Abstract:
A combination weighing device includes a calculation means, a normal discharge means, a sample selection means, and a sample discharge means. The calculation means selects a plurality of types of articles according to a predetermined ratio and the weights thereof. The sample selection means selects specific types of articles from amongst the plurality of types of articles selected by the calculation means. The sample discharge means discharges the specific types of articles selected by the sample selection means.
Abstract:
The combination weighing apparatus is an apparatus that conducts combination weighing of articles based upon weight data from a plurality of weight hoppers, and is comprised of a plurality of supply buckets that supply articles to any of a plurality of weighing hoppers, a rotation mechanism that rotates the supply buckets so that they move along an arrangement of the weighing hoppers in a weighing area, and a control computer. The control computer controls the supply of articles from the supply buckets inside the weighing area to the weighing buckets, and from amongst the plurality of weighing hoppers that request a supply of articles, priority is given to the weighing buckets that are downstream in the direction of rotation, and article supply takes place. In a combination weighing apparatus that supplies articles from supply buckets that rotates with respect to weighing hoppers, preventing difficult situations such as articles being supplied to predetermined weighing hoppers, and improving the accuracy of combination weighing.
