以下、本発明に係る分散供給装置の実施形態について図面を参照しながら説明する。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of a distributed supply apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(1)組合せ計量システムの全体構成
組合せ計量システムSは、物品Wの組合せ計量を行う組合せ計量機Mと、該組合せ計量機Mに物品Wを分散供給する分散供給装置1とから主に構成される。分散供給装置1の説明に先立ち、組合せ計量機Mについて簡単に説明する。
(1) Overall Configuration of Combination Weighing System The combination weighing system S is mainly composed of a combination weighing machine M that performs combination weighing of the articles W and a distributed supply device 1 that supplies and supplies the articles W to the combination weighing machines M in a distributed manner. The Prior to the description of the distributed supply apparatus 1, the combination weighing machine M will be briefly described.

図1に示すように、組合せ計量機Mは、主な構成として、プールホッパPH、計量ホッパWH、補助ホッパBH、集合コンベヤC、スクリューフィーダSF、集合排出シュートCHを備えている。ホッパPH、WH、BH及びスクリューフィーダSFは、いずれも複数かつ同数(6つの場合を図示)設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the combination weighing machine M includes a pool hopper PH, a weighing hopper WH, an auxiliary hopper BH, a collecting conveyor C, a screw feeder SF, and a collecting discharge chute CH as main components. A plurality of hoppers PH, WH, BH and screw feeders SF are provided in the same number (six cases are shown).

各スクリューフィーダSFの下方にはプールホッパPHが1個ずつ設けられており、各プールホッパPHの下方には計量ホッパWHが1個ずつ設けられており、各計量ホッパWHの下方には補助ホッパBHが1個ずつ設けられている。各ホッパPH、WH、BHには開閉可能なゲート(図示しない)が設けられており、該ゲートを開くことにより、ホッパPH、WH、BH内の物品Wは下方に排出される。各計量ホッパWHには、計量ホッパWH内の物品Wの質量を検出するためのロードセル(図示しない)が設けられている。   One pool hopper PH is provided below each screw feeder SF, one weighing hopper WH is provided below each pool hopper PH, and an auxiliary hopper is provided below each weighing hopper WH. One BH is provided. Each hopper PH, WH, BH is provided with an openable / closable gate (not shown). By opening the gate, the article W in the hopper PH, WH, BH is discharged downward. Each weighing hopper WH is provided with a load cell (not shown) for detecting the mass of the article W in the weighing hopper WH.

補助ホッパBHの下方には左右方向Xに設けられた無端状のベルトコンベヤからなる集合コンベヤCが1台設けられている。集合コンベヤCは、その左右方向Xの長さが、並べられた複数の補助ホッパBHの端から端までの距離よりも長くなるように設けられている。さらに、集合コンベヤCの下流には集合排出シュートCHが設けられている。   Below the auxiliary hopper BH, one collective conveyor C is provided which is an endless belt conveyor provided in the left-right direction X. The collective conveyor C is provided such that the length in the left-right direction X is longer than the distance from end to end of the plurality of auxiliary hoppers BH arranged. Further, a collective discharge chute CH is provided downstream of the collective conveyor C.

組合せ計量機MのスクリューフィーダSFに、計量を行う物品W、例えば煮物、佃煮、惣菜、漬物などの粘着性物品が供給されると、スクリューフィーダSFの駆動に基づいてプールホッパPHに物品Wを一旦貯留する。次に、プールホッパPHのゲートを開いて、物品WをプールホッパPHから計量ホッパWHへ移行する。各計量ホッパWHのロードセルによって物品Wの質量を計量した後、計量ホッパWHのゲートを開いて物品Wを計量ホッパWHから補助ホッパBHへ移行し、一時的に補助ホッパBHに計量済みの物品Wを貯留する。物品Wが移行して空になった計量ホッパWHに新たに物品Wを同様に供給して計量を行う。   When an article W to be weighed, for example, an adhesive article such as boiled food, boiled food, side dish, pickles, is supplied to the screw feeder SF of the combination weighing machine M, the article W is put into the pool hopper PH based on the driving of the screw feeder SF. Once stored. Next, the gate of the pool hopper PH is opened, and the article W is transferred from the pool hopper PH to the weighing hopper WH. After weighing the mass of the article W by the load cell of each weighing hopper WH, the gate of the weighing hopper WH is opened, the article W is transferred from the weighing hopper WH to the auxiliary hopper BH, and the article W that has been temporarily weighed in the auxiliary hopper BH. To store. The article W is newly supplied in the same manner to the weighing hopper WH which has become empty after the article W is transferred, and the weighing is performed.

