Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the utility model provides an embodiment of a tablet disintegration device, comprising: an iron frame 1, an adjusting member 2 is arranged on the iron frame 1, the adjusting member 2 comprises a fitting portion 21, the fitting portion 21 is in a circular ring shape and surrounds the outer surface of the column of the iron frame 1, the fitting portion 21 extends to one side to form two fixing portions 22, and the two fixing portions 22 fix the fitting portion 21 to the iron frame 1 by bolts.

[0024] The fitting portion 21 is fixedly mounted with a connecting rod 3, through which a drip tube 4 is passed, and the drip tube 4 has scales for conveniently dripping a preset amount of liquid medium onto the tablet.

[0025] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the connecting rod 3 is provided with a clamp 31 , the clamp 31 is used to clamp the dripping tube 4 , and the dripping tube 4 is provided with a regulating valve 41 .

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the tablet disintegration device also includes: a container 5, a sieve plate 6 is detachably provided on the top of the container 5, the sieve plate 6 also includes an outer frame 61, the outer diameter of the outer frame 61 is larger than the outer diameter of the container 5 to prevent the sieve plate 6 from falling into the container 5, and at least two positioning columns 63 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the outer frame 61. The positioning columns 63 are arranged in the container 5 and abut against the inner wall of the container 5. The positioning columns 63 can prevent the operator from accidentally touching the sieve plate 6 and causing it to detach from the container 5.

[0027] Furthermore, a screen 62 is fixed inside the outer frame 61 . The screen 62 is used to place tablets. The screen 62 is concave to prevent particles formed during the disintegration process of the tablets from rolling outward along the screen 62 .

[0028] In this embodiment, the dropper 4 is fixed to the connecting rod 3 by the clamp 31, and then the height of the dropper 4 is adjusted by the adjusting member 2, and the regulating valve 41 is opened, and the dropper 4 drips the liquid medium onto the tablet placed at the center of the screen 62. After the liquid medium infiltrates the tablet, the excess liquid is promptly discharged into the container 5 through the screen 62, so as to ensure that the amount of liquid medium contacted by the tablet sample is stable, so that the tablet sample with a faster disintegration speed is not easy to completely dissolve in a short time, so that the operator can observe the disintegration phenomenon occurring during the infiltration process of the tablet sample, and evaluate the size of the disintegrated particles by observing the passing rate of the particles generated after the tablet sample is crushed in the screen 62, so as to facilitate the analysis of the tablet sample by the operator and provide more information for research and development.

[0029] In the present application, the sieve plate 6 with different mesh 62 apertures can be replaced as needed, and different dropper tubes 4 can be replaced according to the size of the tablet to achieve different dripping speeds. The disintegration ability of the tablet samples can be observed and compared by adjusting the dripping speed.
