【発明の詳細な説明】 〔産業上の利用分野〕 本発明は容器の水分除去装置に係り、特に壜等の容器外
面に付着した水滴等の水分を除去するための容器の水分
除去装置に関する。Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a water removing device for a container, and more particularly to a water removing device for a container for removing water such as water droplets attached to the outer surface of a container such as a bottle.
飲料や薬品等の内容物が充填された壜等の容器にラベリ
ングをする場合、あるいは倉庫等に保管する場合、従前
の工程において容器外面に付着した水滴等の水分を除去
することが必要となる。When labeling a container such as a bottle filled with contents such as beverages and medicines, or storing it in a warehouse, it is necessary to remove water such as water droplets attached to the outer surface of the container in the previous process. .
従来、容器外面に付着した水滴を除去する装置として、

し、容器外面に付着している水滴は吸着除去される。ま
た、容器上部の凹部に存する水滴はフラッシングノズル
により排除される。Conventionally, as a device for removing water droplets attached to the outer surface of the container,
For example, there is one disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 59-196493, which is provided with a wiping member composed of a rotating body or an endless belt and one side edge of a conveyer conveyor and facing the wiping member. A fixed guide and a flushing nozzle for injecting high-pressure air toward the container are provided, and the container conveyed from the upstream side of the conveyor is sandwiched between the wiping member and the fixed guide, and is rotated by the rotation of the wiping member. Then, while being rotated, it is conveyed to the downstream side, the outer peripheral surface of the container comes into contact with the wiping member during this period, and the water droplets adhering to the outer surface of the container are adsorbed and removed. Further, the water droplets existing in the concave portion on the upper part of the container are removed by the flushing nozzle.
しかしながら、上述した従来の水滴除去装置は、回転体
又は無端ベルトからなる拭取部材に容器の搬送機能と回

んだ拭取部材の拭取面が次には下流側の容器と接触し、
下流側の容器を乾いた拭取面で拭くことができず水分除
去が不完全になるという問題点がある。However, in the above-described conventional water drop removing device, the wiping member composed of the rotating body or the endless belt has the container conveying function and the rotating function, so that the rotating direction of the wiping member is the same as the traveling direction of the container. Must-have. for that reason,
The wiping surface of the wiping member that has contacted the upstream side container with the largest amount of water droplets and contained water then contacts the downstream side container,
There is a problem that the downstream side container cannot be wiped with a dry wiping surface and the water removal is incomplete.
また、固定ガイドと回転する拭取部材とにより容器は挟

拭き取るには、少くとも容器を１回転以上させる必要が
あり固定ガイドの長さが長くなり、又、拭取部材の外径
が大きくなるとともに拭取時間が長くなるという問題点
がある。Further, since the container is sandwiched by the fixed guide and the rotating wiping member, and the container is designed to rotate with the rotation of the wiping member, the rotation speed is slow and the entire circumference of the container can be wiped off. However, there is a problem that it is necessary to rotate the container at least once, and the length of the fixed guide becomes long, and the wiping member becomes large in outer diameter and the wiping time becomes long.
さらに、拭取部材が回転体によって形成されている場合

吸水された水分が拭取部材の外側面に集まり拭取機能を
低下させるため、拭取部材の回転速度を所定速度以下に
押さえる必要があり、装置の高速化を妨げているという
問題点がある。Furthermore, when the wiping member is formed of a rotating body, when the wiping member is rotated at a high speed, water absorbed by centrifugal force gathers on the outer surface of the wiping member and deteriorates the wiping function. There is a problem that it is necessary to keep the rotation speed of the wiping member below a predetermined speed, which hinders the speeding up of the device.

An object of the present invention is to provide a water removing device for a container that can be designed.

V2の関係になるように設定されている。In FIG. 1, the running direction of the running belt 5 and the carrying direction of the carrying conveyor 1 are the same direction, and the water absorbing belt 11a.
The traveling direction of 11c and the traveling direction of the traveling belt 5 are opposite directions. Assuming that the traveling speed of the traveling belt 5 is V 1 and the traveling speed of the water absorption belts 11a to 11c is V 2 , each traveling speed is V 1 >

Water such as water droplets attached to the upper outer surface of the bottle B is completely adsorbed and removed by the water absorption belt 11a, and moisture attached to the lower outer surface of the bottle B is completely adsorbed and removed by the lower water absorption belt 11b. Then, the squeeze roller 18 is pressed against the water-absorbent belts 11a and 11c containing water, and the absorbed water is squeezed out.

化を図ることができる。As described above, since the traveling directions of the water absorbing belts 11a and 11b are opposite to the conveying direction of the bottle B, the relatively dry water absorbing surface immediately after the water is squeezed out by the squeezing roller 18 is the upstream water absorbing belt. Contact bottle B on the downstream side of device 8A,
Water on bottle B is completely removed. Further, the bottle B sandwiched between the traveling belt 5 and the water absorbing belts 11a and 11b traveling in opposite directions rotates about its own axis, and the rotation speed thereof becomes high, so that the traveling belt 5 and the water absorbing belts 11a and 11b are small in size. In addition, the time required for removing water can be shortened.

The water absorption belt 11c absorbs the moisture attached to the outer peripheral surface of the central portion of the bottle body. The water absorbed by the water absorption belt 11c is squeezed out by the squeeze roller 18.
以上のようにして、吸水ベルト11a〜11cによって壜Ｂの
外周面に付着した全ての水分が拭き取られる。As described above, all the water adhering to the outer peripheral surface of the bottle B is wiped off by the water absorbing belts 11a to 11c.

By contacting the container on the side, it is possible to completely and surely remove water from the container.

ることが出来る。Furthermore, according to the present invention, the first water absorbing belt and the second water absorbing belt that face the traveling belt on the upstream side and the downstream side in the conveying direction, respectively, are provided, so that the container to be conveyed can be wiped off. , Can be performed in two stages, upstream and downstream in the transport direction. As a result, the first water absorption belt and the second water absorption belt are attached at different heights, and the outer surface of the container is partially wiped off by the first water absorption belt on the upstream side, but not wiped off by the first water absorption belt. It becomes possible to wipe off the other part of the outer surface of the container by the second water absorbing belt on the downstream side. In this case, for both the first water absorption belt and the second water absorption belt, it is possible to use a water absorption belt having a belt width smaller than the width of the container, and by doing so, the water absorption belt is damaged. In this case, only the damaged belt of the first water absorption belt and the second water absorption belt needs to be replaced, which is economical and supports the first water absorption belt and the second water absorption belt. It is possible to simplify the support structure of these pulleys by adjusting the axial length of the pulleys to be circulated and run in line with the width of the belt and shortening it compared to when wiping the container with one water absorption belt. It will be possible. It is also possible to attach the first water-absorbing belt and the second water-absorbing belt at the same height, and in this case, wipe the bottle twice to completely remove the moisture adhering to the bottle. Can be absorbed and removed.

Since the belt is closely attached along the outer shape of the container, complete water absorption can be performed.

As a result, each water absorption belt does not meander.
