分離していた。2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional pachinko ball lifting and polishing apparatus, for example, there is one disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-222179. That is, a lifting / polishing device is provided inside the pachinko island, the upper end of the lifting pipe of the lifting / polishing device projects upward from the upper part of the pachinko island, and is discharged from the upper end opening opened at the upper end of the lifting pipe. A mixture of a pachinko ball and a large amount of an abrasive is sent out from the upper end opening to a cage-like separating member extending obliquely downward. Thereby,
The abrasive material drops below the separating member and is separated from the pachinko balls, and the separated pachinko balls flow into a supply gutter and are conveyed to each pachinko machine. In this way, a large amount of abrasive was separated from the polished pachinko balls only by the separating member.

害されるおそれがあるという問題点があった。However, in such a conventional pachinko ball lifting and polishing apparatus as described above, in order to completely separate a large amount of abrasive material from a pachinko ball with only the separating member, the inclination angle of the separating member is set. Although it is necessary to increase the size and length of the separating member, it is not possible to increase the inclination angle and the total length of the separating member due to the space of the upper part of the island. There was a risk that they could not be separated. As a result, there is a problem in that the transport of the pachinko balls may be hindered if a slight amount of the polishing material enters the supply gutter or the like.

An object of the present invention is to provide a pachinko ball lifting / polishing device that can be used.

When the geared motor 45 is actuated and the spiral body 43 in the lifting pipe 42 rotates in the direction of the arrow, the mixture of the pachinko balls and the abrasive stored in the ball storage portion 41 is lifted, and the lifting pipe 42 moves. It is introduced into the lifting pipe 42 from the receiving port 42a on the lower end side. The mixture introduced into the pump pipe 42 is pushed by the subsequent mixture and rises in the pump pipe 42 because the rotating spiral body 43 lifts the subsequent mixture one after another.

な渦巻流を起こす。The mixture 43 is stirred by the spiral 43 between the pachinko balls and the abrasive, and the abrasive cleans and polishes the dirt adhering to the surface of the pachinko balls.
The mixture in 2 rises by the mixture pushing up one after another from the bottom, while the spiral of the rotating spiral body 43 tries to raise further around the periphery of the spiral body 43 and to lower further at the peripheral wall portion of the pipe due to gravity. Therefore, a small vertical swirl flow is generated while being stirred horizontally.

第一次的に分離される。Thus, the mixture in the pumping pipe 42 continues to rise while causing small horizontal and vertical swirls.
The mixture that has risen in the pumping pipe 42 is continuously provided along the circumferential direction of the upper portion of the pumping pipe 42 to form a plurality of vertical slit grooves 48, 48.
.., a part of the abrasive is transferred to the outside of the pumping pipe 42 from each vertical slit groove 48 through which only the granular abrasive can pass while being forcibly agitated to cause a small spiral in the horizontal and vertical directions. leak. In this way, a part of the abrasive is primarily separated from the mixture of the pachinko balls and the abrasive in the upper part of the pumping pipe 42.

By the time it is done, the pachinko balls are thoroughly cleaned. Then, when the remaining mixture of the abrasive and the pachinko balls that cannot pass through the vertical slit groove 48 reaches the ejection port 42b, it flows out from the ejection port 42b and flows into the separation member 47.

And flows into the lift mechanism 50 from the inclined lower end of the separating member 47. In this way, the separating member 47 separates and sorts the remaining abrasives secondarily, that is, finally completely from the polished pachinko balls.
The abrasive that has fallen into the abrasive circulation pipe 44 is again supplied to the sphere reservoir 41.
