Movable hopper mounted on stick pouch manufacturing equipment

The present invention relates to a movable hopper mounted on a stick pouch manufacturing apparatus.

By configuring such a hopper to run on the stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, it is possible to lower the hopper is usually provided on the top of the large stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, so that the maintenance of the hopper or to replace the supplies in the new The present invention relates to a movable hopper mounted on a stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, which enables easy operation when performing a task such as filling.

A pouch is a small pouch that is used to store various items. For this reason, health functional foods and drugs in liquid or powder form may be stored.

In connection with such a pouch, a stick type is commonly referred to as a stick pouch, for example, a pouch for storing mixed coffee.

The stick pouch is manufactured by a process of sealing and cutting the pouch after supplying the powder to the inside of the pouch roll and the hopper organically driven by the manufacturing apparatus formed as shown in FIG. do.

At this time, the hopper is configured on the top of the device for powder supply as described above. These hoppers have the shape of a tubular cylinder with one mouth larger than the other.

Initially, it was used to prevent separation at the time of concrete pouring or to embed it in a specific place of concrete. In recent years, it has been used to concentrate various items. However, in recent years, a mechanical device for supplying powder or liquid and packing Hopper is also used in the situation.

Such hoppers have been developed in the related art, for example, Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-1998-033093 and the like, and have recently been installed and used in various forms in mechanical devices.

Such a machine is typically configured with a hopper on the uppermost side as shown in FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings. This is because the provision of the powder into the pouch must be prioritized.

For such hoppers, the contents of the interior are filled, or periodical maintenance and cleaning are required. In particular, in order to fill the contents of the hopper, a worker lifts a bag or a container containing the contents and lifts the contents into a mechanical device. After the line, he works by pouring the contents into the hopper.

In this case, various safety problems, such as the risk of carrying a heavy article and working unstable at a high position, have arisen.

Applicant has come to devise a way to lower the hopper as a way to overcome this problem.

Regarding the technique of moving the hopper, the hopper conveying apparatus of the injection molding machine is described in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-1999-0058603.

The above technique relates to an injection molding machine for molding a plastic mold product, and more particularly, to a transfer device of a hopper filled with a raw resin supplied into a heating cylinder.

The injection molding machine is provided with a rail on the upper surface of the support plate to which the hopper is coupled, the rail is coupled to the transfer plate for sliding in the transverse direction, the lower end of the hopper is fixed to the upper surface of the transfer plate. A rack gear is installed at one side of the transfer plate, and a pinion gear for moving the rack gear is installed at the support plate. Therefore, when the user moves the hopper to replace the remaining amount of raw material contained in the hopper, the hopper is easily moved by simply rotating the pinion gear, so that the work of replacing the raw material resin is simple and the working time is long. It will be greatly shortened. In addition, as the hopper is transported while being supported by the rail in the process of transferring the hopper, the risk of overturning the hopper is fundamentally prevented.

However, the above technique is different from the technique proposed by the present applicant who intends to lower the height as a structure to transfer the hopper on a straight line through the rack and the gear.

On the other hand, as a technology for adjusting the height of the hopper configuration, Patent Publication No. 10-1745782 describes an industrial vacuum cleaner having a height adjusting means.

The technique relates to an industrial vacuum cleaner having a height adjusting means, comprising: a cover, a drum body provided below the cover, and an hopper provided to collect foreign matters under the drum body. And a pair of coupling portions formed on the lower outer circumferential surface of the drum body, and installed on the pair of coupling portions, and further including height adjusting means for adjusting a height of the industrial cleaner. A lower frame mounted on the lower frame and an upper surface of the lower frame, and a pair of vertical frames each having guide holes formed thereon, cylinders mounted on the pair of vertical frames, and installed on the pair of upper vertical guide frames; The moving rod further comprises a pair of coupling portions of the drum body and the cylinder rod end, the movable rod is a pair of coupling A first moving rod fixed to the lower end and the cylinder rod end and moving along the guide hole; and a second moving rod installed on the pair of coupling parts and moving along the guide hole. The moving rod may further include a first moving part including a first moving part having a guide part moving along a guide hole, a second moving part coupled to correspond to the first moving part, and passing through the first moving member. And a fixing pin provided to fix the pair of coupling parts and a nut fixing the fixing pin, wherein the second moving rod includes a first moving part including a guide part moving along a guide hole, and the first moving part. A second moving member further including a second moving part coupled to and corresponding to the moving part, and a function of fixing the pair of coupling parts through the second moving member and fixing the industrial cleaner at a predetermined position; Pressurization It further comprises a fixing pin and a nut for fixing the fixing pin, the elastic member is installed between the second moving portion and the pressing portion of the fixing pin, collecting the various foreign substances generated in the drum body to the bottom of the hopper. A collection pack hopper further includes a collection pack hopper installed to be easily collected by a pack, wherein the collection pack hopper is fixed to an end portion on an outer circumferential surface of the hopper, and a connection hopper having a bent portion formed at a lower end thereof, and seated on the bent portion of the connection hopper. It further comprises a collection pack tray.

