Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Field of Application> This invention relates to a depanner device that automatically scoops up baked sweet bread from a baking tray in a baking line.

<Prior art> As this type of depanner device, Utility Model Publication No. 54-16159
There is an idea described in the No.

As shown in FIG. 5, the above conventional device includes a conveyor 7 that conveys a top plate 9 on which sweet breads are arranged and placed, and a conveyor 7 that is disposed above the conveyor 7, has a base end pivoted, and a free end end. It consists of a take-out conveyor 8 which is lowered low and close to the transport conveyor 7. When the top plate 9 reaches the bottom of the take-out conveyor 8, the tip of the take-out conveyor 8 descends to the surface of the top plate 9 and takes out the lined up sweet breads one after another, and after taking out all the sweet breads, it rises and transfers them to the top plate. Allow board 9 to transition.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in the conventional depanner device described above, when the scooping angle of the take-out conveyor 8 with respect to the top plate 9 is set to an obtuse angle, the front wall of the top plate 9 causes Wasted space where you can't line up pastries 9
1 occurs. On the other hand, if the scooping angle of the take-out conveyor is set to an acute angle, the space loss will be reduced to some extent, but on the other hand, the sweet bread will be scooped up forcibly, which may cause deformation or damage. For this reason, there has recently been a strong demand in the bread making industry for a depanner device that can eliminate the space and loss in front of the top plate and also set the scooping angle of the takeout conveyor to a gentle angle suitable for scooping. There are, but
No such device currently exists. Therefore, the object of this invention is to provide a new depanner device that satisfies the above requirements by providing a simple structure to the tip of the take-out conveyor and a portion of the conveyor.

<Means for Solving the Problems> To explain the means of this invention to achieve the above object, this invention includes a conveyor that conveys a top plate on which sweet bread is placed, and a conveyor for conveying the top plate on which sweet bread is placed. In a depanner device equipped with a take-out conveyor disposed above and whose tip end is inclined close to the top plate, the conveyor is provided with a liftable conveyance part that raises the top plate at a sweet bread take-out position by a predetermined degree, The take-out conveyor is provided with a bent portion bent diagonally downward at its tip.

<Function> The take-out conveyor is positioned with the bent end portion slightly above the top plate passing position by the transport conveyor, and is on standby for taking out the sweet bread. When the baking sheet on which the sweet bread is placed moves to the position of the take-out conveyor, the folded neck part of the take-out conveyor falls down, and the tip engages near the front wall of the baking sheet that is being transferred, and the top plate is moved. As the bread moves forward, the sweet bread in the front row is scooped into the take-out conveyor by the neck folding part and taken out.
On the other hand, in the transport conveyor, the transport section including the top plate corresponding to the take-out conveyor rises in synchronization with or in conjunction with the operation of the neck-folding section, and in synchronization with this, the neck-folding section returns to its original state. As a result, the tip of the take-out conveyor comes into contact with the top plate at a stable scooping angle, and the aligned sweet breads are taken out one by one due to the movement of the top plate. When all the sweet breads on the top plate are moved to the take-out conveyor, the conveyor unit lowers in conjunction with this, lowering the top plate by the height of the rear wall and transporting it from the conveyor position, and the take-out conveyor and conveyor unit move to the next The machine waits for the top plate to be transported and repeats the same operation.

<Example> The drawing shows a depanner device according to an example of this invention.

The depanner device is installed between the entire length of the machine frame 1 and has a top plate 6 on which baked sweet bread is placed.
and a take-out conveyor 4, which is disposed above the conveyor 2 and whose tip is sloped low, scoops up the sweet bread from the top plate 6 during transfer.

As shown in FIG. 1, the conveyor 2 includes wheels 21, whose input side is located at a higher position than the output side.
A plurality of endless chains 23 are wound between the wheels 22, and the upper sides of both endless chains 23 are supported on a guide rail 24 as shown in FIG. The carrying conveyor 2 is connected at its carry-in side to the carrying-out conveyor from the oven, and sequentially carries in the top plates 6 on which baked sweet breads are placed.

