【0008】[0008]
請求項1に記載の本考案によれば、下記の作用がある。 物品は、一対をなす物品側磁性体の一方(又は両方)を入側ガイド用磁性体 に吸引される入側姿勢を保持されて搬入される。そして、物品は、方向転換用磁 性体の入側で物品側磁性体の一方(又は両方)を方向転換用磁性体に吸引され、 搬送手段上で上述の入側姿勢から方向転換された後、方向転換用磁性体の出側で 物品側磁性体の両方(又は一方)を出側ガイド用磁性体に吸引され、搬送手段上 で更に方向転換されて出側姿勢を付与されて搬出される。尚、物品は、方向転換 用磁性体の出側で出側ガイド用磁性体の側に移行する際、物品姿勢規制用磁性体 に吸引され、物品側磁性体の両方(又は一方)の向きが出側ガイド用磁性体の向 きに合致するように物品の姿勢を規制し、上述の出側姿勢を安定付与される。 According to the present invention as set forth in claim 1, the following effects are obtained. The article is carried in while maintaining the entrance side posture in which one (or both) of the pair of article side magnetic bodies is attracted by the entrance side guide magnetic body. After the article is attracted to one of the article-side magnetic bodies (or both) by the direction-changing magnetic body at the entry side of the direction-changing magnetic body, and is transformed from the above-mentioned entry-side posture on the conveying means. At the exit side of the direction-changing magnetic body, both (or one) of the article-side magnetic bodies are attracted to the exit-side guiding magnetic body, and then the direction is further changed on the conveying means to carry out the article with the exit-side posture. . Note that the article is attracted by the article attitude regulating magnetic body when it moves to the exit side guide magnetic body side on the exit side of the direction changing magnetic body, and both (or one) of the article side magnetic bodies are oriented. The posture of the article is regulated so as to match the direction of the outgoing guide magnetic body, and the above outgoing posture is stably imparted.
【0009】 このとき、入側ガイド用磁性体が物品搬送経路に沿う方向に延在されている場 合には、物品は入側ガイド用磁性体のより搬送上流側から搬入されてスムースに 入側ガイド用磁性体の設置領域に進入し、該入側ガイド用磁性体に吸引されて上 述の入側姿勢を保持せしめられる。At this time, when the entrance-side guide magnetic body extends in the direction along the article conveyance path, the article is carried in from the conveyance upstream side of the entrance-side guide magnetic body and smoothly enters. The magnetic material for the side guide enters the installation area and is attracted by the magnetic material for the side guide to hold the above-mentioned entrance posture.
【0010】 また、出側ガイド用磁性体が物品搬送経路に沿う方向に延在されている場合に は、物品は出側ガイド用磁性体によって付与された出側姿勢のまま、該出側ガイ ド用磁性体のより搬送下流側に向けてスムースに搬出される。Further, when the delivery-side guide magnetic body extends in the direction along the article conveying path, the article is kept in the delivery-side posture given by the delivery-side guide magnetic body. The magnetic material is smoothly carried out toward the downstream side of the transportation.
【0011】 また、入側ガイド用磁性体と出側ガイド用磁性体が互いに平行をなすように設 置されている場合には、物品は入側姿勢から出側姿勢に90度方向転換されるもの となる。Further, when the entrance-side guide magnetic body and the exit-side guide magnetic body are arranged so as to be parallel to each other, the article is turned by 90 degrees from the entrance-side attitude to the exit-side attitude. Will be things.
【0012】 即ち、物品の方向転換は、入側ガイド用磁性体から方向転換用磁性体を経て出 側ガイド用磁性体に到達する際の一時になされる。従って、装置構成は単純であ り、整列ないしは方向転換するための時間と搬送距離も小である。That is, the direction of the article is changed at a time when the magnetic material for guiding the entrance side passes through the magnetic material for changing the direction and reaches the magnetic body for the exit side guide. Therefore, the structure of the device is simple, and the time and transport distance for aligning or changing direction are short.
