Description

本発明は、収容箱支持手段に支持された収容箱へ物品を箱詰めするために収容箱へ複数の物品を投入する物品投入機構及び物品投入設備に関する。   The present invention relates to an article loading mechanism and an article loading facility for loading a plurality of articles into a storage box in order to pack the articles into the storage box supported by the storage box support means.

従来から、柑橘、馬鈴薯、玉ねぎ等の青果物（物品）を収容箱へ投入するとともに投入した物品の重量を計量器により計量することによって、収容箱へ一定重量の物品を箱詰めする自動計量箱詰装置及び自動計量箱詰方法が知られている。例えば、特許文献１〜５において、収容箱を傾動させた状態で青果物等の物品を箱詰めする旨について記載されている。   Conventionally, an automatic weighing boxing device that packs a certain weight of goods into a storage box by putting fruits and vegetables (articles) such as citrus fruits, potatoes, onions, etc. into the storage box and weighing the weight of the input goods with a measuring instrument. And automatic weighing boxing methods are known. For example, Patent Documents 1 to 5 describe that articles such as fruits and vegetables are packed in a state where the storage box is tilted.

特許文献１には、大小２種類の空箱用の空箱搬送ラインを上下２段に２本設け、上段の空箱搬送ライン上の空箱を仮受傾斜落下板によりＶ形受台へ落下させることにより、大小２種類の空箱に対応して箱詰できる旨が記載されている。また、特許文献２には、進退自在のベロシュート上で物品を滑動させて収容箱内へ案内することにより、緩やかな物品の投入が得られ、物品の損傷を容易に防止できる旨が記載されている。   In Patent Document 1, two empty box transfer lines for two types of large and small empty boxes are provided in two upper and lower stages, and the empty boxes on the upper empty box transfer line are dropped to a V-shaped cradle by a provisional inclined falling plate. Describes that packaging can be performed corresponding to two types of large and small empty boxes. Patent Document 2 describes that the article can be slid on a freely moving vero chute and guided into the storage box, so that the article can be gradually put in and the article can be easily prevented from being damaged. ing.

しかしながら、特許文献１に記載する二段切替箱詰装置の場合、青果物の投入部においては、大小２種類の収容箱に対応するように構成されておらず、例えば、収容箱が小さすぎる場合には、投入しようとする青果物が収容箱の外に落下する。一方で、収容箱が大きすぎる場合には、投入するコンベヤに収容箱が干渉する。また、特許文献２に記載する物品投入装置の場合、ベロシュートにより物品を案内して収容箱に投入するが、そのベロシュートが変形するため、収容箱内の所望の位置へ物品を投入することができず、物品の投入作業を安定して行うことができない。   However, in the case of the two-stage switching boxing device described in Patent Document 1, the fruit and vegetable charging unit is not configured to accommodate two types of storage boxes, for example, when the storage box is too small. , The fruits and vegetables to be dropped fall out of the storage box. On the other hand, when the storage box is too large, the storage box interferes with the input conveyor. Further, in the case of the article loading device described in Patent Document 2, the article is guided by the velocette and placed in the storage box. However, since the velocette is deformed, the article is placed at a desired position in the storage box. This makes it impossible to stably carry out the work of loading articles.

コンベヤ１８は、図２に示すように、供給コンベヤ６６から供給される青果物１６を搬出部２２までＸ軸正方向に搬送するように構成されている。コンベヤ１８の態様は、物品をローラーコンベヤ上で移動させる態様、物品を無端回動チェーンに保持された載置台に載置して移動させる態様、物品を無端回動ベルト上に載置して移動させる態様等、特に限定されない。コンベヤ１８の搬出部２２には、図示しない駆動手段により平面視において回動され、青果物１６を収容箱１４に投入しない時には青果物１６を搬出部２２に止めるブラシ９０が設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the conveyor 18 is configured to convey the fruits and vegetables 16 supplied from the supply conveyor 66 to the carry-out portion 22 in the X-axis positive direction. The aspect of the conveyor 18 is an aspect in which an article is moved on a roller conveyor, an aspect in which an article is placed on a mounting table held by an endless rotating chain, and an article is moved on an endless rotating belt. There are no particular restrictions on the mode of application. The carry-out portion 22 of the conveyor 18 is provided with a brush 90 that is rotated in a plan view by a driving unit (not shown) and stops the fruits and vegetables 16 on the carry-out portion 22 when the fruits and vegetables 16 are not put into the storage box 14.

