Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" This invention relates to a storage box for cut straw grass.

``Conventional technology'' Conventionally, in the mud dyeing and drying work of harvested straw grass, the naked straw grass was manually inserted into the mud dyeing machine, carried out,
In addition, the materials are inserted into and removed from the dryer manually. As a result, the mud adhered to the workers and they became covered in mud, making it unsanitary.The dryer also sucked in fine particles of dried mud inside the dryer, making it extremely unsanitary. Therefore, there were defects that made it difficult to improve the efficiency of mud dyeing and drying operations. For this reason, a container was developed in which the harvested straw was tied together and stored in layers horizontally (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 56-2105).
However, in a horizontal storage container, because the strawberry bundles are laid down and stacked one on top of the other, the difference in diameter between the stump and the tip of the head causes errors in the distribution of the dyeing solution, which not only makes it difficult to dye evenly, but also has a significant impact on quality. There was also a problem that uneven drying occurred during drying due to rising wind.

For this reason, it is possible to store the straw bundles vertically, but the tip (upper end) rises due to buoyancy, making it impossible to dye sufficiently, and when pressed from above with a stopper, the tip ends up being damaged or deformed. .

``Problems that the invention attempts to solve'' This invention can store cut strawberry bundles vertically in a box,
The purpose is to obtain mud-dyed strawberry bundles of good quality that can be mud-dyed and dried in the box to reduce the amount of input required.

``Means for solving the problem'' A fork insertion part is opened in the bottom side of the bottom-opening box, and a fluid circulation bed is provided above the insertion part,
A strawberry storage box is also provided with a side presser for vertically storing strawberries on the upper part of the same floor.

``Effect'' Therefore, 1 box of 20 pieces of grass that has been cut and tied into small pieces.
Place the same strawberry 20 vertically on the fluid circulation bed 3 inside.
is housed inside the box 1, and the side surface of the same rush 20 is held in a state of being pressed against the first inner surface with a presser 4. In this state, insert the fork 5 of the forklift into the insertion part 2, lift it up and convey it, and move it to the mud dyeing machine 14.
Insert the box 1 into the mud dyeing chamber 15. Mud dyeing room 15
is sealed and muddy water is provided in the same chamber 15, but the muddy water flows from the fork insertion part 2 to the lower end opening 1' of the box 1.
Then, the straw grass 20 that is stored in the box 1 passes through the circulation bed 3 and ascends inside the box 1, and is immersed in muddy water to perform mud dyeing. After that, the muddy water is drained from the inside of the box 1, so the box 1 is placed on the drying table 17 of the dryer 16 using a forklift and hot air is blown through the lower end opening 1'.
The stored rush 20 is then passed through the circulation bed 3 and dried. The rush 20 is prevented from floating due to the buoyant force of the muddy water and the rising hot air because it is held by the presser 4. After drying, the stored rush grass 20 is taken out from the box 1, tied into large bundles 18, and stored 19 in a warehouse.

"Example" An insertion part 2 into which a fork 5 of a forklift is inserted is opened in the lower side of a steel plate open bottom box 1.
A fluid circulation bed 3 made of slats, perforated plates, mesh plates, etc. is provided above the insertion part 2. An opening/closing door 6 is provided on the upper side of the circulation floor 3, and the lower edge of a presser plate 8 is pivoted with pins on an edge plate 7 provided inside the opening/closing door 6, and is fastened to both sides of the plate 8. Attachment string 9,
9 are connected, and the same strings 9, 9 are connected to metal fittings 10, 10 provided on the inner surface of the box 1 to form the storage straw presser 4. The presser 4 may be a rubber cord with both ends connected between the metal fittings 10, 10. 11 in the figure is a fork receiving plate installed in the insertion part 2, 12 in FIG. 2 is a strawberry field, 13 is a truck, 14 is a mud dyeing machine, 15 is a mud dyeing room, 16 is a dryer, 17 is a drying table, 18 is a binding process, and 19 is a storage process.

In FIG. 1, the opening/closing door 6 is opened, the presser plate 8 is hung down to the position of the imaginary line in the figure, and in this state, a large number of small bundles of straw grass 20 that have been cut on the distribution floor 3 are placed and stored vertically on the rear presser. Raise the board 8 to the solid line position in the same figure and move the strawberry grass 20.
The rush 20 can be fixed inside the box 1 by holding down the sides of the box 1 and tying a tightening string 9 inside the box 1. A plurality of boxes 2 are placed in parallel on the drying table 17, and fine dust is collected using a bag filter.

``Effects'' Since the present invention is constructed as described above, by storing the cut straw grass 20 vertically in the box 1, it can be transported mechanically by a forklift, eliminating the need for manual handling of bare straw grass, and There is an advantage that muddying and drying of the vertically stored straw grass 20 inside the box 1 can be done evenly by circulating muddy water or warm air from the above-mentioned circulation bed 3.