【0013】 請求項2に記載の本考案によれば、下記の作用がある。 方向転換用磁性体が物品搬送経路に沿う方向に凸状をなす湾曲状にて、入側 ガイド用磁性体と出側ガイド用磁性体のそれぞれに対して斜交配置される。従っ て、物品が入側ガイド用磁性体の出側において方向転換用磁性体の側に移行する 際の物品側磁性体の方向転換角は小(緩やか)となる。また、物品が方向転換用 磁性体の出側において出側ガイド用磁性体の側に移行する際の物品側磁性体の方 向転換角は小(緩やか)となる。このため、物品は、方向転換用磁性体の入側で 入側姿勢から緩やかに方向転換され、方向転換用磁性体の途中で更に方向転換を 緩やかに続行され、方向転換用磁性体の出側でも緩やかに方向転換され、結果と して極めてスムースに出側姿勢を付与される。よって、高速搬送下でも物品を安 定的に方向転換できる。According to the present invention as set forth in claim 2, the following effects are obtained. The direction-changing magnetic body has a curved shape that is convex in the direction along the article transport path, and is obliquely arranged with respect to each of the incoming guide magnetic body and the outgoing guide magnetic body. Therefore, the direction change angle of the article-side magnetic body becomes small (gradual) when the article moves to the direction-changing magnetic body side on the exit side of the entrance-side guide magnetic body. In addition, the direction change angle of the article-side magnetic body when the article moves to the exit-side guide magnetic body side on the exit side of the direction-changing magnetic body is small (gradual). For this reason, the article is gently changed in direction from the entrance side posture at the entrance side of the direction changing magnetic body, and the direction change is further continued in the middle of the direction changing magnetic body, and the exit side of the direction changing magnetic body is made. However, the direction was changed gently, and as a result, the exit posture was given very smoothly. Therefore, it is possible to stably change the direction of the article even under high-speed transportation.
【0014】 請求項3に記載の本考案によれば、下記の作用がある。 方向転換用磁性体が複数個の磁性体片を連設してなり、かつ後続磁性体片の 入側端を先行磁性体片の出側端に対して一部出側にずらして連設される。物品の 搬送速度が高速になると、物品は方向転換用磁性体の各磁性体片との吸引状態を 安定保持する間もなく、当該磁性体片を通過する傾向が大となる。このため、方 向転換用磁性体の各磁性体片が物品搬送経路に沿う方向に傾斜配置されて連設さ れている場合には、物品は先行磁性体片の出側から物品搬送経路に沿う方向に飛 び出る如くになり、後続磁性体片に安定吸引されるチャンスを失う虞れが高くな る。このとき、本考案にあっては、後続磁性体片の入側端を先行磁性体片の出側 端に対して一部出側にずらして連設してあることから、高速搬送下で先行磁性体 片の出側から飛び出る如くの物品の物品側磁性体をその出側にずらされて待ち受 ける後続磁性体片にて安定吸引し、方向転換用磁性体による方向転換作用を安定 付与できる。よって、高速搬送下でも物品を安定的に方向転換できる。According to the present invention as set forth in claim 3, the following effects are obtained. The direction changing magnetic body is formed by connecting a plurality of magnetic material pieces in series, and the input side end of the succeeding magnetic material piece is shifted in part toward the output side of the preceding magnetic material piece so as to be connected continuously. It When the conveying speed of the article becomes high, the article has a large tendency to pass through the magnetic piece before it can stably maintain the attracted state with each magnetic piece of the direction changing magnetic body. For this reason, if each magnetic piece of the direction-changing magnetic material is connected in a row along the article transport path with an inclination, the article will move from the exit side of the preceding magnetic piece to the article transport path. It will come out in the direction along, and there is a high risk that the chance of being stably attracted to the succeeding magnetic piece will be lost. At this time, in the present invention, since the entrance side end of the succeeding magnetic material piece is continuously shifted with respect to the exit side end of the preceding magnetic material piece, the leading side end of the preceding magnetic material piece is advanced under high-speed conveyance. The magnetic material on the article side of the article that pops out from the exit side of the magnetic piece can be stably attracted by the succeeding magnetic piece that is shifted to the exit side, and the direction changing action of the direction changing magnetic body can be stably imparted. . Therefore, it is possible to stably change the direction of the article even under high speed transportation.

