In particular, it pertains to those in which the plates are conveyed all at once to the next step orthogonally to the conveyance direction while standing or in an upright state.
It is suitable for upright drying and upright cooling of a plate, or upright loading and unloading of a plate between hot plates of a horizontal multi-stage press or between receiving plates of an assembly device.

所を一対のチエンコンベヤのリンクチエンに支持させ、
チエンコンベヤの周速に応じて搬送させていた。``Prior Art'' Conventionally, in the plywood manufacturing process, when drying or cooling a board by controlling its upright position, a plurality of forks are fixed between a pair of chain conveyors perpendicular to the conveying direction. A plate is interposed between these forks, and its two lower ends are supported by link chains of a pair of chain conveyors.
It was conveyed according to the circumferential speed of the chain conveyor.

に設定されている若干のクリアランスをさらに拡開する
ことになり、チェノコンベヤが撓んで、リンクチエンに
固着されているフォークの間隔が狂うことになる。However, if the chain conveyor is continuously rotated due to the meshing of the chain wheel and the link chain, each link/chain will wear out, and when the chain wheel and link chain are rotated again, the meshing state with the chain wheel will become loose, causing the chain conveyor to become loose. In order to create an endless track, the slight clearance set between the link chains has to be further expanded, causing the chain conveyor to flex and disrupting the spacing between the forks fixed to the link chains.

このため、板体の起立搬送途上、各フォークの」一方部
分が板体に衝突したり、或いは板体の下部が拡開したク
リアランスに挾まれる等、板体を損傷する結果となって
いた。As a result, during the upright transportation of the plate, one part of each fork collided with the plate, or the lower part of the plate got caught in the expanded clearance, resulting in damage to the plate. .

する傾向にあり、上記記載のように、チエンコンベヤが
撓めば、上記不都合は増長されることになる。In particular, this type of fork in which the plate body is interposed in a freely undulating manner has its lower end simply supported by a link chain whose supporting area is small compared to the length of the fork, and when the fork is erected, Since there is no special means for holding adjacent forks at equal intervals, even under normal conditions, the upper free ends of the forks tend to deviate from their upright position, and as described above, Furthermore, if the chain conveyor is bent, the above-mentioned disadvantages will be exacerbated.

When carrying out the product, the plate body collides with the side of the hot plate or receiving plate due to misalignment of the fork spacing, swinging of the fork, etc.

途上揺動する欠点を新たに派生させることになる。For this reason, some attempts have been made to increase the area of the link chain to firmly support the forks and regulate the straightness, but if the area of the link chain increases, the distance between adjacent forks will increase proportionally. This may lead to new problems such as the spacing between the hot plate, the receiving plate, etc. not being consistent, or the plate body interposed between the forks swinging during transportation.

方折返し部に当接し、停止される。At this time, the shelf 12 located at the forefront is located slightly above the horizontal plane, the next shelf 12 is located slightly below, and the gap between them is widened, and the plates 13 are sequentially inserted into the space between the shelves 12. Then, the leading ends of the belts come into contact with the upper folded portions of the belt conveyors 27 and 28 and are stopped.

Since two sets of chain conveyors 7 in at least one row are engaged with mutually interlocking auxiliary chain wheels 32',
The spacing between the shelves 12 will be further restricted.

る。``Effects'' As described above, according to the present invention, a shelf with a spacer attached to the upper part is arranged horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors via an attachment, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are arranged horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are arranged horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are arranged horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors, and the shelves are placed horizontally between a pair of chain conveyors. Since a plurality of interlocking auxiliary chain wheels are meshed with the link chain, it is possible to prevent the plates from being damaged due to the fork spacing being out of alignment, fork swinging, etc. as described above.

記記載と同様の効果が得られるものである。In addition, by adopting a double-row chain conveyor and multiple sets of chain conveyors, the support area of the link chain is expanded to support the shelves, and furthermore, auxiliary chains that interlock with each other over an arbitrary distance within the chain wheel interval are used. If the wheel is meshed with the link chain, the same effect as described above can be obtained.
