Description

Conductor flow prevention conveyor system

[0001] The present invention relates to a conductor flow prevention conveyor system, and more particularly, to a conductor flow prevention conveyor system configured to prevent conductor flow and facilitate maintenance.

[0002] A brief overview of the slaughter process for animals used for food, such as cattle or pigs, includes the following processes: suffocation, bleeding, decapitation, washing, incision, cutting, weighing, grading, and pre-cooling.

[0003] This slaughter process is automating from manual slaughter to robotic slaughter. These automated slaughter systems feature a main conveyor that transports carcasses hung on hangers to each process, as well as an auxiliary conveyor that guides the carcass' movement and direction during transport.

[0004] For example, the belt section of an auxiliary conveyor supports the spine of the conductor and guides the conveyance of the conductor according to the conveyance speed of the main conveyor. However, the belt section, which conveys the conductor while in contact with the conductor, has a problem in that it cannot properly convey the conductor due to moisture or oil on the conductor surface. In other words, slippage occurs between the belt section and the conductor, and the main conveyor and the belt section cannot convey the conductor at the same speed. In this process, the conductor conveyed along the conveyor may be distorted.

[0005] In addition, since the connecting parts of the conventional auxiliary conveyor are welded, micro-shocks due to welding irregularities may be applied to the conductor during the process of conveying the conductor.

[0006] Figure 1 is an example diagram showing a state in which a conductor is twisted by a conventional auxiliary conveyor.

[0007] Figure 1 (a) is an example diagram showing a conductor being transported normally, and Figure 1 (b) is an example diagram showing a conductor that has been twisted due to slippage between the belt portion (1) provided on the auxiliary conveyor (10) and the conductor or due to welding irregularities on the conveyor.

[0008] As in (b) of Fig. 1, when the conductor is transported in a twisted state, the conductor may not be scanned normally, which may cause the slaughter robot to cut the conductor at an incorrect point. In addition, since the conventional auxiliary conveyor (10) is connected by welding, it is not easy to change the line of the auxiliary conveyor (10) when it is necessary to change the line of the auxiliary conveyor (10). In addition, since the integrated belt part (1) constituting the auxiliary conveyor (10) requires replacing the entire belt part (1) when the belt part (1) is damaged, the replacement work of the belt part (1) is complicated and the replacement cost is also high.

[0009] Therefore, various research and development are required for auxiliary conveyor systems that prevent twisting (flow) of conductors and facilitate conveyor line changes and belt replacement.

[0010] The technical task of the present invention to solve the above problems is to provide a conductor flow prevention conveyor system that prevents conductor flow and is easy to maintain.

[0011] In order to achieve the above technical task, one embodiment of the present invention provides a conductor flow prevention conveyor system including: a conveyor module having a plurality of belt sections connected to guide the transport of a conductor; a frame module having a plurality of frame sections connected to guide the movement of the conveyor module; and a power section installed in the frame module and providing power for the operation of the conveyor module, wherein a plurality of pressure protrusions for pressurizing and supporting a conductor are provided on the outer surface of the belt section.

[0012] In one embodiment of the present invention, the belt part may include a belt body having the pressing protrusion provided on the outer surface; a first guide wing connected to the belt body at a lower portion and spaced apart from the belt body to form a first movement guide space for guiding the movement direction of the belt body moving along the frame portion; a second guide wing that forms a pair with the first guide wing, is spaced apart from the lower portion of the first guide wing, and is spaced apart from the belt body to form a second movement guide space; a power transmission unit that connects the spaced apart first and second guide wings, forms a power transmission space into which a power gear provided in the power unit is inserted, and receives power from the power gear; a coupling pin that is inserted and coupled into a first pin coupling hole formed in the first guide wing and a second pin coupling hole formed in the second guide wing; and a connecting link unit that is connected to the power transmission unit and has a pin through hole into which the coupling pin is inserted.

