AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing rotary tablet presses have long conversion times when changing materials, sizes or shapes, or work stations, and the accessibility and cleanliness of auxiliary components are poor, making accurate positioning difficult, especially in multi-layer production.

Method used

A suspension device, including a support plate and connecting elements, is used to suspend the auxiliary components above the upper punch guide of the turntable. Support is provided by non-rotating parts connected to the turntable, which improves the cleanability and drainage of the auxiliary components and allows the position of the auxiliary components to be adjusted using a leveling device.

Benefits of technology

It improves conversion efficiency, simplifies the installation and adjustment process of auxiliary components, enhances the accessibility and cleanliness of the equipment, ensures accurate positioning of auxiliary components, and adapts to multi-level production needs.

Abstract

In a rotary tablet press (1) having a turret (10), a support assembly includes a suspension device (60) positioned above the upper punch guide of the turret (10), as seen in the axial direction. The suspension device (60) includes a carrier plate (65) and at least one connecting element (61, 62) connecting the carrier plate (65) to at least one non-rotating part of the turret (10). The support assembly is used to suspend a number of auxiliary components (12) on the carrier plate (65). An enclosure (70) can be connected to the suspension device (60) to surround one or more of the elements of the turret (10).
