Description

明 細 書 搬送物の表面温度測定システム 擺分野  Written book Transport surface temperature measurement system
本発明は、 搬送物の表面温度測定システムの技術に関し、 より詳細には、 所定温度 に離制御されたエリアと、 前記エリア内に搬送物を搬送する搬送手段と、 前記エリ ァ内で搬送中の^!物の温度を測定する温度測定手段とを有する ¾t物の表面 測 定システムの技術に関する。 背景腿  The present invention relates to a technology of a surface temperature measurement system for a conveyed product, and more specifically, an area that is controlled to be separated to a predetermined temperature, a conveyance unit that conveys a conveyed product in the area, and a conveyance in the area The present invention relates to the technology of a surface measurement system for a surface, which has a temperature measuring means for measuring the temperature of the object. Background thigh
従来、 自動車ボディ等の搬送物 (ワーク) は、 プレス工程にて成形された後にポデ ィ溶接工程にて溶接され、 その後に塗装工程に送られて所定の塗装 · ¾ ^が繰り返し 施される。 かかる塗装工程では、 搬送物は、 前処理ゃ電着塗装などが施された後、 搬 送手段としての搬送コンベアによって、 所定温度となるように温度制御されたエリァ 内に連続的あるいは間欠的に搬入される。  Conventionally, a transported object (work) such as an automobile body is formed in a press process and then welded in a body welding process, and then sent to a coating process to repeatedly apply a predetermined coating ¾ ^. . In such a coating process, the object to be conveyed is subjected to pretreatment, electrodeposition coating, etc., and then continuously or intermittently in an area where the temperature is controlled to be a predetermined temperature by a conveying conveyor as a conveying means. It is brought in.
具体的には、 塗装工程では、 上述したエリアが塗装エリアと乾燥エリアとに区画し て構成されており、 腿物は、 各エリア間を移動されて塗装及び ¾tが繰り返し施さ れる。 通常、 一旦ワークに塗装を施して腿させた後に髓及び修正を行い、 再度塗 装(上»装)を施して させることで仕上げられる。塗装エリアでは、搬送物は、 停止若しくは移動された状態で塗装装置によって塗装が施される。 乾燥エリアは、 所 定 となるように «制御され、 搬送物は、 かかる纖エリア内部を搬送されるこ とによって,される。 Specifically, in the painting process, the above-described area is divided into a painting area and a drying area, and the thigh is moved between the areas and is repeatedly painted and ¾t. Usually, the work is once painted and then thighed, and then the wrinkles and corrections are made, and then the paint (upper layer) is applied again. In the painting area, the transported material is painted by the painting equipment while stopped or moved. The drying area is controlled so as to be fixed, and the conveyed product can be transported inside the soot area. And done.
ところで、 «έ¾、 上述した塗装工程における ¾¾物の (表面) S測定システムに は、 エリア内の雰囲気 を測定するための a¾測定手段が設けられており、 かかる 雕測定手段によって測定されるエリァ内の雰囲気 ffiに基づいて、 腿物の渡が 間接的に測定されていた。  By the way, in the above-described coating process, the (surface) S measuring system is provided with a¾ measuring means for measuring the atmosphere in the area, and within the area measured by the measuring means. Based on the atmosphere ffi, the thigh crossing was measured indirectly.
例えば、 日本特開平 5— 2 1 2 3 2 6号公報には、 搬送物の温度測定システムとし て、 塗装ェリァ内に塗装ェリァ内 を測定する センサが設けられた構成が開示 されており、 かかる温度センサによって測定されたエリア内の温度に基づいて、 塗装 エリァに設けられた塗装装置によって 条件で塗装が行われるように制御される。 また、 従来、 上述した塗装工程における搬送物の温度測定システムにおいて、 搬送 物の表面温度を測定するための温度測定手段がエリァ内に設けられ、 かかる温度測定 手段によって «物の表面温度を直接的に測定する構成が公知となっている。  For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-2 1 2 3 2 6 discloses a configuration in which a sensor for measuring the inside of a paint area is provided as a temperature measurement system for a conveyed product. Based on the temperature in the area measured by the temperature sensor, it is controlled so that painting is performed under conditions by a painting device provided in the painting area. Conventionally, in the above-described temperature measurement system for a conveyed product in the painting process, a temperature measuring unit for measuring the surface temperature of the conveyed product is provided in the area, and the surface temperature of the object is directly measured by the temperature measuring unit. The structure for measuring the distance is well known.