A side guide magnet 16, a direction changing magnet 17, and an exit side guide magnet 18 are provided. That is, the article-side magnets 15A and 15B are arranged with their S poles on the side facing the conveyor belt 11, and the entrance-side guide magnet 16, the direction-changing magnet 17, and the exit-side guide magnet 18 have their N-poles on the article side. It is possible to face the S poles of the magnets 15A and 15B.

In series, and the direction changing magnet 17 is formed by connecting a plurality of magnet pieces 17A, 17B. The output side guide magnet 18 is composed of a plurality of magnet pieces 18A, 18B, ...
【0021】 このとき、方向転換用磁石17は、入側ガイド用磁石16と出側ガイド用磁石 18のそれぞれに対して斜交配置される。そして、方向転換用磁石17は物品搬 送経路に沿う方向に凸状をなす湾曲状にて入側ガイド用磁石16と出側ガイド用 磁石18のそれぞれに対して斜交配置される。尚、方向転換用磁石17は出側ガ イド用磁石18に対する交差角θを45度程度としている。At this time, the direction-changing magnets 17 are obliquely arranged with respect to the entrance-side guide magnets 16 and the exit-side guide magnets 18, respectively. The direction changing magnets 17 are arranged obliquely with respect to each of the entrance side guide magnets 16 and the exit side guide magnets 18 in a curved shape that is convex in the direction along the article carrying path. The direction-changing magnet 17 has an intersection angle θ of about 45 degrees with respect to the outgoing guide magnet 18.
【0022】 また、入側ガイド用磁石16と出側ガイド用磁石18は、それぞれ物品搬送経 路に沿う方向に延在され、かつ互いに平行をなすように設置されている。Further, the entrance-side guide magnet 16 and the exit-side guide magnet 18 are installed so as to extend in the direction along the article transport path and to be parallel to each other.

An article attitude regulating magnet 19 that attracts the article-side magnet 15A (or 15B) of the article 12 that has passed through the magnet 17 is arranged. The article posture regulating magnet 19 regulates the posture of the article 12 so that the orientation of the article-side magnet 15A (or 15B) matches the orientation of the exit side guide magnet 18. That is, the article attitude regulating magnet 19 can make the N pole face the S poles of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B.
【0024】 以下、上記搬送装置10による方向転換動作について説明する(図2)。 (1) 物品12は、物品側磁石15A、15Bの長手方向を物品搬送経路の移動 方向に沿う方向に設定されて搬入され、物品側磁石15Aを入側ガイド用磁石1 6のより搬送上流側からスムースに入側ガイド用磁石16の設置領域に進入せし められる。これにより、物品12は、一方の物品側磁石15Aを入側ガイド用磁 石16に吸引される入側姿勢を保持されて搬入される。このとき、他方の物品側 磁石15Bは入側ガイド用磁石16より図において下側を移動する。Hereinafter, the direction changing operation of the carrying device 10 will be described (FIG. 2). (1) The article 12 is carried in with the longitudinal direction of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B set in the direction along the moving direction of the article transport path, and the article-side magnet 15A is transported further upstream than the entry-side guide magnet 16 From there, it is possible to smoothly enter the installation area of the entrance-side guide magnet 16. As a result, the article 12 is carried in with the article-side magnet 15A held in the entry-side posture in which the article-side magnet 15A is attracted to the entry-side guide magnet 16. At this time, the other article-side magnet 15B moves below the entry-side guide magnet 16 in the figure.