In addition, in relation to a technology capable of adjusting the height of the catchment port, which is similar to a hopper, Patent Publication No. 10-2008-0038949 discloses a height adjustment catcher for road installation.

The above technique is divided into an upper collecting frame and a lower fixing frame, the upper collecting frame and the lower fixing frame to form an inner cylinder tube and an outer cylinder tube of different diameters to correspond to each other to overlap (insert) the inner cylinder tube and The screw for bolts from the inner cylinder tube to the outer cylinder tube side in the state in which the outer cylinder tube is overlapped, and the drainage pipe is inserted into the space formed between the inner cylinder tube and the outer cylinder tube to hang on the bolt. The adjustable catchment structure, which can be installed while easily adjusting the overlapping state of the inner cylinder tube and the outer cylinder tube formed in the upper collecting frame and the lower fixing frame according to the height of the installed form, the flange of the lower fixing frame such as nail When the concrete is poured by fixing it to the formwork by fixing means, It can be installed in a fixed position to prevent the circumference, and at the top of the drain pipe inserted into the space formed between the inner cylinder tube and the outer cylinder tube, a plurality of inserting holes of vertical inserting hole and upward tilting hole are arranged at regular intervals ( By forming the bolt spacing), the concrete is hardened to remove the formwork, and then the drain pipe can be easily installed by inserting and hooking the bolt screwed from the inner cylinder tube to the outer cylinder tube side.

Before describing the present invention with reference to the drawings, it is not shown or specifically described for the matters that are not necessary to reveal the gist of the present invention, that is, those skilled in the art can obviously add. Make a note.

The present invention relates to a movable hopper mounted on a stick pouch manufacturing apparatus.

By configuring such a hopper to run on the stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, it is possible to lower the hopper is usually provided on the top of the large stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, so that the maintenance of the hopper or to replace the supplies in the new The present invention relates to a movable hopper mounted on a stick pouch manufacturing apparatus, which enables easy operation when performing a task such as filling.

Figure 1 shows a configuration in which the movable hopper mounted on the stick pouch manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention is mounted on the machine. 2 and 3 show an example in which the movable hopper mounted on the stick pouch manufacturing apparatus according to FIG. 1 is operated.

4 is an enlarged view of one side of FIG. 2.

In the following description of the movable hopper, the hopper-equipped machine can apply any machine predictable by a person skilled in the art with reference to the drawings, and such a machine is not limited since it is not the main object of the present invention. Therefore, detailed description of the hopper will be omitted.

However, the hopper-equipped machine includes a normal mounting region 1 and a conveyed region 2. In this case, the normal mounting region 1 means an area where the hopper is originally installed, and the transferred region 2 is configured on one side of the machine and is configured at a lower position than the normal mounting region 1.

The top mounting area 1 is configured with a direction in which the hopper is to be movable, and is configured with a first rail 20 for supporting the hopper at ordinary times and for transferring at the time of transfer.

The first rail 20 is composed of one or more than one to support the trolley 30 on which the hopper 10 is mounted. At this time, the trolley 30 includes a wheel coupled to the rail 20 downward, the wheel is formed so that the groove is formed along the circumferential direction concave in the inner side to be seated on the rail 20 can be guided The number may be one or more for one first rail. However, it may be preferable that two or more are configured for stable support.

As described above, the trolley 30 may be seated thereon, and the lower portion of the hopper 10 may be exposed through the trolley 30 so that the internal supply of the hopper 10 may be supplied to the machine. Can be. However, the exposed lower portion of the hopper 10 to have a height that does not exceed the wheel of the bogie 30. This is to prevent the hopper 10 from interfering with the transfer of the bogie 30.

In this way, the exposed lower side of the hopper 10 and the portion connected to the hopper of the machine has a distance separated, which allows the selective opening and closing through the valve configuration on the exposed lower side of the hopper 10 during transport The supply inside the hopper 10 may not be discharged, and a separate pipe may be padded so that an exposed lower side of the hopper 10 and a portion connected to the hopper of the machine may be connected.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the stopper 21 may be configured at the first end side of the opposite direction based on the transfer direction of the hopper 10 in the space between the first rails 20. The stopper 21 has a height that is higher than or equal to the balance 30, so that the balance 30 does not have a motion exceeding the stopper 21.

In addition, the height adjusting unit 40 may be configured on the conveyed area 2 to adjust the height. The height adjustment unit 40 may be configured as, for example, a cylinder, but is not necessarily limited thereto.

The upper side of the height adjusting portion 40 may be configured in a direction perpendicular to the height adjusting portion 40, the guide plate 50.

At this time, the adjustment of the height adjustment portion 40, it may be configured to rise until the guide plate portion 50 has the same height as the normal mounting area (1) of the machine.

