It does not pass through the passage hole.
[0030] そして、底壁上部に備えた底面旋回部材を旋回させると、粉粒体アーチが外力を 受けて崩れ、粉粒体アーチを構成して!/ヽた粉粒体が粉粒体通過孔を通過して底壁 の下方に落下し、すぐに新たな粉粒体アーチが形成されて粉粒体通過孔が閉塞さ れる。 [0030] Then, when the bottom swivel member provided at the upper part of the bottom wall is swung, the granular arch collapses due to external force and forms a granular arch! It passes through the hole and falls below the bottom wall, and a new granular arch is immediately formed, closing the granular passage hole.
[0031] ここで、一旦粉粒体アーチが崩れて再度粉粒体アーチが形成されるまでに粉粒体 通過孔から流出する粉粒体の量は極微量であるので、底面旋回部材を旋回させて いる間は微少量ずつの粉粒体を供給することができる。 [0032] [請求項 2の発明] [0031] Here, since the amount of the granular material flowing out from the granular material passage hole is very small before the granular material arch is collapsed and the granular material arch is formed again, the bottom turning member is swung.

However, it is prevented that the granular material passes through the granular material passage hole only by its own weight.
[0033] [請求項 3の発明] [0033] [Invention of claim 3]
請求項 3の発明によれば、底壁上部の底面旋回部材を旋回させると、底面旋回部 材から垂下して備えられた旋回脚部が粉粒体を撹拌し、粉粒体が塊になることを防 ぎながら、粉粒体アーチに外力を加えて粉粒体を粉粒体通過孔から底壁の下方に 落下させること力 Sでさる。 According to the invention of claim 3, when the bottom surface turning member at the upper part of the bottom wall is turned, the swivel leg part suspended from the bottom turning member stirs the powder and the powder becomes a lump. While preventing this, an external force is applied to the granule arch to drop the granule from the granule passage hole to the lower side of the bottom wall.
[0034] [請求項 4の発明] [0034] [Invention of claim 4]

[0043] [請求項 14の発明] [0043] [Invention of Claim 14]
請求項 14の発明に係る粉粒体供給装置によれば、底面旋回部材を比較的低速で 回転させた場合に、下端部と底壁との間隔が比較的小さい第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部は 、粉粒体アーチに外力を与えて崩す一方、下端部と底壁との間隔が比較的大きい第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部は、粉粒体アーチの上方を素通りするだけで粉粒体アーチを崩 す程の外力を与えることはない。よって、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部が粉粒体通過孔の 上方を通過したときだけ、粉粒体アーチが崩れて底壁の下方に落下する。 According to the granular material supply device of the invention of claim 14, when the bottom turning member is rotated at a relatively low speed, the first arch crushing leg portion having a relatively small distance between the lower end portion and the bottom wall is , While applying an external force to the granule arch and breaking it, the distance between the lower end and the bottom wall is relatively large. The second arch crushing leg only passes through the upper part of the granular arch, and does not give an external force to break the granular arch. Therefore, only when the first arch crushing leg passes above the granular material passage hole, the granular arch collapses and falls below the bottom wall.
[0044] これに対し、底面旋回部材を比較的高速で回転させた場合には、第 1のアーチ粉 砕脚部のみならず第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部も、粉粒体アーチ対して外力を与える。詳 細には、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部の下端部が粉粒体アーチの上方を通過する際に、 第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部の案内で下方、即ち、底壁に向かって流動した粉粒体によつ て粉粒体アーチが崩される。よって、第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部が粉粒体通過 孔の上方を通過したときに粉粒体アーチが崩れて底壁の下方に落下する。つまり、 本発明によれば、底面旋回部材の回転速度を低速から高速へと変化させた場合に、 粉粒体の排出量を急激に増加させることができる。 [0044] On the other hand, when the bottom turning member is rotated at a relatively high speed, not only the first arch crushing leg but also the second arch crushing leg gives an external force to the granular arch. . Specifically, when the lower end of the second arch crushing leg passes over the granular arch, the powder that flows downward, that is, toward the bottom wall, is guided by the second arch crushing leg. The granule arch is broken by the granule. Therefore, when the first and second arch crushing legs pass above the granular material passage hole, the granular arch collapses and falls below the bottom wall. That is, according to the present invention, when the rotational speed of the bottom turning member is changed from low speed to high speed, the discharge amount of the granular material can be increased rapidly.

[0046] [請求項 16の発明] [0046] [Invention of claim 16]
請求項 16の発明によれば、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部は、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部より 広い範囲で粉粒体アーチを崩すことが可能になるので、底面旋回部材の回転速度 を低速から高速へと変化させた場合に、粉粒体の排出量をより急激に増加させること ができる。 According to the invention of claim 16, since the second arch crushing leg can disintegrate the granular arch in a wider range than the first arch crushing leg, the rotational speed of the bottom turning member is reduced. When the speed is changed from high to low, the amount of discharged particulate matter can be increased more rapidly.
[0047] [請求項 17の発明] [0047] [Invention of claim 17]
請求項 17の発明によれば、底面旋回部材の回転速度が比較的小さい場合には、 間隔を空けて横並びに設けられた複数の第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部同士の間を粉粒体 がすり抜けてゆくので、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部の下端部が通過した部分の粉粒体ァ ーチだけが崩される。一方、回転速度が比較的大きい場合には、複数の第 1のァー チ粉砕脚部同士の間を粉粒体が通過し難くなり、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部の下端部が 通過した部分とその近傍の粉粒体アーチとを崩すことが可能となる。 According to the invention of claim 17, when the rotational speed of the bottom turning member is relatively low, the granular material slips between the plurality of first arch crushing legs provided side by side with a space therebetween. Therefore, only the part of the granular material where the lower end of the first arch crushing leg has passed is broken. On the other hand, when the rotational speed is relatively high, it is difficult for the granular material to pass between the plurality of first arch crushing legs, and the lower end of the first arch crushing leg passes. And the granule arch in the vicinity thereof can be broken.
[0048] [請求項 18の発明] 請求項 18の発明によれば、アーチ粉砕脚部がスリット上方を横切る際の横断距離 力 S、スリットを底面旋回部材の旋回半径方向に延ばした場合に比べて長くなるので、 より広範囲の粉粒体アーチを崩すことができる。 [0048] [Invention of Claim 18] According to the invention of claim 18, since the transverse distance force S when the arch crushing leg crosses the upper part of the slit is longer than that when the slit is extended in the turning radius direction of the bottom turning member, a wider range of powder particles The body arch can be broken.
[0049] なお、複数の粉粒体通過孔としてのスリットは、直線状に延びていてもよいし、円弧 状に湾曲していてもよい。また、スリットを円弧状とした場合、アーチ粉砕脚部の旋回 中心を中心として湾曲した円弧状にしてもよいし、一端部から他端部に向かって湾曲 しながらアーチ粉砕脚部の旋回中心に接近していく円弧状にしてもよい。 [0049] It should be noted that the slits as the plurality of granular material passage holes may extend linearly or may be curved in an arc shape. When the slit is arcuate, the arc may be curved around the center of rotation of the arch crushing leg, or it may be curved from one end to the other end while turning to the center of rotation of the arch crushing leg. You may make it the circular arc shape which approaches.

