By actuating the rodless cylinder 59, the rod receiving support means 31 and 32 are moved up and down in the direction Z.

  The conveying means 10 includes a pair of endless chains 62 that are juxtaposed and run in the Y direction. The ends 6 and 7 of the basket 4 from the transfer means 9 from which the sausage 2 is suspended are connected to the pair of endless chains 62. And the bag 4 is conveyed in the Y direction along with the traveling of the pair of endless chains 62.

  In the transfer device 1 for the hanging rod such as sausage having such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 in particular, the rod receiving support means 31 and 32 returned from the conveying means 10 onto the rod relay supporting means 8 are manually or In order to receive the rod 4 already supplied on the rod relay support means 8 by the rod supply means 5, the rotary actuator 43 is operated and the hooks 35 are rotated in the R2 direction, as shown in FIGS. The receiving concave surface 41 of the hook 35 is brought just below the ends 6 and 7 of the flange 4 and the ends 6 and 7 are slightly raised so that the ends 6 and 7 supported by the respective receivers 25 are It is supported by the receiving concave surface 41 of the hook 35. In this state, the rotary actuator 22 is actuated to rotate the arm 24 in the R1 direction, so that one of the receivers 25 is moved from the transfer path to the conveying means 10 of the flange 4 and the loop 2A as shown in FIGS. fall back.

  Thus, the pair of scissors receiving support means 31 and 32 receives and supports the scissors 4 from which the sausage 2 is suspended from the scissors relay support means 8 at both ends 6 and 7. Thereafter, when the reciprocating drive means 50 is actuated, the movable base 52 travels in the direction X as shown in FIG. 11, and the sausage 2 is suspended along with the support mechanism 45 and the hook receiving support means 31 and 32. The fired 4 is also traveled in the direction X, transferred to a predetermined position on the transport path 33, and stopped. The saddle relay support means 8 operates the rotary actuator 22 again to rotate the arm 24 in the R1 direction after the saddle 4 that suspends the sausage 2 travels in the direction X by the moving means 34, and rotates the arm 24 in the R1 direction. As shown in FIG. 4, one receiving member 25 is returned to its original position to prepare for the next supply of the heel 4 from the hand or the heel supply means 5.

  Referring to FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, the hook receiving portion 55a of the lifting and lowering arm 55 waits for the passage of the loop 2A at the lower position of the loop 2A transferred toward the predetermined position, and the passage of the loop 2A. Later, the lifting / lowering turning arm 55 is turned in the R3 direction and raised toward the position directly below the hook 4 on the hook 35. When the eaves receiving portion 55a finishes rising, the eaves receiving support means 31 and 32 that have stopped at the predetermined position on the transport path 33 rotate their hooks 35 in the upward R2 direction, Release the support of parts 6 and 7. The hook receiving portion 55a supports both ends 6 and 7 of the hook 4 by receiving both ends 6 and 7 of the hook 4 dropped from the hook 35 at the rising end position.

  When the hook 35 of the heel receiving support means 31 and 32 is rotated upward and returned to the original position, the reciprocating means 46 is operated to move the heel receiving support means 31 and 32 in the direction X, thereby supporting the heel receiving support. The means 31 and 32 return to their original positions on the saddle relay support means 8 shown in FIG.

  When the endless chain 62 having a sufficient space for delivering the rod 4 arrives, the lowering means 53 rotates the lifting / lowering rotation arm 55 in the downward R4 direction and stops at the rising end position. The lower part 55a is lowered to a position below the endless chain 62, and the eaves 4 supported by the eaves receiving part 55a are placed on the endless chain 62 traveling in the Y direction, and the eaves receiving part 55a is moved by the endless chain 62 traveling. The support by is released, and it is conveyed in the Y direction. Thereafter, the up-and-down rotation arm 55 is rotated in the R5 direction, and the hook receiving portion 55a is again placed on standby at the position below the loop 2A.

  Next, the operation of the apparatus 1 in which the reciprocating means 46 is provided with the lowering means 57 of another aspect will be described with reference to FIG. The lowering means 57 stopped at a predetermined position on the conveying path 33, when the endless chain 62 having a sufficient space for delivering the rod 4 arrives, like the lowering means 53 of the previous example, the rodless cylinder 59 is operated to lower both end portions 6 and 7 of the rod 4 supported by the receiving and supporting means 31 and 32 to the position closest to the upper portion of the endless chain 62 via the suspension mechanism 49. When the hook 4 reaches the position closest to the upper part of the endless chain 62, the rotary actuator 43 of the hook receiving support means 31 and 32 operates to rotate the hook 35 upward in the R2 direction. The cage 4 released from the support by the hook 35 is placed on an endless chain 62 that travels in the Y direction and is conveyed in the Y direction. In this way, since the delivery time of the basket 4 to the conveying means 10 can be advanced, the return of the receiving support means 31 and 32, which will be described later, to the saddle relay support means 8 can be accelerated.

