Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a cheese conveying device that aligns cylindrical or conical cheese doffed in a winder or the like in a predetermined direction and supplies it to the next process.

Conventionally, the above-mentioned cheese was transported to a predetermined location by a worker using a transport vehicle, but this method was extremely inefficient, and loading a large number of cheeses onto a transport vehicle caused problems such as disturbing the winding threads of the cheese. There are various drawbacks, and for this reason automatic conveyance means using a conveyor have been attempted.

However, in this case, a common transport conveyor is installed at right angles to the delivery conveyor attached to each winder, so when the cheese is delivered to both conveyors, it falls over and its posture is disturbed, so this is automatically carried out in the next process. There are drawbacks such as the inability to process the problem and the need for manual labor to correct posture.

The present invention has been made in view of this point, and when receiving cheese sent in a constant posture between conveyors orthogonal to each other, the receiver maintains the same constant posture even after passing the cheese as before passing, and when transferring The purpose is to prevent the winding thread from becoming unwound due to sliding friction with both running conveyors.

The present invention will be explained below based on the drawings.

Figures 1 to 5 show a first example of implementation, in which a cheese delivery conveyor 1 is attached to the winder W, and the full cheese C is manually or automatically placed in a fixed position (with the large diameter portion facing forward). and place it on the conveyor 1.

The terminal end of the conveyor 1 is disposed directly or via a feed adjustment conveyor 2 to be disposed perpendicularly opposite to a common conveyor 3 for each winder.

The above feed adjustment conveyor 2 is the feed conveyor 1.
receiving cheese C supplied irregularly or at uneven intervals;
Even if they are adjacent to each other, they are supplied to the transport conveyor 3 at different timings, and are made to move at a higher speed than the delivery conveyor 1. Reference numeral 21 is a driving motor.

The delivery conveyor 1 attached to each winder W is automatically controlled and operated sequentially with a predetermined time lag.

Therefore, the cheese on the conveyor 3 will not be fed redundantly.

The present invention provides cheese C directly from the delivery conveyor 1 or via the delivery adjustment conveyor 2 to the conveyor 3.
When supplying cheese, the direction must be changed between both conveyors in order to keep the cheese always in a constant position with respect to the direction in which the conveyor is traveling, and also to prevent the cheese from riding on the conveyor.
The cheese transfer means 4 is then tilted and transferred to the conveyor side, and the cheese transfer means 4 is rod-shaped and provided with necessary guidance for the delivery conveyor and the conveyor. Angle A
In this embodiment, the rod-shaped body is of a rotating type, that is, a rotating roller type.

That is, this cheese delivery means 4 has a spindle 43 supported by holders 41 and 42 attached to both sides of the frame 50, and a roll 44 is rotatably supported on this spindle 43, and is connected to a feed-out adjustment conveyor. The cheese C is placed slightly above the line connecting the end of the second end and the cheese placement surface of the conveyor 3, that is, the cheese C is placed on the cheese delivery means 4, and then tilted and positioned so as to be delivered to the conveyor 3.

As shown in FIG. 1, the guide angle A is defined by protruding the rear end toward the conveyor 3 in the horizontal plane with respect to the traveling direction of the conveyor 3, and the required horizontal angle α with respect to the axis of the conveyor, as shown in FIG. 3. The rear end is positioned upward, and a required vertical angle β is formed between the rear end and the upper surface of the adjustment conveyor 2.

This guide angle A is determined experimentally, but when the cheese C sent out by the adjustment conveyor 2 is placed on the cheese delivery means 4, the attitude is slightly in the direction of movement of the conveyor 3 due to the guide angle A. Instead, it is determined to be tilted, detached from the adjustment conveyor 2, and then pulled out as the conveyance conveyor belt 3 advances.

In the figure, reference numeral 51 indicates a guide bar for guiding the cheese to prevent the cheese from falling.

Next, a second example of implementation shown in FIGS. 6 to 1 will be described. In this example, the cheese delivery means 41 is made of a belt-shaped plate with a smooth arcuate upper surface. In this case, the same guide as in the previous example is used. The cheese C fed out by an angled feed adjustment conveyor 2 is tilted and supported so that it can be separated from the conveyor 2 and transferred only by the traction force of the conveyor 3.

Even in the above side embodiment, the relative heights of the delivery conveyor 1 or the delivery adjustment conveyor 2 and the conveyor 3 are at the same level or slightly lower on the conveyor 3 side, but the cheese C receiver is placed at the same level as the cheese C that was sent out at the time of delivery. The cheese tray rides on the transfer means 4 and is tilted, and the rear part of the cheese C is detached from the conveyor 1 or 2 to cut off the harmful transfer force of the conveyor 1 or 2 when changing direction, and prevent the transfer of the cheese C from the conveyor 3. It is towed and transferred only by force.

If the conveyor 3 has raised sides or has guides, the received cheese C will be conveyed in an orderly manner.

Further, in the above embodiment, the cheese C is conveyed with the large diameter portion forward, but if the cheese C is conveyed with the small diameter portion forward, the angle etc. of the delivery means may be adjusted accordingly. .

In the present invention, as described above, the cheese C delivered by the delivery conveyor 1 is placed on the cheese delivery means 4 either directly or via the delivery adjustment conveyor 2, and is tilted by the cheese delivery means 4 and removed from the conveyor 1 or 2. Since the cheese is transferred only by the traction force accompanying the transfer of the transfer conveyor 3, the front and rear directions are always reliably constant without being affected by the speed difference between the front and rear conveyors, and the cheese is transferred to both conveyors. Since the belt does not come into contact with the conveyors at the same time, it is not subjected to sliding friction due to the speed difference between the two conveyors and the difference in running direction, and therefore, the winding does not become unrolled due to the sliding friction.
