Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft capsule drying, in particular to a soft capsule drying device. Background Art

[0002] As a common packaging method for medicines or health foods, soft capsules have the advantages of uniform and accurate filling, moisture-proof, light-proof, covering up the bad smell of the contents, beautiful appearance, and convenient to carry and use. However, in the production process of soft capsules, the drying link is one of the key steps to ensure its quality; the main component of the soft capsule wall is gelatin, which is composed of more than 85% protein, about 2% minerals and about 13% water, and contains 20 amino acids required by the human body except tryptophan. Long-term heating of this high molecular polymer above 40°C will accelerate the hydrolysis and cleavage of the peptide chain in the gelatin molecule. Therefore, when drying the soft capsule, the temperature should not be too high and the drying intensity should not be too large. This leads to a long drying cycle for the soft capsule and high energy consumption in the drying process; the existing soft capsule drying method usually uses a cylindrical rotating cage for drying and shaping. Although the rotation of the rotating cage in the circumferential direction can drive the capsule to roll, throw up, fall, etc. in the cage, thereby quickly and comprehensively drying the soft capsule, this method has some problems. First, since the rotating cage is a cylindrical structure, it is difficult to discharge the capsules, and there are often capsules left in the cage, which makes the discharge not clean and thorough. Secondly, the capsules are constantly thrown up and down during the drying process, resulting in violent collisions between the capsules and the rotating cage and between capsules, which can easily cause the capsules to break, and then the defective rate of the capsules increases sharply. For this reason, we provide a soft capsule drying device. Utility Model Content

[0020] In order to more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a soft capsule drying device proposed in one embodiment of the utility model comprises a drying box 1 and a containing box 2, wherein the containing box 2 is inserted at the end of the drying box 1, and a through hole 3 is formed through the upper end surface of the drying box 1, and a mounting frame 4 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the drying box 1 and relative to the position of the through hole 3, and an exhaust fan 5 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting frame 4, and an air outlet 6 is formed on the side of the drying box 1, and a reset mechanism is connected between the drying box 1 and the containing box 2; the reset mechanism comprises an L-shaped connecting rod 12 fixedly connected to the side of the end of the containing box 2 and a strip plate 7 fixedly connected to the side of the drying box 1, and the upper end surface of the strip plate 7 is provided with a strip groove 8, and the two sides of the strip groove 8 are provided with a strip groove 8. A transverse fixing rod 9 is fixedly connected between the end walls, and a spring 10 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the transverse fixing rod 9. A sliding sleeve block 11 is slidably sleeved on the outer periphery of the transverse fixing rod 9, and the upper end surface of the sliding sleeve block 11 is connected to the L-shaped connecting rod 12. A threaded hole 13 is provided on the upper end surface of the sliding sleeve block 11. One end of the L-shaped connecting rod 12 is threadedly connected to a fixing screw 14. The lower end of the fixing screw 14 passes through the L-shaped connecting rod 12 and is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded hole 13, and the inner diameter of the threaded hole 13 is matched with the designed outer diameter of the fixing screw 14. One end of the spring 10 is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip groove 8, and the other end of the spring 10 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the sliding sleeve block 11.

[0023] Among them, by setting the transverse fixing rod 9 and the spring 10, the containing box 2 can better cooperate with the transverse fixing rod 9, the sliding sleeve block 11 and the L-shaped connecting rod 12 when not subjected to force and reset under the rebound force of the spring 10, so that the containing box 2 can be quickly reset after being filled with soft capsules.

[0024] Furthermore, an I-shaped slide rail 15 is transversely fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the drying box 1 , and a slider 16 is fixedly connected to the lower end surface of the containing box 2 . The slider 16 is slidably sleeved on the periphery of the I-shaped slide rail 15 .

[0025] Among them, by providing the I-shaped slide rail 15 and the slider 16, the containing box 2 can slide better inside the drying box 1, and the overall sliding stability is improved, so that the subsequent taking and placing can be completed more smoothly.

[0026] Furthermore, a filter hole 17 is opened on the inner bottom wall of the containing box 2, a mounting frame 18 is fixedly connected to the upper end surface of the drying box 1, a filter mesh frame 19 is mounted on the inner wall of the mounting frame 18, and a pulling handle 20 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the containing box 2.

[0027] Among them, by setting the mounting frame 18, the filter frame 19 and the pulling handle 20, the user can better apply the force to the end of the containing box 2, and the setting of the mounting frame 18 and the filter frame 19 can prevent impurities and dust from entering the interior of the drying box 1 when the exhaust fan 5 is drawing air.

[0028] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when the soft capsule drying device is used, the containing box 2 is first pulled outward by pulling the handle 20, and then the soft capsules to be dried are placed therein and the force on the pulling handle 20 is released to allow the containing box 2 to be reset and enter the interior of the drying box 1; then the exhaust fan 5 is started and the filter frame 19 is placed, and at this time the exhaust fan 5 will introduce outside air into the interior of the drying box 1 and dry the soft capsules; and if the containing box 2 needs to be cleaned later, the tightening screw 14 can be twisted off at this time, so that the sliding sleeve block 11 is not fixed to the L-shaped connecting rod 12, and the containing box 2 can be slid out together with the L-shaped connecting rod 12 in cooperation with the I-shaped slide rail 15 and the card slide block 16.