  Since the hook 35 is rotated to pass the collar 4 to the endless chain 62, even if the hook 35 is on the downstream side of the conveying direction Y with respect to the collar 4, the hook 35 is transferred to the downstream direction of the collar 4 passed to the endless chain 62. Does not interfere with the transport of In the case where the hook 35 is an apparatus having an upstream side in the transport direction Y with respect to the hook 4, the hook 35 is not rotated and the hook 35 is moved by the endless chain 62. Support may be released.

  After delivery of the opposite ends 6 and 7 of the kite 4 to the transport unit 10 by the kite receiving support means 31 and 32, the lowering unit 57 operates the rodless cylinder 59 to raise the suspension mechanism 49 to return to the original position. In addition, the rodless cylinder 51 is operated to move the movable base 52 in the direction X to return the rod receiving support means 31 and 32 to their original positions shown in FIG.

  In any of the transfer means 9 having the lowering means 53 and the transfer means 9 having the lowering means 57, the above operation is repeated each time the basket receiving support means 31 and 32 return to their original positions. If the return of the transfer means 9 is accelerated and the hook 4 is not yet supplied to the hook relay support means 8, the supply of the hook 4 is waited, and the above operation is performed on the hook 4 once supplied and placed. Repeated.

  The conveying means 10 conveys the basket 4 in which the sausage 2 received from the basket receiving support means 31 and 32 in each row is suspended in the direction Y and conveys it downstream of the conveying path 33.

  In the above-described sanitary hanger transfer device 1, the eaves relay support means 8 takes over the eaves 4 manually or from the eaves supply means 5 to the transfer means 9. It is not necessary to synchronize the transfer cycle of No. 4, and even if a delay occurs in the transfer cycle of the kite 4, there is no need to delay the supply cycle of the kite 4 in accordance with the delayed transfer cycle of the kite 4, and thus the apparatus The productivity can be improved by increasing the operation rate of 1.

  In the transfer means 9, the basket 4 on which the sausage 2 is suspended is received and supported by the bowl receiving support means 31 and 32 at both ends 6 and 7, and the bowl 4 is supported by the bridge relay support means 8 at both ends 6 and 7. The cantilever 4 is cantilevered so as to support the both ends 6 and 7 and move on the conveying path 33 while maintaining the direction in which the trough 4 extends when supported by 7, that is, the direction parallel to the direction X. The sausage 2 or the casket 4 can be prevented from falling during the transfer, and a large space is not required for the transport of the casket. The sausage suspension rod 4 can be moved to the transport path 33 without manual operation in order to receive and support the rod 4 supported by the both ends 6 and 7, thus automating and saving labor. Suitable for.

  In the transfer device 1, the sausage suspended rod 4 is transferred from the rod supply means 5 to the conveying device 10 while maintaining the support of both ends 6 and 7 of the rod 4, so that the position of the rod 4 can be defined. It becomes a simple structure which does not require a special mechanism for position definition.

  In the kite relay support means 8 described above, one kite 4 is placed and supported, but instead of the kite 4 by the transport means 9, the kite is manually or by the kite supply means 5. When the supply cycle of 4 is early, a plurality of baskets 4 are supplied and placed on the bridge relay support means 8 so that the transfer means 9 receives and transfers only one of the poles 4. good. In this way, even if a situation occurs in which the supply cycle of the basket 4 is delayed with respect to the transfer cycle of the basket 4, the delay of the transfer cycle of the basket 4 by the transfer means 9 can be avoided.

  Since the saddle relay support means 8 moves backward from the transfer path of the saddle 4 and the loop 2A to the conveying means 10, the operation of the saddle receiving support means 31 and 32 becomes simple and compact. Furthermore, since both ends 6 and 7 of the basket 4 that suspends the sausage 2 are placed on the hook 35 that can be reciprocated and supported by the hook 35, the reception of the basket 4 from the relay relay support means 8, and Delivery of the basket 4 to the lowering means 53 or the conveying means 10 can be achieved with a simple operation.

  The rotation means 20, the rotation means 36, the reciprocation drive means 50, the rotation means 54, and the reciprocation drive means 58 are not limited to those using air as a drive source, but are an electric motor / electric actuator or a hydraulic motor / hydraulic actuator. Other known means such as the above may be used.

  In the transfer means 9, the hooks 35 are rotated in the R 2 direction so that both ends 6 and 7 of the hook 4 are scooped up by the hooks 35, and the hook 4 is received by the hooks 35 at both ends 6 and 7. Instead of this, in addition to the retreat of one receiver 25 by the rotation of the arm 24 in the R1 direction, the other receiver 25 is also retracted. The supported end portions 6 and 7 may be transferred to the receiving concave surface 41 of each hook 35.
