Description

本発明はびん搬送装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a bottle transport device.

特許文献1には、びんの搬送時における転倒を防止するため、びんのネック部に毛束を対向させて配置することが開示されている。   Patent Document 1 discloses that a hair bundle is disposed so as to face a neck portion of a bottle in order to prevent the bottle from falling during conveyance.

一方、びん搬送装置では、図6に示すように、びん103の供給部100においてびん103を均等に供給するため、分岐ガイド105を設けてあり、この分岐ガイド105は平面視略V字状に設けている。   On the other hand, in the bottle transport device, as shown in FIG. 6, a branch guide 105 is provided in order to supply the bottle 103 evenly in the supply unit 100 of the bottle 103, and this branch guide 105 is substantially V-shaped in plan view. Provided.

登録実用新案第3004705号公報Registered Utility Model No. 3004705

しかし、特許文献1に記載の従来技術は、びんのネック部に毛束を対向させて配置する構成であるため、整列して搬送されるびんの倒れを防止する場合に適しているが、複数本のびんが搬送される場合には適用できないという問題がある。   However, since the prior art described in Patent Document 1 has a configuration in which the hair bundle is disposed to face the neck portion of the bottle, it is suitable for preventing the bottles that are conveyed in an aligned manner from falling down. There is a problem that it cannot be applied when book bottles are transported.

また、図6に示す従来技術は、供給部100において、V字状の分岐ガイド105の搬送方向下流側からびん103が分岐ガイド105の裏側に回り込んで、びん103が倒れることがあった。このように、びんが倒れると、倒れたびんが邪魔になって安定したびんの供給が困難であるという問題がある。   In the prior art shown in FIG. 6, in the supply unit 100, the bottle 103 may fall from the downstream side of the V-shaped branch guide 105 in the transport direction to the back side of the branch guide 105, and the bottle 103 may fall down. Thus, when a bottle falls, there is a problem that it is difficult to supply a stable bottle because the fallen bottle gets in the way.

本発明は、びんの倒れを防止して、安定したびんの供給を行うことができるびん搬送装置を提供することを目的とする。   An object of the present invention is to provide a bottle transport device that can prevent bottles from falling over and can stably supply bottles.

In particular, even if the bottle is relatively light, such as a small bottle, it can be prevented from falling.

以下に、添付図面を参照して、本発明の実施の形態を詳細に説明する。図1は図4に示すびん搬送装置の要部を示す斜視図、図2は図1に示すびん搬送装置の要部を示す側面図、図3は図4に示すびん搬送装置の要部を示す平面図、図4はびん搬送装置の全体を示す平面図である。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the main part of the bottle conveying device shown in FIG. 4, FIG. 2 is a side view showing the main part of the bottle conveying device shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 shows the main part of the bottle conveying device shown in FIG. FIG. 4 is a plan view showing the entire bottle transport device.

本発明の実施の形態に係るびん搬送装置1は、ビールの製造工程において、空のビールびん3を洗びん部に向けて搬送する装置であり、洗びん部に供給するビールびん(びん)3を整列させる整列部5と、整列部5の手前でビールびん3を整列部5に供給する供給部7と、供給部7にビールびん3を導入する導入部9とを備えている。また、供給部7には導入部9から搬送されたビールびん3の移動を案内する分岐ガイド13を備えている。また、供給部7と整列部5との間には供給部7から整列部5に向うビールびん3の搬送量を規制する捌き部11を備えている。尚、本実施の形態では、ビールびん3として特に小びんを用いている。   The bottle transport device 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is a device that transports an empty beer bottle 3 toward a washing bottle part in a beer manufacturing process, and the beer bottle (bottle) 3 supplied to the washing bottle part. Are arranged, a supply unit 7 for supplying the beer bottle 3 to the alignment unit 5 before the alignment unit 5, and an introduction unit 9 for introducing the beer bottle 3 into the supply unit 7. In addition, the supply unit 7 includes a branch guide 13 that guides the movement of the beer bottle 3 conveyed from the introduction unit 9. Further, between the supply unit 7 and the alignment unit 5, there is provided a brewing unit 11 that regulates the transport amount of the beer bottle 3 from the supply unit 7 toward the alignment unit 5. In the present embodiment, a small bottle is particularly used as the beer bottle 3.

整列部5は、搬送方向に沿って両サイドの幅が序々に狭まった整列ガイド6を備えており、整列ガイド6で所定の数に整列させたビールびん3を洗びん部に搬送するようになっている。   The alignment unit 5 includes an alignment guide 6 in which the widths of both sides are gradually narrowed along the conveyance direction, and the beer bottles 3 arranged in a predetermined number by the alignment guide 6 are conveyed to the washing bottle unit. It has become.

供給部7の入り口部分には、ビールびん3の搬送方向と直交して潤滑剤供給管17が配設されており、潤滑剤供給管17に突設したコーティングノズル15からビールびん3の表面に潤滑剤を塗布するようになっている。   A lubricant supply pipe 17 is disposed at the entrance of the supply unit 7 in a direction orthogonal to the conveying direction of the beer bottle 3, and the coating nozzle 15 projecting from the lubricant supply pipe 17 is provided on the surface of the beer bottle 3. Lubricant is applied.