次に、計量ホッパWHと補助ホッパBHに貯留された計量済みの物品Wの質量データに基づいて、合計の質量が目標設定値に最も近く、かつ下回らない物品Wの組合せを選び出す。選ばれた物品Wが入っている計量ホッパWHと補助ホッパBHのゲートのみを所定のタイミングで開いて、物品Wを集合コンベヤC上へ排出する。該集合コンベヤCは集合排出シュートCHに向かって物品Wを搬送し、集合排出シュートCH内に落下させる。該集合排出シュートCHは、所望の合計質量となった物品Wを下流にまとめて排出する。   Next, based on the mass data of the weighed articles W stored in the weighing hopper WH and the auxiliary hopper BH, the combination of the articles W whose total mass is closest to the target set value and not lower than the target set value is selected. Only the gates of the weighing hopper WH and the auxiliary hopper BH containing the selected article W are opened at a predetermined timing, and the article W is discharged onto the collective conveyor C. The collective conveyor C conveys the articles W toward the collective discharge chute CH and drops them into the collective discharge chute CH. The collective discharge chute CH collectively discharges the articles W having a desired total mass downstream.

なお、補助ホッパBHは、下流側で物品Wが詰まらないように時差排出を行ってもよい。また、組合せ計量機Mは、計量ホッパWHから必ず補助ホッパBHを介して集合コンベヤCに排出するタイプまたは計量ホッパWHから補助ホッパBHを介さずに集合コンベヤCに直接排出することもできるタイプのいずれでもよく、また、補助ホッパBH自体を持たないタイプであってもよい。さらに、スクリューフィーダSFは、必要に応じて適宜設ける部品であり、他の種類の供給フィーダに替えることもできる。   Note that the auxiliary hopper BH may discharge the time difference so that the article W is not clogged on the downstream side. The combination weighing machine M is of a type that always discharges from the weighing hopper WH to the collective conveyor C via the auxiliary hopper BH, or a type that can be discharged directly from the weighing hopper WH to the collective conveyor C without going through the auxiliary hopper BH. Any of them may be used, or the auxiliary hopper BH itself may not be used. Furthermore, the screw feeder SF is a component that is appropriately provided as necessary, and can be replaced with other types of supply feeders.

(2)分散供給装置の全体構成
図2に示すように、本発明に係る分散供給装置1は、主な構成として、投入部11、貯留部12、押出機構20、掻き出し機構30、駆動制御部90を備える。本実施例では、投入部11の下方に貯留部12が配置され、貯留部12の内部に押出機構20が設けられ、貯留部12の前方Yに掻き出し機構30が配置されている。
(2) Overall Configuration of Distributed Supply Device As shown in FIG. 2, the distributed supply device 1 according to the present invention includes, as main components, an input unit 11, a storage unit 12, an extrusion mechanism 20, a scraping mechanism 30, and a drive control unit. 90. In the present embodiment, the storage unit 12 is disposed below the charging unit 11, the pushing mechanism 20 is provided inside the storage unit 12, and the scraping mechanism 30 is disposed in front Y of the storage unit 12.

オペレータによって投入部11から投入された物品Wは、投入部11の下方にある貯留部12に一旦貯留される。次に、押出機構20によって貯留部12に貯留されている物品Wを前方Yへ押し出す。貯留部12から外部に押し出された物品Wを掻き出し機構30によってほぐしながら掻き出す。このとき、駆動制御部90によって押出機構20を駆動制御する。以下、分散供給装置1の各構成部材について詳細に説明する。   The article W thrown from the loading unit 11 by the operator is temporarily stored in the storage unit 12 below the loading unit 11. Next, the article W stored in the storage unit 12 is pushed forward Y by the pushing mechanism 20. The article W pushed out from the storage unit 12 is scraped out while being loosened by the scraping mechanism 30. At this time, the drive control unit 90 controls the drive of the extrusion mechanism 20. Hereinafter, each component of the dispersion | distribution supply apparatus 1 is demonstrated in detail.

(2−1)投入部
図2に示すように、分散供給装置1に物品Wを投入するための投入部11は、上下部が開口した筒状部材であり、開口の大きさが下方に向かって小さくなっている。投入部11の下部は、後述の貯留部12の物品Wを溜めるための空間に対応して開口している。
(2-1) Input Unit As shown in FIG. 2, the input unit 11 for supplying the articles W to the distributed supply device 1 is a cylindrical member having upper and lower parts opened, and the size of the opening is directed downward. It is getting smaller. The lower part of the insertion part 11 is opened corresponding to a space for storing articles W in the storage part 12 described later.

