DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a can press for compressing empty cans such as juice or beer.

[0002]

Conventionally, a press chamber in which a pressurizing body to be slid reciprocally is installed, an opening / closing door for opening and closing an empty can in the press chamber, and an empty can formed by compressing the empty can. An open / close discharge door for taking out the block was provided, and a plurality of empty cans were put into the press chamber by opening and closing the input door, and the empty cans in the press chamber were crushed by a pressurized body to form an empty can block. When the press chamber is formed in a size that allows compression of an empty can having a capacity of 18 liters, the capacity is reduced to about 0.1.
When crushing empty cans such as 2 liters of juice, the size of empty can blocks formed tends to change due to the increase or decrease in the number of empty cans put into the press room, and empty can blocks are stacked in multiple layers vertically and horizontally In addition, the storage and transportation operations cannot be simplified easily, and the number of empty cans compressed per operation tends to be smaller than the actual compression capacity, and it is not easy to improve the work efficiency. Was.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention provides a press chamber in which a pressurizing body is slid up and down, an openable and closable input door for inserting an empty can into the press chamber, and an empty chamber. In a can press with an openable discharge door for taking out an empty can block formed by compressing a can , throw it into one side of the press chamber.
Provided the incoming door and the discharge door vertically, a quantitative tray to put empty cans of the amount of one time can be compressed in the press chamber, put the door
It is installed outside the upper machine frame, and the fixed amount tray is
To the outside of the machine frame.
Part is formed as a shutter that can be opened and closed to
When the can is opened, the shutter
When empty cans are compressed in the press room, the next empty can to be compressed can be put in the fixed quantity tray and put on standby, simplifying the work of putting empty cans in the press room. Can be easily performed, and almost constant quantity of empty cans can always be put into the press room, and almost constant size empty can blocks can be easily obtained, improving empty can compression work efficiency and storing empty can blocks. In addition, simplification of the carrying operation and the like can be easily achieved.