なお、供給コンベヤ６６と平面視平行に他の供給コンベヤ６８が設けられている。供給コンベヤ６８は、コンベヤ２０を介して収容箱１４へ青果物１６を大量に投入するためのコンベヤであるのに対して、供給コンベヤ６６は、コンベヤ１８を介して収容箱１４内の青果物１６の重量が一定重量に達するまで、青果物１６を収容箱１４に投入するためのコンベヤである。供給コンベヤ６６の搬送面９２は供給コンベヤ６８の搬送面９４よりも低く構成されるとともに、搬送面９２と搬送面９４との間には段差があるのみで仕切り手段がなく、搬送面９４上の青果物１６が搬送面９２へ転動し移動できる。   Note that another supply conveyor 68 is provided in parallel with the supply conveyor 66 in plan view. The supply conveyor 68 is a conveyor for loading a large amount of fruits and vegetables 16 into the storage box 14 via the conveyor 20, whereas the supply conveyor 66 is a weight of the fruits and vegetables 16 in the storage box 14 via the conveyor 18. Is a conveyor for putting the fruits and vegetables 16 into the storage box 14 until the weight reaches a certain weight. The conveyance surface 92 of the supply conveyor 66 is configured to be lower than the conveyance surface 94 of the supply conveyor 68, and there is no partition means between the conveyance surface 92 and the conveyance surface 94, and there is no partitioning means. The fruits and vegetables 16 can roll and move to the conveying surface 92.

可動案内部材２４は、搬出部２２から離隔した時にコンベヤ１８の下方に位置し、シリンダ２６によって斜め下方から搬出部２２に接近するように構成されている。また、青果物１６を案内する案内面２８は、案内方向先端部３０が下方に傾斜する平面であり、青果物１６が転動して収容箱１４内に投入されるように構成されている。なお、図１においては、案内面２８の水平面に対する傾斜角度は２５°である。可動案内部材２４の材質は、変形しない部材であれば、金属又は樹脂等、特に限定されない。また、可動案内部材２４の周囲をフッ素系のスポンジ等の弾性部材で覆ってもよい。また、可動案内部材２４及び中間案内部材３２は、図４に示すように、コの字形断面を有し、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２へ接近させた時には、可動案内部材２４が中間案内部材３２を覆いながら中間案内部材３２に重なるように構成されている。   The movable guide member 24 is positioned below the conveyor 18 when being separated from the carry-out portion 22, and is configured to approach the carry-out portion 22 from obliquely below by a cylinder 26. The guide surface 28 that guides the fruits and vegetables 16 is a flat surface in which the front end portion 30 in the guide direction is inclined downward, and is configured such that the fruits and vegetables 16 roll into the storage box 14. In FIG. 1, the inclination angle of the guide surface 28 with respect to the horizontal plane is 25 °. The material of the movable guide member 24 is not particularly limited as long as it is a member that does not deform, such as metal or resin. Further, the periphery of the movable guide member 24 may be covered with an elastic member such as a fluorine-based sponge. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the movable guide member 24 and the intermediate guide member 32 have a U-shaped cross section, and when the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22, the movable guide member 24 is moved to the intermediate guide member. It is configured to overlap the intermediate guide member 32 while covering 32.

