Description

[Detailed description of the invention] - Industrial application field - The present invention relates to a viscous material filling device, and more specifically, relates to a viscous material filling device suitable for filling a small amount of viscous material such as paint. .

- Prior Art - As is well known, when filling liquids containing viscous substances such as paint, a liquid filling machine is used to fill containers such as cans while applying pressure to the liquid. However, there is no problem since the work is relatively quick.

However, if we receive a large order and only a small amount of paint of the same color is ordered after the filling process is completed, we will clean the hopper for the small amount of paint and then fill several cans. However, since the viscosity of the paint is very high, it takes a long time to fill it by gravity, and if the worker is working on other equipment during that time, it may accidentally overflow, which may eventually cause damage to other equipment. This is extremely inefficient as the operator has no choice but to concentrate on filling a small amount of paint at the expense of other work.

-Problems to be solved by the invention- The purpose of the invention is to solve the above-mentioned problem that it takes a long time to fill a small amount of viscous material, and to provide a filling machine that can quickly fill viscous material. It is in.

-Means for Solving the Problems- In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention includes a pedestal, a decompression chamber provided on the pedestal with one side open, and a device that can be moved into the decompression chamber from an open port. a weighing platform capable of controlling the amount of viscous material to be filled into the volume on the weighing platform, the vacuum chamber having a supply pipe communicating with the hopper; The present invention is proposed to have a control unit that controls the opening and closing of a supply pipe from a hopper, etc., and to quickly fill a container on a weighing platform with a viscous substance by reducing the pressure in a vacuum chamber.

-Example- Hereinafter, details of an example of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. First, in FIG. 1, reference numeral 4 is a frame having casters 11,
A decompression chamber 2 is mounted on this pedestal, and one side of this decompression chamber 2 is an open port 21. A weighing platform 3 that can be moved into the decompression chamber 2 through the opening 21 is movably mounted on the pedestal 1.
On the opposite side of the opening 21, there is a closing lid 31 large enough to close the opening 21.

Next, to explain each part in detail, the pedestal 1 is equipped with casters 11 and can move freely.
This frame 1 has a guide rail 13 laid along its longitudinal direction, and is equipped with a moving platform 14 that can move along this guide rail 13, and this moving platform 14 is equipped with an air cylinder. The movable table 14 can be moved along the guide rail 13 by expanding and contracting the unit 15.

A decompression chamber 2 is mounted on one end of the pedestal 1, and this decompression chamber 2 has an opening 21 on the side facing the weighing platform 3, which will be described in detail later. can be introduced into the internal space and sent out. The top of the decompression chamber 2 has a supply pipe 22 which can communicate with the hopper X of the mixed paint, and the inside thereof is communicated with a vacuum pump so that the internal space can be depressurized. The internal pressure of this decompression chamber 2 is displayed by a vacuum meter 23, and by operating a decompression operation button 24, it is possible to start and end depressurization inside the decompression chamber.

Furthermore, a weighing table 3 is mounted on the movable table 14 in a cantilevered manner by a column 31. Container Y is loaded. In particular, on the side of the weighing platform 3 near the column 31, there is a closing lid 34 large enough to close off the opening 21 of the decompression chamber 2. At the same time, when the weighing platform 3 moves into the decompression chamber 2, the closing lid 34 closes the opening 21.

Further, at the end of the pedestal 1, there is a control box 4 for programmatically controlling the expansion and contraction movement of the air cylinder unit 1, and can control the introduction and delivery of the container Y, the movement of the movable table 14, and the like.

A roller conveyor 5 is provided as an auxiliary equipment to the above-mentioned filling device, and is configured to be able to carry out transport operations associated with the introduction and delivery of the containers Y.

Next, the filling operation will be explained. First, when the air cylinder 15 is in the extended state, the movable table 14 has moved by the limit stroke to the end of the pedestal 1, and the weighing table 3 on the movable table 14 is waiting for the container Y to be loaded. From this state, the weighing platform 3 is introduced into the decompression chamber 2 together with the container Y by deflating the air cylinder unit 15. At the same time as the air cylinder unit 15 completes deflation, the closing lid 34 closes the decompression chamber 2.
The opening 21 of the container Y is closed, and pressure reduction is started by operating the pressure reduction operation button 24, and paint is supplied from the hopper X to the container Y via the supply pipe 22 and filled. By reducing the pressure in the vacuum chamber 2, the paint flows down rapidly, and the time required to fill the container is extremely short.

When the specified amount is filled, press the decompression operation button 2.
4 is completed, and the air cylinder unit 15 is extended to send the container Y together with the weighing platform 3 out of the decompression chamber 2. The container Y is sent out from the loading table 33 via the roller conveyor 5.

- Effects of the invention - As is clear from the above explanation, the viscous material filling device of this invention has a weighing platform mounted on a movable platform,
This weighing platform is introduced into a decompression chamber and the inside thereof is depressurized to fill the container with the viscous material from the hopper, so the time required for filling is extremely short and efficient.
