of the dried seaweed adhering to the dry seaweed is peeled off, and the front part of the dry seaweed is peeled off by the operation of the front and rear peeling rods (32) and (33) arranged in two rows on the right side.
