Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, the packing device of Patent Document 2 can only hold 2 food items (cucumbers) at a time.
Therefore, in this boxing device, there is a possibility that productivity may be lowered when it is assumed that foods such as rice balls and sandwiches are packed into boxes.
[0009] In addition, although the boxing device of Patent Document 3 and the manipulator of Patent Document 4 can hold two or more (six) foods at a time, they hold the foods in a horizontally arranged state, so there is a problem in order to carry out the loading operation of the foods. And the problem of needing a wide working space

Embodiment approach

[0027] figure 1 It is a plan view which schematically shows the whole structure of the holding device 10 of the foodstuff 40 which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the holding device 10 for foodstuffs 40 is used for the loading operation of loading a plurality of foodstuffs 40 toward the tray 41 . In this embodiment, the case where the holding|maintenance apparatus 10 of the foodstuff 40 which concerns on this invention is comprised by the robot 11 is demonstrated. The robot 11 includes a pair of robot arms 13 , 13 . However, the holding device 10 of the foodstuff 40 is not limited to the case where it consists of the robot 11. As shown in FIG. In addition, the robot 11 is described as a horizontal articulated dual-arm robot, but a horizontal articulated type, a vertical articulated type, or the like can be used. The robot 11 can be installed in a limited space (for example, 610 mm×620 mm) equivalent to the size of a person.

Abstract

The food item holding device is for holding self-standing food items each having a front surface and a rear surface parallel to the front surface. The food item holding device is equipped with a holding unit for holding a plurality of food items so as to be lined up in a first direction and in an upright state with the front surfaces thereof facing the first direction. The holding unit has: multiple pairs of holding members arranged in the first direction and configured so as to respectively sandwich the multiple food items from both sides; and driving members capable of independently drivingthe respective pairs of holding members.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a holding device for food. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, devices for putting food into containers such as trays are known (see Patent Document 1 to Patent Document 3). In the food case loading device disclosed in Patent Document 1, the food is dropped from the conveyor to the transfer unit in a predetermined posture, and the food is sequentially stacked into the case while maintaining the standing posture. It is conceivable to pack foods such as rice balls and sandwiches into containers by using this food container loading device. Such foods are easily deformed, and once deformed by external force, the food cannot return to its original shape even if the external force is removed. Therefore, if the food is deformed by external force after falling, the commodity value will be damaged due to the deformation of the food. As a result, there is a concern that the ratio of defective products will increase, ...