角度調節手段５０は、図５に示すように、シリンダ２６に固定された取付具７２と、取付具７２に設けられピストン運動方向に平行な２個の長孔７４及び７６と、支柱７０に設けられた円孔７８と、支柱７０に設けられ円孔７８の中心まわりの回転方向に延びる長孔８０と、から構成されている。長孔７４を円孔７８へボルト８２によって固定し、長孔７６を長孔８０へボルト８４によって固定することにより、シリンダ２６を支柱に固定する。ボルト８２及び８４を緩めて、シリンダ２６を支柱７０に対して円孔７８の中心まわりに角度Δθの範囲で回転させることにより、可動案内部材２４の案内面２８の傾斜角度θを調節することができる。これにより、青果物１６の収容箱１４への投入角度及び投入速度を微調節することができる。なお、案内面２８の傾斜角度θを変えることにより、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２へ接近させた時における可動案内部材２４と中間案内部材３２との位置関係が変わるが、シリンダ２６を距離ΔＬの範囲でピストン運動方向に移動させることにより、その位置関係を、可動案内部材２４と中間案内部材３２とが干渉しないように調節できる。すなわち、シリンダ２６の位置をピストン運動方向で調節できることによって、可動案内部材２４と中間案内部材３２との干渉を防止しつつ、可動案内部材２４の案内面２８の傾斜角度θを調節することが可能となる。   As shown in FIG. 5, the angle adjusting means 50 is provided in an attachment 72 fixed to the cylinder 26, two long holes 74 and 76 provided in the attachment 72 and parallel to the piston movement direction, and the support 70. And a long hole 80 provided in the support column 70 and extending in the rotational direction around the center of the circular hole 78. By fixing the long hole 74 to the circular hole 78 by the bolt 82 and fixing the long hole 76 to the long hole 80 by the bolt 84, the cylinder 26 is fixed to the support column. The inclination angle θ of the guide surface 28 of the movable guide member 24 can be adjusted by loosening the bolts 82 and 84 and rotating the cylinder 26 with respect to the column 70 around the center of the circular hole 78 in the range of the angle Δθ. it can. Thereby, the throwing angle and throwing speed of the fruits and vegetables 16 into the storage box 14 can be finely adjusted. By changing the inclination angle θ of the guide surface 28, the positional relationship between the movable guide member 24 and the intermediate guide member 32 when the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22 is changed. In this range, the positional relationship can be adjusted so that the movable guide member 24 and the intermediate guide member 32 do not interfere with each other. That is, the position of the cylinder 26 can be adjusted in the piston movement direction, so that the inclination angle θ of the guide surface 28 of the movable guide member 24 can be adjusted while preventing the interference between the movable guide member 24 and the intermediate guide member 32. It becomes.

また、中間案内部材３２を着脱可能にコンベヤ１８の搬出部２２に固定し、異なる傾斜角度の案内面３４を有する中間案内部材３２と交換可能とすることにより、又は、中間案内部材３２の角度調節可能とすることにより、案内面３４の傾斜角度が調節可能な構成としてもよい。案内面３４の傾斜角度が調節可能な構成とすることにより、又は、上記角度調節手段５０により、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２へ接近させた時における可動案内部材２４の案内面２８と中間案内部材３２の案内面３４との角度を調節できる。例えば、案内面２８と案内面３４との角度を、図４（ａ）に示すように同一にすることができる。また、案内面２８の傾斜角度を案内面３４の傾斜角度よりも大きくすることも小さくすることもできる。案内面２８と案内面３４との角度を調節することによっても、青果物１６の収容箱１４への投入角度及び投入速度を微調節することができる。   Further, the intermediate guide member 32 is detachably fixed to the carry-out portion 22 of the conveyor 18 and can be exchanged with the intermediate guide member 32 having the guide surface 34 having a different inclination angle, or the angle of the intermediate guide member 32 is adjusted. It is good also as a structure which can adjust the inclination-angle of the guide surface 34 by enabling. By adopting a configuration in which the inclination angle of the guide surface 34 can be adjusted, or when the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22 by the angle adjusting means 50, the guide surface 28 and the intermediate guide of the movable guide member 24 are arranged. The angle of the member 32 with the guide surface 34 can be adjusted. For example, the angles of the guide surface 28 and the guide surface 34 can be made the same as shown in FIG. Further, the inclination angle of the guide surface 28 can be made larger or smaller than the inclination angle of the guide surface 34. By adjusting the angle between the guide surface 28 and the guide surface 34, it is also possible to finely adjust the input angle and the input speed of the fruits and vegetables 16 into the storage box 14.