[0051] [請求項 20の発明] [0051] [Invention of claim 20]
請求項 20に係る発明によれば、粉粒体は、粉粒体容器のうち、大径筒部の下端部 中央に配置された容器内円板と大径筒部の側壁との間の環状空間から下方に流下 して、大径筒部と小径筒部との間を接合した水平段差壁の上面に堆積し、容器内円 板と水平段差壁との間で安息角を有した粉粒体山を形成する。この粉粒体山により 容器内円板と水平段差壁との間が塞がれるから、中間旋回部材が停止しているとき には、粉粒体が小径筒部内に落下することはない。 According to the invention of claim 20, in the powder container, the granular material is an annular shape between the inner disc disposed at the center of the lower end of the large-diameter cylindrical portion and the side wall of the large-diameter cylindrical portion. Powder that flows downward from the space and accumulates on the upper surface of the horizontal stepped wall that joins the large-diameter cylindrical part and the small-diameter cylindrical part, and has an angle of repose between the inner circular plate and the horizontal stepped wall. Form body mountain. Since the gap between the inner circular plate and the horizontal step wall is closed by the granular material pile, the granular material does not fall into the small-diameter cylindrical portion when the intermediate turning member is stopped.
[0052] 中間旋回部材を旋回させると、中間旋回部材は粉粒体山を崩しながら粉粒体を小 径筒部の内部へと案内する。また、粉粒体山が崩されると直ぐに、環状空間から粉粒 体が供給されて新たな粉粒体山が形成されるから、中間旋回部材を旋回させている 間だけ粉粒体を小径筒部の内部へと案内することができる。 [0052] When the intermediate turning member is turned, the intermediate turning member guides the powder particles to the inside of the small-diameter cylindrical portion while breaking the powder particles. In addition, as soon as the powder pile is broken, the powder is supplied from the annular space and a new powder pile is formed. It can be guided to the inside of the department.

粉粒体の流動性が低!/、と、中間旋回部材によって粉粒体を小径筒部の内部にスム ーズに誘導できないことがある。これに対し、請求項 21の発明によれば、中間旋回部 材が水平段差壁の上面で回転して渦巻きガイドとすれ違う際に、それら中間旋回部 材と渦巻きガイドとが協働して粉粒体を中心側に移動させるので、流動性の低レ、粉 粒体でもスムーズに小径筒部に案内することができる。ここで、渦巻きガイドは、 1つ だけでもよいし複数設けてもよい。また、請求項 22の発明のように、渦巻きガイドは、 インポリュート曲線、対数渦巻き曲線、アルキメデス渦巻き曲線の何れかに沿って延 びた形状にすると、より効果的である。 Because the fluidity of the granular material is low !, the intermediate rotating member may not be able to smoothly guide the granular material into the small-diameter cylindrical portion. On the other hand, according to the invention of claim 21, when the intermediate swirling member rotates on the upper surface of the horizontal step wall and passes the swirl guide, the intermediate swirling member and the swirl guide cooperate with each other in the form of particles. Since the body is moved to the center side, even the low fluidity and granular material can be smoothly guided to the small diameter cylindrical portion. Here, one spiral guide Only one or a plurality of them may be provided. Further, as in the invention of claim 22, it is more effective if the spiral guide has a shape extending along any one of the import curve, the logarithmic spiral curve, and the Archimedes spiral curve.

It has a structure. A disc-shaped bottom wall 14 is detachably mounted on the horizontal step surface between the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 and the granular material discharge portion 13. The upper end of the powder drum 10 is open, covered with a lid 16, and a supply motor 15 is provided at the center of the upper surface of the lid 16. A rotation shaft 15A (corresponding to a “rotation output shaft” of the present invention) of the supply motor 15 passes through the lid 16 and extends along the center shaft in the powder drum 10. Furthermore, an opening is formed in a part of the lid 16, and the lower end of the chute 32 of the hopper 30 is inserted into the opening!
[0061] シュート 32の下端開口 32Aは、粉粒体ドラム 10のうち大径筒部 11と小径筒部 12と の間を接合した平板状の水平段差壁 20に所定の間隔を開けて突き合わされている 。そしてシュート 32の下端開口 32A力も排出された粉粒体力 S、一旦、水平段差壁 20 の上面(以下、「水平段差面 21」という)に蓄積され、その粉粒体の堆積山を供給モ ータ 15の回転軸 15Aに取り付けられたスクレーバ 22で崩して小径筒部 12内に引き 込む。 [0061] The lower end opening 32A of the chute 32 is abutted with a flat horizontal stepped wall 20 joining the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11 and the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 of the granular drum 10 with a predetermined interval. ing . Then, the powder body force S from which the lower end opening 32A force of the chute 32 is also discharged is temporarily accumulated on the upper surface of the horizontal step wall 20 (hereinafter referred to as “horizontal step surface 21”), and the pile of the powder is supplied to the supply mode. It is broken by a scraper 22 attached to the rotary shaft 15A of the cylinder 15 and pulled into the small diameter cylindrical portion 12.
[0062] スクレーバ 22は、図 3に示すように、供給モータ 15の回転軸 15A (図 1参照)に取り 付けられる円柱形状の軸部 25から側方に集粉羽 23と散粉羽 24を延ばした構造にな つている。その集粉羽 23は回転方向(図 3の矢印の方向)とは逆側に膨らんだ円弧 状をなす一方、散粉羽 24は回転方向側に膨らんだ円弧状をなしている。また、図 4 に示すように、集粉羽 23は、その先端が大径筒部 11の内側面 11Cと隣接する位置 まで延び、散粉羽 24は、それより短くなつている。 [0062] As shown in FIG. 3, the scraper 22 extends the dust collection blades 23 and the dusting blades 24 laterally from a cylindrical shaft portion 25 attached to the rotation shaft 15A (see FIG. 1) of the supply motor 15. It has a different structure. The dust collection blade 23 has an arc shape that swells in the opposite direction to the rotation direction (the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3), while the dust wing 24 has an arc shape that swells in the rotation direction side. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the dust collection blade 23 extends to a position where the tip thereof is adjacent to the inner side surface 11C of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11, and the dust collection blade 24 is shorter than that.
[0063] さらに、集粉羽 23及び散粉羽 24は、水平段差面 21に隣接している。そして、集粉 羽 23により、水平段差面 21上の粉粒体を中心側に誘導して小径筒部 12内に取り込 むとともに、散粉羽 24により集粉羽 23が取り込み過ぎた粉粒体を外側に移動して逃 し、次に集粉羽 23が通過したときに取り込み小径筒部 12内の粉粒体圧を安定させ 易くしている。また、集粉羽 23と散粉羽 24とが協働して、粉粒体を撹拌して、粉粒体 の塊を粉砕する効果も兼用する。さらに、粉粒体が 2種以上の粉粒体の混合物であ る場合には、この集積と分散の繰り返しによって 2種の粉粒体の混合度合!/、を高める ことができる。なお、集粉羽 23は、本発明の「上部旋回部材」に相当する。 In addition, the dust collection blade 23 and the dust collection blade 24 are adjacent to the horizontal step surface 21. And powder collection The wings 23 guide the particles on the horizontal stepped surface 21 toward the center and take them into the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12, and the dust wings 24 move the particles that have been taken in too much by the dust wings 24 to the outside. When the dust collection blades 23 pass next, the particulate pressure in the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 is easily stabilized. Further, the dust collection blade 23 and the dust collection blade 24 cooperate to agitate the powder and pulverize the lump of the powder. Furthermore, when the powder is a mixture of two or more powders, the degree of mixing of the two powders can be increased by repeating this accumulation and dispersion. The dust collection blade 23 corresponds to the “upper turning member” of the present invention.

The body piles up and closes the lower end opening 32A of the chute 32. The angle (repose angle) with respect to the horizontal surface of the slope of this sedimentary mountain is a constant angle depending on the type of powder. In the present embodiment, by utilizing this property, it is possible to prevent excessive discharge of powder particles from the chute 32 without providing an opening / closing means at the lower end opening 32A of the chute 32. In addition, since the powder particles of the chute 32 are temporarily received by the horizontal stepped surface 21, the powder pressure in the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 is stabilized, and the powder particles from the particle passage hole 14B described later. Discharge can be stabilized.
