Description

Technical field:

[0001] The invention relates to a high-efficiency filling machine for medical capsules. Background technology:

[0002] Some drugs are irritating to the esophagus and gastric mucosa, or have a bad taste, are easy to volatilize, and are easily decomposed by saliva in the mouth. Therefore, they are usually made into capsules. These drugs are put into capsules, which not only protects the drug properties from being destroyed, but also protects the digestive organs and respiratory tract. Most of the existing capsule production methods are canned by filling machines. During the canning process, these capsules are easy to stick together, causing the filling machine to get stuck during canning and unable to be canned; in addition, the capsules are easy to stick to each other, which also leads to inaccurate counting during canning and cannot be accurately measured. Furthermore, most of the existing filling machines have a single outlet for canning, which not only has a slow canning speed, but also cannot be canned if the outlet fails, greatly reducing the canning efficiency. Summary of the invention:

[0003] The present invention provides a high-efficiency filling machine for medical capsules, which can enable the capsules in the storage bin to move before being bottled, so as to prevent them from sticking together when squeezed for too long; it can not only prevent the capsules in the storage bin from sticking together, causing the capsules to be easily stuck in the filling machine during canning and unable to be canned, but also prevent the capsules from sticking to each other, causing inaccurate counting during canning and the occurrence of problems such as inaccurate measurement; multiple discharge pipes can be canned at the same time, which not only has high canning efficiency and fast canning speed, but also the canning of some of the discharge pipes will not affect the canning conditions of other discharge pipes, thereby realizing fast, accurate and efficient canning, and solving the problems existing in the prior art.
