ある。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION As is well known, beverages such as juice and beer are often sold in cans such as aluminum cans (hereinafter abbreviated as aluminum cans) and iron cans. The amount of will be enormous. It is being reused because a huge amount of empty cans can cause pollution, but in order to reuse them, empty cans are collected, sorted, and transported to a steel mill or smelter. There must be. However, since the empty can is a cylindrical body, it is bulky, and the efficiency of collecting and transporting the empty can is not good as it is. Therefore, an empty can compressor has been proposed in which empty cans are compressed and crushed to facilitate packing and transportation. There are various types of empty can compressors, a large-capacity can compressor provided with a hopper type inlet, a small empty can compressor configured to compress, for example, each empty can by electric power, and a lever is depressed by a foot. There is a compressor having a simple structure configured to compress.

採用して自動的に選別する方法が取られている。When the empty cans are reused, it is necessary to select the empty cans according to their materials. However, the method in which empty cans after use are put in individual storage boxes by the customer is not accurate enough for selection, and it is inevitable that both aluminum cans and steel cans are mixed. A method is adopted in which an empty can compressor, which is a processor for empty cans, and a sorter are integrated to automatically sort.

た。An example of a conventional sorting machine will be described below. For example, a magnet is arranged below a plate made of a tilted non-magnetic material, and an already compressed empty can is supplied onto this plate. Then, the aluminum can that is not magnetically attached to this plate falls along this inclined surface, and the steel can that is magnetically attached to the plate rotates this plate in the direction opposite to the side where the magnet is arranged and tilts appropriately. By doing so, it was sorted into a storage area other than the aluminum can.

た空き缶圧縮装置を提供することにある。If the conventional sorting machine has a structure in which an empty can or the like is dropped onto an inclined plate and magnetically adheres to it as described above, it is attached to a steel can already magnetized. The steel can supplied later may not be accurately captured and may drop, and the steel can may drop and be stored in the storage part of the aluminum can. That is, if the conventional structure does not have good sorting accuracy and the plate rotates, the plate must be made larger as a large number of empty cans are processed at one time. In addition, there is a problem that the moving space is required and it is difficult to install the device in a small device. Also,
The basic structure of a conventional empty can compressor is such that an empty can is dropped between a fixed plate and a rotatably provided compression member, and the compressed can is pressed against the fixed plate for compression.
In this type of structure, when the empty cans are compressed in a state where they are aligned in the vertical direction, the empty cans are expanded and deformed by the compression, so that the fixed cans and the compression members may be stretched and may not fall. In such a case, it is necessary to remove the compressed can, and this work is troublesome. further,
Since contents such as soft drinks remain in the empty cans described above, when the empty cans are sorted by gluing or the like after being compressed, if the sorting means is dirty or liquid is attached, the magnetic force is There is a problem that stickiness occurs due to another stickiness, or misselection occurs due to a decrease in magnetic force. An object of the present invention is to provide a sorting method that can reliably sort empty cans, and an empty can compressing device that is configured to smoothly perform reliable compression of empty cans.

る。The object of the present invention is to rotate an rotator having a magnet fixed on the outer circumference or in the vicinity of the outer circumference in the transport path of the empty can or in the vicinity of the transport path, and to remove the empty can magnetically attached by the magnet. After holding and moving on the outer periphery of the rotating body, the peeling member provided along the outer periphery of the rotating body moves to peel off the empty can from the rotating body, and at the same time, the surface of the peeling member or the rotating body. This is achieved by a method for selecting empty cans, in which the surface of the rotating body is cleaned by a member that is slidably contacted with. The object according to the present invention is configured such that the empty can received in the empty can receiving section is dropped between the press fixing member and the press movable member, and the press movable member is driven to compress the empty can. In the empty can compressing device, the compressed cans are compressed by providing a rotating body provided with a magnet on the outer periphery in the conveying path and a peeling member for peeling off the empty cans adsorbed on the outer periphery of the rotating body. The present invention is achieved by an empty can compressing device, which is provided with a device for selecting, among empty cans, those that are adsorbed by the rotating body and those that are not adsorbed by the rotating body. The object according to the present invention is to provide an empty can compressing device having, at both ends of the press-fixing member, a scooping portion that receives a spreading deformation when the empty can is compressed, and the empty can at one end of the press movable member.

