Description

CONVEYING APPARATUS

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a feeding device for feeding a conveying object such as a chicken frying pan, a tortoise cake, a nugget, a meatball, a fish ball, etc. from one side to the other, So that the debris can be effectively collected at the bottom and the axes of the both ends of the mesh belt can be held thin and without deformation.

In general, many kinds of frozen foods have been developed in order to enjoy foods that are actually cooked even in the busy daily life of modern people. Such frozen foods have been expanded more widely due to the development of refrigeration technology and transportation technology Trend.

In particular, frozen foods such as fried chicken, cakes, nugget, meatballs, and seafood balls are prepared by adding flour to meat or coating the surface with frying powder followed by heating and cooking and rapid freezing. In this process for manufacturing frozen foods, a conveying device in the form of a mesh conveyor is used for conveying a conveying object such as fried chicken, tortoiseshell, nugget, meatball, seafood, etc. from one side to the other.

As an example of such a conveying device, Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-2000-0001000 (published on January 15, 2000) discloses a conveyor device made of a stainless steel wire which is twisted in both directions in a zigzag manner to continuously form annular- A conveyor for a food machine is disclosed in which a serpentine connecting rod having bent portions formed at regular intervals so as to overlap the connecting portions of the conveyor elements is interposed between the connecting portions and then formed with rivets at both ends.

In addition, in Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0304147 (published on Mar. 17, 2003), there is disclosed a belt conveyor apparatus comprising a frame as a driving roller, a tension roller, an idler roller and a belt, Each of the cylinders is actuated to separate the idle rollers mounted on the frame to separate the idle rollers and the frame inside the frame, Disclosed is a belt conveyor apparatus having a structure capable of cleaning the entirety.

Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2017-0101113 (published on Sep. 20, 2017) discloses a conveyor apparatus provided on a conveying line of a conveyer apparatus provided in a frozen food manufacturing facility, and has a central axis A shaft supporting means for supporting the center shaft so as to be rotatable about a shaft axis; a shaft rotating motor for rotating the center shaft; and a shaft rotatably installed on the center shaft so as to protrude in the radial direction, And a shock mechanism installed on the central shaft to impact the bottom of the conveyor belt of the conveyor.

However, in the case of the conventional conveying device, since the collecting compartment for collecting various kinds of debris falling from the mesh belt during conveyance of the conveying object is horizontally long and long in the longitudinal direction with the same width as the mesh belt only at the lower part of the mesh belt, It is difficult to collect debris falling off the width of the outer side, and it is inconvenient to collect the debris by collecting the debris to one side. In addition, there is a problem that the debris falling from the mesh belt is caught in the gap and the microorganisms propagate, and the sanitary condition is not clean.

In addition, the conventional conveying apparatus has a problem that the diameter of the shaft must be excessively large in order to prevent deformation of the shaft of the roller supporting the both ends of the mesh belt.