(2−2)貯留部
貯留部12は、上方及び前方Yが開放された箱型の部材であり、内部に物品Wを一時的に溜めるための空間を備えている。また、貯留部12は、図3に示すように、その前部(図3の右側)に前後方向(Y方向及びその逆方向)に延在する5枚の隔壁部13を備えている。これら隔壁部13は、互いに平行に左右方向Xに並んでおり、貯留部12内の物品Wを溜める空間は、これら隔壁部13によって左右方向Xに並び、同等の容積を持つ6つの部分区画a1〜a6に区画されている。
(2-2) Reservoir The reservoir 12 is a box-shaped member whose upper and front Y are opened, and includes a space for temporarily storing the article W therein. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the storage unit 12 includes five partition walls 13 extending in the front-rear direction (Y direction and the opposite direction) at the front part (right side in FIG. 3). These partition walls 13 are arranged in parallel in the left-right direction X, and the space for storing articles W in the storage section 12 is aligned in the left-right direction X by the partition walls 13 and has six partial sections a1 having the same volume. It is divided into ~ a6.

図2に示すように、各隔壁部13の前部は、その上端が前方Yに向かって徐々に高くなるように傾斜している。この傾斜によれば、投入された物品Wが隔壁部13の上端にまたがるように積載されても、後述する押出機構20によって押された物品Wは、徐々に高くなる隔壁部13によって左右の部分区画a1〜a6に振り分けられるため、隔壁部13の上端に物品Wが残存し難くすることができる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the front portion of each partition wall portion 13 is inclined so that the upper end thereof gradually increases toward the front Y. According to this inclination, even if the loaded article W is stacked so as to straddle the upper end of the partition wall portion 13, the article W pushed by the extrusion mechanism 20 described later is left and right by the partition wall portion 13 that gradually increases. Since it is distributed to the sections a <b> 1 to a <b> 6, the article W can be hardly left at the upper end of the partition wall portion 13.

また、図1または図3に示すように、貯留部12の開放された前部には、櫛歯40が貯留部12の左右方向Xの全長に亘って設けられており、図2に示すように、その先端が下方を向いている。この櫛歯40によれば、部分区画a1〜a6に入りきらない程大量に物品Wが投入された場合にも、後述する押出機構20によって物品Wを押し出す際に、部分区画a1〜a6に入りきらない物品Wが、櫛歯40によって前方Yへ移動するのを抑えられるため、貯留部12の前方Yから外部に急激にくずれ落ちるおそれがない。また、物品Wを押し出す際に、押出機構20と櫛歯40との間に挟まれた物品Wは、櫛歯40の間からわずかながら溢れ出ることができるため、この物品Wの挟み込みによって押出機構20の前方Yへの移動が所定の位置に達する前に停止してしまうのを防ぐことができる。なお、櫛歯40は、洗浄を容易にするため、分散供給装置1に対して脱着可能に設けられていることが望ましい。なお、櫛歯40は、平板状のゲートでも良い。さらに、物品Wの吐出量を調節できるように、貯留部12に対して上下方向に移動可能であっても良い。   Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 3, the comb tooth 40 is provided in the open front part of the storage part 12 over the full length of the left-right direction X of the storage part 12, and as shown in FIG. In addition, its tip faces downward. According to the comb teeth 40, even when the article W is introduced in a large amount that does not fit into the partial sections a1 to a6, the article W enters the partial sections a1 to a6 when the article W is pushed out by the extrusion mechanism 20 described later. Since the unfinished article W can be prevented from moving to the front Y by the comb teeth 40, there is no possibility that the storage part 12 suddenly falls outside from the front Y. Further, when the article W is pushed out, the article W sandwiched between the extrusion mechanism 20 and the comb teeth 40 can overflow slightly from between the comb teeth 40. It is possible to prevent the movement of 20 toward the front Y from stopping before reaching a predetermined position. The comb teeth 40 are desirably provided so as to be detachable from the dispersion supply device 1 in order to facilitate cleaning. The comb teeth 40 may be a flat gate. Furthermore, the storage unit 12 may be movable in the vertical direction so that the discharge amount of the article W can be adjusted.

