Abstract:
A magnetic chip conveyor of the present invention reduces the possibility that both end portions of a long chip are adsorbed by two or more types of magnets having different magnetic forces, so that a long chip does not remain. An endless chain is disposed on the rear surface of a plate, so as to be wound around sprocket wheels. The sprocket wheel is rotated in the counterclockwise direction by a motor, and the endless chain rotates in the counterclockwise direction. Twelve magnet holders are fixed to the endless chain at equal intervals. Three types of permanent magnets having different magnetic forces are bonded and fixed to the magnet holders.

Claim (Index 1):
A magnetic chip conveyor, comprising:\n a plate made of a non-magnetic material, configured to make a chip of a magnetic material be placed on a front surface of the plate, guide the chip from one end of the plate to other end of the plate, and discharge the chip to the other end; a plurality of magnets, disposed on a rear surface of the plate at constant intervals along a direction from the one end to the other end, and adsorbing the chip on the front surface of the plate; and a magnet movement mechanism, configured to simultaneously move the plurality of magnets from the one end to the other end, so as to move the chip from the one end to the other end, wherein the magnets are disposed, such that the magnets having different magnetic forces are adjacent to each other.
