    Procedure and system for the reduction of poorly positioned olives in the pitting machines, filling and rolling machines of olives (DRR). This invention allows to relocate the olives in "boat", present in the buckets of the food chain, in its correct position to be boned. If this is not possible, the olive is extracted from the food chain. To achieve this double functionality, the DRR machine is modified, removing a part of the brush, and incorporating a detector system, which analyzes and classifies the contents of the bucket, and a pressurized air system capable of driving the olive. A short pulse of air allows the olive to be repositioned to its correct position. A long pulse of air has enough energy for the olive to be extracted from the bucket and redirected to a tank prepared to receive them or directly to the DRR machine feeder.

    [0002] Procedure and system for the active reduction of poorly positioned olives in the pitting, filling and rolling machines of olives.
    [0003]
    [0004] Object of the invention
    [0005] The present invention aims at a method and system for the active reduction of poorly positioned olives in the pitting machines, filling and rolling machines of olives (hereinafter DRR machines). The procedure to be described consists of two stages. The first: detection of those cases of olives that are poorly positioned in the food chain, and the second: active repositioning of said olives or elimination of those cases in which repositioning is not possible.
    [0006] Olive pitting / slicing / filling machines (DRR) are rotary devices that constitute a standard in the table olive sector, appearing described in a considerable number of patents. Succinctly, they consist of: a feeder hopper where the olives to be boned are deposited, a bucket feed chain where the olives are transported (8) to a rotating drum, and there (11), punches extract the bones helped by some shifting rods. Finally the pitted olives are taken to one exit of the machine and the bones to another.
    [0007] These types of machines, because of their way of working, sometimes place the olives to be boned inside the bucket:
    [0008] a) In an incorrect position for boning, which gives rise to the so-called "boats" (4), which are olives where the punch has penetrated the secondary axis of the olive or next to it. This anomaly not only generates A product to be discarded, since it may contain bone chips, but can also cause damage to the DRR machine itself, deteriorating seat beds and punches.
    [0009] b) Positioning several olives in the same bucket or even olives plus pieces of olives (5), (6) and (7). In this case the olives prevent each other from positioning correctly to be boned.
    [0010]
    [0011] Through this invention and as an application of the procedure and implementation of the system, the following will be added:
    [0012] 1) A detector system (12) / (13), capable of classifying olives according to their positioning, located in the food chain (also called conveyor) (8), capable of analyzing the contents of buckets that pass through their area sensor (presence of a single olive well positioned (2) or by boat (4), and capable of detecting the presence of several olives or presence of olives and pieces (5), (6) and (7).
    [0013] 2) A relocation system (14) of the olive poorly positioned in the bucket (boat (4)), which allows the olive to recover its correct position before being boned. This same system allows discarding those olives that will not be able to be repositioned: double or multiple olives / pieces in the same bucket.
    [0014]
    [0015] State of the art
    [0016] It has not been found, after an exhaustive search, a patented industrial process and system such as the one described here aimed at repositioning the olives before being boned by the DRR machine.
    [0017] There are two patents related to the invention:
    [0018] 1. - P201300242 : Whose objective is to monitor and control the operation of the DRR machine during its operation. In this case, the presence or absence of olives in the buckets is analyzed, as well as the integrity of several machine elements: punches and displacer rods.

    [0029] Description of the figures
    [0030]
    [0031] Figure 1 shows the different cases that can occur of olives inside a bucket (3). The olives are pushed by the projection of the link (1) of the tractor chain:
    [0032] Figure 1a : correctly positioned "normal" olive (2). It can be boned normally.
    [0033] Figure 1b : Olive in "boat" (4), in this case it is interesting to reposition it to case 1a.
    [0034] Figure 1c : Double olives (5): Two olives in the same bucket, none are correctly positioned to extract the bone, in fact only the one in the lower part would be in the area of action of the punches. It is interesting to remove them from the bucket before reaching the area of bone of the machine.