[0065] さて、粉粒体ドラム 10の底壁 14には、図 6 (A)及び図 6 (B)に示すように、複数の 底壁上面突部 14Aが設けられている。各底壁上面突部 14Aは、側面の 1つが垂直 に起立した三角錐をなしており、底壁 14上の大小 2つの同心円に沿って並べられて いる。そして底壁上面突部 14Aの一側面から底壁 14の裏面に向けて粉粒体通過孔 14Bが貫通形成されている。この粉粒体通過孔 14Bは、図 7に示すように、底壁上面 突部 14Aの下方に途中で屈曲して形成されており、底壁上面突部 14Aの起立した 側面に粉粒体通過孔 14Bの上端開口が配置されている。また、底壁 14の裏面では 、底壁上面突部 14Aの真下に粉粒体通過孔 14Bの下端開口が配置され、鉛直下方 に開放している。 [0065] Now, the bottom wall 14 of the powder drum 10 is provided with a plurality of bottom wall upper surface protrusions 14A as shown in FIGS. 6 (A) and 6 (B). Each bottom wall upper surface protrusion 14A forms a triangular pyramid with one of its side surfaces standing upright, and is arranged along two concentric circles on the bottom wall 14. A granular material passage hole 14B is formed so as to penetrate from one side surface of the bottom wall upper surface protrusion 14A toward the back surface of the bottom wall 14. As shown in FIG. 7, the granular material passage hole 14B is formed by being bent halfway below the bottom wall upper surface protrusion 14A, and passes through the granular material on the upright side of the bottom wall upper surface protrusion 14A. The upper end opening of the hole 14B is arranged. Further, on the back surface of the bottom wall 14, a lower end opening of the granular material passage hole 14B is disposed directly below the bottom wall upper surface protrusion 14A, and is open vertically downward.
[0066] そして、粉粒体通過孔 14Bの上端開口 1 後述する底面旋回部材 26の旋回方向 と逆向きの方向を向いている。 [0066] The upper end opening 1 of the granular material passage hole 14B 1 faces the direction opposite to the turning direction of the bottom turning member 26 described later.
[0067] ここで、粉粒体通過孔 14Bは、図 7に示すように、底壁 14上に粉粒体が堆積したと きに、粉粒体通過孔 14Bの上端開口に付着した粉粒体により粉粒体アーチが形成さ れると共に、その粉粒体アーチが崩れた状態で粉粒体が通過可能な大きさになって いる。即ち、粉粒体通過孔 14Bは粉粒体の粒径の数倍から十数倍の大きさになって いる。また、粉粒体の性状等によって粉粒体通過孔 14Bの最適な大きさは異なるた め、粉粒体通過孔 14Bの大きさが異なる底壁 14が複数種類用意されており、粉粒体 供給装置 100を使用する前に粉粒体に適した底壁 14を選んで取り替えることができ るようになっている。 [0067] Here, as shown in FIG. 7, the granular material passage hole 14B has a granular material deposited on the bottom wall 14. At the same time, the granular material arch is formed by the granular material adhering to the upper end opening of the granular material passage hole 14B, and the granular material arch is sized so that the granular material can pass therethrough. ing. In other words, the granular material passage hole 14B has a size several to ten times larger than the particle size of the granular material. In addition, since the optimum size of the granular material passage hole 14B differs depending on the properties of the granular material, etc., there are multiple types of bottom walls 14 with different granular particle passage holes 14B. Before using the feeder 100, the bottom wall 14 suitable for the granular material can be selected and replaced.
[0068] 図 1に示すように、小径筒部 12には、底壁 14上を旋回する底面旋回部材 26が備 えられている。底面旋回部材 26は、図 8に示すように、供給モータ 15の回転軸 15A に接続する軸部 29から相対する半径方向に延びる 2つの旋回プレート 27, 27を有し 、これら各旋回プレート 27の下端から旋回脚部 28が垂下されて!/、る。 As shown in FIG. 1, the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 is provided with a bottom surface turning member 26 that turns on the bottom wall 14. As shown in FIG. 8, the bottom swivel member 26 has two swivel plates 27, 27 extending in a radial direction opposite to each other from a shaft portion 29 connected to the rotation shaft 15 </ b> A of the supply motor 15. The swivel leg 28 is suspended from the lower end!
[0069] 図 8に示すように、旋回プレート 27は、横長矩形の平板で、旋回方向に対して旋回 プレート 27の前端縁側が後端縁側より上方となるように傾斜する迎角を有している。 底壁 14上で旋回プレート 27を旋回させると、小径筒部 12内の粉粒体を下側(底壁 1 4側)に押し付けながら旋回し、旋回脚部 28は底壁 14上の粉粒体に外力を付与する 。また、旋回脚部 28の下端面は、底壁 14のうち底壁上面突部 14A同士の間の平坦 面に隙間を介して対向している(図 10参照)。そして、旋回プレート 27が旋回すると、 旋回脚部 28が底壁上面突部 14Aの間を移動し、粉粒体アーチに外力を付与する。 [0069] As shown in FIG. 8, the swivel plate 27 is a horizontally long rectangular flat plate having an angle of attack that is inclined so that the front end edge side of the swivel plate 27 is above the rear end edge side with respect to the swivel direction. Yes. When the swivel plate 27 is swung on the bottom wall 14, it turns while pressing the powder in the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 against the bottom (bottom wall 14 side). Apply external force to the body. Further, the lower end surface of the swivel leg portion 28 is opposed to the flat surface between the bottom wall upper surface protrusions 14A of the bottom wall 14 with a gap (see FIG. 10). When the turning plate 27 turns, the turning leg portion 28 moves between the bottom wall upper surface protrusions 14A and applies an external force to the granular arch.
[0070] 本実施形態の構成に関する説明は以上である。次に、本実施形態の作用効果に ついて説明する。図 1に示すように、ホッパ 30内に粉粒体を収容した状態で、供給モ ータ 15を駆動させる。すると、粉粒体力 Sスクレーバ 22の回転により小径筒部 12に引 き込まれ、底壁 14上に堆積する(図 9参照)。このとき、粉粒体同士が付着して粉粒 体通過孔 14Bを閉塞する粉粒体アーチが形成されるため、粉粒体が自重のみにより 粉粒体通過孔 14Bを通過することはない。そして、小径筒部 12内を旋回している底 面旋回部材 26が各粉粒体通過孔 14Bを閉塞している粉粒体アーチの近傍を通過し たときに、それら粉粒体アーチが外力を受けて崩され、その粉粒体アーチを形成して いた粉粒体が粉粒体通過孔 14Bから下方に排出される。そして、粉粒体通過孔 14B には、すぐに新たな粉粒体アーチが形成されて再び閉塞される。一旦粉粒体アーチ が崩れて再度形成されるまでに粉粒体通過孔 14Bから流出する粉粒体の量は極微 量であるので、底面旋回部材 26を旋回させている間は微少量ずつの粉粒体を供給 すること力 Sでさる。 [0070] This completes the description of the configuration of the present embodiment. Next, the function and effect of this embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the supply motor 15 is driven in a state where powder particles are accommodated in the hopper 30. Then, it is drawn into the small-diameter cylindrical part 12 by the rotation of the granular material force S scraper 22 and accumulates on the bottom wall 14 (see FIG. 9). At this time, since the powder particles adhere to each other to form a powder particle arch that closes the powder particle passage hole 14B, the powder material does not pass through the powder particle passage hole 14B only by its own weight. Then, when the bottom turning member 26 turning in the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 passes in the vicinity of the powder arch closing each of the powder passage holes 14B, these powder arches are subjected to external force. As a result, the granular material that formed the granular arch is discharged downward from the granular material passage hole 14B. Then, a new granule arch is immediately formed in the granule passage hole 14B and closed again. Once the granule arch Since the amount of powder flowing out of the granular material passage hole 14B is extremely small before it breaks down and is formed again, a small amount of granular material is supplied while the bottom swivel member 26 is swung. The power S to do.
