Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1-3 , a batching device for soft capsule production, including a batching device 1, the batching device 1 includes a mixing tank 11 and a tank cover 12 installed at the top end of the mixing tank 11. A slotted opening 15 is provided at the lower end of the mixing tank 11, and a receiving component 14 is provided inside the slotted opening 15.
[0025] At the inner bottom end of the can lid 12, a hollow inner circular block 121 is installed. At the top end of the hollow inner circular block 121, an air pipe 122 is installed through. At the top end of the can lid 12, an air extraction pump 13 is installed, and the top end of the air pipe 122 is installed at the air outlet end of the air extraction pump 13. At the bottom end of the hollow inner circular block 121 and on one side close to the inner wall of the can lid 12, a bent pipe 123 is installed through. At the lower end inside the can lid 12, an inner circular block 126 is installed. At the bottom end of the bent pipe 123, an insertion pipe 124 is installed, and the lower end of the insertion pipe 124 penetrates through the middle end of the inner circular block 126.
[0026] On the inner wall of the mixing tank 11, a side pipe 111 is installed. A pipe groove 112 is opened through the middle end of the side pipe 111. On the outer side of the bottom end of the insertion pipe 124, a rubber ring 125 is installed. The rubber ring 125 is stuffed into the inside of the pipe groove 112. The positions of the insertion pipe 124 and the side pipe 111 are aligned. The hollow inner circular block 121 and the bent pipe 123 are used to divide the extracted air.
[0027] On the outer side of the mixing tank 11, a feed pipe 17 is installed through. At the top end of the feed pipe 17, a hopper 16 is installed, and the discharge port of the feed pipe 17 is at the lower end of the side pipe 111. The material is poured into the inside of the insertion pipe 124. The air extracted by the air extraction pump 13 blows the material flowing into the inside of the mixing tank 11, facilitating material mixing.
[0028] At the bottom end of the hollow inner circular block 121, a motor 127 is installed. At the output end of the motor 127, an inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128 is installed. Inside the mixing tank 11, an inclined surface ring 113 is installed. At the bottom end of the inclined surface ring 113, a rubber ring 114 is installed, and the bottom end of the inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128 is at the same height as the bottom end of the inclined surface ring 113. After the material enters the mixing tank 11, it is scattered. After being stirred by the external pipe 118, the material is mixed more fully.
[0029] On both sides of the bottom end of the inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128, inclined surface rods 129 are installed, and the top ends of the inclined surface rods 129 are at the discharge end of the bent pipe 123, scattering the material flowing into the inside of the mixing tank 11.
[0030] In this embodiment: After the inclined plane rod 129 and the side pipe 111 are misaligned with the can lid 12, as the inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128 and the inclined plane rod 129 move downward, the insertion pipe 124 and the rubber ring 125 are inserted into the inside of the pipe groove 112. When the can lid 12 contacts the mixing tank 11, the material receiving member 14 is moved into the inside of the slot 15, and the raw materials after bearing are poured into the inside of the insertion pipe 124. The air pump 13 and the motor 127 start to operate. The raw materials are discharged into the inside of the mixing tank 11 through the feed pipe 17. The air extracted by the air pump 13 is shunted through the hollow inner circular block 121. The air blows to the raw materials in the mouth of the feed pipe 17 through the bent pipe 123, the insertion pipe 124 and the pipe groove 112 to disperse the raw materials. The raw materials are also dispersed by the rotating inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128 and the inclined plane rod 129, and mixing starts from the beginning of raw material feeding, reducing the time for stirring the raw materials.
[0031] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an internal rod 115 is horizontally installed inside the mixing tank 11. An external pipe 118 is horizontally installed inside the mixing tank 11 on the outer side of the internal rod 115. Lower sliding grooves 119 are opened on both sides of the lower end of the external pipe 118. Rotating rings 116 are movably installed on the outer sides of both ends of the internal rod 115. Semi-circular blocks 117 are respectively installed on the outer sides of the two groups of rotating rings 116. The rotating rings 116 are arranged inside the external pipe 118, and the semi-circular blocks 117 are located inside the lower sliding grooves 119 to limit the rotation angle of the semi-circular blocks 117. When one end of the semi-circular block 117 moves downward, it is convenient for the mixed material to be discharged into the inside of the material receiving member 14. The bottom end of the inverted T-shaped stirring rod 128 contacts the top end of the external pipe 118.
[0032] The material receiving member 14 includes a material receiving tank 141 and a material transporting frame 146 penetrating and installed on the outer side of the lower end of the material receiving tank 141. A cylinder 142 is installed at the bottom end inside the material receiving tank 141. A top cylinder 143 is installed at the top end of the cylinder 142. A card slot 144 is horizontally penetrated and opened at the top end of the top cylinder 143. Positioning rods 145 are installed on both sides of the cylinder 142 at the bottom end inside the material receiving tank 141, and the upper ends of the positioning rods 145 penetrate through the top cylinder 143. The expansion and contraction of the cylinder 142 drives the top cylinder 143 to move up and down. The card slot 144 is stuck on the outer side of the external pipe 118, and the top end of the top cylinder 143 contacts the bottom end of the semi-circular block 117.
[0033] In this embodiment: Before feeding, the receiving tank 141 is moved into the interior of the slot 15, the cylinder 142 extends, and the upper top cylinder 143 will move upward along the positioning rod 145. After the external pipe 118 is located inside the card slot 144, both sides of the top of the upper top cylinder 143 push up the semi-circular blocks 117, causing the semi-circular blocks 117 to come into contact with the rubber ring 114 to carry the raw materials. After the mixing is completed, the cylinder 142 contracts, and one end of the semi-circular block 117 moves downward due to its own gravity and the gravity of the mixture, facilitating the mixture to be discharged into the interior of the receiving tank 141 through the inclined surface ring 113 and the rubber ring 114. As the cylinder 142 expands and contracts, one end of the semi-circular block 117 moves up and down, driving the rotating ring 116 to rotate between the external pipe 118 and the internal rod 115. The provided downward chute 119 restricts the downward movement of the semi-circular block 117, and the moving semi-circular block 117 generates vibration, facilitating the mixture to fall. The operator can collect the mixture in the receiving tank 141 through the material transport frame 146.
[0034] Working principle: The insertion pipe 124 and the rubber ring 125 are inserted into the interior of the pipe slot 112. The receiving tank 141 is moved into the interior of the slot 15. Both sides of the top of the upper top cylinder 143 push up the semi-circular blocks 117, and the semi-circular blocks 117 come into contact with the rubber ring 114, which can carry the raw materials. The weighted raw materials are poured into the interior of the insertion pipe 124. The air pump 13 and the motor 127 start to operate. Air is blown through the bent pipe 123, the insertion pipe 124, and the pipe slot 112 towards the raw materials in the inlet of the feed pipe 17. The rotating inclined surface rod 129 also disperses the raw materials, starting the mixing from the beginning of the raw material feeding, reducing the time for stirring the raw materials. After the mixing is completed, the cylinder 142 contracts, and one end of the semi-circular block 117 moves downward due to its own gravity and the gravity of the mixture. The mixture is discharged into the interior of the receiving tank 141 through the inclined surface ring 113 and the rubber ring 114. As the cylinder 142 expands and contracts, one end of the semi-circular block 117 moves up and down, and the moving semi-circular block 117 generates vibration, facilitating the mixture to fall.
