Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a device for transporting various working means within greenhouses, glass greenhouses, etc.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, devices for spraying pesticides on greenhouses, etc.
-Disclosed in Publication No. 4462, etc.

However, such conventional transfer devices require a full-fledged structure for installing carriers and moving rails for transferring pesticide spraying equipment, and when assembling them, they are difficult to assemble compared to the structure of a greenhouse. However, it was expensive.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to complete a transfer device that does not require special precision in assembly, has a small number of parts, can be easily assembled, and is capable of automatically transferring a considerable amount of material. .

[Means to solve the problem]

Referring to the attached drawings showing the attached embodiments, the transfer device of the present invention is mounted oppositely on support rods 9 fixed to a plurality of substantially vertical columns 1 to form a rail receiver. Two parallel pipe-shaped rails 2 are mounted on the support rod 9 between the two receiving fittings 11 so as to be movable in the horizontal direction between the two receiving fittings 11; A carrier 4 running above, and a hanger 3 attached to both carriers 4 and provided spanning both pipe-shaped rails 2.
and pulleys 6 provided near both ends of the pipe-shaped rails 2, and attached to the carrier 4,
Further, it is characterized by comprising a wire rope 5 which is stretched between each of the pulleys 6 and whose movement can be stopped by driving and stopping a motor 7.

[Function] Therefore, the transfer device of the present invention can be installed not only in a greenhouse for growing vegetables, but also in an open space by installing a simple support, and the rail itself can be made flexible. By holding and installing it, it can be easily assembled and installed, and when using this transfer device to spray various chemicals, simply hang the spray device on a hanger and move it as desired. This makes it possible to safely and reliably perform chemical spraying, irrigation, etc. for growing vegetables.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the overall structure of an example in which a transfer device 10 of the present invention is installed in a plastic greenhouse.

Referring to the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes columns, and a plurality of pipe-shaped columns are installed at appropriate intervals inside the greenhouse shown by dotted lines. At this time, the pillars of the plastic greenhouse can be used as they are as the pillars 1. Reference numeral 2 indicates a pipe-shaped rail installed inside the pillar 1 at a position lower than the ceiling of the greenhouse to allow for some degree of horizontal movement. Reference numeral 3 indicates a mountain-shaped hanger fixed to a carrier 4 that moves on both pipe-shaped rails 2 and spanning between both pipe-shaped rails. It has a structure that allows it to move and stop at any time between the front end A and the rear end B.

5 indicates a wire rope for moving the carrier 4 of this hanger 3. This wire rope 5 is suspended from pulleys 6 attached to supports 1 at both ends of both pipe-shaped rails 2, and is stretched in an endless state so as to be freely movable. Carriers 4 at both base ends of the hanger 3 are fixed to portions of the wire rope 5 that move in the same direction. By driving the motor 7 attached to the pillar 1 at the front end of the greenhouse, the wire rope 5 can be moved in any direction and the carrier 4 mounted on the pipe-like rail 2 can be driven. Further, the arrangement of the pulleys 6 is adjusted so that the carrier 4 on the other side also moves in the same direction by the rotation of the endless wire rope 5, as shown by the arrow. 4
and the other carrier 4 is driven at the same speed.

2 and 3 are views showing details of the carrier portion of the hanger 3. FIG.

Figure 2 is a view from above in Figure 1, and
The figure shows a view taken from the - line in FIG.

As shown in these figures, the support column 1 is made of a pipe material of a size large enough to form a plastic greenhouse, and a support rod 9 is fixed to it with a U-bolt 8.

A receiving metal fitting 11 is fixed to the support rod 9 by welding or the like, and the members face each other at a distance considerably larger than the diameter of the pipe to form a rail receiving member. Place it. As a result, the pipe-shaped rail 2 placed in the receiving bracket 11 can be moved from side to side horizontally with respect to the mounting direction at its central portion, and can be mounted with considerable flexibility in the horizontal direction. It turns out.

4 to 6 show examples of installed pipe-shaped rails 2 in longitudinal section.

Referring to FIG. 4, the pipe-like rail 2 is a pipe unit 2 having connection fitting parts 21 and 22 at both ends.
3 are mutually fitted and connected. Also, 24
is a wire that tensions the plurality of pipe units 23 that are fitted and connected. This wire 24 has a locking rod 25 locked to the pipe unit 23 at one end, as shown in FIG. 5, and a cap 27 at the other end, as shown in FIG. bolt 2
It is locked at the end of 8.

Returning again to FIGS. 2 and 3, the carrier 4 has rolls 41 at the front and rear that embrace the pipe-like rail 2 from both the inside and outside, and a roll 41 that carries the pipe-like rail 2 from above. They each have a roll 42. Furthermore, the upper platform 4 of the carrier 4
A wire rope 5 is fixed under 3,
This carrier 4 follows the movement of this wire rope 5.

In addition, the turned portion 5 of the endless wire rope 5
1 can run and move on the upper platform 43 of the carrier.

The hanger 3 is fixed onto the upper stand 43 of the carrier 4 by means such as welding.

Since the transfer device 10 of the present invention has the above configuration, for example, a disinfectant spraying device is hung on the hanger 3, and the wire rope 5
begins to move, and as the carrier 4 fixed thereto moves, the hanger 3 moves. hanger 3
Also, the reversibility of the hanger 3 can be stopped at any position by stopping the movement of the wire rope 5 by stopping the motor 7, and automatic operation is possible by installing limit switches at both ends of the house. Become. Furthermore, the movement of the hanger 3 can be freely set by switching between automatic and manual modes. This enables automatic spraying of chemicals and irrigation without any personnel present. This enables automatic spraying of chemicals and irrigation without any personnel present.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The following effects can be achieved by the transfer device of the present invention.

(1) Since the rail and the rail holder are not fixed, the rail width is flexible, and even if the spacing between the supports is slightly off, the carrier mechanism will adjust it when the carrier passes, allowing safe travel.

(2) When installing the rail, there is no need to strictly adjust the rail width, and the number of parts for assembly is small, so assembly is extremely easy and installation can be done in a short time.

(3) When installing the drive motor, since the drive motor itself is fixed, there is no need to arrange a current-carrying wire like a trolley, and there is no fear of electric shock.

(4) Since the pipe-shaped rail is jointed by tightening with wire, there is no need for metal fittings, welding, drilling, etc. at each joint.

(5) Since the carrier and the pipe-shaped rail are sandwiched between the rollers of the carrier, there is no possibility of the carrier falling off due to derailment.

(6) The transport device of the present invention is light and simple, can withstand considerable gravity, and can be transported over a considerable distance, so it can be used in greenhouses,
It can be applied not only to various operations inside glass greenhouses, etc., but also to a wide range of applications such as filter cultivation operations by providing support.