このような構成の物品投入機構１０及び物品投入設備４０の作用について、以下に説明する。なお、物品投入機構１０及び物品投入設備４０は、図２及び図３に示すように、選果場において、複数台配設されて使用される。以下においては、青果物１６であるみかんが、この選果場で箱詰めされる場合について、その作用を説明する。また、以下に示す搬送、移転、移動、傾動、離隔又は接近は、制御手段により自動的に行われる。   The operation of the article input mechanism 10 and the article input equipment 40 having such a configuration will be described below. In addition, as shown in FIG.2 and FIG.3, the article | item throwing-in mechanism 10 and the article | item throwing-in equipment 40 are arranged and used by two or more units | sets in a fruit selection field. Below, the effect | action is demonstrated about the case where the oranges which are the fruits and vegetables 16 are boxed in this fruit selection field. Further, the following conveyance, relocation, movement, tilting, separation or approach is automatically performed by the control means.

図３に示すように、箱詰めを行う青果物１６は、まず、原料供給ライン１１０から前処理ライン１１２へ搬送される。前処理ライン１１２においては、小玉抜機、人手による一次選定部、洗浄機、ワックス機、乾燥機及び人手による二次選定部において前処理がなされる。前処理が行われた青果物１６は、２８本の搬送コンベヤ１１４に振り分けられＸ軸正方向に搬送される。２８本の搬送コンベヤ１１４は、全てが使用されるとは限らず、１部のみが使用されてもよい。また、搬送コンベヤ１１４の態様は、小片支持式搬送コンベヤの態様の他、青果物１６をローラーコンベヤ上で移動させる態様、青果物１６を無端回動チェーンに保持された載置台に載置して移動させる態様、青果物１６を直接無端回動ベルト上に載置して移動させる態様等、特に限定されない。   As shown in FIG. 3, the fruits and vegetables 16 to be boxed are first transported from the raw material supply line 110 to the pretreatment line 112. In the pretreatment line 112, pretreatment is performed in a ball picker, a manual primary selection unit, a washing machine, a wax machine, a dryer, and a manual secondary selection unit. The pre-processed fruits and vegetables 16 are distributed to 28 conveyors 114 and conveyed in the positive X-axis direction. Not all 28 conveyors 114 are used, and only one part may be used. Moreover, the aspect of the conveyance conveyor 114 is the aspect which moves the fruit and vegetables 16 on a roller conveyor other than the aspect of a small piece support type conveyance conveyor, and places and moves the fruits and vegetables 16 on the mounting stand hold | maintained at the endless rotation chain. An aspect, the aspect which mounts and moves the fruit and vegetables 16 directly on an endless rotation belt, etc. are not specifically limited.

搬送コンベヤ１１４によってＸ軸正方向に搬送された青果物１６は、搬送コンベヤ１１４に対して直角方向に延びる搬送コンベヤ１１６に移転され、搬送コンベヤ１１６によってＹ軸正方向に搬送される。搬送コンベヤ１１６の態様は、小片支持式搬送コンベヤの態様の他、青果物１６をローラーコンベヤ上で移動させる態様、青果物１６を無端回動チェーンに保持された載置台に載置して移動させる態様、青果物１６を直接無端回動ベルト上に載置して移動させる態様等、特に限定されない。   The fruits and vegetables 16 transported in the X-axis positive direction by the transport conveyor 114 are transferred to the transport conveyor 116 extending in a direction perpendicular to the transport conveyor 114 and are transported by the transport conveyor 116 in the Y-axis positive direction. The mode of the transport conveyor 116 is a mode in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are moved on a roller conveyor in addition to the mode of the small piece support type transport conveyor, the mode in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are mounted and moved on a mounting table held by an endless rotating chain, A mode in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are directly placed on the endless rotating belt and moved is not particularly limited.