例えば、 日本特開平 1 0— 2 3 9 1 5 6公報には、 搬送物の 測定システムとし て、 塗装ェリァ内に ^物の表面温度を測定するための温度測定手段として非接触式 の放 計が設けられた構成が開示されており、 かかる放 計によって測定さ れた腿物の表面髓に基づいて、 腿物の髓をフィ一ドバック制御することで、 塗装鋼板の製品の色彩変動が制御される。  For example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-2 3 9 1 5 6 discloses a non-contact radio as a temperature measuring means for measuring the surface temperature of an object in a coating area as a measurement system for a conveyed object. The color variation of the product of the coated steel sheet is controlled by feedback control of the thigh's heel based on the surface heel of the thigh measured by such radio. Is done.
しカゝし、 搬送物の温度測定システムとしては、 上述した日本特開平 5— 2 1 2 3 2 6号公報に開示されるように、 ェリァ内の雰囲 を測定することで腿物の を測定する構成では、 搬送物の を直接に測^ Tることができないため、 エリア内 の 制御と腿物の実髓とを調 るために、ダミーの腿物を艇取り出して、 熱電対などの温度センサを用いて搬送物の温度を測定する必要があつた。 そのため、 全腿物の髓測定が行えず、 搬送物の実 にばらつきが生じ易く搬送物の品質保 証に劣っていた。 As a temperature measurement system for transported objects, as disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-2 1 2 3 2 6, the temperature of the thigh is measured by measuring the atmosphere in the area. In the measurement configuration, it is not possible to directly measure the transported object. Therefore, in order to adjust the control in the area and the actual size of the thigh, the dummy thigh is taken out and a thermocouple, etc. It was necessary to measure the temperature of the conveyed product using a temperature sensor. for that reason, It was impossible to measure the heel of all thighs, and the quality of the transported goods was inferior due to the fact that the transported goods were likely to vary.
一方で、 上述した日本特開平 1 0— 2 3 9 1 5 6公報に開示される搬送物の雕測 定システムでは、 非接触式の温度計を用いることで、 搬送物の表面温虔を直接的に測 定することができるため、 全搬送物の温度測定が^ J能となって、 搬送物の品質保証を 向上できる。  On the other hand, in the transported object wrinkle measurement system disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2 3 9 1 5 6 described above, the surface temperature of the transported object is directly measured by using a non-contact type thermometer. Because the temperature can be measured automatically, the temperature measurement of all transported objects becomes the J ability, and the quality assurance of the transported goods can be improved.
しかしながら、 放 ffi^計等の非嫌式の 計は、 而擻性に劣るため、 エリア内 のように所定^ Sに髓制御された環境下では、 ェリァ内に配置するのは好ましくな レ その一方で、 非雄式の髓計をエリア外に配置すると、 センサ部やレンズ 等 にエリア内のャニゃ埃等が付着して、 腿物の表面 を正確に測定することができ ないといつた問題があった。  However, non-hate-type meters such as free ff meters are inferior in metaphysics, so it is preferable to place them in the area under an environment where the area is controlled to a certain level, such as in an area. On the other hand, if a non-male type measuring instrument is placed outside the area, the surface of the thigh cannot be accurately measured due to adhesion of dust or the like in the area to the sensor or lens. There was a problem.
そこで、 本発明においては、 腿物の表面继測定システムに関し、 前記 ¾έ¾の課 題を解決するもので、 全腿物の 測定を可能としつつ、 表面 の測定精度を向 上させて、 搬送物の品質保証を高めた搬送物の表面温度測定システムを提供すること を目的とする。 発明の開示  Accordingly, the present invention relates to a thigh surface wrinkle measurement system, which solves the above-mentioned problem of ¾έ¾, and enables measurement of all thighs while improving surface measurement accuracy, and The purpose is to provide a surface temperature measurement system for transported goods with improved quality assurance.
