【考案の詳細な説明】
(イ) 考案の分野
この考案は、桃、柿、リンゴ、メロン、じやが
いも等の果菜を搬送しながら個々の等級を判別す
る果菜の等級判別装置に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Field of the invention This invention relates to a fruit vegetable grade discriminating device that discriminates the grade of fruit vegetables such as peaches, persimmons, apples, melons, yams, etc. while transporting them.
(ロ) 考案の背景
上述の果菜の等級を、たとえば、その重量で判
別する場合、個々の果菜を搬送しながら計量する
には、果菜は所定の間隔、すなわち、一個の果菜
を計量するに必要な間隔を隔てて搬送しなければ
ならない。(b) Background of the invention When determining the grade of fruits and vegetables mentioned above, for example, by their weight, in order to weigh each fruit and vegetable while transporting them, the fruits and vegetables must be separated at a predetermined interval, that is, necessary to weigh one fruit and vegetable. must be transported at appropriate intervals.
この搬送手段を搬送ベルトで構成すると、搬送

ると、搬送速度も上げることもできず、その結
果、計量速度が遅いという問題点を有していた。 If this conveying means is configured with a conveyor belt, the intervals between the fruits and vegetables may be disturbed due to the vibrations that occur during conveyance, and a plurality of fruits and vegetables may be fed to the scale at one time. In consideration of the above-mentioned disturbance in the interval caused by vibration, it is necessary to widen the interval during conveyance, and when the disturbance in interval is taken into account, the conveyance speed cannot be increased, and as a result, the weighing speed is slow. It had some problems.
(ハ) 考案の目的
この考案は、果菜を判別毎に仕切り枠で仕切つ

装置の提供を目的とする。(c) Purpose of the invention This invention divides fruits and vegetables into partitions for each classification and transports them, and also divides the conveyor belt before and after the classification, so that the intervals between the fruits and vegetables to be transported can be adjusted to the predetermined distance required for classification. To provide a grade discriminating device for fruits and vegetables that can reliably maintain the interval, increase the discriminating speed, and accurately discriminate the grade without being affected by vibrations during conveyance.

果菜の等級判別装置であることを特徴とする。(d) Structure of the device This device places fruits and vegetables on the same conveying surface as the front and rear conveyor belts and at a constant speed between the front and rear conveyor belts that carry fruits and vegetables at a constant speed. A grade discriminator equipped with a conveyor belt for conveyance is interposed, and a frame-shaped endless belt is provided above the conveyance path surface of the three conveyor belts to allow the conveyance of fruits and vegetables in a state where the fruits and vegetables are separated by partition frames for each classification. At the same time, the frame-shaped endless belt is inclined so that the conveyance start end side is close to the conveyance start end side of the front conveyor belt, and the conveyance end side is close to the conveyance end side of the rear conveyor belt. The apparatus is characterized in that it is a fruit and vegetable grade discriminating device in which a portion is spaced apart from each conveyor belt.
(ホ) 考案の効果
この考案によれば、搬送ベルトで搬送される果

実に判別個々を等級判別器に供給することができ
る。(E) Effects of the invention According to this invention, the fruits and vegetables transported by the transport belt are separated by frame-shaped endless band partitions and transported for each classification, so that the vibrations of the transport belt cause the vegetables to roll. However, a plurality of fruits and vegetables do not come together, and each fruit and vegetable can be reliably supplied to the grade discriminator.
その結果、果菜の搬送間隔は判別に要するピツ
チに必要な最小限の間隔に設定でき、搬送速度も
判別可能な最大速度まで上げることができ、早く
て確実な等級判別ができる。 As a result, the conveyance interval of fruits and vegetables can be set to the minimum interval necessary for the pitch required for discrimination, and the conveyance speed can also be increased to the maximum speed at which discrimination is possible, allowing for quick and reliable grade discrimination.
さらに、等級判別器の搬送ベルトの前後を分割

で判別が狂うことなく、正確な等級判別ができ
る。 Furthermore, because the conveyor belt of the grade discriminator is divided into front and rear halves, vibrations caused during transfer when fruits and vegetables are supplied from the sorting section in the front stage and sorting operations in the sorting section in the rear stage can be avoided. Since the vibrations that occur are not transmitted to the conveyor belt of the grade discriminator, accurate grade discrimination is possible without the discrimination being disturbed by these vibrations.
特に本考案の枠形無端帯は、等級判別装置に果

の装置に供給する放出部でも、同様に仕切り枠は
ベルトの搬送面の近くに位置するので、果菜類は
仕切り枠によつて放出を阻害されずスムースに行
なえる。 In particular, the frame-shaped endless belt of the present invention has a transport start end where fruits and vegetables are transferred to the grading device, and a terminal end where fruits and vegetables are discharged.
Since they are each slanted so that they are close to the conveyor belt, when fruits and vegetables are transferred, the partition frame of the frame-shaped endless belt is located close to the conveyor surface of the front conveyor belt, which prevents the alignment and conveyance of the front stage. The partition frame does not get in the way when transferring fruits and vegetables from the device, and the process can be carried out smoothly with fewer steps.In addition, in the discharge section that supplies fruits and vegetables to the subsequent device, the partition frame is also placed close to the conveying surface of the belt. Because the partition frame is located in the middle of the room, the release of fruits and vegetables is not hindered by the partition frame and can be carried out smoothly.
そして等級判別装置の中間部では、仕切り枠は
搬送ベルト面より上方に離れているため、果菜類
がベルト面上を転動しても、仕切り枠を乗越える
ことがなく、確実に一個づつの果菜類の等級判別
が行なえる。 In the middle part of the grading device, the partition frame is spaced above the conveyor belt surface, so even if fruits and vegetables roll on the belt surface, they will not go over the partition frame and will be reliably separated one by one. It is possible to determine the grade of fruits and vegetables.