【0025】 (2) 物品12は、方向転換用磁石17の入側で、物品側磁石15Aを方向転換 用磁石17に吸引され、搬送ベルト11上で上述の入側姿勢から緩やかに方向転 換される。その後、物品12は、方向転換用磁石17の途中で該磁石17の湾曲 状設置経路に沿って更に方向転換を緩やかに続行される。(2) The article 12 has its article-side magnet 15 A attracted by the article-direction magnet 17 at the entry side of the direction-changing magnet 17, and the article 12 gradually changes its direction from the above-mentioned entry-side posture. To be done. Thereafter, the article 12 is further gradually changed its direction along the curved installation path of the magnet 17 for changing the direction.
【0026】 (3) 物品12は、方向転換用磁石17の出側で、物品側磁石15A、15Bの 両方を出側ガイド用磁石18に吸引され、緩やかに方向転換され、前述の入側姿 勢に対して90度をなす出側姿勢を付与される。尚、物品12は、方向転換用磁石 17の出側で出側ガイド用磁石18に移行して上述の如く方向転換されるとき、 物品側磁石15Bを物品姿勢規制用磁石19に吸引され、物品側磁石15A、1 5Bを結ぶ直線の向きが出側ガイド用磁石18の向きに合致するように物品12 の姿勢を規制し、上述の出側姿勢を安定付与される。(3) The article 12 is attracted by the article guide magnets 18 at the exit side of the direction changing magnet 17 and both of the article magnets 15A and 15B are gently turned to change the shape of the article to the entrance side. It is given an exit posture that makes 90 degrees against the force. When the article 12 moves to the exit-side guide magnet 18 on the exit side of the direction-changing magnet 17 and changes its direction as described above, the article-side magnet 15B is attracted to the article-posture-regulating magnet 19, The attitude of the article 12 is regulated so that the direction of the straight line connecting the side magnets 15A and 15B matches the direction of the exit side guide magnet 18, and the exit side attitude is stably given.
【0027】 (4) 物品12は、出側ガイド用磁石18によって付与された出側姿勢のまま、 出側ガイド用磁石18のより搬送下流側に向けてスムースに搬出される。(4) The article 12 is smoothly carried out toward the downstream side of the delivery guide magnet 18 while keeping the delivery posture provided by the delivery guide magnet 18.
【0028】 従って、搬送装置10によれば、下記、の作用がある。 物品12は、入側ガイド用磁石16から方向転換用磁石17を経て出側ガイ ド用磁石18に到達する際に一時に方向転換される。また、物品姿勢規制用磁石 19の存在により、方向転換用磁石17から出側ガイド用磁石18に移行する際 に、上述の出側姿勢を安定付与される。従って、装置構成は単純であり、整列な いしは方向転換するための時間と搬送距離も小である。Therefore, the transport device 10 has the following actions. When the article 12 reaches the exit guide magnet 18 from the entry guide magnet 16 through the turn magnet 17, the article 12 is redirected at one time. Further, due to the existence of the article attitude regulating magnet 19, the above-mentioned exit side attitude is stably given when the direction changing magnet 17 is transferred to the exit side guide magnet 18. Therefore, the device configuration is simple, and the time and transport distance for alignment or direction change are short.
【0029】 方向転換用磁石17が物品搬送経路に沿う方向に凸状をなす湾曲状にて、入 側ガイド用磁石16と出側ガイド用磁石18のそれぞれに対して斜交配置される 。従って、物品12が入側ガイド用磁石16の出側において方向転換用磁石17 の側に移行する際の物品側磁石15A、15Bの方向転換角は小(緩やか)とな る。また、物品12が方向転換用磁石17の出側において出側ガイド用磁石18 の側に移行する際の物品側磁石15A、15Bの方向転換角は小(緩やか)とな る。このため、物品12は、方向転換用磁石17の入側で入側姿勢から緩やかに 方向転換され、方向転換用磁石17の途中で更に方向転換を緩やかに続行され、 方向転換用磁石17の出側でも緩やかに方向転換され、結果として極めてスムー スに出側姿勢を付与される。よって、高速搬送下でも物品12を安定的に方向転 換できる。The direction-changing magnets 17 are arranged obliquely with respect to the entrance-side guide magnets 16 and the exit-side guide magnets 18 in a curved shape that is convex in the direction along the article transport path. Therefore, the direction change angles of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B when the article 12 moves to the direction-changing magnet 17 side on the exit side of the entry-side guide magnet 16 are small (gradual). In addition, the turning angle of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B when the article 12 moves to the exit-side guide magnet 18 side on the exit side of the turning magnet 17 is small (gradual). For this reason, the article 12 is gently changed in direction from the entrance side posture at the entrance side of the direction changing magnet 17, the direction change is further continued in the middle of the direction changing magnet 17, and the direction changing magnet 17 exits. On the side as well, the direction is gently changed, and as a result, the exit posture is given extremely smoothly. Therefore, the direction of the article 12 can be stably changed even under high speed conveyance.
