Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a container for treating hay, and more particularly to a container capable of carrying rush and carrying out mud dyeing and drying.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 After being harvested in the field, igusa, which is the raw material for the tatami table, is transported to a mud dyeing site where mud dyeing is performed for glossing and then drying is performed. Therefore, the present applicant previously proposed a container for performing mud dyeing and drying of rush (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-31907). This is a container for transporting rush, which can be used as it is as a container for mud dyeing and as a drying chamber, so that mud dyeing and drying can be performed as a series of work with good workability. .

In this container, a container 1 (reference numeral is incorporated by reference) is stored in a mud dyeing treatment tank 4, and then mud water is injected into the mud dyeing treatment tank 4 to gradually increase the water level of the mud dyeing treatment tank 4. In order to prevent the grass from floating due to the buoyancy received from the mud, the presser member 17 should be used from above so that the grass will not float up. It is designed to be held down.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The above-mentioned conventional container performs mud dyeing by gradually raising the water level of the mud water in the mud dyeing treatment tank as described above to completely immerse the rush in the mud water. FIG. 7 shows a cross section near the top of the container when the grass A is immersed in the muddy water while gradually raising the water level in the mud dyeing treatment tank. The reference numerals in the figure are the same as those in the above publication. When muddy water is injected into the mud dyeing tank and the water level is gradually raised, the air inside the container gradually flows out from the top of the container as indicated by the dashed arrow, but all the air is completely discharged. Does not flow out to the outside, and a part of it does not stay on the lower surface of the pressing member 15, and an air pocket (a) is generated on this lower surface. For this reason, there was a problem in that the upper end of the weeds A existing in the air reservoir (a) could not be immersed in muddy water, and the upper end was not mud dyed. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a container for treating weeds, which eliminates the occurrence of the above-mentioned air pool and allows the upper end portion of the weeds to be completely immersed in muddy water.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 For this reason, the present invention covers the upper part of the side plate 4 of the container 1 rotatably around the hinge part 20 and holds the upper end of the grass A housed in the container 1 to hold the upper part of the grass 15 in place. An air venting means 31 for letting out the air inside is formed.

[0006]

[Action]

 In the above configuration, when the container 1 is stored in the mud dyeing treatment tank 10 and muddy water is injected, the water level of the muddy water gradually rises, and the grass A stored in the container 1 is gradually dipped in the muddy water. At this time, the air in the container 1 flows out to the outside as the water level rises, but part of the air tends to stay on the lower surface of the holding member 15. However, since this air also flows out through the air venting means 31 formed in the holding member 15, no air pool is generated on the lower surface of the holding member 15, and the upper end of the weed A is completely immersed in the muddy water. Then mud dyeing is performed.

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a container for treating grass, in which four casters 3 as legs supporting the base 2 are attached to the base 2 and side plates 4 are provided on both sides thereof. It is constructed by standing. The base 2 is formed with ventilation holes 5 assembled in a lattice shape to ensure ventilation, and warm air is blown up from the ventilation holes 5 in a drying process described later. Reference numeral 11 denotes a grass fall prevention plate, which is not a mesh or a perforated plate disposed on the base portion 2 and has water permeability and air permeability.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a horizontal bar as a partition member that is bridged between the left side plate 4 and the right side plate 4, and is inserted into the side end portion of the side plate 4 so as to be freely inserted and removed. A frame 40 as a means for supporting the rush A is provided on the side of the container 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the frame body 40 is formed by horizontally arranging three horizontal bars 42 between columns 41. The lower end of the support column 41 is rotatably attached to the side plate 4 by a pin 43. A lock pin 44 is removably inserted into the upper end of the column 41. In FIG. 1, 7 c is a pin hole opened in the side plate 4.

Therefore, when the lock pin 44 is inserted into the support column 41 through the pin hole 7c, the frame body 40 holds the upright state and supports the grass A leaning against the frame body 40 so as not to fall. Further, when the lock pin 44 is removed, the frame body 40 becomes rotatable around the pin 43. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 8 is a plate-like skirt portion that is vertically provided on both sides of the base portion 2, and forms a hot air passage as will be described later when drying grass. A pressing member 9 is attached to the skirt portion 8 by a pin 10 and is made of a flexible spring material.

In FIG. 1, the side plate 4 is configured by connecting an upper plate 4 a and a lower plate 4 b with a hinge 12, and the upper plate 4 a can be opened and closed by rotating outward about the hinge 12. ing. Reference numeral 13 is a rectangular tube body axially attached to the outer surface of the side plate 4, and 14 is a locking rod body that can be inserted into and removed from the tubular body 13 by inserting the rod body 14 into the tubular body 13. However, when the rod 14 is taken out, the upper plate 4a is rotatable outwardly around the hinge 12 when the rod 14 is taken out.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 29 is a connecting member which is attached to both side portions of the side plate 4, and is for connecting adjacent side plates 4 to each other in a drying process described later. Reference numeral 15 is a lid-shaped pressing member which is covered on the upper part of the container 1 during the mud dyeing treatment to prevent the rush from floating due to buoyancy. It is detachably connected to the side plate 4 of the container 1. Of course, the shape and structure of the pressing member 15 are not limited to this embodiment. Reference numeral 19 is a stopper provided upright in the center of the front portion of the holding plate 15, and 20 is a protrusion as a hinge portion protruding from both sides of the rear portion of the holding plate 15. FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the pressing member 15. On the bottom surface of the pressing member 15, a large number of rectangular pipes 31 as air venting means are arranged in a row. As shown in FIG. 4, a slit 32 is formed in the pipe 31 along the length direction thereof. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view during the work. In the figure, 30 is a sludge treatment tank, and locking tools 26, 28 are provided on the upper part thereof. Reference numeral 22 is a hook of the lift device.