The conveyor 2 is provided with a conveyor section 2a that can be raised and lowered to raise the top plate 6 by a predetermined degree when it reaches the sweet bread removal position. The transport section 2a cuts the corresponding guide rail 24 into a length corresponding to approximately the front-to-back width of the top plate 6, pivots the cut sections 27 to each other, and pivots both ends of the rail to the machine frame 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cutting rail 24a is
It is attached to the upper surface of a plate 29 supported by a lifting guide 28 with respect to the machine frame 1, and a lifting mechanism 3 consisting of a ring 30, a cylinder 31, etc. is connected to this plate 29, and the lifting mechanism 3 is connected to the top plate 6. When it reaches the sweet bread take-out position, it operates and raises the top plate 6, and the take-out conveyor 4
Just before passing, it reverses motion and descends.

The take-out conveyor 4 has a driving roller 42 at the rear of a conveyor frame 41, and a rotating plate 43 whose tip rotates diagonally downward at the front of the conveyor frame 41.
An endless belt 44 is wound and stretched between the driving roller 42 and the rotating shaft 45 of the driving roller 42 is supported on the bearing part 46 of the machine frame 1.
5 is connected to an actuation mechanism 47 to form a bent neck portion 48 which is inclined downwardly at the tip of the conveyor. The operating mechanism 47 includes a cylinder 49 attached to the tip of the conveyor frame 41, an arm 50 protruding from the end of the rotating plate 43, and the arm 50 and the piston 51 of the cylinder 49 connected together. , when the piston 51 moves forward, the rotating plate 43 including the belt 44 rotates in a bent neck shape, and the front wall 6 in the top plate 6
1, and when the piston 51 moves forward, it returns to its original state.

However, when the top plate 6 carrying the sweet bread moves on the conveyor 2 and the forward end of the top plate 6 reaches the take-out conveyor 4, the bent neck portion 48 of the take-out conveyor 4 bends diagonally downward. Since the leading end abuts near the front wall 61 on the top plate 6 which is being moved and the top plate 6 continues to move, the sweet breads in the front row are transferred from the neck folding part 48 to the take-out conveyor 4 side. Simultaneously with or slightly delayed from the operation of the neck folding portion 48, the lifting mechanism 3
works rising. At this time, the rails 24 and the chain 23 raise the supported top plate 6 by a predetermined degree, and in conjunction with this lifting action, the neck-folded portion 48 returns to its original state, and therefore the take-out conveyor 4 moves the top plate 6 upward by a predetermined degree. 6
On the other hand, it has a gentle scooping angle that is suitable for scooping out sweet bread to achieve smooth removal.

All the sweet breads on the top plate 6 are removed from the conveyor 4.
At the same time, the lifting mechanism 3 moves downward, and the top plate rear wall 62 lowers and passes the take-out conveyor 4, and the same operation is performed when the next top plate is carried in. The take-out conveyor 4 is connected to a conveyor that is continuous with the packaging machine, and the transport conveyor 2 is connected to a top plate take-out conveyor.

<Effects of the invention> As described above, the present invention has a conveyor that conveys the top plate on which sweet bread is placed, and a take-out conveyor that is disposed above the conveyor and whose tip is inclined close to the top plate. In the depanner device, the conveyor is provided with a conveying part that can be raised and lowered to raise the top plate at the sweet bread removal position by a predetermined degree,
Since the take-out conveyor has a bent neck portion bent diagonally downward at its tip, the take-out conveyor comes into contact with the front wall of the top plate near the front wall of the top plate due to the movement of the neck bent portion. Sweet breads can be arranged on the entire surface, thereby eliminating space loss. Also,
Since the top plate corresponding to the sweet bread removal position is raised by a predetermined degree, the scooping angle of the take-out conveyor relative to the top plate becomes a gentle angle suitable for scooping.
It has the effect of achieving the intended purpose, such as smoothing the take-out operation and eliminating deformation or damage to the sweet bread.