    [0035] Figure 1d : Multiple olives in the same bucket (6). This positioning prevents the correct extraction of the bone to all of them, in fact only the one at the bottom would be aligned with the punches. It is interesting to remove them from the bucket before reaching the area of bone of the machine.
    [0036] Figure 1e : Multiple olives and pieces in the same bucket (7). This positioning prevents the correct extraction of the bone to all of them, in fact only the one in the lower part would be in the area of action of the punches. It is interesting to remove them from the bucket before reaching the area of bone of the machine.
    [0037] Figure 2 shows the conveyor (8), the brush (9), the area where the cutting of the brush (10) is to be carried out, to adapt the detection and correction system for the position or extraction of the olive and , finally the final area of the transporter (11) where the boning takes place.
    [0038] Figure 3 shows the two parts into which the brush (15) and (16) have been segmented, the brushless zone (10), the detector that may be on the conveyor itself in contact with it (12), or on it orthogonally without contact (13). The repositioning / extraction system (14) is also shown, this employs pressurized air outlets (17), which can be placed on the conveyor itself (19a), or perpendicularly to it (19b).
    [0039] Figure 4 shows an elevation in elevation (figures 4a, 4b and 4c), and a perspective in plan (figure 4d), of the conveyor, which allows to see in detail the repositioning / extraction system in its possible variants:
    [0040] Figure 4a : The repositioning / extraction system consists of vertical air outlets (19a), practiced at the base of the conveyor and fed by air tubes (18a). Depending on the exposure time of the olive to the air stream, it will be achieved that the olive only moves and relocates in the bucket (short time, see figure 5a), or that it shoots vertically (long time, see figure 5b) . The olive in the latter case, is driven by a bent tube (around 90 °), made a deposit ex profeso or back to the feeder of the DRR machine.
    [0041] Figure 4b : In this case, a horizontal extraction system is shown where a lateral portion of the conveyor guide (about the size of a bucket) has been removed, to allow the olive to exit from the side. This system can be combined with the repositioning system shown in Figure 5a. The air outlets (19b) and air tubes (18b) are arranged on the other side. The angled tube (around 90 °) outlet (21), is now arranged horizontally.
    [0042] Figure 4c : In the event that the pressurized air system is insufficient or the size of the olives is large, it may be interesting to provide the vertical ejection system with vertical rotary vanes (23), synchronized with the passage of the bucket, of in this way the olive that is driven vertically is collected by the vanes and ejected laterally through the angled tube (22).
    [0043] Figure 4d : Alternatively, the pallet system can be horizontal (24), and located above the bucket. Its movement is also synchronized with the passage of the bucket and allows the olives to be extracted on the side of the conveyor (25).
    [0044] Figure 5a : The olive that must be repositioned receives a short pulse of air when it reaches the area of the vertical ejector (19), this short pulse of air (26) does not allow the olive to leave triggered vertically and trapped by the system of expulsion, but if it serves to reposition it inside the bucket.
    [0045] Figure 5b : When there are several olives / chunks in the bucket or the single olive present exceeds the capacity of the bucket in size and is fitted, it is interesting to extract the entire contents of the bucket and eject it. This figure shows the case of a vertical expulsion by means of a long pulse of air (27), which is maintained during the passage of the bucket in its entirety. This expulsion could also have followed the horizontal model of Figure 4b.
    [0046] Figure 6 : When the bucket passes through the "n" position (28), the image of its contents is obtained. Depending on the device used to capture the image (12) or (13), the image to be formed can be require prior processing, in this case this function would be carried in the "n + 1" (29) position of the bucket. Finally, when the bucket passes through position "n + 2" (30), the repositioning process for olives in "boat" occurs (4) by air firing in a reduced time interval (26), or the total extraction of the contents of the bucket by means of a long shot (27).
    [0047] The phases of the procedure associated with the numbering in the figures are described below:
    [0048] Phase 1 of the procedure (capturing an image with the contents of the bucket)
    [0049] The detection system adapts to the movement of the machine and to the passage of the bucket in studio "n" (28), taking a picture of its contents.
