BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a water flow type solid material cutting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a water flow type solid material cutting device 1 includes a solid material charging section 2 at a central portion.
And a plurality of cutouts 6 provided on the outer side of the annular flow path 4, the solid material introduction part 2 and the annular flow path 4 in the radial direction. And a communication flow path 8 that is inclined and connected in the flow direction.

As shown in FIG. 2, an umbrella-shaped rotating member 14 is arranged at the bottom of the solid material charging section 2 so as to be rotatable by a motor 16. By the rotating member, water can be circulated in a certain direction.However, a nozzle is provided at a side portion or a bottom portion of the annular flow channel, and water is blown out from the nozzle in a specific direction, so that water in the annular flow channel is fixed. It can also be circulated in the direction. Above the solid material input section 2, a solid material O
Conveyor 10 for transporting and feeding
A water injection port 12 for applying water to the solids O supplied from 0 is arranged. Note that, in the present invention, the solid material charging section does not need to be present in the water as shown in the figure, but may be located above the water and supply the solid material to the annular flow path therefrom. In addition, it is preferable that the solid substance input portion is located at the center of the annular flow path, so that the solid substances can be uniformly dispersed and supplied to the annular flow path.

The cutout 6 has an inner gate 20 and an outer gate 22, each of which is connected to the air cylinder 18. Below the inner gate 20 and the outer gate 22, a supply bucket 26 with a drainage net 24, a water recovery gutter 28 for receiving water passing through the drainage net 24, and a weight of the cut solid O are measured. And a weighing bucket 32 are disposed. Below the weighing buckets 32, a collecting chute 36 for collecting the solids O discharged from all the weighing buckets 32 is arranged.

At the bottom of the supply bucket 26, there is a swingable discharge gate 25, and when the water charged together with the solid matter O into the supply bucket 26 is removed by the drainage net 24, the discharge gate 25 is set. It becomes open and supplies the solid matter O to the measuring bucket 32. The discharge gate 34 of the weighing bucket 32 can also be opened and closed by swinging. The weighing bucket 32 weighs the supplied solid matter O. Based on the weighed value, the control device (not shown) determines a combination weight equal to or closest to a predetermined weight, opens the discharge gate 34 of the weighing bucket that determines the combination weight, and discharges the collected chute. I do.

The water collecting gutter 28 is connected to the pipe 6 having the pump P.
0 communicates with the water injection port 12. Conduit 60
The valve 6 to supply fresh water to the annular channel 4
4 is connected to a new water source 62. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the annular flow path 4 is provided with a comb member 50 that swings by contact with the solid matter O. The swing angle of the comb member 50 is detected by a swing angle detector 52.

Next, the operation of the water flow type solid material cutting apparatus 1 having the above-described structure will be described. The solid O is supplied to the conveyor 10 that is driven to rotate, and the solid O falls into the solid input section 2. The supply amount of the solid matter O by the conveyor 10 is controlled by a control device (not shown) by the swing angle detector 5.
2 in the annular flow path 4 calculated based on the output of
Is controlled in accordance with the amount of The tangled portion of the solid material O is unraveled by the water jetted from the water jet port 12 and the rotating member 14 in the solid material input section 2.

The solid matter O enters the annular flow path 4 from the solid matter introduction part 2 through the communication flow path 8, and at this time, the solid matter O coming from the communication flow path 8 flows in the annular flow path 4. The solid matter O collides with the solid matter O and the entanglement of the solid matter O is released. Some of the solid O in the annular flow path 4 enters the open cutout 6 together with the water. On the other hand, the solid material O in the annular flow path 4 causes the comb member 50 to swing, and the amount of the solid matter O in the annular flow path 4 is detected. Based on this, the supply amount of the conveyor 10 is controlled.

As shown in FIG. 3, the cut-out opening 6 first opens the inner gate 20 by the operation of the air cylinder 18 so that a certain amount of solid matter O is discharged together with water into the inner gate 2.
0 and between the outer gate 22. Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the operation of the air cylinder 18 closes the inner gate 20, and the solid O between the inner gate 20 and the outer gate 22 and the solid O in the annular flow path 4 are separated. Is done.

Next, as shown in FIG.
By the operation of 8, the outer gate 22 is opened, and the solid matter O between the inner gate 20 and the outer gate 22 falls into the supply bucket 26. In the supply bucket 26, FIG.
As shown in (2), the water falls into the water collecting gutter 28 by the action of the drainage net 24. At the same time, the outer gate 22 is closed by the operation of the air cylinder 18.

When the water in the supply bucket 26 is almost exhausted,
The discharge gate 25 swings and opens, and the solid matter O enters the measuring bucket 32. The weighing bucket 32 weighs the supplied solid matter O. The bucket 32 receives the supplied solid matter O
Weigh Based on the weighed value, the control device (not shown) determines the combination weight equal to or closest to the predetermined weight, opens the discharge gate 34 of the weighing bucket that determines the combination weight, and discharges to the collecting chute. I do.

As shown in FIG. 9, another embodiment of the bottom portion of the solid material charging section 2 has a bottom formed in a mountain shape and a water injection section 100 formed in the center thereof.
