However, since the product G is sent to the separator 2 one by one, the count sensor 3 counts the number of passing products, and the control means 4 determines each of the predetermined numbers based on the count signal. The channel switching means is switched every time the number of products packed in each stage is counted, and by this switching, the product G is transferred to each vertical feed conveyor 10a, 10b of the first-stage transport line 1a and the second-stage transport line 1b for each required number of products. It will be distributed alternately.

部に待機しているトレーTの下段に供給される。Then, the product G 1 for the first stage, which is distributed to the vertical feed conveyor 10a side of the first-stage transport line 1a, is first fed onto the reversing conveyer 5a constituting the reversing device 5, and the reverse conveyor 5a. It is inverted by being conveyed while being sandwiched between the reverse arc surface 50a and the arcuate guide portion 51a of the horizontal feed conveyor 11a, and is laterally transferred by the horizontal feed conveyor 11a. Then, the first-stage tray packing apparatus 6a, firstly, by the transfer of products G 1 by the stopper 60a is restricted, after being aligned in a state in which the product G 1 mutual spacing sent packed, The pusher 61 pushes it out onto the feeding conveyor 62, and then the feeding conveyor 62 feeds it to the lower stage of the tray T waiting on its lower part.

ことになる。Next, the product G 2 for the second stage, which is distributed to the vertical feed conveyor 10b side of the second-stage transport line 1b, is inverted by the reversing device 5 as in the case of the first-stage transport line 1a. After that, the sheet is laterally transferred by the horizontal feed conveyor 11b, and the second-stage tray packing device 6b uses the first-stage tray packing device 6a.
In the same manner as in the above case, the products G 2 are supplied in an aligned state, being stacked on the upper stage of the tray T, that is, on the lower stage product G 1 .
尚、この上段の製品G2も、前記反転装置5によって上下
反転されるので、赤色着色面gが上向きの状態となる。The product G 2 in the upper stage is also inverted upside down by the inversion device 5, so that the red colored surface g faces upward.

As described above, the number of stuffing stages of the crab leg meat-like kneaded product G, which is wrapped in a film in a rod shape and cut into a certain size, into the tray T for each number of products according to the number of stuffing in each stage. By distributing the product to the first-stage transport line 1a and the second-stage transport line 1b and supplying the product G 1 from the lower stage to the product G 2 in the upper stage in the tray T in order, It is possible to automate the packing work and to speed up the product supply work to the tray T by allocating the transfer lines 1a and 1b. Therefore, the processing capacity of the whole production line is greatly increased (about double). Is possible.

能になるという効果が得られる。In the product packing apparatus of the present invention, a plurality of transfer lines corresponding to the number of packing stages in the tray, a separator for continuously transferring the products supplied to each of the transfer lines, and a separator A count sensor provided in front of the counter, which counts the number of passing products, control means for switching the channel of the separator for each packing number of each stage, which is predetermined based on the count signal of the count sensor, and each of the transports. A tray packing device, which is provided at each end of the line, supplies the required number of products that have been conveyed from above into the tray in an aligned state, and is provided along the lower part of each tray packing device. After the tray filling device supplies the lower product, the upper tray filling device supplies the upper product. Since it is equipped with a tray supply device that sequentially feeds trays from the lower tray packing device to the upper tray packing device, it is possible to automate the tray packing operation and to convey multiple trays. By distributing to the line, it is possible to perform tray packing work without stopping products that are continuously supplied,
Therefore, there is an effect that the processing capacity of the entire manufacturing line can be significantly increased.