[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, after power transmission of the power gear is performed through the power transmission unit, an anti-jamming groove may be formed in the power transmission unit to prevent the rotating power gear and the power transmission unit from getting caught.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the belt portion may be made of a thermoplastic resin material.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pressurizing protrusion protrudes from the outer surface of the belt portion at a predetermined interval, and the pressurizing protrusion may be formed in a cone shape or a vertical bar shape.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, the frame part includes a first frame having first movement guide bars inserted into the first movement guide space on both sides and guiding the movement of the belt part; a second frame having second movement guide bars inserted into the second movement guide space on both sides and guiding the movement of the belt part, which is provided on the lower portion of the first frame and guiding the movement of the belt part; a connecting frame connecting the first frame and the second frame with a fastening member; and a support frame adjusting the height of the first frame and the second frame from a bottom surface, wherein a plurality of first discharge holes forming perforated holes spaced apart at a predetermined interval are formed in the first frame, and a plurality of second discharge holes forming perforated holes spaced apart at a predetermined interval are formed in the second frame, and the second frame is formed to be inclined downward toward the second discharge holes so that foreign substances are discharged through the second discharge holes, and the connecting frame is connected to the frame parts arranged adjacent to each other so that the plurality of frame parts can be connected.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the power unit includes a motor unit that provides power; a drive pulley that transmits the power provided from the motor unit to the power transmission unit; and a driven pulley that is spaced apart from the drive pulley and guides the movement of the belt unit, and the drive pulley and the driven pulley are provided with power gear teeth that transmit power to the belt unit at a predetermined interval along the circumference, and the motor unit can control the belt unit at a conveying speed corresponding to a conveying speed of a main conveyor that conveys a conductor caught on a hook.

[0018] The effects of the conductor flow prevention conveyor system according to the present invention described above are as follows.

[0019] According to the present invention, the belt portion is provided with a plurality of pressurized protrusions protruding from the belt body, thereby preventing slippage of the conveyed conductor. Consequently, twisting (flow) of the conductor is prevented during the conveyance process, enabling the conductor to be accurately cut by the slaughter robot.

[0020] According to the present invention, the frame module comprises a plurality of frame sections that can be detachably attached to each other by fastening members (bolts, nuts). Accordingly, workers can form conveyor lines in various configurations to suit on-site conditions.

[0021] According to the present invention, a conveyor module is connected to multiple belt sections. Therefore, if, for example, one of the multiple belt sections is damaged, the worker only needs to replace the corresponding belt section, simplifying belt maintenance.

[0022] The effects of the present invention are not limited to the effects described above, and should be understood to include all effects that can be inferred from the detailed description of the present invention or the composition of the invention described in the claims.

[0037] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0039] As shown in FIGS. 2 to 10, the conductor flow prevention conveyor system (1000) assists the main conveyor (not shown) that transports the conductor (not shown) hung on the hanger to each process, thereby assisting in preventing shaking of the conductor, twisting of the conductor, and transport direction during the process of transporting the conductor.

[0040] Such a conductor flow prevention conveyor system (1000) may include a conveyor module (1100), a frame module (1200), and a power unit (1300).

[0041] Here, the conveyor module (1100) guides the transport of the conductor.

[0042] A conveyor module (1100) such as this is provided with a plurality of belt sections (100), and the plurality of belt sections (100) are connected to each other to form a single connected belt shape and guide the transport of the conductor.

[0043] This belt portion (100) may include a belt body (110), a first guide wing (120), a second guide wing (130), a power transmission portion (140), a coupling pin (150), and a connecting link portion (160).

[0044] Here, the belt body (110) forms the outer shape of the belt portion (100).

[0045] The outer surface of the belt body (110) is provided with a pressurized protrusion (101) that is tightly fixed to the conductor and prevents the conductor from flowing. This pressurized protrusion (101) is configured to protrude from the outer surface of the belt body (110). In one embodiment of the present invention, the pressurized protrusion (101) may have a cone shape and protrude from the belt body (110). Here, the pressurized protrusion (101) is not limited to a cone shape, but may be configured in various shapes such as a triangular pyramid or a square pyramid.

[0046] In this way, the pressing protrusions (101) coupled to the belt body (110) are provided in multiple numbers at predetermined intervals. For example, fat lumps generated from the conductor may solidify and become stuck between the pressing protrusions (101). Such fat lumps stuck between the pressing protrusions (101) must be removed through washing. Here, since the pressing protrusions (101) forming a cone shape are not formed in a closed shape such as a wave shape or a circle, the fat lumps stuck between the pressing protrusions (101) can be easily removed through washing.

