Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft capsule production, in particular to drying equipment for soft capsule production. Background Art
[0002] In the manufacturing process of soft capsules, it is usually necessary to use a drying equipment with a rotating cage to air-dry the soft capsules. The drying equipment is also called a dryer and a dryer. It is a device used for drying operations. It vaporizes the moisture in the material by heating to obtain a solid material with a specified moisture content. The purpose of drying is to meet the needs of material use or further processing.
[0003] For example, the authorization announcement number "CN220070747U" is named as a drying equipment for soft capsule production. Although when the equipment is used, the shrink sleeve can be fixed to the support frame, the shaft rod is moved to the top of the shaft groove, the pulley is retracted back to the shrink sleeve, and the equipment is fixed to the ground to ensure the stability of the equipment when working, but the existing drying equipment for soft capsule production adopts the method of placing the prepared soft capsules into the capsule rack inside the drying equipment, and the capsule rack is fixed in position to dry the soft capsules, which results in the soft capsules being unable to be actively turned over and changed in position during the drying process. Therefore, the soft capsules placed on the capsule rack with the side exposed to the outside facing upward will dry faster, while the soft capsules on the capsule rack facing downward will dry relatively slower. Therefore, the drying speed of the soft capsules is not uniform enough during the drying process, so the soft capsules are easily deformed and become various irregular shapes, thereby reducing the production quality of the drying equipment for soft capsule production.
[0004] At the same time, in the existing drying equipment for soft capsule production, since the soft capsules are small particles separated one by one, the number of soft capsules dried each time is relatively large. Therefore, after a large number of soft capsules are dried, the operator needs to open the outer opening and closing cover again, and then manually take out and collect the soft capsule products one by one, which not only wastes time and causes a slow collection speed, but also easily causes the internal environment of the drying equipment to be in contact with the external air for too long, causing pollution inside the drying equipment, and it also takes time to disinfect and clean, which greatly affects the working efficiency of the drying equipment for soft capsule production.
