Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Human and Industrial Fields of Application This invention relates to a method and apparatus for producing straw ash to be used in ash molds in tea ceremonies such as tea ceremonies and tea ceremonies.

B. Conventional Technology Traditionally, straw ash has been used as a special ash mold in tea ceremonies, but this straw ash has been made by hand using roasting.

Problems to be solved by the C0 invention When using such a roaster, the large number of straws are not tied together in a special way, so they do not have enough strength, and as a result, ribs may come out or bend during the steaming process. However, there is a problem in that it is difficult to produce straw ash with the desired length.

The object of the present invention is to solve these problems and provide a method and apparatus for producing straw ash that can mass-produce straw ash of good quality.

Means for Solving Problem D1 This invention eliminates 6 straw cracking and deformation in the steaming process.
This method is characterized by a manufacturing method in which steaming is carried out under conditions that are regulated to prevent bending.

Furthermore, this inventor has provided a means for regulating a large number of straws over the entire length thereof, a container with an uneven storage part for holding and storing the straw in this controlled state, and a container with an uneven opening. This manufacturing apparatus is characterized in that it is comprised of a lid part that is

In order to restrict the straw from each other, the straw is layered through a restriction plate, and the restriction plate is pressed down from above with a weight or the like. Alternatively, this can be accomplished by surrounding a large number of straws with metal foil.

1 to N4 show an apparatus for carrying out the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes a closed chamber having a vent hole IHt, which is placed opposite to a gas stove 2 and heated by gas 3. Now, inside this sealed chamber 1, a base plate 4 is laid, and above it is a regulating plate 6.
A large number of straws 5 are stacked alternately. In the drawing, straw 5
shows the end face, and as shown in Figure 86, it actually has a certain length in the direction perpendicular to the drawing, and the regulating plate 6 also has the size of the entire length of the straw 5. . This is a weight placed on the regulation plate 6 at the top of the 7th line. In this case, each regulating plate 6 may be made of thin material such as metal foil, or may be made of a light aluminum plate. Also, the weight 7 is not heavy, and is just enough to not destroy the straw ash that has been created.
This is enough to restrict the straw 5 from each other by pressing and biasing each restriction plate 6.

When the closed chamber 1 is heated in such a state, the straw 5 is steamed and burned, and is discharged from the smoke ventilation hole IH to form straw ash.

2 to 4 show three examples of means for regulating and holding a large number of straws 5,
The figure shows an example in which the bending plate 6Kt is restricted, and FIG. 3 shows an example in which it is surrounded by a metal foil 6H. The IN4 diagram is an example in which 5 tons of straw is laminated between the vertical regulating plates 68 vertically installed on the board 4.
Holding plate 7Pt-This is a type of mounting. 8 is a weight, but this weight 8 does not have the function of a weight on the presser plate 7P.

81 Effects In the method and apparatus for producing straw ash according to this invention,
Since a large number of straws are steamed in a state in which their entire length is regulated, warping, deformation, and bending phenomena are prevented. In addition, its regulating power is such that it does not destroy the mineral straw ash, the form of the straw ash is maintained, and high-quality straw ash whose entire length remains in the state of straw is provided.

F. Example The present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

First, the straw 5 is cut one by one into a certain length, arranged, and placed in parallel on a regulating plate, and when the first layer is lined up, the second layer is lined up. The first layer, second layer, and even third layer are arranged side by side, and a regulating plate 6t is interposed between them.

The regulating plate 6 is preferably a flexible thin plate rather than a rigid body that is too hard. Metal foil may also be used. Then, place a 7-ton mineral weight on the top layer and push the whole thing downward.
The straw is energized with a certain weak force to restrict the straw from each other. A large number of straws assembled in this way are stored in a sealed room. When heated from the bottom with a heater 2, the straw 5 is steamed and smoked.

Steaming progresses as the smoke is exhausted from the vent hole IH.

When used in a bent plate 6K as shown in FIG. 2, straw 5 is placed one by one on each of the four parts.

When surrounding with metal foil 6H as shown in Figure M3, the first
As shown in Figure 0, a large number of straws 5 are made into a bundle, wrapped in metal foil 6H, and cut into predetermined lengths using a knife 13 or the like. Then, one or two cut envelopes,
Alternatively, you can stack three of them and store them in a sealed room.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a specific configuration of the manufacturing apparatus, in which a container IW forming a closed chamber is housed with assembled straw clusters inside a lid 9. The bottom of the container IIIW is bent to efficiently regulate the straw 5, and has a large heating area so that steaming can be performed well. 7 is a light weight plate with square irregularities formed on its lower surface.

Smoke is exhausted from vent hole 9H. This vent hole may be provided on the container side. Moreover, this container may be a metal confectionery box as a handy item.

Figure M7 shows an example of a box-shaped container, in which the lid 10 is attached to the container box IW by a hinge or the like and is opened and closed. I
There are hooks for locking the OF and IPU, and 10 indicates a vent hole.

An example of a manufacturing apparatus suitable for tea ceremonies is shown in FIG. 8.

This device consists of a storage container part 1s that is attached with a handle IT and can be carried freely, and a storage frame 11 that can be inserted into and removed from the storage container part 1s and that can store a large number of stacked pieces of straw. The vertical frame surface to which the handle 11T is attached to the frame 11 also functions as a lid for forming a sealed chamber when the straw 5 is stored in the container IS. IH is an air vent hole, and 12 is a mounting plate.

The storage frame 11 is as shown in FIG. 9, and the straw 5 and the regulating plates 6 are alternately stacked and stored on the inner bottom thereof.

Although the features of the present invention are as described above, the configuration is not limited to the above and illustrated examples, but includes various modifications.

For example, when regulating and aligning a large number of straws, the straws are not necessarily in a straight line as shown in the example shown, but may be bent into an arc shape from the beginning. Furthermore, it is also possible to use straw to fill the R and steam-fry it while controlling the amount of R.

Furthermore, various modifications can be made to the manufacturing apparatus; for example, the shape of the straw storage container is not necessarily limited to a rectangular shape, but may be circular. The position of the air vent hole is also not limited.

The container in this device must form a hermetic seal, so holes cannot be made in the bottom or the like. Therefore, you can also put rice husks in this container and make steamed rice husks.

G1 Effects of the Invention The method for producing straw ash for tea ceremonies provided by this invention is as detailed above, so that the straw does not curve or bend during steaming or is destroyed thereby, and the quality is improved. Furthermore, since the apparatus for producing straw ash for tea ceremonies according to the present invention is as described in detail above, it is possible to simultaneously produce a large number of straw ash of good quality. Furthermore, the large number of straw strands are of the same quality without warping or bending, making it possible to mass-produce straw ash of uniform quality.