[0071] また、図 10に示すように、底面旋回部材 26の旋回プレート 27は迎角を有している ために、底面旋回部材 26が旋回することにより粉粒体が底壁 14側に押し付けられる 。これにより、底壁 14上に形成された粉粒体アーチに効率よく外力を加えて、粉粒体 を粉粒体通過孔 14Bから底壁の下方に強制的に落下させることができる。さらに、旋 回プレート 27から垂下した旋回脚部 28が粉粒体を撹拌し、粉粒体が塊になることを 防ぎながら、粉粒体アーチに外力を加えて粉粒体を粉粒体通過孔 14Bから底壁 14 の下方に落下させることができる。 [0071] Further, as shown in FIG. 10, since the swivel plate 27 of the bottom swivel member 26 has an angle of attack, the bottom swivel member 26 swivels to push the granular material against the bottom wall 14 side. Be Thereby, an external force can be efficiently applied to the granular material arch formed on the bottom wall 14, and the granular material can be forcibly dropped from the granular material passage hole 14B below the bottom wall. In addition, the swivel legs 28 suspended from the swivel plate 27 stir the powder and prevent the powder from clumping while applying external force to the powder arch to pass the powder through the powder. It can be dropped below the bottom wall 14 from the hole 14B.
[0072] さて、所定量の粉粒体、例えば lOmgの粉粒体を量り取る場合には、以下のように 行えばよい。即ち、図 1に示すように、計量器 102の上に受皿 104を載置して、粉粒 体供給装置 100の下方に配置しておぐこの状態で、計量器 102の値を確認しなが ら供給モータ 15を回転させて粉粒体を微少量ずつ供給する。計量器 102の値が 10 mgになったときに供給モータ 15の回転を止めれば、 lOmgの粉粒体を量り取ること 力 Sできる。また、計量器 102の値が lOmgとなる手前で回転数を小さくすれば、供給さ れる粉粒体がさらに微少量になるため、より正確に計量すること力 Sできる。なお、旋回 プレート 27の下端から垂下されて!/、る旋回脚部 28の本数を減らすことで、供給され る粉粒体をさらに微少量で供給することができる。 [0072] Now, when a predetermined amount of powder, for example, lOmg powder, is measured, it may be performed as follows. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the tray 104 is placed on the weighing instrument 102 and placed below the powder supply device 100, and the value of the weighing instrument 102 is not confirmed. However, the supply motor 15 is rotated to supply fine particles little by little. If the supply motor 15 stops rotating when the value of the measuring instrument 102 reaches 10 mg, the force S can be measured by measuring lOmg powder. Further, if the rotation speed is reduced before the value of the measuring instrument 102 reaches lOmg, the supplied granular material becomes even smaller, so that the force S can be measured more accurately. By reducing the number of swivel legs 28 that are suspended from the lower end of the swivel plate 27, the supplied granular material can be fed in a very small amount.
[0073] このように、本実施形態の粉粒体供給装置 100によれば、微少量の粉粒体を供給 すること力 Sでき、従って、上述したように微少量の粉粒体を量り取ることができる。 [0073] As described above, according to the granular material supply apparatus 100 of the present embodiment, the force S for supplying a very small amount of granular material can be obtained. Therefore, as described above, a very small amount of granular material is weighed out. be able to.
[0074] [第 2実施形態] [0074] [Second Embodiment]
本発明の第 2実施形態は、図 11に示されており、本発明に係る粉粒体計量装置 1 01に関するものである。この粉粒体計量装置 101は、上記第 1実施形態の粉粒体供 給装置 100に計量器 102と制御装置 103 (本発明の「モータ駆動制御部」に相当す る)を組み合わせてある。そして、所望の粉粒体の重量を制御装置 103に設定し、図 示しないスタートスィッチをオンすると、供給モータ 15を駆動して粉粒体供給装置 10 0から微少量ずつ粉粒体が受皿 104に供給される。また、制御装置 103は、計量器 1 02の測定値を取り込んでおり、その計測値が設定した重量に達したときに、供給モ ータ 15の回転を停止する。これにより、設定した重量と微少誤差の範囲で一致した 量の粉粒体を量り取ることができる。 A second embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 11 and relates to a powder particle measuring apparatus 101 according to the present invention. In this granular material measuring device 101, a measuring device 102 and a control device 103 (corresponding to the “motor drive control unit” of the present invention) are combined with the granular material supply device 100 of the first embodiment. Then, when the weight of the desired granular material is set in the control device 103 and a start switch (not shown) is turned on, the supply motor 15 is driven to allow the granular material to be received from the granular material supply device 100 by a small amount. To be supplied. In addition, the control device 103 is a measuring instrument 1 When the measured value of 02 is taken in and the measured value reaches the set weight, the supply motor 15 stops rotating. As a result, it is possible to weigh out the amount of powder that matches the set weight within a range of minute errors.
[0075] [第 3実施形態] [0075] [Third Embodiment]
本実施形態は、図 12〜図 15に示されており、底壁及び底面旋回部材の形状が、 第 1実施形態とは異なる。即ち、図 12に示すように、底壁 60は、円形平板状をなし、 上下の両面が平坦になっている。そして、底壁 60の法線方向に粉粒体通過孔 60B が貫通形成されると共に、図 13に拡大して示すように下端部に向かって徐々に開口 面積が広がっている。この構成によれば、付着力が比較的強い粉粒体をスムーズに 粉粒体通過孔 60Bを通して供給することができる。また、粉粒体通過孔 60Bは、下方 に向かって徐々に開口面積が広がっているので、粉粒体アーチが粉粒体通過孔の 下端側に形成されることを防ぎ、付着力が比較的強い粉粒体をスムーズに粉粒体通 過孔 60Bを通して供給することができる。 This embodiment is shown in FIGS. 12 to 15, and the shapes of the bottom wall and the bottom surface turning member are different from those of the first embodiment. That is, as shown in FIG. 12, the bottom wall 60 has a circular flat plate shape, and the upper and lower surfaces are flat. Then, the granular material passage hole 60B is formed through in the normal direction of the bottom wall 60, and the opening area gradually increases toward the lower end as shown in FIG. According to this configuration, it is possible to smoothly supply a granular material having a relatively strong adhesive force through the granular material passage hole 60B. In addition, since the opening area of the granular material passage hole 60B gradually expands downward, the granular material arch is prevented from being formed on the lower end side of the granular material passage hole, and the adhesion force is relatively low. Strong particles can be smoothly fed through the particle passage hole 60B.
[0076] また、本実施形態の底面旋回部材 43は、図 14 (A)に示すように、前記第 1実施形 態の底面旋回部材 26から旋回脚部 28を排除した形状になっており、旋回プレート 2 7の下端部が底壁 60の上面に隣接した状態で旋回する。 Further, as shown in FIG. 14 (A), the bottom turning member 43 of the present embodiment has a shape in which the turning legs 28 are excluded from the bottom turning member 26 of the first embodiment. The swivel plate 2 7 swivels with the lower end portion adjacent to the upper surface of the bottom wall 60.