搬送コンベヤ１１６には供給コンベヤ６６及び６８が連続し、搬送コンベヤ１１６によって搬送された青果物１６は、連続して、図２に示すように、コンベヤ６６及び６８上をＹ軸正方向に搬送される。コンベヤ６８上の青果物１６は、コンベヤ６８と直角方向に延びるコンベヤ２０に移転されてコンベヤ２０によってＸ軸正方向に搬送され、コンベヤ６６上の青果物１６は、コンベヤ６６と直角方向に延びるコンベヤ１８に移転されてコンベヤ１８によってＸ軸正方向に搬送される。   Supply conveyors 66 and 68 are connected to the transfer conveyor 116, and the fruits and vegetables 16 transferred by the transfer conveyor 116 are successively transferred on the conveyors 66 and 68 in the positive direction of the Y axis as shown in FIG. . The fruits and vegetables 16 on the conveyor 68 are transferred to the conveyor 20 extending in a direction perpendicular to the conveyor 68 and conveyed by the conveyor 20 in the X-axis positive direction, and the fruits and vegetables 16 on the conveyor 66 are transferred to the conveyor 18 extending in a direction perpendicular to the conveyor 66. It is moved and conveyed in the positive direction of the X axis by the conveyor 18.

コンベヤ２０によってＸ軸正方向に搬送された青果物１６は、第一投入部Ａにおいて、収容箱１４に大量に投入される。この時、収容箱１４は、図示しない傾動手段によって傾斜させられる。第一投入部Ａにおいて青果物１６が投入された収容箱１４は、図示しない押圧部材等の移動手段によってＹ軸正方向に第二投入部Ｂまで移動させられる。第一投入部Ａから第二投入部Ｂへ移動する収容箱１４は、水平な状態であっても傾斜させられていてもよい。なお、第一投入部Ａへの空の収容箱１４の搬入は、図２に示す収容箱搬入部Ｃから、図示しない移動手段によって行われ、収容箱搬入部Ｃへの空の収容箱１４の搬入は、収容箱搬入部Ｄから、図示しない移動手段によって行われ、収容箱搬入部Ｄへの空の収容箱１４の搬入は、図３に示す空箱ライン１１８から、図示しない移動手段によって行われる。すなわち、収容箱１４は、空箱ライン１１８から供給されて、収容箱搬入部Ｄ、収容箱搬入部Ｃ、第一投入部Ａ、第二投入部Ｂの順に移動させられていく。なお、少なくとも第一投入部Ａ及び第二投入部Ｂにおいては、収容箱１４の蓋部１５は開いている。   A large amount of fruits and vegetables 16 conveyed in the positive direction of the X-axis by the conveyor 20 are loaded into the storage box 14 in the first loading section A. At this time, the storage box 14 is tilted by tilting means (not shown). The storage box 14 in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are loaded in the first loading section A is moved to the second loading section B in the positive Y-axis direction by a moving means such as a pressing member (not shown). The storage box 14 that moves from the first input part A to the second input part B may be in a horizontal state or inclined. The empty storage box 14 is carried into the first input part A from the storage box carry-in part C shown in FIG. 2 by a moving means (not shown), and the empty storage box 14 is moved into the storage box carry-in part C. The carry-in is carried out from the storage box carry-in part D by a moving means (not shown), and the empty storage box 14 is carried into the storage box carry-in part D from the empty box line 118 shown in FIG. Is called. That is, the storage box 14 is supplied from the empty box line 118 and is moved in the order of the storage box carry-in part D, the storage box carry-in part C, the first input part A, and the second input part B. At least in the first charging part A and the second charging part B, the lid 15 of the storage box 14 is open.

第二投入部Ｂにおいては、図１に示すように、収容箱支持手段１２の載置面６０及び収容箱１４が傾動手段４２によって４５°に傾斜させられた状態で、第一投入部Ａから移動させられた収容箱１４に、コンベヤ１８から青果物１６が投入される。第二投入部Ｂにおいては、計量器１００により投入した青果物１６の重量を計量することにより、青果物１６が一定重量になるまで収容箱１４に投入される。   In the second charging section B, as shown in FIG. 1, the mounting surface 60 of the storage box support means 12 and the storage box 14 are inclined from the first charging section A by 45 degrees by the tilting means 42. The fruits and vegetables 16 are put into the moved storage box 14 from the conveyor 18. In the second input part B, the weight of the fruits and vegetables 16 input by the measuring instrument 100 is weighed, so that the fruits and vegetables 16 are input into the storage box 14 until the weight reaches a certain weight.