    [0050] Phase 2 of the procedure (analysis of the contents of the bucket)
    [0051] The captured image is analyzed in real time during the "n + 1" position (29), to determine which case is presented:
    [0052] - Correctly positioned "normal" olive (2).
    [0053] -Olive in "boat" (4).
    [0054] -Various olives in the same bucket (5) and (6).
    [0055] -Olives and pieces of olives in the same bucket (7).
    [0056] Phase 3 of the procedure (relocation / removal of the contents of the bucket)
    [0057] In the case of olives in "boat" (4), the repositioning system (17), (14), acts by redirecting the olive to the "normal" position (2). In the case of several olives / pieces in the same bucket (5), (6) and (7), the system empties the entire contents of the bucket through the extractor elements installed in the DRR machine in any of its possible embodiments: (20), (21), (22) / (23) and (24), using blowers (19a), (19b), located on the conveyor (8).
    [0058]
    [0059] Description of the invention
    [0060] Based on Figure 3 and the three described phases of the procedure, the invention would consist of the addition of a case detector (12) or (13) (in the analyzed bucket "n" (28)), to an area of the Conveyor with the cut brush (10), in which a repositioning / expulsion system (17), (14) has also been added, this would allow, as a novelty, the possibility of choosing between repositioning the olives by boat or extracting those They should not be boned.
    [0061] The detector system (12) or (13), is able to adapt to the speed of movement of the machine and extract at each step of a new bucket an image of the content of the machine (phase 1), to be processed in real time and so make a classified in four cases (phase 2).
    [0062] If the detector system has been positioned in an "n" position, the repositioning / ejection system will generally be located in an n + k position, with k = 1, 2, ..., depending on the availability of space that allows the DRR machine according to each manufacturer, so that the corrective action is delayed in time depending on the distance from the viewing area "n" (28), to the repositioning / ejection zone (n + k), (usually with k = 2) .
    [0063] The corrective action (provided by the corrective device) consists of:
    [0064] a) For olives in "boat" (4): in hitting the olive with a short-term jet of air (26), with this the olive in "boat" (4) acquires enough energy to reposition itself in the bucket before from entering the bone area (11) of the DRR machine.
    [0065] b) For multiple olives / pieces (5), (6) and (7): in a jet of air that lasts all the time it takes to pass the bucket (27), with it the olives / pieces (5), (6 ) and (7), are beaten and acquire enough energy to be expelled from the bucket which would be empty and clean through one of the means provided for it (20), (21), (22) / (23) and (24).
    [0066]
    [0067] Preferred embodiment of the invention
    [0068] The example to be described is not limiting and is shown as a simple embodiment of the invention without loss of generality.
    [0069] The preferred system described among the multiple possible, will correspond to the location of both elements (detector (13) and corrector / extractor (14)), in the final area of the conveyor and with correction of the position of the olive by vertical expulsion of air through several outlet nozzles (19a), practiced on the feeder track (8). The ejected olives / pieces will be collected by means of a cranked tube (90 °) (20).
    [0070] In the area of the conveyor (8) to be used, the brush (10) has been removed. The detector (13) (a linear scanner), is located on a support and looks orthogonally to the track of the conveyor in the area where the bucket would pass in study "n" (28). After the passage of the bucket, the detector system classifies the type of case in the position "n + 1" of the bucket (29), and proceeds to send the corresponding corrective action when that bucket passes through the position "n + 2" (30), which is where the exits have been located of air (19a) practiced on the feeder (8):
    [0071] -No action for correctly positioned olives ("normal") (2).
    [0072] -Short air pulse (26), for olives in "boat" (4).
    [0073] -Long air pulse (27), (the passage time of the complete bucket), for cases of several olives / pieces present (5), (6) and (7).
    [0074] The olives that are raised vertically (5), (6) and (7), are collected by a bell with an elbow at 90 ° (20), which allows the olives to be redirected to the DRR machine feeder.