る。In other words, magnetic poles are provided at predetermined intervals around the outer periphery of the rotating body, and among empty cans that are compressed and moved and conveyed, empty cans such as steel cans are adsorbed by the rotating body and non-containers such as aluminum cans are absorbed. Empty cans made of magnetic material are sorted without being adsorbed. In this way, since the empty cans can be attracted and moved while the rotating body rotates, the empty cans supplied to this rotating body do not overlap with the empty cans supplied later, and reliable suction can be performed. It enables accurate selection. Further, since the dug portion is formed in the press portion, when the empty cans supplied so as to be lined up in the lateral direction of the press portion are pressed, a part of the crushed can is received in the dug portion, The pressed can can fall freely without being caught by the pressed part. In addition, a swing bar that comes into contact with a part of the empty cans received in the empty can receiving section allows vibration to be constantly applied to the empty cans in the empty can receiving section. Mari can be effectively avoided. Since it is possible to perform the sorting work while always cleaning the rotating body, it is possible to avoid the sticking due to the stickiness of the contents of the can other than the magnetic force, or the decrease in the magnetic force due to the thickened deposit. it can.

Note that FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing the basic configuration of the sorting machine according to the present invention. Although the present embodiment is applied to the selection of empty cans, the objects to be selected are not limited to empty cans, and can be widely applied to the selection of articles based on magnetic materials and non-magnetic materials. Sorter 1
The structure is roughly divided into a rotating drum 3 in which magnetic poles 2 magnetized as N poles and S poles are alternately arranged at predetermined intervals on the outer periphery, and articles magnetically attracted to the outer periphery of the rotating drum 3, such as steel cans, are scraped. It is composed of a peeling plate 4 for dropping.
This embodiment is an example of application to empty can sorting, and the conveyor belt 5
As a non-sorted article 6, the aluminum can 6a and the steel can 6
b is conveyed in the direction of arrow A. The rotary drum 3 is provided so as to traverse the upper part of the conveyor belt 5 and can rotate in the direction of arrow B at a predetermined interval with respect to the conveyor surface. It should be noted that the aluminum can and the steel can may be compressed or not, but in the present embodiment, it is assumed that they are conveyed in a compressed state.

４の位置まで回転した段階で、剥離プレート４により回
転ドラム３の外周囲からそぎ落とされる。When the aluminum can 6a or the steel can 6b is conveyed by the conveyor belt 5 to the position where the rotary drum 3 is installed, since the aluminum can 6a is a non-magnetic material, it is not sensitive to the magnetism generated from the magnetic pole 2 and remains as it is. Pass in the direction of arrow A.
On the other hand, since the steel can 6b is a magnetic substance, it is attracted to the outer periphery of the rotary drum 3 by the magnetism generated from the magnetic pole 2. Then, when the rotating drum 3 rotates to the position of the peeling plate 4, the peeling plate 4 cuts off the outer periphery of the rotating drum 3.

なことはない。Next, a series of operations for compressing, storing, and storing the empty can 6 will be described. When the empty can 6 is inserted through the opening 22, the empty can receiving section 12 rolls down. However, when the press movable member 33 is stopped at the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2, since the drop port 23 is closed by the guide plate 36, the inserted empty can 6 does not drop into the drop port 23, and the empty can It seems that heaps are piled up in the receiving part 12. When the press movable member 33 is stopped in an open state as shown by an imaginary line in FIG. 2, a certain number of empty cans 6 are opened depending on the degree of opening thereof, and the press fixing member 31 and the press movable member 33.
The base of the press movable member 33 is the shaft 3

The swing bar 37 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 was provided. Although one swing bar 37 is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the empty can receiving portion 12 is actually provided on both sides of the press movable member 33.
It is provided along the side surface of. Press movable member 3
When 1 moves as described above, the rocking rod 37 also moves integrally and scrapes the empty cans 6 stacked in the empty can receiving section 12. As a result, the empty can 6 is displaced like swinging, and if the empty can 6 is in the refilled state, the refilled can is easily removed and rolls easily, and the roll can 6 smoothly rolls down.

