Abstract
Description
この種の粒状物選別機は、搬送路の端部から所定の軌跡に沿って落下する粒状物を、不良品等の検出信号に基づいて前記の手段を作動させ、噴風により吹き飛ばし除去することで、該粒状物の選別を行うものである。
また、上記圧電式バルブは、圧電素子に印加する駆動電圧を1段電圧とした場合に比べて駆動装置の回路構成が複雑となり、コスト高となる問題がある。
また、本発明は、上記圧電式バルブを利用することで、不良品等をより確実に吹き飛ばすことができ、粒状物の安定した選別作用を得ることができる光学式粒状物選別機を提供することを目的とする。
また、本発明の圧電式バルブは、前記信号発生部において発生する前記信号を駆動回路への入力信号として、前記圧電素子に特定の電圧値からなる1段の駆動電圧を印加するので、駆動手段の回路構成がシンプルとなり、圧電素子に印加する駆動電圧を2段電圧とする場合に比べコストを低減できる。
また、本発明の圧電式バルブの駆動方法によれば、前記信号発生部で発生する前記信号に基づいて前記圧電素子に特定の電圧値からなる1段の駆動電圧を印加するので、駆動手段の回路構成がシンプルとなり、圧電素子に印加する駆動電圧を2段電圧とする場合に比べコストを低減できる。
図1は、バルブ本体の側面が開放された状態における圧電式バルブの概略説明図であって、図1Aは閉弁時における側面図、図1Bは正面図を示す。
圧電式バルブ10は、バルブ本体11と、弁体12と、圧電素子13と、変位拡大機構14と、駆動装置15を備える。
前記弁体12は、前記バルブ本体11の前記気体圧力室111内に配置され、前記気体排出路112を開閉する。
前記圧電素子13は、前記バルブ本体11内に配置され該バルブ本体11に一端が固定される。
前記駆動装置15は、前記圧電素子13に駆動電圧を印加して電荷を充電し、該圧電素子13を伸長させる充電用駆動回路と、前記充電した電荷を放電し、前記圧電素子13を収縮させる放電用駆動回路を備え、前記圧電素子13を伸縮変位させることにより前記弁体12を開閉駆動する。
第1変位拡大機構は、第1ヒンジ16a、第2ヒンジ17a、第1アーム部材18a及び第1板ばね19aで構成される。第1ヒンジ16aの一端はバルブ本体11に接合される。第2ヒンジ17aの一端は前記圧電素子13に取り付けられるキャップ部材131に接合される。前記の第1ヒンジ16a及び第2ヒンジ17aの各他端はいずれも、第1アーム部材18aの基部に接合される。第1アーム部材18aの外側先端部分には、第1板ばね19aの一端が接合され、内端は弁体12の一方側の側端部に接合される。
図2は、圧電式バルブの第1の変形例であって、バルブ本体の側面が開放された状態を示す。
当該圧電式バルブ20は、弁体22、圧電素子23、変位拡大機構24を一体化してなるアクチュエータ30を有し、当該アクチュエータ30を、気体圧力室211及び気体排出路212を有するバルブ本体21に対し側方から固定する構成とした点で、図1に示す圧電式バルブ10と相違する。
なお、ここでは、前記弁体22を開閉駆動する駆動装置(前記の駆動装置15に相当)については図示省略する。
前記変位伝達部26は、前記圧電素子23の一端が接合されるU字状のベース基板27と、前記圧電素子23の他端が接合されるキャップ部材28を有する。
当該圧電式バルブ20は、前記圧電素子23が、前記U字状のベース基板27の空間内であって該U字状底部と前記キャップ部材28との間に組み込まれ、前記一端が前記ベース基板27に接合され、前記他端が前記キャップ部材28に接合されている。
当該圧電式バルブ20も、バルブ本体21の側面を密閉した状態で使用されることは言うまでもない。
図3は、圧電式バルブの第2の変形例であって、バルブ本体の断面内部の様子を示す。図3に示す圧電式バルブ40は、気体圧力室411を形成するバルブ本体41の前面が開口し、該開口を閉鎖する蓋体42に気体排出路421が形成されており、当該蓋体42に、前記バルブ本体41の内部に配設されるプレート43が一体に形成されるとともに、該プレート43に図2に示すアクチュエータ30が固定されている点で、図2に示す圧電式バルブ20と相違する。
なお、ここでも、弁体を開閉駆動する駆動装置については図示省略する。
図4Aは本発明の圧電式バルブにおける駆動装置の回路構成についてのブロック図、図4Bは前記回路において発生する信号及び圧電素子の印加電圧のタイミングチャートを示す。
