Description of the Related Art In a tea factory, fresh tea leaves picked from each tea plantation are collected and temporarily accumulated in a fresh tea leaf accumulator for storing the fresh tea leaves. As the size of the tea factory increases, the fresh tea leaves that are collected are collected over a wide range of tea plantations, but at that time, the properties of the fresh tea leaves are not constant and each has slightly different characteristics. The fresh tea leaf accumulator is a huge box-shaped container with an endless conveyor on the floor, and the fresh tea leaves are fed into the fresh tea leaf accumulator via a conveyor or other conveying device. The inlet of the transport device into the fresh tea leaf accumulator is moved at a constant speed on the fresh tea leaf accumulator and the fresh tea leaf is fed into the whole fresh tea leaf accumulator. During tea production, raw tea leaves are conveyed to an outlet of the raw tea leaf accumulation device by an endless conveyor of the raw tea leaf accumulation device, and fresh tea leaves are taken out by the scraping device. A method is used in which fresh tea leaves that have just been layered are scraped off vertically and taken out.
Conventionally, freshly collected tea leaves vary in weight in a unit of collection, but have been conveyed to the tea fresh leaf accumulator at a constant speed regardless of the amount.

る。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Even though the weight of the collected fresh tea leaves varies, when the fresh tea leaves are charged into the fresh tea leaf accumulator at a constant speed, the fresh tea leaves input to the fresh tea leaf accumulator are collected for each unit of collection. Different input area. For example, if a very large number of fresh tea leaves are collected and thrown in, the thick green tea leaf accumulator is deposited over a wide area. When considering the cross-section of the fresh tea leaf accumulating apparatus, fresh tea leaves having different properties are scattered as spots. When fresh tea leaves are taken out in such a deposited state, the tea leaves thus taken out are not average but change in the properties of the fresh tea leaves as the tea leaves are taken out. As described above, since the properties of fresh tea leaves change during tea production, there is a problem that the quality of the product is adversely affected. The present invention has been made in view of such problems of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to transport a raw tea leaf into a green tea leaf accumulator so that the raw green leaf supplied to a production line is uniform. It is intended to provide an apparatus and a transport method.

Determine the pile to be transported. The moving speed of the inlet of the transport device into the fresh tea leaf accumulator is kept constant. The time required for the green tea leaves to be deposited on the fixed area in the tea leaves accumulating device is calculated from the moving speed of the input port of the conveying device. From the weight of the unit of collection, the time until the fresh tea leaves of the weight are put into a certain area is calculated, and the transport speed of the transport device is controlled. As a result, irrespective of the weight of fresh tea leaves in the unit of collection, fresh tea leaves are accumulated on a fixed area of the fresh tea leaf accumulator, and the change in properties of fresh tea leaves at the time of removal is eliminated.

FIG. 1 is a schematic side view showing a state of fresh tea leaves accumulated in a fresh tea leaf accumulating apparatus 5 according to a conventional method, and FIG. 2 is a fresh tea leaf 6 accumulated in the fresh tea leaf accumulating apparatus 5 according to the method of the present invention.
FIG. 4 is a schematic side view showing the state of FIG. FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the flow of a transport device for transporting fresh tea leaves 6 to two fresh tea leaf accumulators 5, and FIG. 4 is a system diagram of the device according to the present invention. In the fresh tea leaf collection site, the transport device to the fresh tea leaf accumulating device 5 can move with the ascending conveyor 9 equipped with a hopper, the movable horizontal belt conveyor 3 to be fed into the fresh tea leaf accumulating device 5, and the ascending conveyor 9. It comprises a relay conveyor 10 connecting the horizontal belt conveyors 3. Movable horizontal belt conveyor
The beer 3 moves at a constant speed on the fresh tea leaf accumulator 5 so that the fresh tea leaves 6 are put into the entire area of the fresh tea leaf accumulator 5 as shown in FIG. The time for charging the green tea leaf accumulator 5 into a certain area is calculated from the moving speed of the movable horizontal belt conveyor 3. The conveying device is provided with a leveling device 2 at one or a plurality of positions in the conveying path of the fresh tea leaves 6 to make the accumulation of the fresh tea leaves 6 conveyed. Since the width of the belt conveyor is fixed, the height of the green tea leaves 6 during transport is uniform. For this purpose, a baffle or a scraping device 2 can be considered, but any device having an effect of adjusting the height may be used. There is also a need for a device capable of freely changing the height of the device. In addition, the transfer device is provided with a transfer speed control device 4 that can freely change and control the transfer speed. Now, the belt speed (= transport speed) of the transport device when the raw tea leaves of W (kg) at the height d (cm) of the scraping are thrown into an area a (m 2 ) of the green tea leaf accumulator is v ( m / sec). Similarly, when the green tea leaves are W / 2 (kg) and the attempt is made to put them in the area of a (m 2 ), the belt speed may be set to v / 2 (m / sec). When the green tea leaves are 2 W (kg), the belt speed may be set to 2 v (m / sec). At this time, when the belt speed exceeds the upper limit of the control value, the green tea leaves are formed into two layers. What is necessary is just to control a belt speed. Since the tea leaves by weight and belt speed are proportional when put into a certain area in this way, the tea leaves integrated device by controlling the belt speed 5
It is possible to put it in a certain area. The belt speed of the transport device may be manually controlled depending on the measured weight of the fresh tea leaves, or may be automatically controlled by calculation. Considering the cross section of the state of the green tea leaves 6 thus placed in the green tea leaf accumulator 5 in cross section, the green tea leaves 6 having different properties have different layer thicknesses depending on their weights, as shown in FIG. And the whole is always layered, so that it is always an average green tea leaf 6 when it is scraped out.

にもつながる効果がある。According to the present invention, by accumulating the fresh tea leaves in a uniform layer on the fresh tea leaf accumulating device, the properties of the fresh tea leaves become uniform at the time of taking out the tea at the time of tea production, and a stable line operation becomes possible, and the quality of the product is improved. In addition, since it is not necessary to change the setting of the apparatus or to monitor it, there is an effect that the capacity of the line is improved as a result.
