Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capsule filling machines, in particular to a waste capsule collecting device for a capsule filling machine. Background Technique

[0002] A capsule filling machine is a device for filling powder into a hollow capsule shell and closing the cap. At present, various new drugs with high activity, radioactivity, and unknown toxicity are being developed in large quantities. Since leakage during the development of such new drugs can damage the physical health of production personnel, pharmaceutical companies are paying increasing attention to the personal protection of drug production personnel, which has also promoted the increasing demand for high tightness of pharmaceutical equipment.

[0003] Traditional capsule filling machines mainly include a frame, a capsule rotary disk, a powder filling device, and an empty capsule feeding device. The empty capsules are conveyed to the capsule plate holes of the capsule rotary disk through the empty capsule feeding device and sequentially enter stations such as body-cap separation, body-cap misalignment, powder filling, waste capsule removal, body-cap closing, and discharging with the rotation of the capsule rotary disk. In the prior art, the peripheral dust collector equipped with the capsule filling machine is provided with a waste material collecting pipe for connecting the waste removal device and the dust collecting center. The waste material collecting pipe is prone to excessive accumulation of waste capsules, occupying the waste storage space of the filter, resulting in possible filter blockage and a decrease in dust suction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-5, the utility model discloses a waste capsule collection device for a capsule filling machine, which includes a filling machine body 1, a capsule rotary disk 2 and a waste rejection device. A dust collector 4 is installed on one side of the filling machine body 1. A dust suction hood 3 cooperating with the waste rejection device is installed on the filling machine body 1. The dust suction port of the dust collector 4 is connected with a separation cylinder 5 through a connecting pipe 6. One side of the separation cylinder 5 is connected with the dust suction hood 3 through a connecting pipe 6. A separation net 10 for blocking waste capsules is installed in the inner cavity of the separation cylinder 5. A feeding pipe 7 communicating with the inner cavity of the separation cylinder 5 is installed below the side of the separation cylinder 5 close to the dust suction hood 3 where the separation net 10 is located. The feeding pipe 7 is detachably connected with an installation pipe 8. The bottom end of the installation pipe 8 is integrally connected with a transparent collection cylinder 9.

[0020] Specifically, a fixing ring 11 is installed in the inner cavity of the installation pipe 8. Slots 12 are evenly formed in the top end of the inner wall of the installation pipe 8 along its circumferential direction. An arc-shaped limiting slot 13 communicating with the slots 12 is also formed in the part of the inner wall of the installation pipe 8 above the fixing ring 11. Plug blocks 14 cooperating with the slots 12 and the limiting slots 13 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction at the bottom end of the outer wall of the feeding pipe 7.

[0021] In this embodiment, aligning the plug blocks 14 on the outer wall of the feeding pipe 7 with the slots 12 inside the installation pipe 8 can enable the feeding pipe 7 to be inserted into the inner cavity of the installation pipe 8 and abut against the fixing ring 11. At the same time, the plug blocks 14 can also be inserted into the slots 12. Then, rotating the collection cylinder 9 can make the plug blocks 14 displace into the limiting slots 13 to prevent the feeding pipe 7 and the installation pipe 8 from detaching.

[0022] In this application, the number of the slots 12, the plug blocks 14 and the limiting slots 13 is three.

[0023] The collection cylinder 9 and the installation pipe 8 are made of transparent plastic materials.

[0024] Specifically, a convex block 15 is arranged at the top of the plug block 14. A clamping groove 16 cooperating with the convex block 15 is formed in the top inner wall of the limiting slot 13.

[0025] In this embodiment, the convex block 15 is made of plastic and has the ability of elastic deformation. After the plug block 14 displaces into the limiting slot 13, the convex block 15 can be clamped in the clamping groove 16 to improve the stability of the convex block 15 in the limiting slot 13 and the tightness when the installation pipe 8 and the feeding pipe 7 are connected.

[0026] Specifically, a rubber sealing pad is arranged at the top of the fixing ring 11.

[0027] In this embodiment, the fixing ring 11 can be abutted by the bottom end of the feeding pipe 7, and the rubber sealing pad can cooperate with the feeding pipe 7 to play a sealing role.

[0028] Specifically, the separation net 10 is inclined.

[0029] In this embodiment, at the bottom of the partition net 10 close to the blanking pipe 7, the partition net 10 can allow the waste powder to pass through, but the waste capsules cannot pass through. The partition net 10 can block the waste capsules, so that the waste capsules enter the collection cylinder 9 along the blanking pipe 7.

[0030] Specifically, the connecting pipe 6 is threadedly connected to the partition cylinder 5.

[0031] In this embodiment, internal threads and an annular convex edge are formed on the inner wall of the end of the connecting pipe 6. Connecting heads with external threads that are in fit connection with the internal threads on the inner wall of the connecting pipe 6 are provided at both ends of the partition cylinder 5. The connecting heads abut against the annular convex edge, and a sealing gasket is assembled between the connecting heads and the convex edge.

[0032] In summary, for the waste capsule collection device for the capsule filling machine, the partition net 10 provided in the inner cavity of the partition cylinder 5 separates the waste powder and waste capsules generated during the capsule filling process. The waste capsules can fall into the collection cylinder 9 and be collected. The collection cylinder 9 is convenient to remove so as to clean the waste capsules collected inside it.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
