Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of medicinal capsule production, in particular to an automatic capsule lubrication and gas delivery system based on intelligent control, belonging to the technical field of industrial automation and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of medicinal capsules, in order to ensure smooth operation of the capsules in subsequent processes, it is usually necessary to add a lubricant to the capsule surface to reduce the surface friction coefficient, and to efficiently transport the capsules to different processing links through a gas delivery system. However, the existing technology has the following problems: Uneven spraying of lubricant: Traditional lubricant spraying method usually adopts fixed amount spraying, which cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the surface state of capsules. It is easy to cause waste due to over-spraying, or insufficient spraying resulting in insufficient smoothness of capsule surface, which affects the conveying efficiency and capsule quality.

[0003] Limited performance of gas delivery system: Existing gas delivery systems are mostly designed with fixed parameters, which are difficult to adapt to the real-time changes in the number, arrangement and movement state of capsules during the delivery process, and can easily lead to blockage, capsule damage or reduced delivery efficiency during the delivery process.

[0004] Lack of coordinated control: In the existing technology, lubricant spraying and gas delivery are usually operated independently, and there is a lack of linkage control between the two. When the spraying is excessive, the delivery resistance may increase, and the change in delivery speed may affect the uniformity of the spraying. This mutual influence has not been effectively solved.

[0005] To solve the above problems, a system combining intelligent control technology is needed, which can dynamically optimize the lubricant spraying and gas delivery through multi-sensor data acquisition and real-time control algorithm, and realize the synergistic linkage between the two to improve production efficiency and the quality stability of capsule products. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the problems of uneven spraying of lubricant, low gas delivery efficiency and lack of linkage control between spraying and delivery in the prior art, and provides a capsule automatic lubricant and gas delivery system. The system dynamically optimizes the capsule surface lubricant processing and delivery process through multi-sensor data acquisition, intelligent control algorithm and module collaborative linkage, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0007] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a capsule automatic lubricity and gas delivery system, comprising a lubricity agent spraying module, a gas delivery module and a coordinated control module: A slip agent spraying module, comprising an edge detection unit and a PID control unit, wherein the edge detection unit is used to detect the smoothness state of the capsule surface in real time, and the PID control unit dynamically adjusts the spraying amount and spraying angle of the slip agent according to the detection result; A gas delivery module, comprising a pressure sensor, a gas pressure regulating device and a dynamic PID control unit, wherein the pressure sensor is used to monitor the gas flow pressure in real time, and the dynamic PID control unit dynamically adjusts the gas flow intensity and flow rate according to the pressure deviation to achieve stable delivery of the capsule; The collaborative control module includes a Kalman filter and an adaptive PID control unit. The Kalman filter is used to fuse the sensor data of the lubricant spraying module and the gas delivery module. The adaptive PID control unit is used to dynamically optimize the spraying amount and airflow parameters of the lubricant according to the fused data to achieve collaborative control of spraying and delivery.

[0008] Preferably, the edge detection unit uses a Canny edge detection algorithm to perform image processing on the capsule surface to identify the spray target area, and the calculation formula is: ; in and is the grayscale gradient value in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0012] Preferably, the Kalman filter in the collaborative control module fuses the multi-sensor data, and the state update formula of the filter is: ; Update steps: , in, is the estimated value of the state after filtering, is the sensor measurement value, is the Kalman gain.

[0013] Preferably, the system includes an anomaly detection module, which detects insufficient spraying, excessive spraying or capsule delivery blockage based on sensor data and automatically triggers an alarm signal.

[0014] Preferably, the spraying angle θ is dynamically adjusted according to the distance between the capsule and the spraying device, and the calculation formula is: , in, and are the horizontal and vertical distances between the spraying device and the capsule, respectively.

[0015] Preferably, the gas delivery module optimizes the gas flow parameters by the gas flow sensitivity α, and the sensitivity calculation formula is: , Where P is the air flow pressure and V is the air flow velocity.

[0016] The present invention achieves the following significant technical effects through the collaborative work of the lubricity agent spraying module, the gas delivery module and the collaborative control module: 1. Accuracy and uniformity of lubricant spraying: The present invention uses an edge detection algorithm to detect the surface state of the capsule in real time, and dynamically adjusts the spraying amount and spraying angle in combination with a PID control unit. The lubricant spraying module can automatically optimize the spraying amount according to the surface smoothness deviation of the capsule, avoiding material waste caused by excessive spraying and lubricant defects caused by insufficient spraying. By dynamically controlling the spraying amount, the present invention significantly improves the consistency and quality of the capsule surface treatment.

[0017] 2. Efficiency and stability of the conveying process: The gas conveying module monitors and adjusts the airflow pressure and speed in real time through pressure sensors and dynamic PID control units. This module can effectively solve problems such as capsule accumulation and jamming during the conveying process, while protecting the capsule surface from damage. Through the sensitivity optimization algorithm, the gas conveying module can dynamically adjust the airflow intensity according to changes in the conveying environment, ensuring that the conveying process remains smooth at all times, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0018] 3. Coordinated optimization of lubricant spraying and gas delivery: The collaborative control module of the present invention fuses the sensor data of the lubricant spraying module and the gas delivery module through the Kalman filter, filters out noise, and provides accurate state estimation. The adaptive PID control unit in the collaborative control module dynamically adjusts the spraying and delivery parameters according to the fused data to achieve coordinated optimization of the two: When the amount of spraying is too much and the conveying resistance increases, the system automatically reduces the amount of spraying or increases the air flow pressure to ensure the conveying efficiency.

[0019] When conveyor speed changes affect spray uniformity, the system optimizes spray angle and time based on sensor data.

[0020] Linkage control not only improves the coordination of the entire production line, but also significantly reduces the probability of abnormal events.

[0021] 4. System intelligence and stability: The system realizes automation and intelligence of the whole process through multi-sensor data collection and fusion: The amount of lubricant sprayed and the air flow pressure can be automatically adjusted according to production needs without manual intervention.

[0022] The abnormality detection module can monitor abnormal events such as insufficient spraying, excessive spraying or conveying blockage in real time, trigger alarms and adjust system parameters, thereby enhancing operational reliability.

[0023] The intelligent control of the present invention effectively reduces the workload of manual adjustment, while improving the stability and safety of the production line.

[0024] 5. Economic and energy benefits: By dynamically adjusting the amount of lubricant sprayed, the present invention reduces material waste and production costs while ensuring the spraying effect. The gas delivery module significantly reduces gas energy consumption through sensitivity optimization and dynamic PID control, achieving efficient use of energy while maintaining delivery efficiency.

[0025] 6. Wide applicability: The present invention is applicable to the production process of medicinal capsules, especially in large-scale automated production lines, and can significantly improve production efficiency and product quality. The technical solution is universal and can be extended to other industrial scenarios that require surface treatment and transportation optimization, such as particle packaging, food processing and spraying industries.
