板３に設けたベルト８を通す孔である。 The above pulley 6 will be explained in detail with reference to FIG. 2. The pulley 6 has a cylindrical shape with a bottom connected to a shaft 17, and has four band-shaped grooves 18 at equal intervals on the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion, and a through hole 19 at the bottom of the groove. 20 A T-shaped belt lifting piece having a head 21 that fits in the groove 18 and a shaft 22 that fits in the through hole 19. A roller 23 is attached to the shaft 22, and the shaft of the roller is A spring 24 is interposed between the pulley and the cylindrical portion of the pulley. A cam 25 is fixed regardless of the rotation of the pulley 6, and the roller 23 is in contact with this cam. 26 is a hole provided in the guide plate 3 through which the belt 8 passes.
次にこの動作を説明する。なお、この例では棒
状部材として直径４mm程度の断面円形の棒材Ａを
用いる。 Next, this operation will be explained. In this example, a bar A having a circular cross section and a diameter of approximately 4 mm is used as the bar member.
まず、前工程からベルトコンベア５上に数段に
流れ込む棒材Ａは、せき板７と押えベルト８によ
り阻まれる。次に、ベルト５の進む力と、プーリ
６に設けたベルト突上げ片２０がカム２５により
押し上げられ、ベルト５を局部的に突き上げるこ

より、棒材は密に詰まつて押えベルト８を押し上
げる。そこで、押えベルト８がスイツチ１２の押
釦を押し、これによつて受け板１０が一定距離降
下し、棒材Ａが下方へ流れる。 First, the bar material A flowing into several stages onto the belt conveyor 5 from the previous process is blocked by the weir plate 7 and the presser belt 8. Next, due to the advancing force of the belt 5 and the force of moving the bar A upward and to the left by pushing up the belt pushing piece 20 provided on the pulley 6 by the cam 25 and pushing up the belt 5 locally. , the bars are tightly packed and push up the presser belt 8. Then, the presser belt 8 presses the push button of the switch 12, whereby the receiving plate 10 is lowered a certain distance and the bar material A flows downward.
それと同時に揺動腕１３に設けた棒１４が棒材
Ａ，Ａ間で揺動する。この棒１４の揺動によつて
棒材は最密充填に整列されるのである。すなわち
棒材が単に空隙部２内へ次々と流れ込む場合は、
第４図のA′のように、棒材の詰まるべき部分が
空隙として残ることがある。ところが、棒１４を
揺動させると、例えば、棒材A1に注目すると、
棒１４に衝突して棒材A1は上か下方向のどちら
かに移動することになる。そして、棒１４の動く
軌道上の棒材は上下に移動し、A′のような空隙
がその上方から移動する棒材によつて強制的に埋
められることになり、揺動する棒１４の軌跡の下
側では軌跡に沿つて規則正しく整列する。 At the same time, the rod 14 provided on the swinging arm 13 swings between the bars A, A. By swinging the rod 14, the rods are arranged in close-packed form. In other words, when the bars simply flow into the cavity 2 one after another,
As shown in A' in Figure 4, the part of the bar that should be filled may remain as a void. However, when the rod 14 is swung, for example, when focusing on the rod A1 ,
By colliding with the rod 14, the rod A1 will move either upward or downward. Then, the bar on the moving trajectory of the bar 14 moves up and down, and a gap like A' is forcibly filled by the bar moving from above, and the trajectory of the swinging bar 14 On the lower side, they are arranged regularly along the trajectory.

される。 As described above, the bars supplied from above from the belt conveyor 5 between the guide plates 3 and 4 are
The presser belt 8 is moved by the action of the weir plate 7 and the pulley 6.
is pushed up to activate the switch 12, which activates the cylinder 11 and lowers the receiving plate 10, causing the flow to flow between the guide plates 3 and 4, causing the swing rod 1
4, they are arranged regularly. In this way, each time the presser belt 8 is pushed up by the bars supplied from the belt 5, the receiving plate 10 is lowered, and the bars are regularly stacked one after another on the receiving plate 10. Then, below the guide plates 3 and 4, a predetermined number of bars are packed into boxes by a boxing device.
なお、受け板１０はその上面に突起２７を有す
る。この突起間のピツチＰは、図のように、棒材
Ａを最密充填とするには、棒材Ａの径をａとする
と、Ｐ＝√３／２ａであり、突起の高さｈはｈ≦ａ／２
である。 Note that the receiving plate 10 has a projection 27 on its upper surface. As shown in the figure, the pitch P between the protrusions is P=√3/2a, where the diameter of the bar A is a, and the height h of the protrusions is h≦a/2.
また、カム２５は略上半分の山を高くして、突
き上げ片２０の頭部１８をプーリ６の筒部外に突
出させるようにしてある。 Further, the cam 25 has a substantially higher peak in the upper half so that the head 18 of the push-up piece 20 projects outside the cylindrical portion of the pulley 6.
本発明の装置は、鉛筆のような細径のものから
ジユース缶のようなものまで、円柱ないし円筒状
の棒材の整列に利用することができる。その場合
揺動させる棒１４の径は棒材の径より小さい方が
好ましい。 The device of the present invention can be used to align cylindrical or cylindrical rods ranging from small diameter rods such as pencils to those such as youth cans. In this case, the diameter of the swinging rod 14 is preferably smaller than the diameter of the rod.
