Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a transportation device in an artificial snowfall device such as an environmental test of a vehicle or an experience dome.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional snowfall reproduces snowfall, snowstorms, etc. by spraying fine water droplets from a nozzle at the intended use place to freeze them.

[0003]

Since the snow generated by the conventional snowfall device is a spherical or spherical aggregate in which water droplets are frozen, it cannot be made to have the same snow quality as natural snow.
Moreover, because it is not possible to make the required amount of snowfall at the required locations, it was not possible to reproduce the accumulation of snow and blizzards in the cold regions.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems] To solve the above problems
The idea of the present invention is to use artificial snow from inside the artificial snow production storage.
Install an artificial snow carrier that has a drain port to the destinationLaying
And cold / hot air coilWhenInsulation duct with fan
It is characterized by being connected to an artificial snow carrier.

[0005]

According to the invention of the present application having the above-described structure, the artificial snow produced by the artificial snow producing device is conveyed to the intended place without melting, and after the required amount of the artificial snow is finished, warm air is blown into the artificial snow conveying device. It is possible to melt the remaining snow. Then, the melted residual snow can be discharged from the drain port, and cold air can be sent to dry the inside of the artificial snow transport device to bring it into the same state as before transport.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The invention of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, an artificial snow production device 1 and a snow leveling conveyor 13 are provided in an artificial snow production storage 12, and a cooling coil 23 and a cooling fan 24 are provided to prevent the artificial snow from melting.

The artificial snow generating device 1 includes a plurality of snow making plates 2.
A cooling coil 3, a fan 4 and a humidifier 5 are provided, the snow making plate 2 is a hollow box having a brine inlet 8 and a brine outlet 9, and a scraping brush 7 is provided on the surface thereof. The cooling coil 3 and the fan 4 are housed in a box 6 having an air inlet / outlet port.

[0008] In this embodiment as for transporting the artificial snow 26, and to, if snow and conveyor 13 and the first conveyor 14 to second conveyor 15.

The snow leveling conveyor 13 rotates an annular belt in the artificial snow production storage 12.
The artificial snow 26 is provided on the conveyor table 16 and is surrounded by the partition 17 so that the artificial snow 26 can be easily transported.

Further , the first conveyor 14 and the second conveyor 15 have a single spiral wing centering on the shaft provided over both ends of the cylindrical body, and have a drain port 25 and a valve at one end. An outlet 27 is provided.

[0011] The first conveyor 14 is connected with partition plate 17 and the cylindrical body 18 so as to be able to recover the artificial snow 26 conveyed from to if snow conveyor 13 in the artificial snow generation storage compartment 12, further second conveyor It is connected to 15.

[0012] The second conveyor 15 is provided from the artificial snow generation reservoir 12 inside until the intended use location 10,
Artificial snow discharge having a valve 21 in the intended use location 10
Exit 22 is provided.

[0013] The thermal insulation duct 20 provided with a cold-warm air coil 19 to one end of the artificial snow in the generated reservoir 12 and the fan 28
The other end of is connected to the second conveyor 15.

[0014] The first conveyor 14 and the second conveyor
Make sure that the artificial snow that is being transported does not melt in the Nvea 15.
There are various means for
Some of them are not shown in the figure.

When the invention of the present application is implemented from the above configuration,
The air cooled by the cooling coil 3 in the artificial snow generator 1 is blown by the fan 4. The cold air circulates artificial snow generating device 1 with a fine water droplets generated from the humidifier 5, water droplets on the surface of Seiyuki plate 2 is attached becomes ice crystals.

[0016] By scraping by scraping brush 7 provided ice crystals that this adhering to the surface of the Seiyuki plate 2, natural this snow and homogeneous artificial snow 26 is produced.

The artificial snow 26 thus generated is separated by the partition plate 17.
If enclosed by snow in Ru collected on the conveyor 13. snowy
The artificial snow 26 deposited on the live conveyor 13 does not melt
The cold air cooled by the cooling coil 23 as described above
And circulate at 24.

The artificial snow 26 that has accumulated is the snow leveling conveyor 1
By the rotation of 3, the first transport conveyor 14 is passed through the tubular body 18.
Is transported to the stocker 11 of the intended use place 10 from the artificial snow outlet 22 via the second conveyor 15.

At the intended use place 10, artificial snow can be stored in the stocker 11, and by using a fan or the like, the snowstorm by the artificial snow 26 can be reproduced.

[0020] Artificial After conveyance completion of snow 26 flows air warmed by the cold-hot air coil 19 in the artificial snow generation reservoir 12 to the second conveyor 15 via the adiabatic duct 20 by the fan 28, the discharge port Hot air is discharged from 27.
At this time, the remaining snow in the second conveyor 15 is melted and collected in the drain port 25.

[0021] After discharging the snow was melting from the drain port 25,
Cold air cooled by the cold-hot air coil 19 flows to the second conveyor 15 via the adiabatic duct 20 by a fan 28, first, drying the inside second conveyor 14, 15. Therefore, the first and second conveyors 14,
In 15 it is returned to the state prior to transporting the artificial snow 26 may carry repeated artificial snow 26 to the desired location.

[0022] Incidentally, it is possible by laying conditions of the second conveyor 15 branches the adiabatic duct 20 on the way to connect to the necessary portions of the second conveyor 15.

[0023]

As described above, the artificial snow carrier according to the present invention
The feeding device includes a first conveyor 14 and a second conveyor 1.
After carrying the artificial snow 26 using 5, the artificial snow generation storage 12
The warm air from the cold / warm air coil 19 inside is blown from the fan 28 into the both conveyors to melt the remaining snow, and the drain port 2
This is discharged from No. 5 , and the inside of the both conveyors is dried by blowing cool air from the fan 28.

[0024] Thus, when performing a re-transport while leaving the remaining snow of the transfer conveyors, by freezing or melting due to snow, can be prevented from becoming impossible to transport, free the repeated artificial snow 26 to the desired location Can be supplied to.