The container 1 has the above-mentioned structure, and the processing operation of grasses for which the container 1 is desired will be described below. The container 1 storing the rush A is put in the mud dyeing treatment tank 30 to perform the mud dyeing treatment. This mud dyeing treatment is similar to the method described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 31317/1993, and will be briefly described below with reference to FIG. The wire 22 attached to the holding member 15 is hooked with the hook 22 of the lift device, and the lift device is operated to store the container 1 in the mud dyeing treatment tank 30. At this time, the mud dyeing treatment tank 30 is empty. Next, the projection 20 is engaged with the hinge portion 28, the pressing member 15 is rotated counterclockwise around the projection 20 to engage the stopper 19 with the locking tool 26, and the container 1 is covered with the pressing member 15. Then, hold down the rush A. Then, a pump (not shown) is driven to cause the muddy water to flow into the muddy dyeing treatment tank 30, and the grass A stored in the container 1 is dipped in the muddy water for several tens of seconds. Then, although the rush A has a large buoyancy in the dirty water, since it is pressed by the holding member 15 fixed to the mud dyeing treatment tank 30, the rush does not float. When the mud dyeing is completed, the pump (not shown) is driven to drain the mud water in the mud dyeing treatment tank 30. Next, the stopper 19 is removed from the locking member 26, the projection 20 is removed from the fixture 28, and the container 1 is lifted by the lift device and taken out from the mud dyeing treatment tank 30. Next, the container 1 is landed on the floor surface, the pressing member 15 is removed from the container 1, and then the container 1 is manually pushed to move to the next drying step while rolling the floor surface.

By the way, when the container 1 is stored in the mud dyeing treatment tank 30 and muddy water is injected, the water level of the muddy water gradually rises, and the grass A stored in the container 1 is gradually dipped in the muddy water. At this time, the air in the container 1 flows out to the outside as the water level rises, but part of the air tends to stay on the lower surface of the holding member 15. However, since this air flows out to the outside through the air venting means 31 formed in the pressing member 15 (see the broken line arrow in FIG. 5), no air pool is generated on the lower surface of the pressing member 15, and the upper end of the weed A is also not formed. It is completely immersed in muddy water for mud dyeing. The air bleeding means is not limited to the pipe 31 of the present embodiment, and it suffices if the pressing member is formed with an air passage through which air in the muddy water can flow out.

When the mud dyeing process is completed, drying is subsequently performed. This drying is performed in the same manner as that described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-31906. That is, a plurality of containers 1 are arranged in parallel to form a drying chamber, and hot air heated by a heating furnace is sent to the lower side of the container 1. Then, the warm air is blown upward from the ventilation port (see FIG. 1) 5 while passing through the passage below the pedestal portion 2 constituted by the skirt portion 8, and the rush A is dried. By the way, as a result of the applicant's experiment, it was found that the grazing in the container was able to perform uniform drying without unevenness of drying in the tilted posture in which it was laid down at a considerable tilt angle rather than in the standing posture. The frame 40 is means for changing the grass from the standing posture to the inclined posture during the drying of the grass, and its operation will be described next.

FIG. 6 shows a state in which the containers 1 are arranged side by side to form a drying chamber. In the figure, the rush shown by A1 shows a state in which the frame 40 is locked by the lock pin 44. In this state, the frame body 40 is standing upright, and therefore, the weeds leaning against the frame body 40 are standing upright (inclination angle θ1) as indicated by symbol A1. Next, when the lock pin 44 is removed, the frame body 40 becomes rotatable around the pin 43, and the rush is released from the supporting state by this frame body 40, and is slightly laid down to the right as indicated by symbol A2. Yes (tilt angle θ2). Next, as the drying progresses, the grass becomes weak in its waist and gradually inclines greatly as indicated by the symbol A3 (inclination angle θ3). With the progress of such drying, if the rush I is changed from a standing posture to a posture in which it is inclined at a considerable inclination angle, uniform drying without unevenness in drying can be performed as described above. The means for leaning the vegetation A is not limited to the frame 40 described above. The point is that the rush A is leaned against a supporting means such as the frame 40 in a substantially upright posture during transportation or mud dyeing, and when it is dry, it is supported. It suffices if the grass A can be laid down at a large inclination angle by releasing the supporting state by means.
