Description

462 481 . 4 fyllas med en portion korvar, dvs cylinderns öppning 21 skall samman- falla med öppningen 6 hos det uppsamlingsfack, som är överst enligt rit- ningen. 462 481. 4 is filled with a portion of sausages, ie the opening 21 of the cylinder must coincide with the opening 6 of the collecting compartment, which is at the top according to the drawing.

Vid eller intill öppningen 21 i cylindern 3 är anordnat ett mothåll 7 av- sett att styra korvarna 5 från transportbandet 1 mot de sammanfallande öppningarna hos cylindern 3 och det översta uppsamlingsfacket 4. Nedtill vid mcthållet 7 är anordnad en lagrad, roterande axel 8 avsedd att med hjälp av sin rotation tvinga korvarna, även om de är mycket krokiga, att i hela sin längd valsas ned i uppsamlingsfacket. Axeln 8 är vid korvfyll- ningen driven av en utanför cylindern 3 anbringad motor 10, som är sväng- bart lagrad i en punkt ll. Medelst en tryckfjäder 12 fås en drivrulle 13 att gå mot axeln 8 så att denna roterar.At or next to the opening 21 in the cylinder 3 an abutment 7 is arranged intended to guide the sausages 5 from the conveyor belt 1 towards the coinciding openings of the cylinder 3 and the uppermost collecting compartment 4. At the bottom at the holding 7 a mounted, rotating shaft 8 is arranged to by means of their rotation force the sausages, even if they are very crooked, to be rolled down the entire collection bin in their entire length. The shaft 8 is driven at the sausage filling by a motor 10 mounted outside the cylinder 3, which is pivotally mounted at a point 11. By means of a compression spring 12 a drive roller 13 is made to move against the shaft 8 so that it rotates.

En roterbart anordnad medbringare 9, lämpligen i form av en axel, är an- bringad snett direkt över uppsamlingsfacket 4 intill öppningen 6 och mitt emot axeln 8, då uppsamlingsfacket är i sitt översta läge. Axeln 8 och medbringaren 9 befinner sig således på var sida om uppsamlingsfackets 4, längsgående öppning mellan uppsamlingsfacket och cylinderns 5 innervägg, så att korvarna passerar mellan dem vid kcrvfyllningen.A rotatably arranged carrier 9, suitably in the form of a shaft, is arranged obliquely directly over the collecting compartment 4 next to the opening 6 and opposite the shaft 8, when the collecting compartment is in its uppermost position. The shaft 8 and the carrier 9 are thus located on each side of the collecting compartment 4, longitudinal opening between the collecting compartment and the inner wall of the cylinder 5, so that the sausages pass between them at the basket filling.

Medbringaren 9 och axeln 8 är anordnade att följa med revolvermagasinet vid dettas vridning.The carrier 9 and the shaft 8 are arranged to accompany the revolver magazine when it is rotated.

Då anordningen användes kommer korvarna 5 att en efter en trilla ned från transportbandet l mot uppsamlingsfacket 4, som befinner sig överst i re- volvermagasinet 2. Varje korv styrs av mothållet 7 mot den nu.motordrivna axeln 8, vilken valsar ned hela korven i uppsamlingsfacket 4. Medbringaren 9 underlättar korvens transport till uppsamlingsfacket. Sedan detta fyllts med hela portionen korvar kommer revolvermagasinet att vridas, så att nästa uppsamlingsfack kommer i fyllnadsläge osv.When the device is used, the sausages 5 will one by one fall down from the conveyor belt 1 towards the collecting compartment 4, which is located at the top of the turret magazine 2. Each sausage is guided by the abutment 7 against the now motor-driven shaft 8, which rolls down the whole sausage in the collecting compartment 4. The carrier 9 facilitates the transport of the sausage to the collecting compartment. After this has been filled with the entire portion of sausages, the turret magazine will be rotated, so that the next collecting compartment will be in the filling position, and so on.

En avkännare 14 är anordnad att känna av korvarnas 5 läge på transport- bandet 1. Samtidigt som transportbandet rör sig till nästa fyllnadsläge skall det fyllda uppsamlingsfacket 4 i revolvermagasinet 2 förflytta sig,~ så att nästa uppsamlingsfack kommer i fyllnadsläge. En induktiv givare 15 är anordnad att avge en avkänningsmarkering, så att en ny fyllnadsfas kan påbörjas.A sensor 14 is arranged to sense the position of the sausages 5 on the conveyor belt 1. At the same time as the conveyor belt moves to the next filling position, the filled collecting compartment 4 in the turret magazine 2 must move, so that the next collecting compartment comes into filling position. An inductive sensor 15 is arranged to emit a sensing mark, so that a new filling phase can be started.

Axeln 8 är anordnad att vid revolvermagasinets 2 vridning i cylindern 3 förflyttas mot eller från medbringaren 9 med hjälp av en hävarm 16, vid vu 5 462 481 vars ena ände axeln 8 är anordnad. Hävarmen 16 är styrd av en fjäder 17 och en excentriskt lagrad plunsch 19, vilken vid revolvermagasinets 2 vridning intar olika vridningslägen, så att hävarmen påverkas att svänga i förhållande till uppsamlingsfacket 4. Plunschen är så anbringad att axeln 8 och medbringaren 9 befinner sig närmast varandra, då unpsamlings- facket 4 är fyllt med korvar, och längst från varandra. då uppsamlings- facket är ofyllt eller skall fyllas.The shaft 8 is arranged to be moved towards or from the carrier 9 by means of a lever 16, at one end of which the shaft 8 is arranged, when the revolver magazine 2 is rotated in the cylinder 3. The lever 16 is controlled by a spring 17 and an eccentrically mounted plunger 19, which at the rotation of the revolver magazine 2 assumes different rotational positions, so that the lever is actuated to pivot relative to the collecting compartment 4. The plunger is arranged so that the shaft 8 and the carrier 9 are closest to each other , when the collection compartment 4 is filled with sausages, and furthest apart. when the collection compartment is unfilled or is to be filled.

Hävarmen 16 är lämpligen försedd med en stängningsplåt 18, som stänger uppsamlingsfackets 4 öppning, då axeln 8 och medbringaren 9 befinner sig närmast varandra.The lever 16 is suitably provided with a closing plate 18, which closes the opening of the collecting compartment 4, when the shaft 8 and the carrier 9 are closest to each other.

Det med korvar fyllda uppsamlingsfacket kommer efter vridning i ett läge, då det med hjälp av exempelvis en kolv (ej visad) kan skjutas över till exempelvis ett med burkar laddat magasin (ej visat), varifrån burkarna fyllda med korv kan levereras vidare.The collection compartment filled with sausages comes after rotation in a position where it can be slid over with the aid of, for example, a piston (not shown) to, for example, a magazine loaded with cans (not shown), from where the cans filled with sausages can be delivered on.