(2−3)押出機構
図3に示すように、貯留部12の内部には、組合せ計量機MのプールホッパPHと同数(6つの場合を図示)の押出機構20が、各部分区画a1〜a6に対応して設けられている。各押出機構20は、図2に示すように、前後方向(矢印Y及びその逆方向)に延びる互いに平行に並んだ角棒状部材21と、各角棒状部材21を後方(矢印Yの逆方向)から前後方向に互いに独立して押圧可能に設けられた直動シリンダ22とをセットで備えている。
(2-3) Extrusion Mechanism As shown in FIG. 3, as many as the pool hopper PH of the combination weighing machine M (six cases are illustrated) are provided in the storage unit 12. It is provided corresponding to a6. As shown in FIG. 2, each push-out mechanism 20 has a rectangular bar-like member 21 extending in the front-rear direction (arrow Y and its reverse direction) and arranged in parallel with each other, and each square bar-like member 21 behind (in the reverse direction of arrow Y). And a linear motion cylinder 22 provided so as to be able to be pressed independently from each other in the front-rear direction.

角棒状部材21は、前後方向に垂直な断面の形状が正方形または矩形である棒状部材であり、この断面は、部分区画a1〜a6の内部を前後方向に往復動可能に、部分区画a1〜a6の横断面よりも若干小さく形成されている。また、角棒状部材21の前端部と上部には面が張られていると共に、その後部には、直動シリンダ22のストロークを短くした際に、直動シリンダ22の前部が入り込むのを許容する穴部21aが設けられている。この穴部21aを設けたことで、押出機構20の前後方向の全長を短くすることができる。   The square bar-shaped member 21 is a bar-shaped member having a square or rectangular cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the front-rear direction, and this cross-section is capable of reciprocating in the front-rear direction inside the partial sections a1-a6. It is formed slightly smaller than the cross section. Further, the front end portion and the upper portion of the square bar-shaped member 21 are stretched, and the rear portion allows the front portion of the direct acting cylinder 22 to enter when the stroke of the direct acting cylinder 22 is shortened. A hole 21a is provided. By providing the hole 21a, the entire length of the extrusion mechanism 20 in the front-rear direction can be shortened.

直動シリンダ22は、その進退するロッドの先端が前方Yにある角棒状部材21に固定されており、ロッドの進退と共に角棒状部材21が前後方向に往復動する。なお、直動シリンダ22として、例えば、エアシリンダ、油圧シリンダ、電動シリンダ等を用いることができる。   The linear cylinder 22 is fixed to a square bar-like member 21 whose forward and backward rod ends are forward Y. The square bar-like member 21 reciprocates in the front-rear direction as the rod advances and retreats. For example, an air cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder, or the like can be used as the direct acting cylinder 22.

直動シリンダ22が伸長することで角棒状部材21は前方Yに移動し、対応する部分区画a1〜a6に貯留された物品Wが貯留部12の前方Yから外部に押し出される。   When the linear cylinder 22 extends, the rectangular bar-shaped member 21 moves to the front Y, and the article W stored in the corresponding partial sections a1 to a6 is pushed out from the front Y of the storage unit 12 to the outside.

なお、角棒状部材21は、投入部11から投入された物品Wを貯留部12へスムーズに案内するため、図2に示すように、先端面の上端部にテーパ面を設けてもよい。   In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the square bar-shaped member 21 may provide a taper surface at the upper end portion of the front end surface in order to smoothly guide the article W input from the input unit 11 to the storage unit 12.

(2−4)掻き出し機構
掻き出し機構30は、針付回動部材31、回転モータ32、カップリング33、フレーム34から主に構成されている。左右方向Xに延在する針付回動部材31の両端部は、分散供給装置1の左右両端に設けられたフレーム34によって回転自在に支持されている。針付回動部材31の一端は、カップリング33によって回転モータ32の回転軸に連結されている。
(2-4) Scraping Mechanism The scraping mechanism 30 is mainly configured by a needle-equipped rotating member 31, a rotary motor 32, a coupling 33, and a frame 34. Both ends of the needle-equipped rotating member 31 extending in the left-right direction X are rotatably supported by frames 34 provided at the left and right ends of the dispersion supply device 1. One end of the needle-equipped rotating member 31 is connected to the rotating shaft of the rotating motor 32 by a coupling 33.

