In the sorting apparatus of the present invention, the supply conveyor and the selection conveyor are made to intersect with each other, and at this intersection, the tube rods sequentially conveyed by the supply conveyor at regular intervals are selected.
Multiple attachments arranged along the transport direction of another conveyor
Or not to be received by the sorting conveyor through the
It is a selection of good products and defective products . In addition,
Inspection of the quality of tube rods conveyed by the feeding conveyor
Is performed by inspection means, and these tube rods
Receiving position where you can receive and non-receiving that you cannot receive
Controlled movement of attachment to either pick-up position
By the control means that received the inspection result from the inspection means
Done. According to such a configuration, there is no restriction that the sorting operation of good products / defective products must be completed within the time required for one conveying pitch of the tube rod-shaped articles by the supply conveyor, and there is a sufficient time margin. Therefore, even if the processing speed becomes high, it is possible to stably perform the selection of the tube-like material without any trouble. The sorting conveyor conveys the attachment, which is controllably movable by the control means, between a receiving position capable of receiving the pipe-like material supplied from the supply conveyor and a non-receiving position not capable of receiving the same.
In the case of non-defective products, the attachments can be received while being held in the regular position (reception position), and only in the case of defective products, the attachments can be retracted from the regular position to the non-reception position. it makes it is passed <br/> allowed Rukoto without receiving the defective product. The defective causes conveyed to the end of Su Su remains feed conveyor with supply conveyor, it Re is eliminated downwardly around which the feed conveyor returns the process proceeds to step. Then, the attachment retracted to the non-receiving position may be returned to the regular position by one round on the sorting conveyor until the next crossing position is reached, and the attachment is retracted to the non-receiving position. The operation may be performed by retracting from any position during the return process of the sorting conveyor until the intersection position is reached. In short, according to the present invention, the selection of non-defective products and defective products is carried out by the operation of changing the position of the attachment. However, the operation of changing the position of the attachment is performed within the required time for one conveyor pitch of the pipe rod-shaped article by the supply conveyor. There is no restriction that it must be completed, there is a sufficient time margin, and the sorting operation can be made to follow stably no matter how high the processing speed is. In addition, for one tube rod,
Equipped with a pair of attachments to support from below,
Distance between a pair of attachments when in the receiving position
If the method is shorter than the total length of the tube rod,
Tube rods conveyed by a conveyor are
Supported from below by a pair of attachments
Be properly received in the
The distance between the pair of attachments is
If it is longer than the length,
The pipe-shaped material that has been conveyed is paired with the pair of
It will pass through each other.
According to this, a simple position change operation of the attachment
Only by making sure to carry out the above-mentioned effects or advantages
Can be enjoyed.

The device of the present invention is constructed as described above and operates as follows. The tube rods (3) are sequentially conveyed at a constant interval by the continuously driven supply conveyor (1) and inspected by the inspection means (4) on the way. The sorting conveyor (2) is continuously driven at the same speed as the supply conveyor (1), and in advance, the receiving position of the non-defective product (3a) and the non-receiving position of the defective product (3b) based on the inspection result of the inspection means (4). The attachments (2b), which have been respectively controlled and moved, are caused to travel to the intersection (7). As a result, the good product (3a) is received by the sorting conveyor (2) and conveyed to the next process conveyor (6), and the defective product (3b).
Will not be received. Therefore, the defective product (3b) is naturally dropped and eliminated from the terminal end side of the supply conveyor (1).
As a result, the selection of the tubular material (3) is continuously and accurately performed. The control means (5) does not operate the non-defective product (3a) but operates the defective product (3b), and the evacuation route of the attachment (2b) corresponding to the defective product (3b). After the switching operation to the side is completed, the returning operation is performed until the next attachment (2b) comes, and the returning operation may use a spring force.

Since there is no such restriction, it is possible to provide a tube rod-shaped object sorting apparatus that can stably follow a glass tube having a high processing speed at a high speed. In addition, the sorting conveyor is
To receive and transport only the items through the attachment
Quality products will be sent continuously to the next process.
The work can be performed smoothly without interruption. Moreover,
Receiving attachments that can receive tubular rods
And the non-receipt position where it cannot be picked up.
Due to the simple structure of moving it,
Since only the sorting conveyor can receive
For example, when using the suction force to sort good and bad products
Air supply including suction force generation source and piping for negative pressure distribution
Emission control circuit etc. are not required, and the device configuration becomes complicated and costly.
It is possible to avoid soaring prices .
