Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent massive farm products from being damaged, by using a dispersive feed conveyor capable of dispersedly feeding them so favorably without entailing any damage into each of measuring hoppers in a combination balance, when these farm products such as potatoes, etc., are packed in a fixed quantity. CONSTITUTION:Farm products such as potatoes, etc., are fed to the base end part of a belt conveyor 1 and when the tip of the conveyor 1 is deflected upward by dint of a driving element 3 whereby a detector detects that no goods exists in the lower side, a motor 6 of the conveyor 1 rotates, feeding these farm products forward. These products are fed from the top of an angular member 20 to each concave groove 22 of feeders 21a and 21b, feeders 26a and 26b, auxiliary hoppers 27a and 27b and measuring hoppers 29a and 29b in order. Likewise, when the detector detects the presence of farm products, the conveyor 1 comes to a stop. The driving element 3 operates at all times and when the tip of the conveyor 1 is deflected sideways and thereby the detector finds no products there, the conveyor 1 feeds these products again. Repeating this motion in succession, when these products are fed to all ten measuring hoppers 29a and 29b, a fixed quantity of farm products is concentrated in a collecting hopper 31 and then discharged outside.

However, recently, it has become possible to consider using combination scales to quantitatively package agricultural products such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, and carrots. In the case of agricultural products, it has been found that when trying to use a vibrating type dispersion feeder in a conventional combination scale for confectionery products, there is a problem in that the products are damaged and the product value is significantly reduced. In a combination weighing machine, if a dispersion feeder is not used, it is necessary to appropriately supply articles to each weighing hopper or to the starting end of each feeder connected to each weighing hopper by some means.

Another point is that an air cylinder 55 is used as the second drive section 3. For distribution, the chute 54 is connected to the lower part of the chute 8, and is supported by a shaft 56 so as to swing back and forth with respect to the traveling direction of the conveyor. It's Nishide. An air cylinder 55 as the second drive unit 3 is provided to connect the base 9 and the fixed base 12. Note that the detectors 35 and 36 are configured not to operate during the swinging period of the distribution chute 54. In the drawings, parts equivalent to those in the first embodiment are indicated by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment.

This second embodiment can also be incorporated into the above-mentioned combination weigher and operates in almost the same way, but the distribution is linked to the swinging of the chute 54 to the lateral movement of the tip of the conveyor l. If the lower opening of the chute 54 can be oriented separately to both sides with the top of the chevron-shaped member 20 as the boundary, the distribution can be made to swing to the opposite side at the end of the lateral movement. Items can be supplied separately. A virtual line 58 in FIG. 9 is a locus of movement of the center point of the lower opening of the chute 54.

The fact that articles can be supplied separately to both sides of the straight line 51 or the top of the chevron-shaped member 20 in this way is advantageous even when articles should be supplied only to one side in the configuration in which articles are simultaneously supplied to both sides as in the first embodiment. There is a risk that supplying to both sides will lead to oversupply on one side, but there is no need to worry about that.

上記実施例は、いずれも物品が農産物であるとして説明
したが、他の塊状物であっても適用できる。
Although the above embodiments have all been described assuming that the article is an agricultural product, the present invention can also be applied to other lumps.

In the first embodiment, the conveyor speed may be changed while detecting the absence as in the second embodiment.゛・In other words, by increasing the conveyor speed, most of the articles to be supplied are delivered farther from the conveyor tip, and by decreasing the conveyor speed, most of the articles to be supplied are sent to a location closer to the conveyor tip. Take advantage of that fact. Therefore, when an article is not detected on both sides of the top of the chevron-shaped member 20, the conveyor speed is set to medium so that the article is evenly supplied to both sides, and when no article is detected only on the side far from the conveyor tip, the conveyor speed is set to medium speed. The conveyor speed may be set to a high speed so that the article is fed over the area, and vice versa, the conveyor speed may be set to a low speed.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a dispersion feeding conveyor device that can particularly disperse and feed bulk agricultural products without damage.