[0077] このような構成にしても粉粒体通過孔 60Bに形成された粉粒体アーチに外力を付 与して崩し、粉粒体通過孔 60Bから流出させることができる。ここで、旋回プレート 27 によって粉粒体アーチに付与される外力は、底面旋回部材 26が旋回して付与する 外力よりも大きいため、流動性の低い粉粒体に使用する場合や、粉粒体通過孔 60B , 61Bからの粉粒体の排出量を増やしたい場合には、この底面旋回部材 43を使用 すればよい。 [0077] Even with such a configuration, an external force can be applied to the granular material arch formed in the granular material passage hole 60B to break it, and it can flow out of the granular material passage hole 60B. Here, the external force applied to the powder arch by the swivel plate 27 is larger than the external force applied by the bottom swivel member 26, so that it may be used for a powder with low fluidity, In order to increase the discharge amount of the granular material from the through holes 60B and 61B, the bottom surface turning member 43 may be used.
[0078] なお、この突部のない底壁 60を用いる場合の粉粒体通過孔 60Bの形は円形に限 られるものではなく、多角形であってもよい。図 15 (A)及び図 15 (B)のように四角形 の粉粒体通過孔 61Bを有する底壁 61であっても同様の効果を奏する。また、図 14 ( B)に示した底面旋回部材 46のように、旋回プレート 47を旋回方向に対して斜めで はなぐ垂直に形成してもよい。この場合は旋回プレート 47が傾斜していないため底 面旋回部材 46のような強い外力を粉粒体アーチに加えることはできないが、底面旋 回部材 26よりも強い外力を加えることができるため、粉粒体の種類によって適宜選択 するとよい。なお、この底面旋回部材 43, 46の旋回プレート下面 27B, 47Bが本発 明に係る「隣接下端面」に相当する。 [0078] Note that the shape of the granular material passage hole 60B in the case of using the bottom wall 60 having no protrusion is not limited to a circular shape, and may be a polygonal shape. The same effect can be obtained even with the bottom wall 61 having the rectangular particle passage hole 61B as shown in FIGS. 15 (A) and 15 (B). Further, like the bottom turning member 46 shown in FIG. 14 (B), the turning plate 47 may be formed perpendicular to the turning direction. In this case, since the swivel plate 47 is not inclined, a strong external force like the bottom swivel member 46 cannot be applied to the granular arch, but the bottom swivel Since an external force stronger than that of the rotating member 26 can be applied, it may be appropriately selected depending on the type of the granular material. Note that the swivel plate lower surfaces 27B and 47B of the bottom swivel members 43 and 46 correspond to the “adjacent lower end surface” according to the present invention.
[0079] [第 4実施形態] [0079] [Fourth Embodiment]
第 4実施形態は、図 16及び図 17に示されており、粉粒体ドラム 70の形状が前記第 1実施形態と異なり、大径筒部 11と小径筒部 12との間に円錐筒部 71を備えている。 また、供給モータ 15の回転軸 15Aには撹拌翼 18 (本発明の「円錐筒部旋回部材」に 相当する)が取り付けられている。撹拌翼 18は、図 17に示すように 1対の撹拌プレー ト 18A, 18Aを有し、それら撹拌プレート 18A, 18Aは、円錐筒部 71と小径筒部 12と に跨り、円錐筒部 71の母線方向に延びている。そして、供給モータ 15が回転すると 、撹拌プレート 18Aの上端側は、円錐筒部 71の内側テーパー面 71Aに沿って隣接 した状態で回転し、撹拌プレート 18Aの下端側は小径筒部 12内を撹拌する。 The fourth embodiment is shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, and the shape of the granular drum 70 is different from that of the first embodiment, and the conical cylinder part is interposed between the large diameter cylinder part 11 and the small diameter cylinder part 12. 71. Further, a stirring blade 18 (corresponding to the “conical cylinder part turning member” of the present invention) is attached to the rotating shaft 15A of the supply motor 15. As shown in FIG. 17, the stirring blade 18 has a pair of stirring plates 18A, 18A. These stirring plates 18A, 18A straddle the conical cylinder portion 71 and the small diameter cylindrical portion 12, and Extends in the direction of the bus. When the supply motor 15 rotates, the upper end side of the stirring plate 18A rotates adjacent to the inner tapered surface 71A of the conical cylinder part 71, and the lower end side of the stirring plate 18A stirs the inside of the small diameter cylindrical part 12. To do.
[0080] また、図 16に示すように、粉粒体ドラム 70には、シュート 32の下端開口 32Aが、円 錐筒部 71の内側テーパー面 71Aに上方から突き合わせて配置されている。シュート 32の下端開口 32Aから排出される粉粒体は、内側テーパー面 71Aが傾斜している 為に小径筒部 12に流下する。小径筒部 12内が粉粒体で満たされると(図 16の状態 )、小径筒部 12に流下できない粉粒体が円錐筒部 71内にも蓄積し、下端開口 32A の下方に堆積山ができ下端開口 32Aを塞ぐ。その結果、本実施形態でも第 1実施形 態の場合と同じように、シュート 32の下端開口 32Aに開閉手段を設けなくても、シュ ート 32から円錐筒部 71へ粉粒体が過剰に排出されることを防ぐことができる。 As shown in FIG. 16, the lower end opening 32A of the chute 32 is arranged in the powder drum 70 so as to abut against the inner tapered surface 71A of the conical cylinder part 71 from above. The granular material discharged from the lower end opening 32A of the chute 32 flows down to the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 because the inner tapered surface 71A is inclined. When the inside of the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 is filled with powder particles (state shown in FIG. 16), the granular material that cannot flow down into the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12 also accumulates in the conical cylindrical portion 71, and there is a pile of deposits below the lower end opening 32A. The lower end opening 32A is closed. As a result, in this embodiment as well, as in the first embodiment, excessive powder particles from the shout 32 to the conical cylinder portion 71 can be obtained without providing an opening / closing means at the lower end opening 32A of the chute 32. It can be prevented from being discharged.
[0081] [第 5実施形態] [0081] [Fifth Embodiment]
この第 5実施形態は、図 18及び図 19に示されており、ホッパ 30を使用せず、粉粒 体ドラム 10における大径筒部 11の内部に、粉粒体制御円盤 38及び粉粒体搔き出し 棒 39を備えている点が第 1実施形態と異なる。図 18及び図 19に示すように、粉粒体 制御円盤 38は、大径筒部 11の径よりも小さぐ小径筒部 12の径よりも大きい径の平 らな円盤で、大径筒部 11の底部で旋回するスクレーバ 22の上部に水平に取り付け られている。粉粒体制御円盤 38を取り付けて大径筒部 11に粉粒体を投入すると、粉 粒体は粉粒体制御円盤 38の縁部と大径筒部 11の内側面 11 Cとの間にできる環状 空間 94から水平段差面 21上に流下する。 This fifth embodiment is shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19, and does not use the hopper 30, and inside the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11 in the powder drum 10, the powder control disk 38 and the powder particles. The difference from the first embodiment is that a rolling bar 39 is provided. As shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, the granular material control disk 38 is a flat disk having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11 and larger than the diameter of the small-diameter cylindrical portion 12, and the large-diameter cylindrical portion. It is mounted horizontally on the top of the scraper 22 that swivels at the bottom of the eleven. When the granular material control disk 38 is attached and the granular material is put into the large diameter cylindrical part 11, the granular material is placed between the edge of the granular material control disk 38 and the inner surface 11 C of the large diameter cylindrical part 11. Can ring It flows down from the space 94 onto the horizontal step surface 21.
