Abstract
The present invention relates to a chopstick automatic sorting device in which a chopstick is separated in both directions along the center of gravity of a chopstick when the chopsticks are inserted in a state in which the directions of the plurality of chopsticks are irregularly mixed so that the chopsticks can be automatically arranged in one direction The chopstick automatic sorting apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a hopper member having a slot-shaped slot through which a chopstick passes, the hopper member being inserted in an irregularly mixed state of chopsticks; A separating member disposed at a lower portion of a slot of the hopper member and having a shape of '∧' so that the chopsticks falling through the slot can be separated from each other along the center of gravity; And two receiving baskets which are in the form of a barrel whose upper surface is opened and which are disposed at both side ends of the separating member and accommodate the chopsticks falling through the separating member.
Description
More particularly, the present invention relates to a device for automatically separating and aligning chopsticks, and more particularly, when chopsticks are inserted in a state in which a plurality of chopsticks are randomly interwoven, the chopsticks are separated in both directions according to the position of the center of gravity of the chopsticks, So that the chopsticks can be automatically arranged in one direction.
Generally, chopsticks are not only an essential item for eating food as a meal tool in Korea but also in other countries including Asia, and their use is becoming increasingly globalized. The tip of the food is thin and thin, The part is thick and thick compared with the tip, so that the ends are generally different in weight from each other.
Such a chopstick is made of a material such as metal or synthetic resin when it is not disposable, and is used after being washed, dried and reused.
In this case, when the chopsticks are washed to be reused, the lines / rear ends of the chopsticks are arranged irregularly intermingled. Therefore, when storing the chopsticks in a storage container for reuse, There is an inconvenience that it is necessary to arrange it in the container.
Recently, a chopstick aligner has been developed to solve this inconvenience.
For example, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0414384 discloses a sorting member provided with a sorting hole for sorting the top and bottom of a chopstick, which is in the form of a top-down bottom with respect to the cross-sectional area, A chopstick separator comprising a guide member connected to the sorting member so as to be able to move downwardly and a support member coupled to a lower portion of the guide member and having an opening formed therein.
However, in the conventional chopstick sorting machine, when the chopsticks are inserted into the body, the sorting member inserted in the cylinder is lifted up and then the protruding chopsticks are caught and collected. Even if the tip of the chopstick is arranged at the bottom, And the movement of the chopsticks protruding upward is limited due to the interference of the chopsticks inserted into the hole, so that it is necessary to arrange the chopsticks protruding from the upper part one by one by hand, , Which is not hygienically problematic.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a chopstick, which, when chopsticks are inserted in a state in which the directions of chopsticks are irregularly mixed, So that the chopsticks can be automatically arranged in one direction.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a chopstick which can accurately align the chopsticks because the chopsticks are not splashed during the process of sorting the chopsticks and the length of the slot into which the chopsticks are inserted can be varied according to the length of the chopsticks, The present invention also provides a chopstick automatic sorting apparatus which can be applied to a chopstick.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a chopstick automatic sorting apparatus including a slot having a slot shape through which a chopstick passes, the hopper being inserted into a state in which the chopsticks are irregularly mixed, Wow; A separating member disposed at a lower portion of a slot of the hopper member and having a shape of '∧' so that the chopsticks falling through the slot can be separated from each other along the center of gravity; And two receiving baskets which are in the form of a barrel whose upper surface is opened and which are disposed at both side ends of the separating member and accommodate the chopsticks falling through the separating member.
According to the present invention, the chopsticks are separated according to the arranging direction by the separating member, which is a plate shaped in the form of a plate inclined downward toward both sides from the center, .
Particularly, in the present invention, the slot adjusting member is slidably inserted into the slot of the hopper member, and the length of the slot is adjusted according to the length of the chopstick. Therefore, the length of the slot can be easily adjusted according to the length of the chopsticks.