This may be controlled by the height of the algorithm adjusted by the system, the height may be adjusted and controlled through the sensor.

For example, the sensor is a non-contact sensor, the transmitter is configured to emit a laser or light source in the normal mounting area (1), one of the side of the guide plate 50, the emitted source (laser or light source) of the transmitter is incident Receiving a receiver on one side to be received, if the reception is detected by the control unit (configuration provided in the machine or a separate configuration) can be made to stop the height rise.

As another example, the receiver is composed of two or more in the height direction, and stores the value according to the interval of each receiver in the control unit. For example, a total of three receivers n, n + 1, n + 2, and when the source is received at the receiver of n + 1, the upper surface of the normal mounting region 1 and the upper surface of the guide plate 50 are in a straight line. In the merchant position, if the source is received in the receiver of n or the receiver of n + 2, the height adjuster 40 can be controlled by a value corresponding to the interval.

In addition, the control unit may temporarily store the values received at the receiver for a predetermined time (for example, 1 minute). Thus, if no source is received at any receiver, the control unit may store the value of the last received receiver. On the basis, the receiver to control the height adjuster 40 until the reception of the source is detected again.

For example, if the receiver has a total of three from the top, n, n + 1, n + 2, and the last received receiver is n, the height adjuster is arbitrarily lowered so that the source can be received at the receiver of n, After receiving, the height is controlled to n + 1.

The second rail 51 is formed on the upper surface of the guide plate 50. The second rail 51 is positioned in a straight line with the first rail 20 when the guide plate 50 is in a straight line with the normal mounting region 1.

Accordingly, when the guide plate 50 is raised by the height adjusting unit 40, the hopper 10 is moved from the normal mounting region 1 to the second rail 51 on the guide plate 50, By lowering the height of the height adjusting part 40 and placing the hopper 10 on the conveyed area 2, which is lower than the normal mounting area 1, the maintenance of the hopper becomes easy. Can be.

In this case, the movement of the hopper 10 may be manual or may be made automatically by configuring the wheel to be driven by the motor and controlling the motor by the controller.

However, according to design conditions, it may be configured as shown in FIG. 5 of the accompanying drawings.

It is a figure explaining the movable hopper attached to the stick pouch manufacturing apparatus which has a rail structure which concerns on other embodiment.

This is configured such that the length of the first rail 20 has a length exceeding the normal mounting region 1, but the first rail 20 has a shape in which the inner side of the '^' cross section is hollow, The second rail 51 to have a size and shape corresponding to the inner hollow shape of the first rail 20, when the guide plate 50 is raised, while touching the first rail 20 The first rail 20 stops to function as a stopper for the lift, and after the completion of the lift, the first rail 20 and the second rail 51 may be coupled to each other so that the rail may continue.

Alternatively, an end portion coupled to the first rail 20 of the second rail 51 may have a size and a shape corresponding to the inner hollow of the first rail 20, and the other second rails 51 By having the same size as the one rail 20, it is possible to enable the flexible movement of the trolley 30.

However, although not shown in the drawings, the area of the excess length with respect to the first rail 20 of FIG. 5 may be rotated outward with respect to the area of the other first rail 20. At this time, the second rail 51 has a length that does not interfere with the rotation of the first rail 20 (for example, the length of the second rail 51 coupled to the first rail 20 described above is Omit configuration).

For example, an incision is configured to be separated from the other first rail 20 with respect to the excess area of the first rail 20, and a configuration such as a hinge of one side and the other side of the first rail 20 that is cut. It is configured to be rotatable by connecting.

At this time, the connected hinge may be configured to detect the approach and the touch of the guide plate 50 is configured on the lower surface.

And, the electromagnet can be configured on the engaging surface of the cut first rail 20. Such an electromagnet has magnetic force by being supplied with power by a controller. This supply of power is to be performed when the access and contact of the guide plate 50 in the sensor of the hinge is made.

Accordingly, as the guide plate 50 is raised to position the first rail 20 and the second rail 51 in a straight line, when the hinge recognizes the guide plate 50, magnetic force is applied to the electromagnet and folded. A part of the first rail 50 in a state is unfolded by magnetic force so that the overall shape of the first rail 20 is in a straight line. Even if the unfolding of the first rail 20 is not performed due to a malfunction, the first rail 20 may be unfolded while the cart 30 passes by the outward pivoting.

Alternatively, a groove and a protrusion may be configured on one surface of the first rail 20 that is brought into contact with each other, and the groove and the protrusion may be configured of an electromagnet. Accordingly, the grooves and the protrusions are coupled by magnetic force, so that even when the cut first rails 20 are unfolded and coupled, the wheels of the trolley 30 may have a straight line that can be smoothly moved.

What has been described above using the accompanying drawings, only the main matters of the present invention has been described, it is obvious that the various configurations within the technical scope is not limited to the configuration of the accompanying drawings of the present invention.
