[0003]

The above-mentioned invention and invention utilize the through holes of the water-permeable inner tank provided in the outer tank to wash the raw algae laver or to mix it with the raw algae. It has a feature of separating impurities. However, there are the following problems.

The through holes of the water-permeable inner tank are constructed to have a constant diameter. Therefore, for example, it takes a long time to wash, or it is not possible to efficiently separate contaminants or algae of various sizes mixed in the seaweed algae, other various forms, sizes, etc. There are challenges. The stirring blade is configured to be installed substantially flat inside the inner tank (bottom surface of the outer tank). Therefore, the swirling flow (vortex flow) generated by the stirring blade has a weak impact on the water-permeable inner tank, requires a long time for cleaning, and cannot remove impurities and the like smoothly. There is. With the structure of the stirring blade, the stirring blade is installed in a substantially planar shape in the inner tank.
Therefore, there is a problem that the impurities and the like merely rotate inside the water-permeable inner tank, are not discharged to the outside of the water-permeable inner tank, and the impurities and the like cannot be removed from the water-permeable inner tank. In each of the above configurations, the cleaning effect is poor and it takes time to clean,
Or, in a situation where the mixing of seawater (or water) and nori seaweed in the seaweed tank is not established, the seaweed seaweed is fed directly to the washing machine, so it takes time to mix, Due to the reasons such as the above, it is considered that there are problems in manufacturing such as being unable to cope with the speed of the post-process, lacking the capability, and not being linked with the post-process.

[0005]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention intends to efficiently stop a swirling flow against a water-permeable inner tank to achieve a quick and appropriate cleaning effect, or a through hole of a water-permeable inner tank. The following configuration is adopted for the purpose of appropriately changing the diameter and reliably and efficiently removing contaminants such as large and small.

That is, the washing machine for seaweed algae of the present invention forms an inner tank by installing several water passage plates in an outer tank having a slanted bottom, and in this inner tank and on the slanted bottom. The stirring blades are installed obliquely, a drainage device (moving up and down) is installed in the gap between the inner and outer tanks, and the above-mentioned several water passage plates are individually installed, and the swirling flow of the stirring blades acts on these water passage plates. This is a configuration characterized by being made.

Further, the present invention adopts the following constitution for the purpose of producing a thick raw algae with the seaweed raw algae and seawater previously supplied from the raw algae tank and supplying the dark raw algae to the washing machine. To do.

[0008] That is, the nori seaweed cleaning apparatus of the present invention comprises a seaweed storage tank equipped with a bottom plate that can be opened and closed, and a cleaning machine that supports the seaweed storage tank. In the cleaning device, the cleaning machine is provided with several water plates in an outer tank to form an inner tank, and a stirring blade is obliquely installed in the inner tank and on the bottom surface of the outer tank. The drainage device (moving up and down) is provided in the gap of (1), the above-mentioned several water passage plates are individually installed, and the swirling flow of the stirring blades acts on these water passage plates.

[0009]

[Function] Nori seaweed algae and seawater are supplied from the seaweed seaweed tank to the seaweed storage tank via the supply pipe, and are sequentially stored in the inner tank of the seaweed storage tank at the same time as the excess seawater and seawater. Contaminants pass through the through hole of the inner tank and reach between the inner tank and the outer tank with a bottom (described later), and then are discharged outside the tank by the drain hose provided in the outer tank with a bottom. To be done. By this operation, a thick raw alga is produced in the raw alga storage tank. In addition, a raw algae storage tank for producing the above-mentioned thick raw algae is provided if necessary.

When a predetermined amount of thick raw alga (for example, a raw alga directly supplied from the raw alga tank, the same applies below) is generated in the raw alga storage tank, the raw alga is produced. When the shutter (gate) of the algae storage tank is opened, thick raw algae reaches the water-permeable inner tank of the washing machine. At this time, the drainage gutter provided between the bottomed outer tank and the water-permeable inner tank so as to be able to move up and down is at the lowest stage (low position), and the seawater contained in the thick raw algae is stored in the water-permeable inner tank. Drain through the pores to produce the highest concentration of raw algae. Sewage and contaminants that have passed through the through holes of the inner tank and have reached the gap between the inner tank and the bottomed outer tank are discharged outside the tank by a hose (not shown) provided in the bottomed outer tank.
There may be a case where the high concentration of raw algae is kneaded and washed at the bottom of the drainage gutter, for example. After that, as the dense raw algae and seawater (water) are sequentially supplied, the drainage gutter is raised at the same time, and the high concentration of the raw algae and seawater is stored in the inner tank, and the drainage gutter reaches the upper limit. At this stage, the high-concentration raw algae and seawater are pooled in a predetermined amount, so that the supply thereof is stopped. It is ideal to rotate the stirring blade during the feeding. Then, the stirring blade is driven to apply the swirling flow to the pooled high-concentration raw algae and seawater. In particular,
The swirling flow action of the stirring blades is used to stir the high-concentration raw algae, and the swirling flow of the obliquely arranged stirring blades is stopped by each of the water passage plates installed in a strong and weak state. As a result, for example, contaminants such as sand and shell pieces that have a smaller specific gravity and a larger specific gravity than the small through holes of the strongly-impregnated water-permeable plate are efficiently discharged, while the large-permeability of the weakly-impermeable water-permeable plate is large. Contaminants or algae, which are relatively larger than the pores, are efficiently removed. These can be eliminated and efficient cleaning can be achieved. This elimination and washing are repeated for a predetermined time, and contaminants and dirty water are sequentially discharged to the outside of the machine through the drain gutter.When the cleaning is almost completed, the drain gutter is gradually lowered, and seawater is discharged to the outside of the machine through the drain gutter. At the same time, the washed raw algae is transferred to the second raw algae tank in the subsequent step via the transfer hole at the bottom of the bottomed outer tank and the transfer hose provided in the transfer hole by using the drive of the transfer pump. After that, the cleaning work and the carrying work are completed. After that, in principle, the above work and procedure are repeated.

The cleaning and pooling methods detailed above are merely examples, and are not limited to the above-mentioned operations and procedures.
For example, the washing method, the washing time, etc. can be freely changed depending on the installation position of the drain gutter, etc., or the diameter of the through hole of the water passage plate can be changed to correspond to the mode, situation, etc. of various nori seaweeds. An example is given.
