Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention relates to a conveyor-line cage feeding device that can alternately produce nori sheets on both sides of the cage, among fully automatic seaweed manufacturing devices.

``Prior art'' In conventional fully automatic nori production equipment, a plurality of cages are supported on support frames, and the support frames are moved along the vertical and horizontal transition sections of the conveyor line, making it difficult to make nori sheets into the cages. This could only be done on the front side and not on the back side, and since the direction of horizontal movement of the screen and the direction of the bars were at right angles, it was difficult to omit the support frame.

``Problems to be solved by the invention'' The present invention is designed to make it possible to alternately make sheets of seaweed on the front and back sides in the same line when the screen circulating on the conveyor line enters and exits the nori dryer, and the screen supports the screen. The purpose is to omit.

``Means for solving the problem'' This proposal consists of a nori cage support frame installed on an endless circulation chain that rotates from the opening of the nori dryer to the back, and a nori cage is supplied to the opening. In an automatic seaweed manufacturing apparatus, the conveyor line from the unloading section to the supply section includes a nori peeling machine, a nori paper cutting machine, and a nori dehydrator. It is constituted by a cage feeding device in which the starting end and the terminal end of the lower horizontal transition section are connected by a support and lift device for the front and rear ends of a horizontal cage made of bars in the same direction as the conveyor line.

"Function" The nori paper basket taken out from the dried seaweed removal section of the seaweed dryer is transferred horizontally through the lower horizontal transition section of a conveyor line such as a roller conveyor, and during that time, the lower surface (back side) of the basket is removed by a nori peeling machine. The attached seaweed is separated, and the separated seaweed is taken down the roller conveyor. Thereafter, the front and rear ends of the cage bars are supported by the horizontal cage lifting device at the end of the lower horizontal transition section, and the cage moves upward at the starting end of the upper horizontal transition section with the lower surface (back surface) facing downward. After passing through a roller conveyor, the seaweed is placed between the crosspieces of a crosspiece conveyor, and a seaweed paper machine forms the seaweed onto the top (surface) of the screen.The seaweed is then passed through a dehydrator and supplied to the supply section of a seaweed dryer.

As can be seen from the above explanation, the collected seaweed on the back side of the screen is peeled off, and then the seaweed is attached to the surface of the same screen, and the nori is attached alternately to the front and back of the screen. Therefore, the conveyor line can be moved in the horizontal direction and upward direction using the screen alone without requiring a screen support frame.

"Embodiment" A seaweed cage support frame 4 is installed on the endless intermittent rotation chain 3 exposed at the opening 2 of the seaweed dryer 1, and can be rotated intermittently from the opening 2 to the inner part.
At the lower transition part of this chain 3, an unloading device 5' is provided in the screen unloading part 5 at the opening 2, and a lower horizontal transition part l is provided with a roller conveyor 6 following the unloading device 5'. The part 1 is in the same direction as the row direction of the screen 7. A nori peeling machine 8 is provided within the transition section l. This seaweed peeling machine 8 pulls the cage 7 in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the cage 7, and during this time, the cut-off seaweed 9 is suctioned and fixed to a suction device 11 via an intermittent rotation perforated belt 10. The cage 7 is then placed on the lower rollers 13 of the horizontal cage lifting device 12, which is stopped at the end of the lower horizontal transition l. This device 12 has upper and lower sprockets 14 and 15 as shown in FIG.
Horizontal rod 17 installed on chain 16 suspended between
are provided at equal intervals, and both the front and rear ends of the bar are directly supported by the horizontal rods 17, 17, and are lifted up intermittently to reach the top stage (the state is shown in Figure 2). After stopping, one end of the cage 7 is lifted by the lifting/lowering arm 18, and then pushed out from the solid line position in FIG. 3 to the phantom line position in the same figure by the cage pushing reciprocating plate 19, and this process is repeated. The extruded basket 7 has its bar direction aligned with the direction of the upper horizontal transition part l', moves from the roller conveyor 20 to the intermittent beam conveyor 21, enters the nori shaving machine 22, and forms nori on the top (surface) of the basket 7. 9 is attached to the dehydrator 23, 23
, a conveyor line is formed, and the operation of being supported on the supporting frame 4 that is horizontally stopped at the screen supply section 24 of the opening 2 and moving into the dryer 1 is repeated. In addition, what is indicated by 25 in the figure is the upper sprocket 14 in the horizontal cage lifting device 12.
Intermittent drive device (Fig. 4), 26 is a pushing cage receiving roller, 27 is an intermittent raising cage guide plate, 28 is a reciprocating support cart for the reciprocating plate 19 for pushing out the cage, 29 is a reciprocating lever for the cart 28, 30 31 is a cam for operating the same lever 29.
is a side guide plate of the intermittent ascending screen 7.

``Effects'' Since the present invention is configured as described above, a conveyor line is formed by connecting the upper and lower horizontal transition parts in a fully automatic seaweed production device by a horizontal cage lifting device, so that the cage is increased every time the line is moved. Since seaweed is made from paper on the front and back sides, the screen can not only be used efficiently, but also has the effect of simplifying the device since no screen support frame is required.