針付回動部材31は、左右方向Xに延在し、軸線が回転中心となる回動軸部31aと、回動軸部31aからその軸線に対して直交方向に放射線状に延びた複数の針状部材31b(四方に延びる場合を図示)とから主に構成されている。針状部材31bは、回動軸部31aのうち貯留部12と対向する全範囲に所定間隔ごとに設けられている。   The rotation member 31 with a needle extends in the left-right direction X, and has a rotation shaft portion 31a whose axis is the center of rotation, and a plurality of radial members extending radially from the rotation shaft portion 31a to the axis. It is mainly comprised from the acicular member 31b (the case where it extends in four directions is shown). The needle-like member 31b is provided at predetermined intervals in the entire range of the rotating shaft portion 31a facing the storage portion 12.

回転モータ32を回転させると、カップリング33を介して針付回動部材31が回転する。この回転によって、針付回動部材31の針状部材31bは、貯留部12から押出機構20によって外部に押し出された物品Wの一部をその先端で引っ掛けるため、互いにからまったり、くっついたりした物品Wをほぐしながら掻き出すことができる。なお、針付回動部材31の回転方向は、図2に示すように、物品Wを引っ掛き上げる方向(図2では反時計回り)でも良いし、物品Wを引っ掛けて落とす方向(図2では時計回り)でも良い。針付回動部材31の回転速度と共にその回転方向は、物品Wに応じて適宜設定可能である。   When the rotation motor 32 is rotated, the needle rotation member 31 is rotated via the coupling 33. By this rotation, the needle-like member 31b of the rotating member 31 with the needle hooks a part of the article W pushed out from the storage unit 12 by the push-out mechanism 20 at its tip, so that the articles tangled or stuck to each other. It can be scraped while loosening W. As shown in FIG. 2, the rotation direction of the rotation member 31 with the needle may be a direction in which the article W is hooked (counterclockwise in FIG. 2), or a direction in which the article W is hooked and dropped (FIG. 2). (Clockwise). The rotation direction of the rotation member 31 with the needle can be set as appropriate according to the article W.

なお、掻き出し機構30には、図2に示すように、回動する針付回動部材31の前方と側方を覆う縦壁部50aと、針付回動部材31の下方に設けられ、下に向かって先細りの筒状部50bとを備えたカバー50を設けられている。このカバー50によれば、針付回動部材31によってほぐしながら掻き出された物品Wは、カバー50の縦壁部50aや筒状部50bの内壁に沿って落下するため、掻き出された物品Wを全て確実に下方にあるプールホッパPHに供給できる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the scraping mechanism 30 is provided with a vertical wall portion 50 a that covers the front and side of the rotating needle-equipped rotating member 31, and a lower portion of the needle-equipped rotating member 31. A cover 50 having a tapered cylindrical portion 50b is provided. According to this cover 50, the article W scraped off while being loosened by the needle-equipped rotating member 31 falls along the vertical wall portion 50a of the cover 50 and the inner wall of the cylindrical portion 50b. All W can be reliably supplied to the pool hopper PH located below.

(2−5)駆動制御手段
駆動制御部90は、CPU等の演算処理部と、RAM、ROM等の記憶部と、キーボード等の操作部とを備える。演算処理部は、例えば、記憶部に記憶されたプログラムや操作部から操作者によって入力された各種設定情報を読み出したり、必要に応じて、適用される組み合わせ計量機、各種センサ等からの入力信号を利用することができる。
(2-5) Drive Control Unit The drive control unit 90 includes an arithmetic processing unit such as a CPU, a storage unit such as a RAM and a ROM, and an operation unit such as a keyboard. The arithmetic processing unit reads, for example, various setting information input by the operator from a program stored in the storage unit or the operation unit, or input signals from an applied combination weighing machine, various sensors, etc. as necessary. Can be used.

この駆動制御部90によって、各押出機構20の直動シリンダ22のロッドを進退させる際に、該ロッドの速度や位置を駆動制御することで、各押出機構20による物品Wの押出速度や押出量を個別に制御できる。   When the rod of the linear cylinder 22 of each push-out mechanism 20 is advanced and retracted by the drive control unit 90, the speed and position of the rod are driven and controlled, whereby the push-out speed and the push-out amount of the article W by each push-out mechanism 20 are controlled. Can be controlled individually.

(3)動作
分散供給装置1の動作について、図4を参照しながら説明する。
(3) Operation The operation of the distributed supply device 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

まず、投入部11から投入された物品Wは、下方にある貯留部12に溜められる。この際に、各押出機構20は、貯留部12にできるだけ多くの物品Wを溜めるため、駆動制御部90によって直動シリンダ22を制御して、図4(a)に示すように、角棒状部材21を最も後方の位置に配置する。   First, the article W thrown from the throwing part 11 is stored in the storage part 12 below. At this time, each push-out mechanism 20 controls the linear motion cylinder 22 by the drive control unit 90 in order to store as many articles W as possible in the storage unit 12, and as shown in FIG. 21 is arranged at the rearmost position.

