Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention is applicable to rectangular articles with different heights of sides, and when the articles are fed casually in the height direction with different heights of the sides. The present invention relates to a conveyance device that can easily perform direction adjustment in the height direction during conveyance.

For example, when transporting rectangular packaging products with different heights on the sides, such as Kutsky packaging cartons, and trying to pack them into boxes, if there is still a height difference in the transportation state of the packaging cartons, it is necessary to transport them in the same state. Correct packaging work cannot be performed unless the square articles are properly aligned, so the present invention attempts to easily align the rectangular articles to a low height during transportation.

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

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a part of the direction adjustment conveyance device according to the present invention.
is randomly supplied on the two guide plates 2, 2 in the height direction of the long side and the short side, and protrudes on the surface of the guide plates 2, 2 to form the rectangular article 1.
The paper is transported while sliding on the guide plates 2, 2 by the feed pawls 4, 4 of the chain 3, which is configured to engage with and transport the paper. Then, on the way, the square article 1
Conveyor belts 5, 5 are provided which transport the paper at a speed slightly faster than the transport speed of the feed claws 4 while lifting the paper above the surfaces of the guide plates 2, 2. The conveyor belts 5, 5 are guided by the rolls 6, 6, and support the rectangular article 1 a little higher than the surface of the guide plates 2, 2, and are configured to move slightly faster than the transport speed of the feed claws 4. In this portion, the rectangular article 1 is in a state away from the feed claw 4 forward. In such a state, if the rectangular article 1 is transported with its long sides raised as shown in the center of FIG.
As shown in the left part of FIG. 1, a direction regulating plate 7 is provided at the upper part to maintain the lower position. This direction regulating plate 7 has a height such that it does not engage with the rectangular article 1 that is transported in a low state.

Since the direction adjustment conveyance device according to the present invention is constructed in this way, the guide plate 2,
The rectangular article 1 fed onto the feeding claw 4,
4, the rectangular article 1 is transported on the guide plates 2, 2 in a state perpendicular to the transport direction, but when it reaches the position where the conveyor belts 5, 5 are provided, the rectangular article 1 is supported by the conveyor belts 5, 5. It floats up from above the guide plates 2, 2, is transferred at a faster speed than the feed claws 4, 4, and leaves the feed claws 4, 4.
At this position, the direction regulating plate 7 is provided at the top, and engages with the transported square article 1 with the long side raised, and the feeding claws 4, 4 are freed. A certain rectangular article is rolled so that its shorter sides are raised, that is, lowered, and then passed under the direction regulating plate 7. Of course, if the rectangular article 1 is sent in a low state by the feeding claws 4, 4, the direction regulating plate 7 does not engage with it and allows it to pass through as is. After that, the belt conveyors 5, 5 descend to a position lower than the guide plates 2, 2, so that the rectangular articles 1 arranged in a low state are again lowered to the guide plates 2, 2.
2, and is caught up by the feed claws 4, 4, thereby being transported over the guide plates 2, 2, and transported to the position where the packing action is performed.

As explained above, in the present invention, the rectangular article has a direction regulating plate 7 for regulating its height.
At this position, the rectangular article 1 is moved away from the feed claws 4, 4, which transport it perpendicularly to the feeding direction, and is engaged with the direction regulating plate 7 and rotated to a lower position, and then the square article 1 is moved by the feed claws 4, 4 again. Since it is configured to be transferred, the pivoting of the prismatic article 1 to a lower position and its subsequent transfer is ensured.

Therefore, according to the present invention, even when rectangular articles with different side heights are casually fed to the transfer device, the direction of the height direction can be easily and reliably controlled during the transfer. .
