Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Objective of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a washing/drying device, and is used for washing and drying vinyl cases enclosing “kanban” used as a production control tool. used.

(Prior art) As a prior art related to the present invention, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-3298
There is one described in Publication No. 7.

This consists of an input section that inputs the object to be processed into the processing container, a cleaning mechanism that cleans the object to be processed that has been input from the input section together with the processing container, and a cleaning mechanism that sequentially cleans the processing object from the input section through the cleaning mechanism. a feeding mechanism for transporting one shell, a draining mechanism for removing washing water from the processed object after cleaning, a drying mechanism for drying the drained processed object, and releasing the dried processed object from the processing container. and a transfer mechanism that transfers the processing container, which has become empty after discharging the object to be processed, from the emission mechanism to the input section and reuses the processing object, and the processing container accommodates the object to be processed. Washing and drying are automatically performed while circulating the water horizontally through each mechanism.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) Conventionally, one of the methods of production management in a factory was to use a "form displaying the production manufacturer, number of lofts, production quantity, etc., and a bar code" (hereinafter abbreviated as kanban). ) is used, and this "kanban" is attached to the actual item and transported.
Assembling is performed, and after assembly is complete, the "kanban" is removed and the quantity is counted using a barcode reader. “Kanban” operated in this way is always attached to the actual item, so
It gets dirty with oil, dust, etc. In order to prevent this staining, ``kanban'' is enclosed in a transparent vinyl case. In addition, this vinyl case is similarly soiled, and this soiling makes it impossible to read the barcode or makes it misread when the barcode reader tallies the data. Therefore, it is necessary to wipe off the dirt, and therefore the dirt is wiped off one by one using a cloth or the like. However, this manual process of cleaning a large number of kanbans is cumbersome and
There is also the problem that it requires time and increases costs.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the technical object of the present invention is to automate the wiping of dirt by transferring it from manual work to a machine.

[Structure of the invention]

(Means to solve the problem) The technical measures taken to solve the above technical problem are:
Equipped with a feed roller section consisting of multiple pairs of upper and lower feed rollers that transfer the kanbans sealed in a vinyl case, and a drying roller section that dries the kanbans while transferring them.
A cleaning tube, a water droplet removing brush, and a dryer are provided on the upper side of the drying roller section in the feed roller section, and soapy water and water are supplied to the cleaning tube, and the kanbans transferred by the feed roller are The automatic kanban washer/dryer is configured such that the kanban is washed and rinsed with water in a cleaning barrel, water droplets are removed with the water droplet removing brush, and further water is absorbed and dried by the drying roller that receives hot air from the dryer. It is.

(Function) As described above, when a vinyl case containing a kanban with oil, dust, etc. attached is placed in the feed roller section, it is washed with water in the washing tube provided in the feed roller section, and then a water droplet removing brush and a drying roller are used. Since water absorption and drying are performed automatically, the traditional manual labor is eliminated.