次に、各直動シリンダ22を個別に制御して、図4(b)に示すように、角棒状部材21を前方Yに移動させて、貯留部12のうちの対応する部分区画a1〜a6から物品Wを外部に押し出しながら、針付回動部材31を回転(図4で反時計回り)させることで、貯留部12から押し出された物品Wを針付回動部材31によってほぐしながら掻き出してプールホッパPHに供給する。   Next, each linear motion cylinder 22 is individually controlled to move the square bar-shaped member 21 forward Y as shown in FIG. 4B, and corresponding partial sections a <b> 1 to a <b> 6 of the storage unit 12. By rotating the rotating member 31 with the needle while rotating the article W from the outside (counterclockwise in FIG. 4), the article W pushed out from the storage unit 12 is scraped out while being loosened by the rotating member 31 with the needle. Supply to the pool hopper PH.

次に、図4(c)に示すように、各角棒状部材21が所定位置まで移動した際に、直動シリンダ22を制御して、角棒状部材21の移動を一旦停止して、投入部11から新たな物品Wを投入する(図4の白抜き矢印参照)。このとき、新たに追加投入された物品Wは、その多くが各角棒状部材21の上面に堆積する。したがって、各角棒状部材21で押し出している物品Wには、追加投入された物品Wの荷重がかかり難いため、追加投入された物品Wの影響で、押し出している物品Wが急激に貯留部12の外部へ押し出されるおそれがない。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), when each square bar-shaped member 21 moves to a predetermined position, the linear cylinder 22 is controlled to stop the movement of the square bar-shaped member 21 once, A new article W is loaded from 11 (see the white arrow in FIG. 4). At this time, most of the newly added articles W are deposited on the upper surface of each square bar member 21. Therefore, since the load of the additionally loaded article W is difficult to be applied to the articles W pushed out by the respective square bar-shaped members 21, the pushed out articles W are suddenly stored in the storage section 12 due to the influence of the added articles W. There is no risk of being pushed out of the room.

次に、図4(d)に示すように、直動シリンダ22を制御して、各角棒状部材21を最も後方の位置まで移動させると、追加投入された物品Wは貯留部12内に落下する。その後は、図4(a)からの動作を繰り返す。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), when the linear motion cylinder 22 is controlled to move each square bar-like member 21 to the rearmost position, the additionally charged article W falls into the storage unit 12. To do. Thereafter, the operation from FIG. 4A is repeated.

(4)分散供給装置の特徴
本分散供給装置1では、物品Wが粘着性物品であっても、押出機構20によって貯留部12から外部に押し出された物品Wを、掻き出し機構30によってほぐしながら掻き出すため、プールホッパPHに物品Wが塊のままで供給されること、プールホッパPHの上方で滞留して落下しなくなることもなく、組合せ計量機Mの複数のプールホッパPHに安定して分散供給できる。
(4) Features of Dispersive Supply Device In the present distributed supply device 1, even if the article W is an adhesive article, the article W pushed out from the storage unit 12 by the extrusion mechanism 20 is scraped out while being loosened by the scraping mechanism 30. Therefore, the article W is supplied to the pool hopper PH as a lump, stays above the pool hopper PH and does not fall and stably supplies the plurality of pool hoppers PH of the combination weighing machine M. it can.

また、本分散供給装置1では、複数の押出機構20は、駆動制御部90で所定のプールホッパPHに対してのみ物品Wを直動シリンダ22によって押し出して供給することができるため、組合せ計量機Mの各プールホッパPHへ供給する物品Wの質量を所定の範囲内になるように調整することができる。   Moreover, in this dispersion | distribution supply apparatus 1, since the several extrusion mechanism 20 can extrude and supply the articles | goods W with the linear cylinder 22 only with respect to the predetermined | prescribed pool hopper PH by the drive control part 90, it is a combination weighing machine. It is possible to adjust the mass of the article W supplied to each of the M pool hoppers PH to be within a predetermined range.

