Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a conveyed article transfer device for transferring conveyed articles by pressing a button between conveyors. A transfer jig 4 having a conveyor belt 3 at the bottom is capable of pendulum movement around a central shaft 5, and this transfer jig 4 is connected to an upper conveyor 6 and a lower conveyor 7.
This relates to a conveyed object transfer device characterized in that it is arranged between.

Conventionally, when conveying objects from a horizontal conveyor that is an upper stage conveyor to an inclined conveyor that is a lower stage conveyor, the horizontal conveyor and the inclined conveyor have been directly connected.

However, in this case, the center of gravity of the conveyed object shifts and causes it to fall onto the inclined conveyor, so when the head is large, the load of the conveyed object is multiplied by the head, resulting in an extremely large force.
There was a problem that the transported items were damaged or damaged.

Furthermore, if both the upper and lower conveyors are horizontal conveyors, an additional inclined conveyor must be provided between the upper and lower conveyors, and if this inclined conveyor is used, the conveyed items may be damaged as described above. In addition, there were problems in that the conveyor was easily damaged, and a drive mechanism was required to drive the inclined conveyor, resulting in additional power costs.

The present invention was invented in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide a freely rotating roller on the top of a transfer jig that can freely move in pendulum, so that products can be transferred from an upper conveyor to a lower conveyor without damaging the products. To provide a conveyed article transfer device which can be transferred to a conveyor, can eliminate power costs by making a pendulum motion of a transfer jig, and has a simple structure.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to Examples.

In the figure, reference numeral 4 denotes a transfer jig, in which an article transfer section 2 is provided at the top and a weight section 3 is provided at the bottom.

The conveyed object transfer section 2 is constructed by freely rotating a plurality of rollers 1 between opposing frame members 8.

The upper end of the roller 1 protrudes above the frame member 8, and the rearmost end 1 serves as a stopper roller 1a, which protrudes further above the other rollers 1.

Further, the width of the conveyed object transfer section 2 is shorter than the distance between the pair of belt conveyors 9 forming the upper stage conveyor 6 and the distance between the pair of belt conveyors 10 forming the lower stage conveyor 7.

The transfer jig 4 is capable of pendulum movement about a shaft 5 in the center.

Here, the length of the conveyed object transfer section 2 is 11, and the length of the pendulum is 122.
The weight of the weight section 3 is determined by the size and weight of the object to be transported.

The transfer jig 4 is disposed between the upper conveyor 6 and the lower conveyor 7 as shown in FIG.

In the illustrated embodiment, an example of a horizontal conveyor is shown as the upper stage conveyor 6, and an example of a tilting conveyor is shown as the lower stage conveyor 7.

As shown in FIG. 3a, the conveyed articles 11 sent by the upper stage conveyor 6 are sent onto the conveyed article transfer section 2. As shown in FIG.

At this time, the conveyed object 11 moves over the rollers 1 due to inertia when it is sent onto the conveyed object transfer section 2 by the upper conveyor 6, and stops when it hits the rearmost stopper-use roller 1a as shown in Figure 3. At the same time, the transfer jig 4 rotates in the direction of arrow A in FIG.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3C, when the upper end of the stopper roller 1a reaches the same height as the lower conveyor 7, the conveyed object 11 is placed on the lower conveyor 7, and the object 11 is placed on the lower conveyor 7.
transported by.

On the other hand, when the conveyed object 11 is completely transferred to the lower conveyor 7, the transfer jig 4 returns to the state shown in FIG. 3a based on the principle of a pendulum.

In the above embodiment, the upper conveyor 6 is a horizontal conveyor and the lower conveyor 7 is an inclined conveyor. A transfer jig 4 may be disposed between the ends of the transfer jig 4 to convey the object from the upper horizontal conveyor to the lower horizontal conveyor.

In the present invention, as described above, a transfer jig having a conveyed object transfer section in the upper part and a weight part in the lower part is movable in a pendulum manner around a central shaft part, and this transfer jig is attached to an upper stage. It is placed between the conveyor and the lower conveyor, so that the conveyed object can be rotated and transferred to the lower conveyor by rotation of the transfer jig while the conveyed object is placed on the conveyed object transfer section. Compared to the conventional method in which the transported object is dropped over a large step, there is no need to drop the transported object over a large step, and as a result, the transported object is not damaged or damaged, which is an advantage. Since the transfer section is equipped with freely rotating rollers, the objects sent from the upper stage conveyor to the object transfer section are smoothly moved over the rear end of the object transfer section (lower section) by the free rotation of the rollers. conveyor side)
After the conveyed object is transferred to the lower conveyor, it automatically returns to its original state due to the presence of the weight section.

As described above, in the present invention, since pendulum motion is used to rotate the transfer jig, no drive equipment is required and power costs are eliminated.

Furthermore, even if both the upper and lower conveyors are horizontal conveyors, there is no need for a separate inclined conveyor having a drive mechanism as in the prior art.
