Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a paper feed pallet support for a collator.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the collator, when replenishing paper, an operator moves the paper stacked on the pallet to the paper feeder of the collator and puts it on it, but when the amount of paper on the pallet decreases, the operator He has to bend over and pick up the paper, which makes him very tired.

Further, the pallet is carried by a carrying device as shown in FIG. In FIG. 6, reference numeral 1 is a hand truck, which can raise the forks 3 and 3 (about 10 cm) by operating the handle 2. Further, front wheels 4, 4 are attached to the lower surfaces near the tips of the forks 3, 3, and rear wheels 5 are attached to the lower surface of the rear portion of the main body.

Further, in FIG. 6, 6 is a pallet, and the height L ₁ of the support plates 6a, 6a on the lower surface thereof is usually 10 cm. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, the pallet 6 is supported by inserting the forks 3, 3 of the hand truck 1 between the support plates 6a thereof. The distance L ₂ between the lower surface of the support plate 6a of the palette and the ground when the forks 3 and 3 of the hand truck 1 support the pallet 6 and rises is about 9.5 cm.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and it is possible to receive a pallet transported by a hand truck as it is and to gradually increase the height of the pallet according to the remaining amount of paper on the pallet. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a sheet feeding pallet support for a collator, which is capable of solving the above problems.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Therefore, the gist of the present invention is the vertical section.

[Outside 2] -Shaped member having a U-shape in plan view, a projecting ridge formed in a right-angled portion inside thereof, and a guide portion provided on each inner wall of parallel portions extending toward the open side. It is connected to a base that is formed in a U-shape in plan view and has its peripheral edge raised, and a guide rail is provided on the inner surface of the raised portion of the parallel portion that extends toward the open side, in an X-shape by a pivot, and one end is A pair of support rods pivotally attached to the receiving portion and the non-opening side portion of the base and the other end side of which is connected to a roll guided by the guide rail, and pivotally attached to the non-opening side portion of the base. , A collimator sheet feed pallet support consisting of a hydraulic cylinder having the tip of its piston rod pivotally attached to the tip of the flat part of the receiving part described above.

[0007]

[Action]

 Next, the operation of the present invention will be described. When the hand truck enters the central part from the open side portion of the inventive support and lowers the fork, the supporting plate of the pallet supported by the hand truck is supported by the receiving part of the inventive support. After this, the hand truck will be retracted and used again to transport a new palette.

When the amount of paper on the pallet decreases, the switch is turned on to operate the hydraulic cylinder. As a result, the receiving portion gradually rises, and when the switch is cut at a desired position, it is held at that height. Also, when all the paper is used up, the pallet is removed from the receiving section and the switch is turned on again to lower the receiving section.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a plan view of a first embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which a receiving portion is lowered, and FIG. It is a perspective view of the state where it was made to stand.

In the figure, 7 is a support, and the total thickness L ₃ is 7.5 cm in this embodiment. The support base 7 is composed of a receiving portion and a base, which will be described later. Reference numeral 8 denotes a receiving portion, which is formed in a U-shape in a plan view and has rectangular projecting ridges 9 and 9 formed in an inner right-angled portion. The projecting ridges 9 and 9 serve to reinforce the parallel portions 8'and 8'extending toward the open side when a load is applied to the parallel portions 8'and 8 '. Further, the protruding ridges 9 and 9 serve as a cover of a hydraulic valve (not shown) when descending, and the front wheels 4 and 4 abut on this to position the forward position. Therefore, even when the operator's view is blocked, the operator can accurately enter the desired position. Furthermore, when the projecting ridges 9 and 9 move backward while lowering the forks 3 and 3 of the hand truck 1, the front wheels 4 and 4 can push the front wheels 4 and 4 to move the hand truck backward. It is possible to easily descend without interposing the ends of the rakes 3 and 3.

The receiving portion 8 has a vertical cross section.

[Outside 3] Each of the parallel parts 8 ', 8'which are formed with a shaped member and extend towards the open side is provided with a guide rail 10, 10 on its inner wall.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a base, which has the same planar shape as that of the receiving portion 8 described above. It should be noted that the size is formed to be slightly smaller than that of the receiving portion 8. Further, the base 11 has its peripheral edge raised, and guide rails 12, 12 are provided on the inner surfaces of the raised portions of the parallel portions 11 ', 11' extending toward the open side.

Reference numerals 13 and 14 denote a pair of support rods, which are connected to each other by a pivot 15 in an X shape. The support rods 13 and 14 are pivoted at one end side to the non-open side portions of the receiving portion 8 and the base 11 described above, and the other end sides are guided by the guide rails 10 and 12. It is connected to the base 17, 17.

Reference numerals 18 and 18 denote hydraulic cylinders, which are pivotally attached 19 to the non-open side portion of the base 11, and the tips of the piston rods 18 a are the tips of the parallel portions 8 ′ and 8 ′ of the receiving portion 8. Is anchored in. The hydraulic cylinders 8, 8 are operated by a hydraulic device (not shown), and are operated by a foot pedal type switch or a push button type switch.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 5 will be described. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that in this embodiment, the receiving portion 8 is provided with an auxiliary receiving portion 8a parallel to the parallel portions 8'and 8 '. Since the other structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, the same parts are designated by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention has the structure and operation as described above, it is possible to receive the pallet transported by the hand truck as it is, and it is possible to raise the receiving part that supports the pallet by a switch operation, thus increasing the height of the pallet. It can be gradually raised according to the remaining amount of paper. Therefore, the labor of the worker required for the paper feeding work can be significantly reduced.