[0082] 一方、粉粒体搔き出し棒 39は、粉粒体制御円盤 38の上部に隣接配置された平板 であり、粉粒体制御円盤 38が旋回することで、粉粒体制御円盤 38上の粉粒体を縁 側に搔き出すために設けられている。粉粒体搔き出し棒 39の平面を、供給モータ 15 の回転軸 15Aの側面に当接して接線方向に取り付けることで、回転方向に対して傾 斜ができ、粉粒体制御円盤 38上の粉粒体が粉粒体制御円盤 38の縁部に押し出さ れる。また、粉粒体搔き出し棒 39は、その先端が大径筒部 11の内側面 11Cに隣接 する位置まで延びており、押し出された粉粒体を、粉粒体制御円盤 38の縁部と内側 面 11 Cとの間の環状空間 94から水平段差面 21上に流下させる。さらに、粉粒体搔き 出し棒 39により大径筒部 11内の粉粒体を撹拌して、粉粒体が固まったり、詰まったり することを防ぐこと力 Sできる。これにより、粉粒体制御円盤 38の上部の粉粒体を安定 して水平段差面 21上に流下させることが可能となる。 [0082] On the other hand, the powder body pouring bar 39 is a flat plate disposed adjacent to the upper part of the powder body control disk 38, and the powder body control disk 38 rotates to turn the powder body control disk 38. It is provided to sprinkle the upper granular material to the edge. By attaching the flat surface of the powder particle spreading bar 39 to the side surface of the rotating shaft 15A of the supply motor 15 in the tangential direction, it can be inclined with respect to the rotation direction, and the powder particle control disk 38 The powder is pushed out to the edge of the powder control disk 38. In addition, the granular material spreading rod 39 has a tip extending to a position adjacent to the inner surface 11C of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11, and the extruded granular material is moved to the edge of the granular material control disk 38. From the annular space 94 between the inner surface 11C and the inner surface 11C. Furthermore, it is possible to agitate the granular material in the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11 with the granular material discharging rod 39 to prevent the granular material from solidifying or clogging. As a result, it is possible to stably flow down the granular material on the upper part of the granular material control disk 38 onto the horizontal step surface 21.
[0083] 水平段差面 21に流下した粉粒体は、第 1実施形態におけるホッパ 30の場合と同様 に、粉粒体制御円盤 38と水平段差面 21との間で粉流体の堆積山を形成する。ここ でも形成された粉粒体の堆積山の安息角は、粉粒体によって一定となるため、粉粒 体制御円盤 38の上方から水平段差面 21へ過剰な粉粒体が供給されないようにする こと力 Sできる。即ち、粉粒体制御円盤 38の縁部と大径筒部 11の内側面 11Cとの間に できる環状空間 94が、粉粒体の堆積山で塞がれて粉粒体が排出されなくなるように 、粉粒体制御円盤 38と大径筒部 11の水平段差面 21とを接近させて過剰な粉粒体 が供給されなレ、ようにすること力 Sできる。 [0083] The granular material flowing down to the horizontal step surface 21 forms a pile of powder fluid between the granular material control disk 38 and the horizontal step surface 21, as in the case of the hopper 30 in the first embodiment. To do. Again, the angle of repose of the piles of the formed granular material is constant depending on the granular material, so that excessive granular material should not be supplied from above the granular control disk 38 to the horizontal step surface 21. That power S. That is, the annular space 94 formed between the edge of the granular material control disk 38 and the inner surface 11C of the large diameter cylindrical portion 11 is blocked by the piles of granular particles so that the granular materials are not discharged. In addition, it is possible to force the powder control disk 38 and the horizontal stepped surface 21 of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11 to approach each other so that no excessive powder is supplied.
[0084] また、粉粒体制御円盤 38の上部から流下する粉粒体は、水平段差面 21で一旦受 け止められるので、小径筒部 12内の粉粒体圧が安定する。このように、ホッパ 30を 使用しなくても、大径筒部 11内に粉粒体制御円盤 38と粉粒体搔き出し棒 39とを取り 付けることで、第 1実施形態におけるホッパ 30と同様の効果を奏することができる。 [0084] Further, since the granular material flowing down from the upper part of the granular material control disk 38 is once received by the horizontal stepped surface 21, the granular material pressure in the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 is stabilized. In this way, even if the hopper 30 is not used, the powder control disc 38 and the powder feed rod 39 are installed in the large-diameter cylindrical portion 11, so that the hopper 30 in the first embodiment can be Similar effects can be achieved.

It has become. By attaching the lower end cap 53 in this manner, the powder drum 91 can be used as a storage container for the powder.
[0094] ところで、図 25に示すように容器内回転部材 80には、軸心プレート 84から下方に 向かって延びた第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86と、付着粉粒体除去脚部 87 とが備えられている。図 21に示すように、第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86と付 着粉粒体除去脚部 87は、何れも小径筒部 12内(粉粒体排出孔 12A)で旋回可能と なっている。 [0094] By the way, as shown in FIG. 25, the container internal rotating member 80 includes first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86 extending downward from the shaft center plate 84, and removal of attached powder particles. Leg 87 And are provided. As shown in FIG. 21, both the first and second arch crushing legs 85, 86 and the attached powder granule removal leg 87 can be swung in the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 (powder particle discharge hole 12A). It is.
[0095] 第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85は対をなしており、間隔を空けて横並びに設けられてい る。第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85は、軸心プレート 84のうち散粉羽 83の付け根部分から 下方に延びており、互いに平行な帯板状をなしている。第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86は 、軸心プレート 84のうち集粉羽 82の付け根部分から下方に延びており、図 21に示す ように旋回方向の前方から見た幅力、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85より幅広の帯板状を なしている。これら第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86は、互いに 180度離れた 位置に設けられており、下方に向かうに従って容器内回転部材 80の旋回方向の後 方へ向力、うように斜めに(詳細には、鉛直方向に対して約 30度傾いて)延びている。 [0095] The first arch crushing legs 85 are paired and are provided side by side with a space therebetween. The first arch crushing leg portion 85 extends downward from the base portion of the dust wing 83 of the axial center plate 84, and has a strip shape parallel to each other. The second arch crushing leg portion 86 extends downward from the root portion of the dust collection blade 82 of the shaft center plate 84, and as shown in FIG. 21, the width force seen from the front in the turning direction, the first arch. It is in the form of a strip that is wider than the grinding leg 85. These first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86 are provided at positions 180 degrees apart from each other, and the downward force in the swiveling direction of the container internal rotation member 80 is reduced toward the lower side. It extends diagonally (more specifically, tilted about 30 degrees with respect to the vertical direction).
[0096] 付着粉粒体除去脚部 87は、軸心プレート 84のうち散粉羽 83の付け根部分から底 壁 62に向けて垂下しており、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85とほぼ同じ幅の帯板状をなし ている。図 26に示すように、容器内回転部材 80が回転すると付着粉粒体除去脚部 8 7は、小径筒部 12の内周面の近傍を旋回する。これにより、小径筒部 12の内周面に 静電気等で付着した粉粒体が削ぎ落とされる。 [0096] The adhering granular material removal leg portion 87 hangs down from the base portion of the dust wing 83 to the bottom wall 62 of the axial center plate 84, and has substantially the same width as the first arch crushing leg portion 85. It has a strip shape. As shown in FIG. 26, when the in-container rotating member 80 rotates, the attached granular material removal leg portion 87 turns around the inner peripheral surface of the small diameter cylindrical portion 12. As a result, the granular material adhering to the inner peripheral surface of the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 due to static electricity or the like is scraped off.
