Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention transports dyeing agents such as powdered dyes, dyeing auxiliary agents, and reducing auxiliary agents in fixed amounts in buckets, and transports multiple types of dyeing agents. This product relates to a rotor used when pouring into a preparation tank for mixing.

(Prior technology) There are two types of dyeing agents: liquid and powder. If the dye is liquid, it can be supplied in a predetermined amount through a pipe, but if it is powder, it can be supplied in a predetermined amount in a hepaquerate in the preparation tank. Either a predetermined amount of chemicals can be directly added artificially, or an inversion tank can be provided corresponding to the preparation tank, and a predetermined amount of chemicals can be put into the inversion tank in advance, and when necessary, it can be automatically inverted and turned over. There are known means for supplying it within the body.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Even with the above-mentioned reversing tank system, the means for adding chemicals to the tank is done manually, and it takes time and effort to add chemicals to each dyeing process. Due to this complexity, processing a large number of dyeing machines requires time to prepare and requires an increase in the number of workers. In addition, in the case of the inversion tank system, even if the preparation tank is turned over, the powdered medicine remains at the bottom, reducing the amount of medicine to be put in. This has the disadvantage that a predetermined amount of medicine cannot be put into the preparation tank.

The present invention was developed in order to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a rotor for dyeing chemicals that can automate the feeding operation of powdered chemicals and reliably feed a predetermined measured amount of chemicals. .

(Means for Solving the Problems) The solution according to the present invention is to transport a bucket containing a measured medicine to a preparation tank, invert the transported bucket in the preparation tank, and then throw the medicine into it. A pair of fingers for gripping the bucket are provided on a loading arm protruding from the carrier, and the carrier moves back and forth between the station where the bucket is installed and the preparation tank. and is configured to be reversible.

(Example) The invention is embodied by the following examples.

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment, in which a preparation tank E is provided attached to each dyeing machine (not shown), and although only two preparation tanks E are shown in the figure, a plurality of preparation tanks E are provided. are installed in a line, and at one or both extended ends of the line, there is a tip of a supply chute 1 by a belt conveyor that conveys a bucket F, which is a container for measuring powdered medicine, and a discharge chute 1 by a belt conveyor. The distal end portions of the chute 2 are provided facing each other one after the other. A carrier 4 constituting a rotor is provided to reciprocate from above the station 3 where the bucket F held at the tip of the supply chute 1 is installed along above the rows of each preparation tank E. A loading arm 5 is provided in a protruding manner, and a pair of fingers 6.7 for gripping the bucket F are provided on the loading arm 5.

The carrier 4 is moved by a traveling device A, and the carrier 4 is a traveling device! As shown in FIG. 1, a running rail 8 is constructed along the running path of the carrier 4,
Wheels 9 are provided in contact with the upper and lower surfaces of the running rail 8, and a belt 10 stretched endlessly along the entire length of the running rail 8 is fixed to each carrier 4, and the belt 10 is connected to the running motor 11. It is rotated by a drive pulley.

As shown in FIG. 1, the loading arm 5 is provided so as to be movable up and down by engaging with a pair of guide rods 12 and 12 hanging down from the carrier 4, and is moved up and down by the lifting device B. 1, a pinion 15 rotated by a lifting motor 14 provided on a carrier 4 is meshed with a rack 13 that stands up from a loading arm 5.

As shown in FIG.
6 is provided vertically, and the other finger 7 is formed of a plate-shaped body facing the claw piece 16 and in contact with the outer surface of the bucket F.
Both fingers 6.7 can be opened, closed and reversed by means of a clamping device C and a reversing device. The clamping device C and the reversing device are combined, and as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a cylindrical outer shaft 17 is horizontally supported at the lower end of the loading arm 5, and A clamping sprocket 18 is fitted to the outer shaft 17, and a clamp motor 19 supported on the loading arm 5 rotates the outer shaft 17.

