Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to a method for binding seaweed bundles with tape.

``Prior art'' Conventionally, the seaweed bundles folded by a double folding machine were unloaded by extruding 10 bundles into 10 bundles (Tokuko Sho).
No. 59-45341), bound with highly hygroscopic washi tape. However, the bundling of double-folded seaweed bundles, which are easily damaged, requires great care, and the bundling is done exclusively by hand, requiring great skill.

``Problems to be Solved by the Invention'' The present invention aims to tie the knots of the end-butting pieces of paper tape wrapped around the 10 double-folded seaweed bundles mechanically extruded from the above-mentioned double-folding machine for seaweed bundles. The purpose is to safely tie bundles without damaging them by tying the bundles without touching them and without requiring skill.

``Means for Solving the Problems'' The present invention involves binding 10 double-folded 10-sheet seaweed bundles with tape, compressing the seaweed bundles by contacting them with a grooved double plate. Wrap the tape around the seaweed bundle and the double board, fold the tape end abutting piece at right angles to the hanging tape on the outside of the double board, and shape the middle of the folded abutment piece into the groove shape. Insert it inside the double plate,
It is constructed by a seaweed bundle binding method characterized in that the same double plates are then separated and a knot is formed.

``Operation'' Therefore, 10 double-folded 10-sheet seaweed bundles are stacked, the groove-shaped double plate is brought into contact with this to compress the seaweed bundles, and a strip of tape is attached between the same plate and the seaweed bundles. The ends of the tape are abutted on the outside of the same plate, the abutting piece is folded back in a direction perpendicular to the same tape (Fig. 11), and the folded part is further folded toward the same tape (12).
figure). In this state, the orthogonally folded abutment piece is pushed into the groove between the double plates (see FIGS. 8 and 9). Thereafter, when the double plate is separated and the compression is released, the seaweed bundle expands due to its restoring force, tensioning the tape, and in this state, the bundled seaweed bundle shown in FIG. 14 is formed.

``Example'' Nori bundle support plates 2, 2 are provided on the machine frame 1 through the loop tape insertion groove 9, and nori bundle support plates 9, 9 are respectively erected on the same plates 2, 2. Seaweed bundle compression plates 3, 3 facing 9, 9 are provided. Air cylinders 10,
10 and supported on support plates 2, 2
1 can be compressed by pressing it toward the receiving plates 9, 9 by the compression plates 3, 3. Receiving plate 9,
In the tape passing gap t formed between 9 and 9, a reciprocating sliding grooved double plate 4 arranged parallel to the outside of the receiving plates 9 and 9 is attached to the air cylinder 12 at the position shown by the imaginary line in FIG. Therefore, it can move forward and stop, and then move back and stop at the position indicated by the solid line in the figure. I did it like this 2
A perpendicular folding device 6 for the end abutting pieces 5 of the seaweed bundle wrapping tape is provided on the outside of the heavy plate 4. In this device 6, at least one of the horizontal and vertical undulation plates 13 and 14 provided on both sides of the tape passing gap t can be moved toward and away from the receiving plate 9 by an air cylinder 15, and one of the undulation plates 14 is arranged such that it can be raised and lowered freely by a cylinder 16, and on one of the undulating plates 14,
It has a knife-shaped abutting piece holding plate 17 cut out at 45 degrees, and a reciprocating sliding plate 8 with an air cylinder 18 is provided on the holding plate 17 in parallel with the holding plate 17, and the undulating plate 14 is lowered and raised. The sliding plate 8 faces the groove opening of the double plate 4 as shown in FIG. Also, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 7, this undulation plate 14 can be slid back and forth along the receiving plate 9 by an air cylinder 19, and the presser plate 8 provided on the undulation plate 14 can be slid back and forth. can be moved.
The other undulating plate 13 has an abutting piece folding tongue piece 20 that slides back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the 45-degree blade surface of the presser plate 17.
It is made up of the following. The sliding plate 8 is adapted to push the middle of the orthogonally folded abutment piece 7 into the groove 21 between the two plates as shown in FIGS. 8 to 9. After pushing, the double plate 4 moves back to the solid line position in Figure 1 to open the tape passage gap t, and when the seaweed bundle compression plates 3, 3 return to their original positions, the seaweed bundle 11 expands due to its restoring force. As shown in FIG. 14, they are tied together with tape 22 and knot 23. In the figure, 24 indicates a chain for hanging the tape, 25 indicates a tape end suction cup provided on the chain 24, 26 indicates a hinge for undulating the undulating plates 13 and 14, and 27 indicates a folding piece provided on the undulating plate 13. Reference numeral 5 indicates a reciprocating rotary rod for holding down, 28 indicates an abutment piece holder provided on the undulating plate 13, 29 in FIG.
This is the hook set at 5.

"Effect" Since the present invention is based on the method described above, the knot 23 of the end abutment piece 5 of the tape 22 wrapped around the seaweed bundle 11
can be formed without touching the seaweed bundles 11, and the seaweed bundles can be safely bound without requiring any skill.