さらに、本分散供給装置1では、隔壁部13によって区画された複数の部分区画a1〜a6にそれぞれ溜められた物品Wを各押出機構20によって押し出すため、ある押出機構20によって対応する部分区画a1〜a6に溜められた物品Wを押し出す際に、これに隣接する部分区画a1〜a6の物品Wを押し出してしまうことがなく、より確実に各部分区画a1〜a6に溜められた物品Wを対応するプールホッパPHへ供給できる。   Furthermore, in this dispersion | distribution supply apparatus 1, in order to extrude with each extrusion mechanism 20 the articles | goods W each accumulate | stored in the some partial divisions a1-a6 divided by the partition part 13, the corresponding partial divisions a1- When the article W stored in a6 is pushed out, the articles W in the partial sections a1 to a6 adjacent to the article W are not pushed out, and the articles W stored in the partial sections a1 to a6 are more reliably handled. Can be supplied to the pool hopper PH.

(5)変形例
本実施形態における分散供給装置1は、先に説明したものに限定されない。例えば、針付回動部材31を構成する複数の針状部材31bは、図6に示すように、回動軸部31aの軸線に対して直交する一方向のみに回動軸部31aから延在し、回動軸部31aのうち貯留部12に対向する全範囲に亘って、回動軸部31aの軸線方向に沿って所定間隔毎に設けられた構造にしてもよい。
(5) Modified Example The distributed supply device 1 in the present embodiment is not limited to the one described above. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the plurality of needle-like members 31b constituting the needle-equipped rotation member 31 extends from the rotation shaft portion 31a only in one direction orthogonal to the axis of the rotation shaft portion 31a. And you may make it the structure provided for every predetermined interval along the axial direction of the rotating shaft part 31a over the whole range which opposes the storage part 12 among the rotating shaft parts 31a.

この構造の場合、図5に示すように、回転モータ32の回転方向を繰り返し切り替えて、カップリング33を介して回転モータ32と連結された針付回動部材31の針状部材31bを、R方向に所定の角度範囲(図5では、水平から45度程度まで)で揺動させる。   In the case of this structure, as shown in FIG. 5, the rotation direction of the rotation motor 32 is repeatedly switched, and the needle-like member 31 b of the rotation member 31 with the needle connected to the rotation motor 32 via the coupling 33 is The direction is swung in a predetermined angle range (in FIG. 5, from about 45 degrees from the horizontal).

この針状部材31bの揺動によれば、針付回動部材31の回動する角度範囲が、針付回動部材31を一方向へ回転させる先の実施形態に比べて狭くなるため、掻き出し機構30をより小型にできる。したがって、分散供給装置1は、全体として見て省スペース化される。   According to the swinging of the needle-shaped member 31b, the angular range of rotation of the needle-equipped rotating member 31 is narrower than that of the previous embodiment in which the needle-equipped rotating member 31 is rotated in one direction. The mechanism 30 can be made smaller. Accordingly, the distributed supply device 1 is space-saving as a whole.

また、この変形例には、針付回動部材31と該針付回動部材31の下方にある複数のプールホッパPHとの間には、透過光センサ60が各々設けられている。図5に示すように、透過光センサ60は、投光部60a及び受光部60bから構成されており、物品Wが落下する際に通る空間の前方(Y方向)と後方(Y方向の逆方向)にそれぞれ投光部60aと受光部60bが配置されている。   In this modified example, a transmitted light sensor 60 is provided between the pivot member 31 with the needle and the plurality of pool hoppers PH below the pivot member 31 with the needle. As shown in FIG. 5, the transmitted light sensor 60 includes a light projecting unit 60a and a light receiving unit 60b, and the front (Y direction) and the rear (reverse direction of the Y direction) of the space through which the article W falls. ) Are respectively provided with a light projecting unit 60a and a light receiving unit 60b.

この透過光センサ60によれば、物品Wが落下する際に、投光部60aから受光部60bに入射される光がこの物品Wによって遮られるため、受光部60bでの受光量を計測することで、各プールホッパPHに落下する物品Wの落下量を推定することができる。したがって、複数の透過光センサ60の信号を駆動制御部90に入力して、この入力信号から推定された物品Wの落下量に応じて複数の押出機構20を個別に駆動制御することで、各プールホッパPHに落下する物品Wの落下量をフィードバック制御することができる。   According to the transmitted light sensor 60, when the article W falls, the light incident on the light receiving unit 60b from the light projecting unit 60a is blocked by the article W, so that the amount of light received by the light receiving unit 60b is measured. Thus, it is possible to estimate the fall amount of the article W falling on each pool hopper PH. Therefore, by inputting the signals of the plurality of transmitted light sensors 60 to the drive control unit 90 and individually driving and controlling the plurality of push-out mechanisms 20 according to the amount of fall of the article W estimated from this input signal, The amount of fall of the article W falling on the pool hopper PH can be feedback controlled.