図4Aに示すように、本発明の圧電式バルブにおける駆動装置は、信号発生部150において、プレパルスとメインパルスからなる1つの充電用信号A(以下、「プレパルス信号」という。)を発生し、該プレパルス信号を充電用駆動回路151への入力信号とすることで、圧電素子に電圧を印加して電荷を充電し、該圧電素子を伸長させる。また、前記駆動装置は、信号発生部150において発生する放電用信号Bを放電用駆動回路152への入力信号とすることで、前記圧電素子から前記電荷を放電させ、該圧電素子を収縮させる。
(1)圧縮エア供給圧力:0.25MPa(大気圧下のゲージ圧値)
(2)圧縮エア設定流量:60L/min
(3)入力信号:プレパルス時間t1=0.14ms、休止時間t2=0.03ms、メインパルス時間t3=1.83ms(圧電素子の通電時間:2ms)
(4)エア噴出圧検出位置:気体排出路先端より2mm
また、前記メインパルス時間t3は、エア噴出時間に基づいて設定されている。
図6Aは、特許文献2に記載された、従来の圧電式バルブにおける駆動装置の回路構成についてのブロック図、図6Bは前記回路において発生及び生成する信号、並びに圧電素子の印加電圧のタイミングチャートを示す。
図6Aに示すように、従来の圧電式バルブにおける駆動装置は、信号発生部550において、矩形波からなる信号A_Hと信号A_Lの2つの充電用信号を発生し、指令値演算回路553において、前記2つの信号を合成して2段からなる合成信号A’(以下、「2段信号」という。)を生成し、該2段信号を充電用駆動回路551への入力信号とすることで、圧電素子に電圧を印加して電荷を充電し、該圧電素子を伸長させる。また、前記駆動装置は、信号発生部550において発生する放電用信号Bを放電用駆動回路552への入力信号とすることで、前記圧電素子から前記電荷を放電させ、該圧電素子を収縮させる。
(1)圧縮エア供給圧力:0.25MPa(大気圧下のゲージ圧値)
(2)圧縮エア設定流量:60L/min
(3)入力信号:1段目の時間t4=0.26ms、2段目の時間t5=1.74ms(圧電素子の通電時間:2ms)
(4)エア噴出圧検出位置:気体排出路先端より2mm
また、前記2段目の時間t5は、エア噴出時間に基づいて設定されている。
図8において、一点鎖線は「プレパルス信号」を充電用駆動回路151への入力信号とした場合を示す。また、実線は「2段信号」を充電用駆動回路551への入力信号とした場合を示す。さらに、図8には、「パルス(矩形波)信号」を充電用駆動回路への入力信号とした場合を合わせて破線で示す。なお、「パルス信号」を充電用駆動回路への入力信号とした場合、圧電素子には1段の矩形状の駆動電圧が印加される。
次に、入力信号を「2段信号」とした従来の圧電式バルブでは、前記「パルス信号」の場合と比較して、開弁後におけるエア噴出圧(噴出量)の変動が抑止される一方で、開弁時の応答性が大きく劣っていることが分かる。
一方、入力信号を「プレパルス信号」とした本発明の圧電式バルブでは、前記「パルス信号」の場合と比較して、開弁後におけるエア噴出圧(噴出量)の変動が抑止されるとともに、前記「2段信号」の場合と比較して、開弁時の応答性が優れていることが分かる。
次に、本発明の圧電式バルブを利用した噴風ノズルを備える光学式粒状物選別機について説明する。
図9は、光学式粒状物選別機の内部構造を簡略化して示した要部側断面図を示す。図10は、光学式粒状物選別機における制御ブロック図を示す。
光学式粒状物選別機610は、上部にタンク620と振動フィーダ630とからなる粒状物供給部を有する。粒状物供給部の下方には所定幅を有する傾斜状シュート640が配置される。
前記粒状物供給部から供給された粒状物は、前記傾斜状シュート640上を幅方向に広がって連続状に自然流下した後、その下端から所定の落下軌跡に沿って空中に放出される。
ここで、前記プレパルス信号において、プレパルス時間t1及び休止時間t2(メインパルスの入力のタイミング)は予め実験等により求めて、駆動装置672に設定されている。
また、本発明の圧電式バルブは、弁体がアーム部材の一端部に接合されるものでもよい。
さらに、本発明の圧電式バルブは、圧電素子の長手方向軸線が弁体の動作方向に一致するものでなくてもよい。