収容箱１４が、図１に示す寸法の小さい小箱である場合、シリンダ２６により可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２に接近させて中間案内部材３２に重ね合わせた状態で、青果物１６が収容箱１４の蓋部１５に投入される。なお、小箱とは、例えば青果物１６を５ｋｇまで箱詰めするためのダンボール箱である。可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２に接近させた状態であれば、コンベヤ１８から中間案内部材３２及び可動案内部材２４を介して青果物１６が収容箱１４に投入され、青果物１６が収容箱１４の外へ落下することはない。すなわち、収容箱１４が小箱である場合に、仮に可動案内部材２４が中間案内部材３２に重ね合わされていなければ、中間案内部材３２の案内方向先端部３６が収容箱１４の蓋部１５の開口部１７上方の外側に位置するため、青果物１６が中間案内部材３２から収容箱１４の蓋部１５の外へ落下するが、可動案内部材２４を中間案内部材３２に重ね合わせて青果物１６の案内面を延長することにより、可動案内部材２４の案内方向先端部３０が収容箱１４の蓋部１５の開口部１７上方の内側に位置するため、青果物１６が中間案内部材３２から蓋部１５の外へ落下するのを防止できる。なお、複数の小箱の収容箱１４に連続して青果物１６を投入する場合、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２に接近させた状態で維持しても、各収容箱１４へ投入する毎に可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２に接近させてもよい。   When the storage box 14 is a small box having a small size as shown in FIG. 1, the fruits and vegetables 16 are stored in the storage box 14 in a state where the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22 by the cylinder 26 and superimposed on the intermediate guide member 32. Is put into the lid portion 15. The small box is a cardboard box for packing up to 5 kg of fruits and vegetables 16, for example. If the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22, the fruits and vegetables 16 are put into the storage box 14 from the conveyor 18 through the intermediate guide members 32 and the movable guide members 24, and the fruits and vegetables 16 are placed outside the storage box 14. It will not fall into. That is, when the storage box 14 is a small box, if the movable guide member 24 is not overlapped with the intermediate guide member 32, the leading end 36 in the guide direction of the intermediate guide member 32 is the opening of the lid 15 of the storage box 14. Since the fruits and vegetables 16 fall from the intermediate guide member 32 to the outside of the lid portion 15 of the storage box 14 because they are located outside the upper portion 17, the movable guide member 24 is superimposed on the intermediate guide member 32 to guide the fruits and vegetables 16. Is extended so that the leading end 30 in the guide direction of the movable guide member 24 is positioned inside the opening 17 of the lid 15 of the storage box 14, so that the fruits and vegetables 16 are moved from the intermediate guide member 32 to the outside of the lid 15. Can prevent falling. In addition, when the fruits and vegetables 16 are continuously put into the plurality of small boxes, the movable guide member 24 can be moved each time it is put into each storage box 14 even if the movable guide member 24 is kept close to the carry-out portion 22. You may make the guide member 24 approach the carrying-out part 22.

一方、収容箱１４が図６に示す寸法の大きな大箱である場合、可動案内部材２４がコンベヤ１８の下方に位置するように、シリンダ２６により可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２から離隔させる。なお、大箱とは、例えば青果物１６を１０ｋｇまで箱詰めするためのダンボール箱である。収容箱１４が大箱である場合、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２から離隔しても、図６に示すように、中間案内部材３２の案内方向先端部３６が収容箱１４の蓋部１５の開口部１７上方の内側に位置するため、青果物１６が中間案内部材３２から収容箱１４の蓋部１５の外へ落下することなく、青果物１６が収容箱１４に投入される。収容箱１４が大箱である場合、可動案内部材２４がコンベヤ１８の下方に位置するため、収容箱１４が可動案内部材２４に干渉することはない。なお、複数の大箱の収容箱１４に連続して青果物１６を投入する場合、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２から離隔させた状態で維持するのが好ましい。   On the other hand, when the storage box 14 is a large box having a large size as shown in FIG. 6, the movable guide member 24 is separated from the carry-out portion 22 by the cylinder 26 so that the movable guide member 24 is positioned below the conveyor 18. The large box is a cardboard box for packing up to 10 kg of fruits and vegetables 16, for example. When the storage box 14 is a large box, even if the movable guide member 24 is separated from the carry-out portion 22, as shown in FIG. 6, the guide direction front end portion 36 of the intermediate guide member 32 is formed on the lid portion 15 of the storage box 14. Since the fruits and vegetables 16 are located inside the opening 17 and are not dropped from the intermediate guide member 32 to the outside of the lid portion 15 of the storage box 14, the fruits and vegetables 16 are put into the storage box 14. When the storage box 14 is a large box, since the movable guide member 24 is located below the conveyor 18, the storage box 14 does not interfere with the movable guide member 24. In addition, when the fruits and vegetables 16 are continuously put into the plurality of storage boxes 14, it is preferable to keep the movable guide member 24 separated from the carry-out portion 22.

