Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to raising a large amount of noodle strings by a tank.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in the case of an automatic hoisting machine, noodles divided into one serving are accommodated in buckets of various shapes, covered, passed through a basket and raised. Therefore, if the shape of the bucket is not enlarged to some extent, it will not be put in well when pouring noodles. And the capacity is determined by how many buckets are in the tank at a time.
[0003]
In the case of the bucket system, the size of the hole in the bucket must be changed according to the size of the noodle strings. In addition, when the noodles are put in or when the noodles are boiled, the noodle strings are pushed into the holes, and when they are discharged, they remain in the bucket and become defective. The partition of the bucket prevents the hot water from flowing, and the noodles do not bulge and the yield is poor.
[0004]
Therefore, a net conveyor for transporting noodles has been developed (Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-44966).
[0005]
However, the net conveyor cannot pass through the inside of the tank tank only by passing along the straight line from the start end to the end of the tank closed in the opening.
[0006]
Therefore, at least two meandering steam pipes are provided in the hot water from the hot water replenishment tank in the middle of the inner bottom of the transfer net conveyor and the hot water tank, and forced heating and forced convection are applied to the raw noodles on the net conveyor. There is a problem that it is difficult to apply to the sufficient raising and the continuous production of large amounts of noodles.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention raises BOILED moves while being sandwiched lightly infeed moderately by bending a length of noodles between the net conveyors of upper and lower layers without attaching the bucket. The raised noodles are characterized by being straightened by a high-speed stretching conveyor and cut into a specified weight. Noodles take advantage of the fact that when they move in the tank, they are buoyant and adhere to the upper net and do not move laterally.
[0008]
In addition, since the present invention has few things that hinder the distribution of the hot water, the noodle strings bulge and the yield is good. The distance between the two nets sandwiching the noodle strings can be freely adjusted by changing the sprocket. It can be used regardless of the size of the noodle strings, can be boiled freely and can be boiled without a bucket.
[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A rectangular tank 1 whose upper surface is open to the outside air is supported on the floor. Even if the upper surface is closed with a lid, it is not sealed and is not isolated from the outside air, and the hot water surface w in the bath 1 is under atmospheric pressure.
[0011]
The upper and lower two-layered noodle string net conveyor 2 that moves from the start end to the end of the bath tank 1 is meandered while facing the bath water 12 in the bath tank 1 and detouring 5, 5 ′.
[0012]
Large and small diameter sprockets 6 and 6 'are pivotally supported on a common free support shaft 6 "(FIG. 3) in the detour portions 5 and 5' (FIG. 3), and the first detour portion 5 shown in FIG. , The small-diameter sprocket 6 ′ is fixed on the free support shaft 6 ″ with the small-diameter sprocket 6 ′ on the inside, and the large-diameter sprocket 6 is movably supported on the outside by bosses 6a and 6b.
[0013]
The net conveyor 2 is composed of two upper and lower layers, each formed by independent endless net conveyors 2 'and 2 ", and both edges expand and contract to independent endless chains 4 and 4 via springs 3 and 3, respectively. Connect freely (Fig. 4).
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 3, the endless chains 4 and 4 mesh with the large and small diameter sprockets 6 and 6 'to change the transition direction by approximately 180 degrees. In the second bypass portion 5 ′, the endless chain 4 that bypasses the small-diameter sprocket 6 ′ of the first bypass portion 5 meshes with the large-diameter sprocket 6 and bypasses approximately 180 degrees oppositely.
[0015]
The endless chains 4 and 4 are guided in a linear direction along a chain guide 14 provided at an angle 13 standing in the tank 1 as shown in FIG. An anti-dripping guide plate 15 for the upper net conveyor 2 ′ in the middle in the width direction is provided, and the lower surface of the lower net conveyor 2 ″ is supported by the receiving bars 16 and 16 to maintain the interval T between the upper and lower interlayer net conveyors 2 ′ and 2 ″. To do.
[0016]
A supply conveyor 17 is provided at the top of the starting end of the tub 1, a vertical cutting cutter 20 for the noodle strip 19 is provided thereon via a guide plate 18, and the noodle strip 19 is slit (longitudinal cut) with the cutter 20. The strips of parallel noodle strings 7 are folded in a zigzag shape (bent or bent) and supplied onto the supply conveyor 17.
[0017]
When the parallel bent surface line 7 ′ enters the boiling water 12 along the inclined guide plate 21 in the tank 1 from the supply conveyor 17, the upper layer net conveyor 2 ′ bypasses the first chain guide sprocket 22 and performs the above-described parallel bending. The noodle strings 7 ′ are moved in parallel to the guide plate 21 to the first detour portion 5 in the hot water 12.
[0018]
That is, the upper-layer net conveyor 2 ′ moves in the boiling water 12 to the left in FIG. 1, the lower-layer net conveyor 2 ″ moves to the left in parallel with the upper-layer net conveyor 2 ′, and the transition speed is the same for the upper and lower layers. Alternatively, the bent noodle line 7 ′ moves to the left in the upper and lower layer net conveyors 2 ′ and 2 ″.