分岐ガイド13は、供給部7の天井壁19に吊下げられた円柱状の支持部材21に固定されており、角が搬送方向の上流側及び下流側に位置する平面視六角形状となっている。また、支持部材21は分岐ガイド13の上流側の角に溶接固定されている。また分岐ガイド13は、金属板にフッ素系の合成樹脂を貼り付けて構成されており、分岐ガイド13の案内壁面14の摩擦係数が小さくなり、案内壁面14に沿ってビールびん3のスムーズな移動が可能である。   The branch guide 13 is fixed to a columnar support member 21 suspended from the ceiling wall 19 of the supply unit 7 and has a hexagonal shape in plan view with corners positioned on the upstream side and the downstream side in the transport direction. . The support member 21 is fixed by welding at the corner on the upstream side of the branch guide 13. Further, the branch guide 13 is configured by adhering a fluorine-based synthetic resin to a metal plate, the friction coefficient of the guide wall surface 14 of the branch guide 13 is reduced, and the beer bottle 3 moves smoothly along the guide wall surface 14. Is possible.

また分岐ガイド13は、ビールびん3の胴部と略同じ高さ位置に設けており、下端が供給部7の床面から所定間隔を開けた位置にあるとともに、上端がビールびん3のネック部の下側に位置するようになっている。   Further, the branch guide 13 is provided at substantially the same height as the body portion of the beer bottle 3, the lower end is located at a predetermined distance from the floor surface of the supply unit 7, and the upper end is the neck portion of the beer bottle 3. It is located on the lower side.

次に、本実施の形態に係る作用を説明する。びん搬送装置1において、複数列に亘って搬送されてきたビールびん3は、導入部9から供給部7に供給される。供給部7に供給されたビールびん3は、表面にコーティングノズル15から潤滑剤が塗布された後、分岐ガイド13によって均等に振り分けられ、整列部5に向けて搬送される。また、供給部7と整列部5の間に設けられた捌き部11によりビールびん3の搬送が規制され、規制されたビールびん3は供給部7側に戻される。整列部5に搬送されたビールびん3は、整列ガイド6で整列させられた後、洗びん部に送られる。   Next, the effect | action which concerns on this Embodiment is demonstrated. In the bottle transport device 1, the beer bottles 3 transported over a plurality of rows are supplied from the introduction unit 9 to the supply unit 7. The beer bottle 3 supplied to the supply unit 7 is coated with a lubricant from the coating nozzle 15 on the surface, and is evenly distributed by the branch guide 13 and conveyed toward the alignment unit 5. Moreover, the conveyance of the beer bottle 3 is restricted by the brewing part 11 provided between the supply part 7 and the alignment part 5, and the restricted beer bottle 3 is returned to the supply part 7 side. The beer bottles 3 conveyed to the alignment unit 5 are aligned by the alignment guide 6 and then sent to the washing bottle unit.

一方、供給部7側に戻されたビールびん3aは分岐ガイド13の案内壁面14に突き当たった後、案内壁面14に沿って図3中一点鎖線で示す位置(3b)まで移動する。そして、再び整列部5に向けて搬送される。   On the other hand, the beer bottle 3a returned to the supply section 7 side abuts against the guide wall surface 14 of the branch guide 13, and then moves along the guide wall surface 14 to the position (3b) indicated by the one-dot chain line in FIG. And it is conveyed toward the alignment part 5 again.

このように、分岐ガイド13は搬送方向下流側が角になっているので、逆流したビールびん3が分岐ガイド13の案内壁面14に沿ってスムーズに案内されるので、ビールびん3の倒れを防止でき、安定したビールびん3の供給を行うことができる。   Thus, since the branch guide 13 has a corner on the downstream side in the transport direction, the beer bottle 3 that has flowed back is smoothly guided along the guide wall surface 14 of the branch guide 13, so that the beer bottle 3 can be prevented from falling over. A stable beer bottle 3 can be supplied.

分岐ガイド13をビールびん3の胴部と略同じ位置に設けたので、分岐ガイド13とビールびん3との接触面積を広くとることができ、ビールびん3の倒れをさらに防止できる。   Since the branch guide 13 is provided at substantially the same position as the trunk of the beer bottle 3, the contact area between the branch guide 13 and the beer bottle 3 can be increased, and the beer bottle 3 can be prevented from falling over.

尚、本発明は上述した実施の形態に限定されず、その要旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々の変形が可能である。   The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

本実施の形態では、分岐ガイド13は平面視六角形状にしたが、これに限定されず、図5に示すように、平面視ひし形形状であっても良いし、平面視五角形状であっても良い。   In the present embodiment, the branch guide 13 has a hexagonal shape in plan view, but is not limited thereto, and may be a rhombus shape in plan view or a pentagonal shape in plan view as shown in FIG. good.

また、ビールびん3は大びんであっても良い。また、ビールびんに限らず、ワイン用、焼酎用のびんであっても良いし、ソフトドリンク用のびんであっても良い。   The beer bottle 3 may be a large bottle. Moreover, it is not limited to beer bottles, and may be wine or shochu bottles or soft drink bottles.