Further, the outer shaft 17 has a cylindrical shape and has an inner flange 20 in the middle part, and the plate-shaped finger 7 is fixed to the tip of the inner shaft 21 fitted to the outer shaft 17, and the finger 7 is fixed to the rear outer periphery of the inner shaft 21. The nut member 23 screwed into the male threaded portion 22 protrudes into the outer shaft 17 via the sliding key 24, and the rear end of the nut member 23 is provided with an outer threaded portion 22. A flange-shaped stopper 25 that comes into contact with the rear end surface of the shaft 17 is provided in a protruding manner. Furthermore, a compression spring 26 is interposed between the inner flange 20 and the inner shaft 21 within the outer shaft 17 to urge the fingers 7 forward. Further, the reversing device has a sheath shaft 27 rotatably fitted around the outer periphery of the tip of the outer shaft 17, and a reversing motor 29 provided on the loading arm 5 connected to a reversing sprocket 28 fitted on the outer periphery of the sheath shaft 27. are connected via a chain, the finger 6 with the claw piece 16 is fixed to the sheath shaft 27, and a part of another finger 7 is slidably engaged with the finger 6.

To explain the clamping action and reversing action of both fingers 6.7, the state shown in Fig. 2 occupies the time when bucket F is gripped by both fingers 6.7, but before gripping, finger 7 retreats to the chain line position. Further, the stopper 25 of the nut member 23 is in contact with the rear end surface of the outer shaft 17. When the clamp motor 19 is driven to rotate the outer shaft 17 from this state, the nut member 23 rotates together with the outer shaft 17, so the inner shaft 21 moves forward without rotating, and both fingers 6.7 tighten the peripheral edge of the bucket F. However, at this time, the outer shaft 17 continues to rotate, and as a result of the rotation after this gripping, the inner shaft 21 is not moved forward, but is urged forward by the spring 26, so on the contrary, the nut The member 23 co-rotates with the outer shaft 17 and slides in the direction of ejection from the outer shaft 17, and as shown in FIG. stop.

Next, when the reversing motor 29 is driven to rotate the sheath shaft 27, the claw-equipped finger 6 is reversed, and at the same time, since another finger 7 is engaged with the finger 6, that finger 7 is also reversed. At this time, the inner shaft 21 that holds the fingers 7 rotates, so even if the nut member 23 slides in the direction of fitting within the outer shaft 17 without rotating due to this rotation, the nut member 23 does not rotate. The stopper 25 of No. 23 does not touch the rear end surface of the outer shaft 17. Therefore, it is sufficient that the distance α is greater than the stroke at which the stopper 25 contacts when reversed.

As clearly shown at the right end of FIG. 1, a nozzle 30 that sprays upward is provided in the preparation tank E, and the nozzle 30 sprays a predetermined amount of the chemical solution or water necessary for dyeing.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, the supply chute 1 may be of a turntable type, and the buckets F may be sequentially fed to the stationary member 3 to be clamped.

To supply in the first embodiment, the bucket F containing the metered chemical solution is sent intermittently by the supply chute 1, the carrier 4 is moved by the travel motor 11, and the finger 6.
7 on the station 3 of the supply chute 1, and there, the lifting motor 14 lowers the loading arm 5, and after the claw piece 16 of the finger 6 plunges into the bucket E, the other finger 7 is moved forward by the clamp motor 19. Then, grasp the bucket F with both fingers 6.7, and while keeping this state, raise the loading arm 5, and then lift the carrier 4.
is transferred toward preparation tank E. After facing the preparation tank E, the loading arm 5 is lowered to grasp the bucket F.
is inserted into the preparation tank E, the first
As shown on the right side of the figure, the bucket F is inverted and the contents of the medicine are put into the preparation tank E. At this time, the liquid is sprayed from the nozzle 30, and the liquid falls down so as to wash away the chemical adhering to the inner surface of the bucket F.

Thereafter, the bucket F is returned to its normal position, raised and returned to its original position, the empty bucket F is placed on the discharge chute 2, and the clamp by fingers 6.7 is released, and the next drug is loaded again. The operation of transporting and loading the bucket F containing the bucket F is repeated as described above.

Next, FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment, in which a carrier 4
