Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for peeling seaweed that is spread on a cage held in a holder.

In recent years, nori production machines have become popular in which a screen is attached to a holder and circulates through various channels such as the extraction section, dewatering section, and drying section.

By the way, in the case of this type of seaweed manufacturing machine, the seaweed is peeled from the cage by forcibly stretching it in the direction of the knitting yarn by pressing the seaweed, but with such a method, the seaweed is easily torn. Another drawback was that the screen was easily damaged.

Therefore, the present invention has been made for the purpose of providing a seaweed peeling device which eliminates the drawbacks of the conventional devices, and in which one end of the screen is removably attached to a holder via a rod, and the rod is attached to a thin sheet. The thin material is gripped by a piece of material and the thin material is moved forward, and while the screen is folded back, the seaweed spread on the bottom surface of the screen is sucked by a suction belt equipped with a suction device, and the seaweed is peeled off from the screen. In this way, the peeling operation can be carried out easily and the seaweed can be surely peeled off from the screen, and at the same time, the seaweed is not torn and the screen is not damaged.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described along with the drawings.

1 and 2 are a plan view and a side view of a holder with a screen attached, and the holder 1 has a pair of horizontal rods 20, 2□
It consists of three vertical rods 3□, 32p and 33.

Here, as shown in Figure 2, the left end of the vertical rod is the horizontal rod 2□
The right end is attached to the upper side, and the right end is attached to the lower side of the horizontal rod 2□'.

There are two screens M attached to the holder 1, one end of which is fixed to the horizontal rod 2 with a clasp 4.

Moreover, a large-diameter hollow tube 5 is woven into the other end, and a steel rod 6 is inserted into the hollow tube 5, and both ends of the rod 6 extend from the hollow tube 5 to the side of the screen M. It stands out a little.

Horizontal rod 2□ at the connection point between vertical rods 3□, 33 on both sides and horizontal rod 2□
A stopper I is fixed on the top, and this stopper 7 and the vertical rod 31
．． Both ends of the rod 6 are removably inserted between the ends 33.

In addition, the pin 14 installed approximately in the center of the vertical rods 3□ and 33
A spring 8 is attached to the spring 8.

This spring 8 is biased upward, and its spring force presses the rod 6 against the stop 7, so that the rod 6 is attached to the vertical rods 31, 33.
and the stopper I in a detachable manner.

Further, the tip protrusion 8' of the spring 8 protrudes a little to the rear of the horizontal rod 2□, and as will be described later, by forcefully pushing the protrusion 8' downward with the spring force release member 11 of the spring 8. , the rod 6 can be removed from between the vertical rod 30, 33 and the stop 7.

Reference numeral 9 designates a stop at the rear end of the spring 8.

FIGS. 3a-f are schematic side views of the peeling part during the peeling operation, and above the peeling part there is a pusher 10 consisting of a fixed piece 10 and a movable piece 10□, and a spring force release member 11. can be,
Further, a suction belt 13 that includes a suction device 12 and is movable up and down is installed below.

The pusher 10 is arranged to be able to move up and down and move forward and backward, and descends from above to grip the end of the rod 6 and then advances in a direction parallel or substantially parallel to the pipe surface to tighten the rod 6.
from between the vertical rods 30, 33 and the stopper 7, and remove the
It is meant to be folded back.

The spring force release member 11 is arranged to be able to move up and down, and descends from above to forcibly push down the protruding portion 8' of the spring 8, thereby causing the spring force of the spring 8 to force the stop T of the rod 6. This is to release the pressure contact.

Further, a roll 14 is provided in front of the suction belt 13.

A brush 14' is installed on this roll 14 in order to ensure an appropriate coefficient of friction, and the nori m peeled from the screen M is sent to the conveyor 15 in front along with the suction belt 13, and further by this conveyor 15. Storage box (not shown)
It is designed to be transported to

The rolls 14 assist in transporting the seaweed m to the conveyor 15, and instead of the rolls 14, a conveyor such as an endless belt may be provided.

For convenience of explanation, some parts of FIG. 3 are drawn using imaginary lines.

We will explain the peeling work in due course.

After the papermaking, dehydration, and drying operations have been completed, the screen holder is transported to the peeling section and stopped.

Then, the pusher 10 descends, the movable piece 10□ rotates, and the end of the rod 6 is held by the fixed piece 10, and the spring force release member 11 also descends and touches the protrusion 8' of the spring 8. When it hits, press the spring 8 downward and move the rod 6 to the vertical rod 31°3.
3 and the clasp 7 so that it can be removed.

At the same time, the suction belt 13 rises, and its upper surface comes into contact with the seaweed m spread on the lower surface of the screen M, and the suction device 12
The seaweed m is sucked by the drive of (see Figure 3 a and b)
.

Next, the pusher 10 moves forward while holding the end of the rod 6.

Then, the rod 6 escapes from between the stopper 7 and the vertical rods 31 and 33, the screen M is gradually folded back, and the seaweed m is attracted to the suction belt 13 and gradually peeled off from the screen M (Fig. 3). (See C).

Then, when the pusher 10 advances further and the screen M is completely folded back and the stripping is completed (see Fig. 3C), the pusher 10 moves back and connects the rods 6 to the vertical rods 31, 33 and the stopper 7. Return between
The movable piece 10□ rotates in the opposite direction as before, releases the rod 6, and presses 10.
The spring force release member 11 then rises and returns to its original position, and the rod 6 is held in the holder 1 again by the spring 8.

At the same time, the suction belt 13 also descends and returns to its original position, and the suction device 12 stops driving, and the suction belt 13 and roll 14 rotate to transfer the seaweed m peeled from the screen M to the conveyor 15 in front. (Figure 3 e,
f).

When the stripping operation is completed in this way, the screen holder is sent to the next process, a new screen holder is sent to the stripping section, and the above operation is repeated again.

Similarly, the driving means for the pusher 10, the splint material 11, and the suction belt 13 are not directly related to the present invention, so explanations thereof will be omitted.

As explained above, the present invention uses a suction belt to peel off the seaweed while folding back the screen, so the peeling process is very natural, and the seaweed can be removed from the screen without damaging the screen or damaging the seaweed. It can be removed reliably.