【0030】 尚、本考案の実施において、物品12は、物品側磁石15A、15Bを結ぶ直 線の向きを物品搬送経路の移動方向に沿う方向に設定される入側姿勢にて搬入さ れ、物品側磁石15A、15Bの両方を入側ガイド用磁石16、ひいては方向転 換用磁石17に吸引されるものであっても良い。このとき、物品12は、物品側 磁石15Aを出側ガイド用磁石18に吸引され、物品側磁石15A、15Bの長 手方向を搬送ベルト11の移動方向に沿わされる出側姿勢を付与されて搬出され る。In the practice of the present invention, the article 12 is carried in in the entry side posture in which the direction of the straight line connecting the article-side magnets 15A and 15B is set in the direction along the moving direction of the article conveyance path. Both of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B may be attracted to the entrance-side guide magnet 16 and then to the direction conversion magnet 17. At this time, the article 12 is attracted by the article-side magnet 15A to the exit-side guide magnet 18, and the article-side magnets 15A and 15B are provided with an exit-side posture in which the longitudinal direction of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B is along the moving direction of the conveyor belt 11. It is shipped.
【0031】 また、本考案の実施において、入側ガイド用磁石16、出側ガイド用磁石18 に対する方向転換用磁石17の斜交角度は任意に選択できる。また、入側ガイド 用磁石16と出側ガイド用磁石18は必ずしも搬送ベルト11の移動方向に沿う ことを必須とされず、入側ガイド用磁石16と出側ガイド用磁石18は必ずしも 互いに平行配置されることを必須とされない。Further, in implementing the present invention, the oblique angle of the direction changing magnet 17 with respect to the entrance guide magnet 16 and the exit guide magnet 18 can be arbitrarily selected. Further, the inlet guide magnet 16 and the outlet guide magnet 18 are not necessarily required to follow the moving direction of the conveyor belt 11, and the inlet guide magnet 16 and the outlet guide magnet 18 are not necessarily arranged parallel to each other. It is not mandatory to be done.
【0032】 また、本考案の実施においては、物品側磁石15A、15Bを磁石ではない鋼 板等の磁性体に代え、或いは磁石16〜19を磁石ではない鋼板等の磁性体に代 えるものであって良い。更に、物品側磁石15A、15Bのいずれか一方が磁石 、他方が磁石でない鋼板等の磁性体であっても良い。Further, in the practice of the present invention, the article-side magnets 15A and 15B are replaced with magnetic materials such as steel plates which are not magnets, or the magnets 16 to 19 are replaced with magnetic materials such as steel plates which are not magnets. Good to have Further, one of the article-side magnets 15A and 15B may be a magnet, and the other may be a magnetic body such as a steel plate that is not a magnet.
【0033】 また、本考案の実施において、各磁石16〜19は、搬送ベルト11による物 品搬送経路の上方位置に配置されるものであっても良い。このとき、物品側磁石 15A、15Bは物品12の上面側に設けられる。Further, in the practice of the present invention, each of the magnets 16 to 19 may be arranged at a position above the article conveying path by the conveyor belt 11. At this time, the article-side magnets 15A and 15B are provided on the upper surface side of the article 12.