第二投入部Ｂにおいて青果物１６が一定重量になるまで投入された収容箱（実箱）１４は、図３に示す実箱搬出部Ｅ及びＦへ移動させられた後、図１に示す実箱ライン１２０へ移転され、後工程の図示しない自動封函機へ搬送される。   The storage box (actual box) 14 in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are put into a constant weight in the second input part B is moved to the actual box unloading parts E and F shown in FIG. 3, and then the actual box shown in FIG. It is transferred to the line 120 and conveyed to an automatic unsealing machine (not shown) in the subsequent process.

このような物品投入機構１０及び物品投入設備４０によれば、収容箱１４が小箱である場合には可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２に接近させ、収容箱１４が大箱である場合には可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２から離隔することにより、収容箱１４の寸法の変化に対応して青果物１６を収容箱１４に投入することができる。また、可動案内部材２４の材質は、変形しない部材であるため、収容箱１４内の所望の位置へ青果物１６を投入することができ、青果物１６の投入作業を安定して行うことができる。   According to the article input mechanism 10 and the article input facility 40, when the storage box 14 is a small box, the movable guide member 24 is brought close to the carry-out portion 22, and when the storage box 14 is a large box. By separating the movable guide member 24 from the carry-out portion 22, the fruits and vegetables 16 can be put into the storage box 14 in response to changes in the dimensions of the storage box 14. Moreover, since the material of the movable guide member 24 is a member that does not deform, the fruits and vegetables 16 can be thrown into a desired position in the storage box 14, and the throwing operation of the fruits and vegetables 16 can be performed stably.

以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明はその他の態様でも実施できる。例えば、図７に示す物品投入機構１０であってもよい。図７に示す物品投入機構１０においては、中間案内部材３２の２個の側壁３５間の幅が案内方向先端部３６へいくに従って狭く構成されている。また、中間案内部材３２の２個の側壁３５が可動案内部材２４の案内方向先端部３０に向かって突出している。このため、図７（ｂ）のＸＹ面視における青果物１６の投入方向が主として中間案内部材３２によって規制され、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２へ接近させた場合及び離隔させた場合において、図７（ｂ）のＸＹ面視における青果物１６の投入方向が、略一定となる。すなわち、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２へ接近させることにより、可動案内部材２４を搬出部２２から離隔させた場合に対して図７（ｂ）のＸＹ面視における青果物１６の投入方向が変わるのを防止できる。   As mentioned above, although one Embodiment of this invention was described, this invention can be implemented also in another aspect.

Further, the two side walls 35 of the intermediate guide member 32 protrude toward the distal end portion 30 of the movable guide member 24 in the guide direction. For this reason, when the moving direction of the fruits and vegetables 16 in the XY plane view of FIG. 7B is mainly regulated by the intermediate guide member 32 and the movable guide member 24 is brought close to and separated from the carry-out portion 22, FIG. The direction in which the fruits and vegetables 16 are loaded in the XY plane view of (b) is substantially constant. That is, by bringing the movable guide member 24 closer to the carry-out portion 22, the loading direction of the fruits and vegetables 16 in the XY plane view of FIG. 7B is changed with respect to the case where the movable guide member 24 is separated from the carry-out portion 22. Can be prevented.