[0047] And the first guide wing (120) is spaced apart from the inner surface of the belt body (110), and the lower part of the first guide wing (120) is connected to the belt body (110).

[0048] The first guide wing (120) forms a first movement guide space (121) into which the first movement guide bar (212) provided in the frame portion (200) is inserted together with the belt body (110). In the present invention, when explaining the combined structure of the conveyor module (1100) and the frame module (1200), the frame portion (200) having a straight shape will be explained as an example.

[0049] In this way, in the process of the belt part (100) being moved by receiving rotational power from the power part (1300), the belt part (100) can be moved while being guided by the first movement guide bar (212). That is, the belt body (110) and the first guide wing (120) are spaced apart from each other and form a first movement guide space (121) into which the first movement guide bar (212) is inserted, so that the belt part (100) can be moved along the longitudinal direction of the frame part (200).

[0050] And the second guide wing (130) forms a pair with the first guide wing (120). The second guide wing (130) is provided below the first guide wing (120), but is spaced apart from the first guide wing (120) by a predetermined distance.

[0051] The second guide wing (130) is spaced apart from the first guide wing (120) to face the inner surface of the belt body (110), but the second guide wing (130) is connected to the belt body (110).

[0052] These second guide wings (130) are spaced apart from the belt body (110) and form a second movement guide space (131) into which the second movement guide bar (222) provided in the frame portion (200) is inserted. In this way, in the process of the belt portion (100) being moved by receiving rotational power from the power portion (1300), the belt portion (100) can be moved under the guidance of the second movement guide bar (222).

[0053] In other words, since the belt portion (100) has a first movement guide space (121) and a second movement guide space (131) formed at the upper and lower portions, into which a movement guide bar provided in the frame portion (200) is inserted, the belt portion (100) can be stably moved along the longitudinal direction of the frame portion (200).

[0054] And the power transmission unit (140) is configured to connect the first guide wing (120) and the second guide wing (130) that are spaced apart. This power transmission unit (140) comes into contact with the power gear (621) coupled to the drive pulley (620) during the process of the drive pulley (620) rotating, and transmits the power transmitted from the drive pulley (620) to the belt unit (100). Accordingly, the conveyor module (1100) in which a plurality of belt units (100) are connected to form a single belt can rotate.

[0055] Here, the power transmission unit (140) connects the spaced first guide vanes (120) and second guide vanes (130), and is formed to form a power transmission space (141) in which a power gear tooth (621) is inserted. Accordingly, the power gear tooth (621) rotates by the rotation of the drive pulley (620) while the power gear tooth (621) is inserted into the power transmission space (141), and can pressurize and push the power transmission unit (140). In this way, the power gear teeth (621) provided in plurality at predetermined intervals along the circumference of the drive pulley (620) pressurize the power transmission unit (140) during the rotation process, thereby transmitting the rotational power provided from the drive pulley (620) to the belt unit (100).

[0056] Here, the power transmission unit (140) may have an anti-jamming groove (142) formed in the power transmission unit (140) to prevent jamming between the power gear (621) and the power transmission unit (140) during the process of the power gear (621) leaving the power transmission space (141) after power is transmitted from the rotating power gear (621). This anti-jamming groove (142) is formed, for example, to prevent the belt unit (100) from rotating unnaturally due to jamming of the rotating power gear (621) with the power transmission unit (140) during the process of the power gear (621) rotating around the central axis of the drive pulley (620) being inserted into the power transmission space (141) and pressurizing the power transmission unit (140).

[0057] And the coupling pin (150) is coupled to the first guide wing (120) and the second guide wing (130) that are spaced apart. One end of the coupling pin (150) can be inserted into the first pin coupling hole (122) formed in the first guide wing (120), and the other end of the coupling pin (150) can be inserted into the second pin coupling hole (132) formed in the second guide wing (130).

[0058] And the connecting link part (160) is connected to the power transmission part (140). A pin penetration hole (161) into which a coupling pin (150) is inserted is formed in this connecting link part (160), so that the belt parts (100) arranged adjacently can be connected to each other. Specifically, for the convenience of explanation, the two belt parts (100) arranged adjacently will be divided into a first belt part and a second belt part and explained. If we briefly look at the process of combining the first belt part and the second belt part, first, the connecting link part (160) provided in the first belt part is placed in a link insertion space (102) spaced apart between the first guide wing (120) and the second guide wing (130) into which the coupling pin (150) is inserted in the second belt part. At this time, the second belt part is in a state before the coupling pin (150) is combined.