[0019]
Thereafter, in the first detour part 5, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the upper layer endless chains 4 and 4 connected to both edges of the upper layer net conveyor 2 ′ bypass the small-diameter sprocket 6 ′ in the opposite direction to become the lower layer, The upper net conveyor 2 'is also detoured in the opposite direction (right) to become the lower layer, and the lower endless chains 4 and 4 connected to both edges of the lower net conveyor 2 "face the large-diameter sprockets 6 and 6 in the opposite direction (right) Detour to the upper layer, and the upper and lower layers are reversed.
[0020]
After that, the endless chain 4, 4, which is the upper layer in the second bypass portion 5 ′, meshes with the small-diameter sprockets 6 ′, 6 ′, bypasses about 180 degrees, and becomes the lower endless chain 4, 4 to the left. The upper endless chains 4 and 4 on the upper layer are engaged with the large-diameter sprockets 6 and 6 toward the right. The upper endless chains 4 and 4 are detoured by about 180 degrees and move leftward.
[0021]
Along with the upper and lower endless chains 4 and 4, the upper and lower endless net conveyors 2 'and 2 "also turn from the left to the first bypass part 5 to the right and bypass the second bypass part 5'. Then, it turns to the left and meanders in the boiling water 12 in the tank 1 several times to move from the starting end 8 to the terminal end 9 of the tank 1 and bent or bent noodle strings in the upper and lower endless chains 4 and 4. 7 'is raised.
[0022]
Between the upper and lower endless net conveyors 2 ′ and 2 ″, the bent or bent noodles 7 ′ floats and contacts the lower surface of the upper endless net conveyor 2 ′ and moves together with the upper and lower end conveyors 2 ′ and 2 ″. As shown in FIG. 5, the detouring portions 5 and 5 ′ float from the upper layer net conveyor 2 ′ before detouring and come into contact with the lower surface of the upper layer net conveyor 2 ′ after detouring, and the bent noodle strings 7 ′ are flipped upside down.
[0023]
Since the endless chains 4 and 4 turn the guide sprocket 23 upward at the end portion 9 of the tank 1 and further bypass the drive sprocket 24, the endless net conveyor 2 "turns diagonally to the lower right. The above-mentioned crab noodle wire 7 ′ on 2 ″ slides on the guide plate 25 ′ and moves onto the rapid crab noodle wire conveyor 10, so that the crab noodle wire 7 ′ extends straight on the conveyor 10. Then, it descends from the end of the conveyor 10, and in that state, is cut to a certain size by the rotary cutter 11, and is unloaded to a lower transport conveyor (not shown).
[0024]
By the way, the upper and lower two-layer noodle string net conveyor 2 and the endless chains 4 and 4 on both edges thereof move along the movement path shown in FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b), and the first detour part from the left shift (arrow a). 5 on the right side (arrow b) and further on the second bypass part 5 ′ and on the left side (arrow a ′). Of course, the upper and lower noodle string net conveyors 2 ', 2 "are each formed by an endless net.
[0025]
The widths of the upper and lower two-layer net conveyors 2 'and 2 "are constant, but the endless chains 4 and 4 on both sides are detoured by meshing with a small-diameter sprocket 6' (Fig. 3) inside the first detour portion 5. Is connected to the large-diameter sprocket 6 on the outside of the second bypass section 5 ′, and the chain 4 is configured to bypass the mesh on the large-diameter sprocket 6 on the outside of the first bypass section 5. The width of each of the upper and lower endless chains 4, 4 and 4, 4 varies by about 15 mm in order to bypass meshing with the small-diameter sprocket 6 inside '.
[0026]
However, since the chain 4 and the net conveyor 2 ′, 2 ″ having a constant width are connected by a coil spring (stretching extension 3), the detour meandering of the upper and lower noodle string net conveyors 2 ′, 2 ″ having a constant width is provided. There is no hindrance.
[0027]
The noodle string net conveyors 2 'and 2 "move at the same speed as the endless chains 4 and 4 on both sides, and the speed of the endless chains 4 and 4 is the same as the number of teeth and rotates at the same rotational speed. 24 and 24 'move at the same speed, and the upper and lower noodle string net conveyors 2' and 2 "have a constant relative speed.
[0028]
で は At the first and second bypass parts 5 and 5 ', the chain 4 meshing with the large-diameter sprocket 6 turns large, and the chain 4 meshing with the small-diameter sprocket 6' turns slightly and both bypass parts 5, 5 'and the parallel transition part Then, it becomes the same speed.
[0029]
However, at the first and second bypass parts 5, 5 ', the bent or bent noodle string 7' floats as shown in FIG. 5 and comes into contact with the upper net conveyor 2 '. The conveyors 2 'and 2 "can move in parallel at the same speed up and down.