[0097] 図 21に示すように、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85と第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86の長さは 異ならせてあり、容器内回転部材 80が回転すると、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85の下端 部が底壁 62の上面近傍 (底壁 62の上面に接触しないすれすれ)を旋回するのに対 し、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86の下端部は、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85の下端部より上 方位置を旋回する。そして、これら第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86が底壁 62 の上方を旋回することにより、底壁 62のスリット 62Bを塞いだ粉粒体アーチが外力を 受けて崩されて、スリット 62Bから排出される。 As shown in FIG. 21, the lengths of the first arch crushing legs 85 and the second arch crushing legs 86 are different, and the first arch crushing is performed when the container rotation member 80 rotates. While the lower end of the leg 85 pivots near the upper surface of the bottom wall 62 (a grazing that does not contact the upper surface of the bottom wall 62), the lower end of the second arch crushing leg 86 is the first arch crushing. Rotate above the lower end of leg 85. Then, the first and second arch crushing legs 85, 86 swivel above the bottom wall 62, so that the granular arch closing the slit 62B of the bottom wall 62 is subjected to external force and collapsed. It is discharged from the slit 62B.
[0098] ここで、容器内回転部材 80の回転速度が小さいときには、 1対の第 1のアーチ粉砕 脚部 85同士の間を粉粒体がすり抜けてゆくので、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85の下端 部が通過した部分の粉粒体アーチしか崩すことができな!/、が、回転速度を大きくする と、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85同士の間を粉粒体が通過し難くなり、第 1のアーチ粉砕 脚部 85の下端部が通過した部分とその近傍の粉粒体アーチとを崩すことが可能とな [0099] また、スリット 62Bを、容器内回転部材 80の旋回半径方向と交差する方向に延ばし たことで、第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86がスリット 62Bの上方を横切る際の 横断距離が、スリットを容器内回転部材 80の旋回半径方向に延ばした場合よりも長く なるので、粉粒体アーチをより広レ、範囲で崩すことができる。 Here, when the rotational speed of the in-container rotating member 80 is low, the granular material slips between the pair of first arch crushing legs 85, so that the first arch crushing legs 85 Only the granule arch at the part where the lower end of the part has passed can be broken down! / However, if the rotational speed is increased, it becomes difficult for the granule to pass between the first arch crushing legs 85. The part where the lower end of the first arch crushing leg 85 passed and the granular arch near it can be broken. [0099] Further, by extending the slit 62B in a direction intersecting the turning radius direction of the container internal rotating member 80, the first and second arch crushing legs 85, 86 are crossed over the slit 62B. Since the crossing distance becomes longer than the case where the slit is extended in the turning radius direction of the in-container rotating member 80, the granular arch can be broken in a wider range.
[0100] なお、本実施形態では、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85と付着粉粒体除去脚部 87の下 端部が丸みが帯びるように面取りしてあるのに対し、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86の下 端部は角張らせてある(図 25参照)。また、第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86は 、容器内回転部材 80を構成する板金を曲げ加工することで形成されており、付着粉 粒体除去脚部 87は軸心プレート 84の下面に溶接されている。但し、これに限るもの ではなぐ容器内回転部材 80を樹脂やゴムの成形品としてもよい。以上が、粉粒体 供給装置 90の構成に関する説明である。 [0100] In the present embodiment, the first arch crushing leg 85 and the lower end of the attached granular material removing leg 87 are chamfered so as to be rounded, whereas the second arch crushing. The lower end of leg 86 is squared (see Figure 25). Further, the first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86 are formed by bending a sheet metal constituting the in-container rotating member 80, and the adhering granular material removing legs 87 are formed of the shaft plate 84. It is welded to the lower surface of. However, the in-container rotating member 80, which is not limited to this, may be a molded product of resin or rubber. This completes the description of the configuration of the powder and particle supply device 90.
[0101] 次に、本実施形態の粉粒体供給装置 90の作用効果について説明する。 [0101] Next, the function and effect of the granular material supply device 90 of the present embodiment will be described.
供給モータ 15により粉粒体制御円盤 38が回転駆動されると、粉粒体制御円盤 38 上の粉粒体が、粉粒体搔き出し棒 39によって環状空間 94から水平段差面 21へと流 下する。水平段差面 21に流下した粉粒体は、粉粒体制御円盤 38との間で所定の安 息角 α 1 (図 22参照)を有した粉粒体山を形成する。 When the powder control disk 38 is rotationally driven by the supply motor 15, the powder on the powder control disk 38 flows from the annular space 94 to the horizontal step surface 21 by the powder discharge rod 39. I will give you. The granular material that has flowed down to the horizontal stepped surface 21 forms a granular particle pile having a predetermined angle of repose α 1 (see FIG. 22) with the granular material control disk 38.
[0102] また、供給モータ 15により容器内回転部材 80が回転駆動されると、容器内回転部 材 80の集粉羽 82が水平段差面 21に摺接しつつ旋回する。このとき、集粉羽 82は、 水平段差面 21に堆積した粉流体山を削り取って、その粉粒体を水平段差面 21の中 心、即ち、小径筒部 12へと送り込む(図 22及び図 26参照)。 [0102] When the container rotating member 80 is rotationally driven by the supply motor 15, the powder collection blades 82 of the container rotating member 80 rotate while being in sliding contact with the horizontal step surface 21. At this time, the dust collection blade 82 scrapes off the pulverized fluid piles accumulated on the horizontal step surface 21 and feeds the granular material to the center of the horizontal step surface 21, that is, the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 (see FIGS. 22 and 22). 26).
[0103] また、集粉羽 82により粉粒体が削り取られたことで粉粒体山が崩されると、直ぐに、 環状空間 94から粉粒体が流入し、粉粒体制御円盤 38と水平段差壁 20との間に新 たな粉粒体山が形成される。つまり、粉粒体が自重によって大径筒部 11から小径筒 部 12へと雪崩れ込むことはなぐ集粉羽 82によって削り取られた分の粉粒体だけが 、小径筒部 12 (粉粒体排出孔 12A)へと送り込まれる。 [0103] In addition, as soon as the powder particles are scraped off by the powder collection blades 82, the powder particles flow in from the annular space 94, and the horizontal difference between the powder control disc 38 and the horizontal step. A new pile of particles is formed between the wall 20 and the wall 20. In other words, the powder particles that have been scraped off by the powder collection blades 82 that do not collapse into the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 from the large diameter cylindrical portion 11 due to their own weight are only the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 (the granular material It is sent to the discharge hole 12A).
[0104] 小径筒部 12内に送り込まれた粉粒体は、互いに付着し合ってスリット 62Βを閉塞し た粉粒体アーチを形成する。この粉粒体アーチは、容器内回転部材 80のうち小径 筒部 12内で旋回する第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85及び/又は第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 8 6から外力を受けて崩され、その崩された粉粒体アーチを形成していた粉粒体力 Sスリ ット 62Bから落下する。また粉粒体が落下すると共に、すぐに新たな粉粒体アーチが 形成されてスリット 62Bが閉塞される。粉粒体アーチが崩れてから、再度粉粒体ァー チが形成されるまでにスリット 62Bから流出する粉粒体の量は極微量であるので、容 器内回転部材 80を一定速度で旋回させている間は粉粒体を一定量ずつ供給するこ と力 Sできる。 [0104] The granular materials fed into the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 adhere to each other to form a granular arch that closes the slit 62 ス リ ッ ト. This granular arch is a small diameter of the rotating member 80 in the container. Granules that have collapsed due to external force from the first arch crushing legs 85 and / or the second arch crushing legs 8 6 that swivel in the cylindrical part 12 and have formed the broken granular arch Physical strength S slit Fall from 62B. Also, as the powder falls, a new powder arch is immediately formed and the slit 62B is closed. Since the amount of the granular material flowing out from the slit 62B is very small before the granular material arch is formed again after the granular material arch is broken, the rotating member 80 in the container is swung at a constant speed. During the process, it is possible to supply a certain amount of granular material.
