CONSTITUTION:This extruder is characterized by providing an inserting and taking out port 16 for the die 2 at the side face of the extrusion container 4, to the conventional extruder provided with a die 2 at the bottom of an extrusion container 4 and a press plate 5 to extrude the raw material 13 of incense sticks in the extrusion container 4 to mold incense sticks.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in a box-shaped extrusion device for incense molding, which was developed for the purpose of easily dealing with clogging of a die during extrusion molding.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional incense stick forming and extruding device is described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-148524, and a similar device is shown in FIG. 6, but a die 20 is arranged on the bottom surface of the extruding container 4. Then, the pushing plate is pushed by the hydraulic cylinder 12 and the like, and the incense stick raw material 13 in the container is pressure-extruded from the die 20 to form the incense stick 17.

In such an extruder, when clogging occurs during extrusion molding of incense sticks, the pressing plate 5 is raised to the upper end by the hydraulic cylinder 12 and the incense stick raw material 13 in the container is taken out, Finally dice 20 or filter 21
The stick 20 was taken out, the clogging portion of the die was cleaned, and the die 20 and the filter 21 were again placed on the bottom surface of the extrusion container 22, and the incense stick extrusion molding work was redone.

In this case, since the work is difficult, the extrusion work is continued while taking out the defective product in the clogging part, and after the extrusion work is completed, the die is taken out and the clogging part is cleaned, and the good product is molded in the next work. In many cases, the method of doing

[0005]

In these above-mentioned conventional methods, loss of the incense raw material occurs, the yield of the product is poor, and the work is complicated and troublesome, so that manual work must be relied upon. Therefore, it is difficult to fully automate the manufacturing process, which significantly reduces work efficiency.

The present invention is intended to eliminate unnecessary work due to clogging of dies in a conventional apparatus and play a role in automation of incense stick production. Even when clogging occurs in the die, kneading is performed. It was examined that the die can be cleaned and the extrusion operation can be continued again without taking out the incense raw material afterwards.

[0007]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention employs the following configurations. That is, the die 2 is arranged on the bottom surface of the extrusion container 4, and the die 2 is inserted and removed on the side surface of the extrusion container 4 with respect to the device for extruding the incense raw material 13 in the extrusion container 4 by pressing with the pressing plate 5. Exit 16
The incense stick extrusion device is characterized by being provided with.

[0008]

The extruding device for incense stick molding according to the present invention is such that even if the die 2 is clogged, the dice 2 provided on the side surface of the extruding container 4 does not take out the incense stick raw material 13 after kneading. By pulling out from the insertion / extraction port 16, cleaning it, and then inserting the die again from the side, there is an effect that the clogging is eliminated and the extrusion operation can be continued.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a fragmentary front view of an incense stick molding extruder according to the present invention. In this device, an extrusion container 4 is provided on a support base 1 having a product passage hole in the center, and a die 2 is provided on the bottom surface thereof.
Are arranged. On the top surface of the die 2 is a filter 3 which can be seen in detail in FIG. On the support base 1, a cylinder 12 is provided on a cylinder attachment plate 11 supported by four columns 6, and a push plate 5 is provided at the lower end of the rod. Inserting / extracting the die 2 on the lower side surface of the extrusion container 4
6, and a feed rod insertion port 15 is provided on the opposite side. Each of them usually has a lid 7 on the side for keeping it closed. The lid 7 is provided at the tip of the rod that can advance and retreat in the support sheath 10 fixed to the column 6. Therefore, the lid 7 can be opened by pulling the knob at the upper end of the rod.
The lid 7 may be moved back and forth by a cylinder.

FIGS. 2 to 4 are side sectional views showing a main part of the process in which when the die is clogged, the die and the filter are pulled out from the side surface of the extrusion container, cleaned and then inserted again. As is clear from these figures, when the die or filter is clogged, first the lids 7, 7 on both sides are opened as shown in FIG. 2, and then the feeding rod 8 seen on the left side is used to feed the rod. The tip of 14 is inserted into the extrusion container 4 from the feed rod inlet 15. The feeding device 8 may be fixedly provided on the support base 1 or may be a detachable type installed on the support base 1 each time it is used, but in this example, it is the former. The feeding device 8 is configured such that the feeding rod 14 advances or retracts by a rack and pinion driven by a motor.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the feed rod 14 of the feed device 8 advances (moves to the right) and pushes the die 2 from the insertion / extraction port 16 provided on the side surface of the extrusion container 4. The filter 3 is output to the outside. Then, clean the clogging. At this time, the incense raw material 13 remains in the extrusion container 4 as it is due to its viscosity and the sealing property of the pressing plate 5, and does not drop.

When the cleaning of the clogging is completed, the die 2 and the filter 3 are pulled into the extrusion container 4, and in that case, the feed rod 14 needs to pull the die 2. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, a connecting hole 14a is provided at the tip of the feed rod 14, and the die 2 is also provided with a connecting hole 2a. A U-shaped connecting piece 9 that can be inserted and connected across these connecting holes 2a and 14a is used.
When the feed rod 14 and the die 2 are connected by this U-shaped connecting piece 9 and the feed rod 14 is retracted (moved leftward) by the feed device 8, the die 2 and the filter 3 are pulled into the extrusion container 4. Becomes

Dies 2 and filters 3 into extrusion container 4
Since it is necessary to remove the U-shaped connecting piece 9, the drawing is performed so that the connecting portion slightly protrudes toward the feeding device side from the normal position when the incense stick is pushed out, as shown in FIG.
In this state, the U-shaped connecting piece 9 is removed, and the feed rod 14 returns it to the position for normal extrusion. With this simple operation, the incense stick extruding operation can be resumed.

[0014]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION With the above configuration and operation, the extrusion work can be continued by only cleaning the die or the filter without the need to take out and recharge the incense raw material in the extrusion container. Is improved and the number of defective products is reduced.

Since it is easy to remove the die alone or the die-integrated case, it is less troublesome and can be frequently cleaned and defective products can be prevented from occurring. In addition, the amount of manual work is reduced, which further contributes to automation of incense stick production, thus improving workability.
