[0040] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 A granular medicine filling device for capsule production comprises: a turntable 2 for driving a mold to perform circular motion; a plurality of filling molds 3 mounted around the turntable 2 and arranged in a circular array, and a cavity for filling granular medicine is formed on the top of each filling mold 3; a cleaning mechanism 7 arranged on one side of the turntable 2 and arranged to clean the residue in the filling mold 3 when the filling mold 3 moves to the bottom of the cleaning mechanism 7 with the turntable 2; a base 1, the turntable 2 is mounted on the base 1, the turntable 2 is arranged to rotate on the base 1, and the cleaning mechanism 7 is connected to the base 1; the cleaning mechanism 7 comprises a cleaning seat 702 and a plurality of dust suction pipes 703, the cleaning seat 702 is arranged above the turntable 2, and the plurality of dust suction pipes 703 are connected in the cleaning seat 702, and are arranged to clean the residue in the filling mold 3 when the filling mold 3 follows the turntable 2. When the turntable 2 moves to the bottom of the cleaning seat 702, the dust suction pipe 703 moves downward into the filling mold 3 to absorb the residue in the filling mold 3; the mounting plate 701, the cleaning seat 702 is installed on the mounting plate 701, and the mounting plate 701 is installed on the base 1. The cleaning mechanism 7 enables the residue generated during the filling process to be quickly and effectively removed. When the filling mold 3 moves to the bottom of the cleaning mechanism 7 with the turntable 2, the dust suction pipe 703 can accurately extend into the interior of the mold, and the negative pressure generated by the fan part 706 sucks the residue into the collection box 705. This cleaning method is not only fast, but also can ensure the thorough cleaning of the mold to prepare for the next round of filling work. The residue is cleaned by negative pressure adsorption, avoiding the dust pollution that may be generated in the traditional cleaning method.

[0041] Reference Figure 4The cleaning seat 702 includes: a fixed groove 704, which is opened at the top of the cleaning seat 702, and the dust suction pipe 703 passes through the bottom of the cleaning seat 702 and extends into the fixed groove 704; a collection box 705, which is installed in the fixed groove 704, and the top of the dust suction pipe 703 is connected to the collection box 705, and the collection box 705 is used to collect the residues adsorbed by the dust suction pipe 703; a fan unit 706, which is installed on the collection box 705, and is used to exhaust the air in the collection box 705, so that a negative pressure is formed in the collection box 705 and the dust suction pipe 703; a cover plate 708, which is installed on the collection box 705, and the fan unit 706 is used to exhaust the air in the collection box 705, so that a negative pressure is formed in the collection box 705 and the dust suction pipe 703; The fan unit 706 is installed on the cover plate 708; the filter element 707 is installed in the collection box 705, and is used to filter the collected residues. The projection shape of the filter element 707 is rectangular. The combination of the collection box 705 and the filter element 707 enables the residues adsorbed during the cleaning process to be effectively collected and filtered. The collection box 705 provides sufficient storage space, and the filter element 707 can block the residues from entering the fan unit 706, thereby ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the fan unit 706. The rectangular projection shape of the filter element 707 not only increases the filtering area, but also improves the filtering efficiency.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cleaning mechanism 7 also includes: a power source 709, which is installed on one side of the mounting plate 701. The power shaft of the power source 709 is connected to the collection box 705, and is used to provide moving power for the collection box 705; a top plate 710, which is installed on the top of the cleaning seat 702, and is used to open or close the fixed groove 704. The power source 709 adopts a cylinder, and can also adopt a linear motor. The top plate 710 is used to open or close the fixed groove 704, which is convenient for cleaning and replacing the collection box 705 or the filter element 707.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 A shelling mechanism 4 is installed on the base 1 and is used to fill capsule shells into the filling mold 3; a filling mechanism 5 is installed on the base 1 and is used to fill granular drugs into the filling mold 3; a discharging mechanism 6 is installed on the base 1 and is used to discharge the filled capsules from the mold. Multiple steps such as shelling, filling, cleaning and discharging are integrated into one system, realizing the automation and continuity of capsule production.

[0044] During use, the shelling mechanism 4 starts to work, automatically and accurately fills the capsule shells into the various filling molds 3 distributed on the turntable 2. The filling mechanism 5 starts at an appropriate time point to fill the granular medicine into the filling mold 3 that has been filled with the capsule shells. During the filling process, precise control is performed to ensure that the amount of medicine in each capsule is uniform and meets the standard. The turntable 2 starts to rotate and drives the already filled filling mold 3 to perform a circular motion. When the filling mold 3 continues to move with the turntable 2, the discharging mechanism 6 starts to work when it reaches the discharging position. The discharging mechanism 6 discharges the filled capsules from the mold. In this process, the filling mold 3 may leave some residues on the inner wall of the mold due to the physical properties of the granular medicine or other reasons. When a filling mold 3 moves with the turntable 2 to the cleaning mechanism 7 When the filling mold 3 is filled with filling materials, the cleaning mechanism 7 starts to work, and the dust suction pipe 703 in the cleaning seat 702 moves downward to the filling mold 3 under the drive of the power source 709. At the same time, the fan unit 706 starts to work to discharge the air in the collection box 705, so that a negative pressure is formed in the collection box 705 and the dust suction pipe 703. Under the action of the negative pressure, the dust suction pipe 703 absorbs the residue in the filling mold 3 and transmits it to the collection box 705. The filter element 707 in the collection box 705 filters out the dust and impurities in the residue to ensure that the fan unit 706 will not be contaminated. When the collection box 705 is close to being fully loaded, the fixing slot 704 can be opened through the top plate 710, and the collection box 705 can be conveniently taken out for cleaning or replacement, and the filter element 707 can also be conveniently replaced to ensure that the cleaning work is continued.

[0045] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0046] The cleaning mechanism 7 can accurately reach into the interior of the mold, and combined with the negative pressure generated by the fan unit 706, it can effectively absorb and remove the residual particulate powder in the mold hole, ensuring the thorough cleaning of the mold. The residual powder in the mold hole is completely removed, and the capsule is no longer disturbed by the residue during shelling, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of shelling.

[0047] The residues are cleaned by negative pressure adsorption, avoiding the dust pollution that may be generated by traditional cleaning methods. The residual powder in the mold hole is completely removed, which effectively avoids the problem of capsule quality degradation caused by residue contamination. The clean mold ensures that the filled granular drugs are pure and pollution-free, ensuring the quality and safety of the capsules.