[0105] ところで、容器内回転部材 80 (第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86)を比較的低 速で回転させた場合には、図 30に示すように、底壁 62との間隔が比較的小さい第 1 のアーチ粉砕脚部 85の下端部力 S、スリット 62Bを閉塞した粉粒体アーチを突破して 粉粒体アーチを崩す一方、底壁 62との間隔が比較的大きい第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86の下端部は、粉粒体アーチの上方を素通りするだけで粉粒体アーチを崩す程の 外力を与えることはない。これは、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86の案内により斜め下方、 即ち、底壁 62の上面に向けて流動する粉粒体の勢い(底壁 62の上面に向けて粉粒 体を押し出す力)が小さいからである。よって、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85がスリット 62 Bの上を通過したときだけ小径筒部 12から粉粒体が排出される。 By the way, when the in-container rotating member 80 (the first and second arch crushing legs 85, 86) is rotated at a relatively low speed, as shown in FIG. The lower edge force S of the first arch crushing leg 85 with a relatively small interval breaks the granule arch closing the slit 62B and breaks down the granule arch, while the interval with the bottom wall 62 is relatively large The lower end portion of the second arch crushing leg 86 passes only above the granular arch and does not give an external force enough to break the granular arch. This is because of the momentum of the powder that flows obliquely downward, that is, toward the upper surface of the bottom wall 62 (force to push the powder toward the upper surface of the bottom wall 62) by the guidance of the second arch crushing leg 86. Is small. Therefore, the granular material is discharged from the small diameter cylindrical portion 12 only when the first arch crushing leg portion 85 passes over the slit 62B.
[0106] これに対し、容器内回転部材 80 (第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86)を比較 的高速で回転させた場合には、図 31に示すように、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85のみな らず、第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 86も粉粒体アーチに外力を付与する。これは、第 2のァ ーチ粉砕脚部 86に案内されて斜め下方、即ち、底壁 62の上面に向けて流動する粉 粒体の勢い(底壁 62の上面に向けて粉粒体を押し出す力)が大きくなるからである。 よって、第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85がスリット 62Bの上を通過したときと、第 2のアーチ 粉砕脚部 86がスリット 62Bの上を通過したときとで、小径筒部 12から粉粒体が排出さ れる。即ち、容器内回転部材 80の回転速度を低速から高速へと変化させて、第 1と 第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86の両方で粉粒体アーチを崩すようにすることで、粉粒 体供給装置 90からの粉粒体の排出量を急激に増加させることができる。 On the other hand, when the in-container rotating member 80 (first and second arch crushing leg portions 85 and 86) is rotated at a relatively high speed, the first arch as shown in FIG. In addition to the crushing leg 85, the second arch crushing leg 86 also applies an external force to the granular arch. This is due to the momentum of the powder that is guided by the second arch crushing leg 86 and that flows obliquely downward, that is, toward the upper surface of the bottom wall 62 (the granular material is moved toward the upper surface of the bottom wall 62). This is because the pushing force increases. Therefore, when the first arch crushing leg 85 passes over the slit 62B, and when the second arch crushing leg 86 passes over the slit 62B, the powder from the small-diameter cylindrical part 12 is removed. Discharged. That is, by changing the rotation speed of the inner rotating member 80 from a low speed to a high speed so that the powder arch is broken by both the first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86, The amount of discharged particulate matter from the body supply device 90 can be increased rapidly.
[0107] 上述した粉粒体計量装置 101によって所定量、例えば 10mgの粉粒体を受容器 1 08に量り取る場合には、以下のように操作する。まず、受容器 108を計量器 102の 秤量皿 102 Aに載せ、操作部 102Bを操作して風袋引きを行う。 [0107] When a predetermined amount, for example, 10 mg of powder is measured by the above-described powder particle measuring device 101 to the receiver 108, the following operation is performed. First, the receiver 108 is Place on weighing pan 102A and operate operation unit 102B to tare.
[0108] 次いで、粉粒体の目標重量 (例えば lOmg)を、予め制御装置 103 (本発明の「モ ータ駆動制御部」に相当する)に設定し、図示しないスタートスィッチをオンする。する と、計量器 102の計量値が制御装置 103にフィードバックされ、供給モータ 15の回転 が自動でオンオフしたり回転速度が調節される。 Next, a target weight (for example, lOmg) of the granular material is set in advance in the control device 103 (corresponding to the “motor drive control unit” of the present invention), and a start switch (not shown) is turned on. Then, the measurement value of the measuring instrument 102 is fed back to the control device 103, and the rotation of the supply motor 15 is automatically turned on / off and the rotation speed is adjusted.
[0109] 例えば、制御装置 103は、計量値が lOmgの手前となるまでは、供給モータ 15、即 ち容器内回転部材 80を比較的高速で回転させる。このとき、第 1及び第 2のアーチ 粉砕脚部 85, 86の両方が粉粒体アーチを崩すので、粉粒体供給装置 90から排出 される粉粒体の単位時間当たりの排出量が比較的多くなり、短時間で lOmgの手前 まで粉粒体を量り取ることができる。計量値が lOmgの手前になったときに、制御装置 103は供給モータ 15、即ち容器内回転部材 80の回転速度を低速にする。すると、 第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 85だけが粉粒体アーチを崩すようになるので、微少量ずつ粉 粒体が排出され、計量値を徐々に lOmgに近づけることができる。そして、計量値が 1 Omgに達したときに制御装置 103が供給モータ 15の回転を停止する。 [0109] For example, the control device 103 rotates the supply motor 15, that is, the in-container rotating member 80 at a relatively high speed until the measured value is before lOmg. At this time, since both the first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86 break the powder arch, the discharge amount per unit time of the powder discharged from the powder supply device 90 is relatively high. The amount of powder and granule can be weighed to the level of lOmg in a short time. When the measured value is before lOmg, the control device 103 reduces the rotation speed of the supply motor 15, that is, the rotating member 80 in the container. Then, since only the first arch crushing leg 85 breaks the granular arch, the granular material is discharged little by little, and the measured value can be gradually brought close to lOmg. Then, when the measured value reaches 1 Omg, the control device 103 stops the rotation of the supply motor 15.
[0110] このように、本実施形態の粉粒体供給装置 90によれば、容器内回転部材 80を高 速回転させたたときに第 1及び第 2のアーチ粉砕脚部 85, 86の両方で粉粒体アーチ を崩して粉粒体を比較的多く供給し、低速回転させたときに第 1のアーチ粉砕脚部 8 5だけが粉粒体アーチを崩して粉粒体を微少量ずつ供給することができるので、 目標 重量の粉粒体を正確かつ速やかに量り取ることができる。 [0110] Thus, according to the granular material supply device 90 of the present embodiment, both the first and second arch crushing legs 85 and 86 are rotated when the in-container rotating member 80 is rotated at a high speed. Break up the powder arch and supply a relatively large amount of powder, and when rotating at low speed, only the first arch crushing leg 85 will break the powder arch and supply a small amount of powder. Therefore, it is possible to accurately and promptly measure the target weight of the granular material.

The grooves 21D may be provided radially. As a result, the scraper and the horizontal step surface 21 cooperate to efficiently guide the powder particles toward the small diameter cylindrical portion 12. As shown in FIG. 36C, the same effect can be obtained by providing the protrusion 21E instead of the groove 21D.