なお、針付回動部材31の回動する角度範囲は、針状部材31bが貯留部12の外部に押し出された物品Wを掻き出せる程度に設定されていればよく、針状部材31bを上方に向くまで回動させずに、針付回動部材31の回動する角度範囲をできるだけ狭くしてもよい。これによれば、針状部材31bによって掻き出された物品Wは回動軸部31aの上方を通過しないため、回動軸部31a上に物品Wが残存してしまうおそれがない。   It should be noted that the rotation angle range of the needle-equipped rotation member 31 is set to such an extent that the needle-shaped member 31b can scrape the article W pushed out of the storage portion 12, and the needle-shaped member 31b is moved upward. Instead of rotating until it faces, the angular range in which the needle-equipped rotating member 31 rotates may be made as narrow as possible. According to this, since the article W scraped out by the needle-like member 31b does not pass above the rotating shaft portion 31a, there is no possibility that the article W remains on the rotating shaft portion 31a.

また、回転モータ32によって針状部材31bを所定の角度範囲で揺動させるため、一方向への回転運動を正転逆転を繰り返す回動運動に変換できる公知のリンク機構を介して、回転モータ32と針付回動部材31とを連結して、回転モータ32を単に一方向に回転させてもよい。   Further, since the needle-like member 31b is swung within a predetermined angle range by the rotation motor 32, the rotation motor 32 is connected via a known link mechanism that can convert the rotation motion in one direction into the rotation motion that repeats forward and reverse rotation. The rotating motor 32 may be simply rotated in one direction by connecting the rotating member 31 with the needle.

さらに、貯留部12から押し出された物品Wをほぐしながら掻き出す部材として、図7に示すように、針状部材31bの代わりに板状部材131bが回動軸部31aに設けられた板付回動部材131を用いてもよい。また、回動部材31の回動軸部31a自体を、上下方向Z、回動軸部31aの軸方向と平行な左右方向X、あるいは、上下、左右または回動を適宜組み合わせた方向に動かしてもよい。   Furthermore, as a member that scrapes out the article W pushed out from the storage unit 12 as shown in FIG. 7, a plate-like turning member in which a plate-like member 131b is provided on the turning shaft portion 31a instead of the needle-like member 31b as shown in FIG. 131 may be used. Further, the rotation shaft portion 31a itself of the rotation member 31 is moved in the vertical direction Z, the horizontal direction X parallel to the axial direction of the rotation shaft portion 31a, or the direction in which the vertical, horizontal, or rotation is appropriately combined. Also good.

なお、前述の一実施形態及びその変形例では、複数の押出機構20に対して共通の掻き出し機構30を用いたが、各押出機構20に掻き出し機構30を個別に設けてもよい。これによれば、各掻き出し機構30の回転速度や回転タイミングを個別に制御することで、各部分区画a1〜a6から押し出された物品Wを掻き出す量やタイミングを調整できる。   In the above-described embodiment and the modification thereof, the common scraping mechanism 30 is used for the plurality of push-out mechanisms 20, but the push-out mechanisms 30 may be individually provided in the respective push-out mechanisms 20. According to this, the amount and timing at which the articles W pushed out from the respective partial sections a1 to a6 are scraped can be adjusted by individually controlling the rotation speed and the rotation timing of each scraping mechanism 30.

本発明は例示された実施形態や変形例に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲において、種々の改良及び設計上の変更が可能であることは言うまでもない。   The present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments and modifications, and it goes without saying that various improvements and design changes are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

以上のように、本発明である組合せ計量システムの分散供給装置によれば、物品をほぐしながらホッパに掻き出すため、粘着性物品であっても、ホッパに物品が塊のままで供給されること、ホッパの上方で滞留して落下しなくなることもなく、組合せ計量機の複数のホッパに安定して分散供給できる。したがって、この種の組合せ計量システムの製造産業分野において好適に利用される可能性がある。   As described above, according to the distributed supply device of the combination weighing system according to the present invention, the article is scraped out to the hopper while loosening the article. It can be stably distributed and supplied to a plurality of hoppers of the combination weighing machine without staying above the hopper and not falling. Therefore, there is a possibility of being suitably used in the manufacturing industry field of this type of combination weighing system.
