Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" This invention relates to a rice serving machine installed directly below a rice metering machine.

``Conventional technology'' In conventional rice serving machines, in order to measure the rice in a measuring box, the top and bottom of the box are cut with a shutter to measure the amount of rice, and the rice is directly dropped into the bowl below, so the rice is formed into the shape of the measuring box. It is stored in the bowl without being interpreted. For this reason, it was necessary to manually arrange the rice in the bowl.

``Problems to be solved by the invention'' This invention aims to provide a rice serving machine that can evenly distribute and serve the measured amount of rice that has been measured in a measuring bowl and formed into a bowl shape.

``Means for solving the problem'' This proposal supports a horizontal rotating frame on the machine frame, forms a space for the falling rice to pass inside the frame, and provides a rice tray in which a rotating stirring tool is installed in the frame. It's on the machine.

``Operation'' Therefore, when the horizontal rotating frame is rotated, the stirring rod rotates in the horizontal direction, and when the lower shutter of the metering chamber is opened directly above the above space, the rice mass formed in the shape of the same chamber is placed in the same space. At this time, the rice mass is broken up by the rotating stirring rod and is stored in a broken state in a bowl arranged below.

``Embodiment'' A cylindrical box 3 is provided at the bottom of a hopper 2 provided on a machine frame 1, and horizontal opening/closing shutters 4, 5 are provided on the top and bottom of the box 3. The shutters 4 and 5 each pass through a horizontal slit 7 formed in the upright wall 6 of the box 3, and a shutter operating cylinder or arm 8 is connected to the outside of the upright wall 6, and the upper and lower shutters 4 and 5 are opened and closed alternately. A rotating rod 9 for pushing rice is provided on a horizontal rotating shaft 10 directly above the upper shutter 4. A short cylindrical horizontal rotating frame 11 is arranged directly below the cylindrical box 3, a donut ring 12 is provided on the outer periphery of the frame 11, and upper and lower horizontal grooves 13, 14 are formed on the outer periphery of the ring 12. The donut ring 12 and rotating frame 11 are rotatably supported on the machine frame 1 by three rotating guide rollers 15 that engage with the lower horizontal groove 14, and the drive belt 16 is connected to the upper horizontal groove 13 and the reduction motor 17. The rotary frame 11 can be rotated in the direction of arrow a by being wound around a pulley 19 provided on the output shaft 18 of the rotary frame 11. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is preferable that a plurality of arm-shaped stirring devices 20 be provided in the internal space s of the rotating frame 11 and tilted downward toward the center of the internal space s of the frame 11. It may be horizontal, and the stirring tool 20 may be a wire stretched over the inner surface of the frame 11, or may be a thick wire mesh.

Therefore, the electric motor 17 is started to rotate the horizontal rotating frame 1.
1 and the stirring tool 20 in the horizontal direction, and open the lower shutter 5 to lower the quantitatively formed rice mass in the cylindrical box 3, the rice mass passes through the internal space s of the frame 11, and at this time the rotation The shaped rice lump is broken down by the stirring tool 20 and placed in the bowl 21 below.

"Effects" Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when the quantitatively formed rice mass passes through the falling rice passage space s, the rice mass is broken down by the rotary stirrer 20 and dispersed into small lumps, which are then transferred to the bowl below. The rice bowls 21 are arranged in a natural state, and there is no need to unravel them manually, so it is possible to improve the efficiency with which the rice bowls 22 are arranged.