る。When the motor 34 is continuously driven, the press movable member 33 moves maximally in the direction of the arrow b and then moves back in the direction of the arrow a to compress the empty can 6 into the press fixing member 31, so to speak, to crush it. Then, the press movable member 33 falls toward the sorting machine 14 in response to the movement of the press movable member 33 in the direction of the arrow b. At this time, a remarkable action as described below is performed. That is, when the press fixing member 31 is viewed from the top, the cutout portions 31a are formed at both ends as shown in FIG. When the empty cans 6 are compressed, the area expands due to crushing, and particularly in the configuration in which a large number of empty cans 6 are simultaneously compressed as in this embodiment, the compressed empty cans 6 may stick together, and the expanding shape of the empty cans 6 is unimaginable. It transforms randomly. For this reason, the shape in which the cutout portion 31a is not formed, that is, the conventional one may stick to the corner portion of the press fixing member 31. However, the scooping part 31
By forming a, the empty can 6 spreads in the cutout portion 31 as shown in the drawing, and the sticking can be prevented. Then, the compressed empty can 6 is surely dropped regardless of whether it is the aluminum can 6a or the steel can 6b.

If the width W is too large, a portion that is not completely compressed remains, and if it is too small, the same problem as in the past occurs. Therefore, it is set as described above in consideration of the amount and material of the empty can 6 to be compressed. As described above, the cutout portion 31a has an extremely important action, and by forming the cutout portion 31a, the compression and the drop can be surely performed regardless of the number of empty cans 6 to be compressed. .

ール収納箱５２に選別して収納される。The compressed empty can 6 drops to the sorting section 14 in a state where the aluminum can 6a and the steel can 6b are mixed.
This fall is a natural fall, but is, so to speak, a conveyance to the rotary drum 41. Compressed aluminum can 6a and steel can 6
Although b falls on the rotating drum 41 that is rotating, since the rotating drum 41 is rotating, it comes in contact with the outer periphery of the rotating drum 41 in a state where the position is gradually displaced. Therefore,
The steel can 6b is securely magnetically held on the outer periphery of the rotary drum 41. Further, since the surface of the rotary drum 41 is constantly cleaned by the wire roller 44, there is no sticking due to stickiness due to the contents of the can other than the magnetic force, or there is no decrease in magnetic force due to the thickened deposit. , Can always make accurate selections. By the way, the magnetic poles 42 are alternately arranged so that when the steel can 6b is suspended between the S pole and the N pole, a magnetic path is formed from the S pole to the N pole, and the holding force is increased. Because it improves. Since the aluminum can 6a is not adsorbed on the rotary drum 41, it falls into the aluminum storage box 51 as it is. On the other hand, steel can 6
Since b is attracted to the outer periphery of the rotary drum 41, it moves to the position of the peeling plate 43 as the rotary drum 41 rotates. Since the peeling plate 43 is fixed at a position right above the steel storage box 52, the peeling plate 4
The steel can 6b stripped off by 3 is dropped and stored in the steel storage box 52. In this way, the aluminum cans 6a are sorted and stored in the aluminum storage box 51, and the steel cans 6b are sorted and stored in the steel storage box 52.

上を図ることができる。As described above, in the method of selecting articles according to the present invention and the apparatus using the method, magnetic poles are provided at predetermined intervals on the outer periphery of the rotating body, and the rotating body is Since the empty cans can be sucked and moved while rotating, the empty cans supplied to this rotating body do not overlap with the empty cans supplied later, and reliable suction is possible and accurate sorting is possible. Not only this, but also the sorting ability can be increased by increasing the rotation speed of the rotating body, which does not entail the enlargement of the device as in the conventional plate. Furthermore, according to the present invention, since the sorting work can be performed while cleaning the rotating body at all times, sticking occurs due to stickiness due to the contents of the can other than the magnetic force, or the attached matter becomes thick, so that the magnetic force decreases. Can be avoided and accurate sorting can always be guaranteed. Further, in the compression device in which the cutout portion is formed in the press portion, when the empty cans supplied so as to be lined up in the lateral direction of the press portion are pressed, a part of the crushed can is received in the cutout portion. Therefore, the pressed can is moved without being caught by the pressed can. Furthermore, since the swing bar that comes into contact with a part of the received empty cans is provided in the empty can receiving section, the empty cans in the empty can receiving section can be constantly vibrated, and the empty can receiving section can The clogging can be effectively avoided, smooth press work can be performed, and the press processing capacity can be improved.