【0034】 (第2実施例)(図4) 第2実施例が第1実施例と異なる点は、方向転換用磁石17を構成する各磁石 片17A、17B…の配置を、後続磁石片(例えば17B)の入側端をそれに先 行する磁石片(例えば17A)の出側端に対して一部を物品移動経路の搬送方向 に沿う出側にずらして連設したことにある。即ち、後続磁石片(例えば17B) の入側面角部21を、先行磁石片(例えば17A)の出側面中央部に当接せしめ た。(Second Embodiment) (FIG. 4) The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the magnet pieces 17 A, 17 B, ... For example, the inlet side end of 17B) is partially connected to the outlet side end of the preceding magnet piece (for example, 17A) so as to be offset to the outlet side along the conveyance direction of the article moving path. That is, the entrance side corner portion 21 of the succeeding magnet piece (for example, 17B) is brought into contact with the center of the exit side surface of the preceding magnet piece (for example, 17A).
【0035】 即ち、搬送装置10では、物品12の搬送速度が高速になると、物品12は、 方向転換用磁石17の各磁石片17A、17B…との吸引状態を安定確保する間 もなく、当該磁石片17A、17B…を通過する傾向が次第に大となる。このた め、方向転換用磁石17の各磁石片17A、17B…が物品搬送経路に沿う方向 に傾斜配置されて連設されている場合には、物品12は先行磁石片(例えば17 A)の出側から物品搬送経路に沿う方向に飛び出る如くになり、後続磁石片(例 えば17B)に安定吸引されるチャンスを失う虞れを生ずる。そこで、本実施例 にあっては、後続磁石片(例えば17B)の入側端を先行磁石片(例えば17A )の出側端に対して一部出側にずらして連設するものとしたから、高速搬送下で 先行磁石片(例えば17A)の出側から飛び出る如くの物品12の物品側磁石1 5A、15Bをその出側にずらされて待ち受ける後続磁石片(例えば17B)に て安定吸引し、方向転換装置17による方向転換作用を安定付与できる。よって 、高速搬送下でも物品12を安定的に方向転換できる。That is, in the carrying device 10, when the carrying speed of the article 12 becomes high, the article 12 does not reach a stable state of attraction with the magnet pieces 17 A, 17 B, ... The tendency to pass through the magnet pieces 17A, 17B ... becomes gradually greater. For this reason, when the magnet pieces 17A, 17B, ... Of the direction changing magnet 17 are arranged in a row along the article transporting path in a slanting arrangement, the article 12 is the same as the preceding magnet piece (for example, 17A). As it comes out from the exit side in the direction along the article transport path, there is a possibility that the chance of being stably attracted to the succeeding magnet piece (for example, 17B) is lost. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the entrance end of the succeeding magnet piece (for example, 17B) is partially shifted to the exit side with respect to the exit end of the preceding magnet piece (for example, 17A) so as to be connected continuously. , The article-side magnets 15A and 15B of the article 12 as if jumping from the exit side of the preceding magnet piece (for example, 17A) under high-speed conveyance are stably attracted to the succeeding magnet piece (for example, 17B) that is awaited by being shifted to the exit side. The direction changing action of the direction changing device 17 can be stably provided. Therefore, the direction of the article 12 can be stably changed even under high-speed conveyance.
【0036】 尚、本考案者の実験結果によれば、図4の搬送装置10において、物品12の 重量を1.5kg とし、搬送ベルト11の表面での各磁石16〜19の磁束密度を70 0 〜1000Gauss とするとき、搬送速度75m/min において、物品12をスムースに 方向転換できることを認めた。According to the experiment result of the present inventor, in the conveyor 10 of FIG. 4, the weight of the article 12 is 1.5 kg, and the magnetic flux density of each magnet 16 to 19 on the surface of the conveyor belt 11 is 70 0. It was confirmed that the article 12 can be smoothly turned at a conveying speed of 75 m / min when the pressure is set to be about 1000 Gauss.