[0059] Next, the coupling pin (150) is passed through the second pin coupling hole (132) of the second belt section, and then passed through the pin penetration hole (161) formed in the connecting link section (160) of the first belt section, and then passed through the first pin coupling hole (122) of the second belt section, so that the first belt section and the second belt section, which are arranged adjacently, can be pin-coupled by the coupling pin (150).

[0060] In this way, the plurality of belt parts (100) are configured to be combined and separated through the above-mentioned process of combining the belt parts (100). Accordingly, if any one of the plurality of belt parts (100) is damaged, the worker can easily replace only the damaged belt part (100). Since the belt parts (100) are assembled, for example, when the conveyor line of the conveyor module (1100) is changed, the length can be adjusted in various ways according to the changed conveyor line.

[0061] In this way, the belt section (100) that guides the transport of the conductor may be made of a thermoplastic resin material suitable for food hygiene, such as plastic or polymer, for example. The belt section (100) made of such a thermoplastic resin material can transport the conductor hygienically without generating dust even when friction occurs with, for example, a metal material.

[0062] Meanwhile, the frame module (1200) is connected with a plurality of frame parts. The plurality of frame parts provided in the frame module (1200) may include, depending on the shape of the frame parts, for example, a straight frame part (200) forming a straight line, a curved frame part (300) forming a curve, a motor coupling frame part (400) to which a driving pulley (620) is coupled, and an end frame part (500) to which a driven pulley (630) is coupled. The straight frame part (200), the curved frame part (300), the motor coupling frame part (400), and the end frame part (500) may be detachably coupled to each other through fastening members (250) such as bolts and nuts.

[0063] Here, the motor coupling frame part (400) is provided with a driving pulley (620), and the end frame part (500) is provided with a driven pulley (630). The motor coupling frame part (400) and the end frame part (500) in which the driving pulley (620) and the driven pulley (630) are combined form a single belt shape and are configured to assist in changing the direction of the connected conveyor module (1100). In addition, the straight frame part (200) and the curved frame part (300) are arranged between the motor coupling frame part (400) and the end frame part (500) to guide the movement of the conveyor module (1100).

[0064] Such a frame module (1200) can be assembled in various configurations along with the conveyor module (1100) to suit the on-site situation, thereby forming a required conveyor line. Accordingly, for example, if a change in the conveyor line is required, the operator can easily change to the required conveyor line by selectively separating / combining the frame module (1200) and conveyor module (1100).

[0065] In the present invention, when explaining the configuration of a frame portion, the configuration of the frame portion will be specifically explained using a straight frame portion (200) having a straight shape as an example.

[0066] Such a frame portion (200) may include a first frame (210), a second frame (220), a connecting frame (230), and a support frame (240).

[0067] Here, the first frame (210) is provided on the upper part of the frame part (200).

[0068] This first frame (210) may include a first body (211), a first moving guide bar (212), and a first connecting fixing bar (213). Here, the first body (211) forms the outer shape of the first frame (210). A plurality of first discharge holes (214) in the form of long holes at predetermined intervals along the longitudinal direction of the first body (211) may be formed in this first body (211). Such first discharge holes (214) enable, for example, the easy introduction or discharge of washing water during the process of washing a conductor.

[0069] And the first moving guide bar (212) is provided on both sides of the first body (211). This first moving guide bar (212) is inserted into the first moving guide space (121) formed in the belt portion (100) to guide the movement of the belt portion (100).

[0070] And the first connecting fixing bar (213) is provided at the front end and the rear end of the first body (211), respectively. A first connecting hole (215) is formed in the first connecting fixing bar (213) into which a connecting member (250) is inserted. Accordingly, the first connecting fixing bar (213) can be coupled to a second frame (220) that forms a pair with the first frame (210) through a connecting frame (230). In addition, the frame portion (200) can also be coupled to another frame portion (200) that is arranged adjacent to it.

[0071] Meanwhile, the second frame (220) forms a pair with the first frame (210). The second frame (220) is provided at the bottom of the first frame (210).

