Capsule feeding mechanism

Abstract

The invention provides a capsule feeding mechanism which comprises a capsule feeding portion, a transmission mechanism portion and a capsule hopper portion. The capsule feeding portion comprises a sequencing fork, a capsule guiding groove and a pushing fork. The transmission mechanism portion comprises a cam support, a linear cam, a guiding block, a guiding support frame and a guiding rod, two rows or more than two rows of vertical channels are arranged on the sequencing fork, the channels are distributed in a stepped mode, a row of vertical channel is arranged on each step, the sequencing fork further comprises a main board, a fork head and a capsule switch, wherein the lower end of the main board is in a reversed stepped shape. The capsule guiding groove comprises guiding groove bodies, blocking plates and fixing components used for connection, each guide groove body is in a stepped shape, the number of the steps is the same as that of steps of the sequencing fork, the blocking plates are respectively fixed on the guide groove bodies, holes distributed in the stepped shape are formed in each guide groove body, the number of the holes is the same as that of the vertical channels of the sequencing fork, and the positions of the holes and the vertical channels correspond. According to the capsule feeding mechanism, the number of rows for capsule feeding is added on one station, work efficiency of a single station is improved, one or multiple stations are eliminated, space is saved for other functions and later development of the machine, and capsule feeding condition can be monitored manually anytime conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to pharmaceutical machinery, in particular to a capsule filling machine. Background technique [0002] Capsule filling machine is a pharmaceutical machinery integrating machine, electricity and gas. It generally adopts the form of automatic intermittent rotary motion. The turntable installed in the center of the workbench rotates at a speed of 6-140 revolutions per minute, and there are multiple short stops per revolution. Time, the turntable transports the capsules to the various workstations around the turntable. During the short stay at each workstation, various operations such as capsule broadcasting, capsule separation, waste capsule removal, filling, capsule locking, capsule ejection, and mold cleaning are automatically carried out at the same time. Capsule filling machines usually use capsule filling machine modules to carry capsules during capsule filling, such as figure 1 , figure 2 , image 3 As shown, the existing c...

Problems solved by technology

However, the two-row and multi-row capsule machines continue to use the single-row capsule broadcasting method on the capsule broadcasting mechanism, and only broadcast one row of capsules at a time in one station (such as Figure 4 As shown), this takes up one or more stations, causing unnecessary restrictions on the development of other functions of the two-row or multi-row capsule machine.

With the development of the diversity of capsule fillings, there are more and more needs to fill several different materials in the same capsule, and one material will occupy one station. Obviously, the current capsule machine is due to the Occupies part of the workstations and limits the increase in material types
