Problems solved by technology

Therefore, when the food is deformed by external force when the food is dropped, not only the commodity value is damaged due to the deformation of the food, but also the prescribed loading position in the container may be deviated.
As a result, useless spaces may be created between foods, and between foods and the inner wall of the container, resulting in reduced food storage efficiency.

no. 1 approach

[0048] figure 1 It is a top view schematically showing the overall structure of the food packaging device according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The food packing device of the present embodiment is introduced into, for example, a food production site. Such as figure 1 As shown, the packaging apparatus for foods is constituted by a robot 11 including a pair of robot arms (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as “arms”) 13 , 13 . Hereinafter, the direction in which the pair of arms are opened is referred to as the left-right direction. The direction parallel to the axis center of the base axis is referred to as an up-down direction. The direction perpendicular to the left-right direction and the up-down direction is referred to as the front-rear direction.

[0049] A first conveyor 51 and a second conveyor 52 are arranged in front of the robot 11 . The first conveyor 51 is a device for transferring the food 40 to the start of the second conveyor 52...

[0076] Hereinafter, a second embodiment will be described. The basic structure of the holding device 10 of the foodstuff 40 of this embodiment is the same as that of 1st Embodiment. In the following, the description of the configuration common to the first embodiment will be omitted, and only the different configuration will be described.

[0077] Figure 10 It is a figure which shows the packing apparatus of the food concerning 2nd Embodiment of this invention. Figure 11 yes means Figure 10 A diagram of the structure of the end effector 18A of the right arm 13. Such as Figure 11 As shown, the end effector 18A of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment ( Figure 4 ) for comparison, the difference is that the lengths of the pair of holding members 22 in the longitudinal direction (herein the up-down direction) are the same (refer to Figure 11 (B)), but the other structures are the same, so detailed description is omitted.

Abstract

This food boxing device is a device for boxing a food in a container having an open top surface. The food boxing device is provided with: a food supply part comprising a holding section configured soas to be capable of holding or releasing the food; a food guide part that has a main surface and that is configured so as to be capable of guiding the food in a predetermined direction; and a controldevice that controls operation of the food supply part and the food guide part. The control device controls operation of the food supply part and the food guide part so that food held by the holding section is released from a predetermined height, one side surface of the food is brought into contact with the main surface of the food guide part and the direction in which the food drops is thereby restricted to the direction of the bottom surface of the container, another side surface of the food that has dropped into the container is brought into contact with the main surface of the food guidepart and the food is moved while in this state in a first direction leading from the side surface in contact with said main surface toward the other side surface, and the food is aligned in a predetermined boxing position within the container.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a packing device for food. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known an apparatus for loading foods into containers such as trays. Patent Document 1 discloses a food container filling device. This device drops foods from a conveying conveyor to a conveying unit in a predetermined posture, and puts them sequentially in a container while maintaining the standing posture of the foods. In addition, Patent Document 2 discloses a packing device for food. In this device, a plurality of foods (rice balls) are lifted upward by an adsorption unit, the suspended foods are moved to a predetermined packing position, and the suction is released to pack in a box. [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-24408 [0004] Patent Document 2: Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2011-251702 [0005] Generally, foods such as rice balls and sandwiches are packaged with packaging materials s...