[0072] A second frame (220) like this may include a second body (221), a second moving guide bar (222), and a second connecting fixing bar (223). Here, the second body (221) forms the outer shape of the second frame (220). A plurality of second discharge holes (224) in the form of long holes at predetermined intervals along the longitudinal direction of the second body (221) may be formed in the second body (221). Such second discharge holes (224) enable, for example, the easy introduction or discharge of washing water during the process of washing a conductor.

[0073] Here, the second body (221) in which the second discharge hole (224) is formed is inclined downward toward the second discharge hole (224). Accordingly, the washing water introduced into the interior of the second frame (220) does not accumulate within the second frame (220) and can be effectively discharged to the outside through the second discharge hole (224).

[0074] And the second movement guide bar (222) is provided on both sides of the second body (221). This second movement guide bar (222) is inserted into the second movement guide space (131) formed in the belt part (100) to guide the movement of the belt part (100).

[0075] And the second connecting fixing bar (223) is provided at the front and rear ends of the second body (221), respectively. A second connecting hole (225) is formed in the second connecting fixing bar (223) into which a fastening member (250) is inserted. Since the second connecting fixing bar (223) has a configuration corresponding to the first connecting fixing bar (213), a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0076] And the connecting frame (230) can connect the first frame (210) and the second frame (220) with a fastening member (250). This connecting frame (230) can also connect the adjacently arranged frame parts (200) to each other through the fastening member (250).

[0077] And the support frame (240) is configured to adjust the height of the frame portion (200) so that the first frame (210) and the second frame (220) are positioned at the required positions from the floor surface. Accordingly, the belt portion (100) supported on the frame portion (200) can guide the transport of the conductor while selectively adjusting the height of the frame portion (200) according to the conductor work process, such as, for example, a two-part conductor work or a conductor washing work.

[0078] Meanwhile, the power unit (1300) may include a motor unit (610), a driving pulley (620), and a driven pulley (630).

[0079] Here, the motor section (610) is configured to provide power to rotate the belt section (100) forming a connected belt shape.

[0080] The motor unit (610) is configured to transmit power to the drive pulley (620) provided at the bottom while being supported by the motor coupling frame unit (400). Accordingly, the drive pulley (620) rotated by the motor unit (610) transmits power to the belt unit (100), so that the belt unit (100) can be moved by the drive pulley (620).

[0081] Here, the motor unit (610) controls the conveying speed of the belt unit (100) so that the belt unit (100) moves at a conveying speed corresponding to the conveying speed of the main conveyor that conveys the conductor caught on the hook. That is, the conductor flow prevention conveyor system (1000) assists in conveying the conductor at the same conveying speed as the main conveyor, thereby preventing twisting (flow) of the conductor from occurring due to a difference in the conveying speeds of the main conveyor and the conductor flow prevention conveyor system (1000) during the process of conveying the conductor.

[0082] And the drive pulley (620) is provided with power gear teeth (621) that form a predetermined interval along the circumference. These power gear teeth (621) are inserted into the power transmission space (141) formed in the belt part (100) during the rotation process of the drive pulley (620) and ultimately transmit the power provided from the motor part (610) to the power transmission part (140). Accordingly, the belt part (100) can be moved by the rotation of the drive pulley (620). The drive rotation shaft (622) provided in the drive pulley (620) is supported by the motor coupling frame part (400), so that the drive pulley (620) can rotate.

[0083] And the driven pulley (630) guides the movement of the belt portion (100) together with the driving pulley (620). The driven pulley (630) is equipped with a power gear like the driving pulley (620) to guide the movement of the belt portion (100). The driven rotation shaft equipped on the driven pulley (630) is supported on the end frame portion (500), so that the driven pulley (630) can rotate.

[0084] Fig. 11 is a perspective view showing a belt portion according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0085] As shown in Fig. 11, the pressurizing protrusion (101') that prevents the flow of the conductor may be formed in a vertical bar shape. The pressurizing protrusion (101') coupled to the belt body (110) is provided in multiple numbers at predetermined intervals. In this way, the pressurizing protrusion (101') formed in a vertical bar shape can be easily cleaned even if a lump of fat generated from the conductor is caught between the pressurizing protrusions (101').
