Specific embodiments

[0023] The following further describes in detail the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present utility model, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present utility model.

A second heating chamber 404 is provided on the outer wall of the first heating chamber 401. A second water inlet 405 is provided on the outer wall of the bottom of the second heating chamber 404, and a second water outlet 406 is provided on the outer wall of the top of the second heating chamber 404. A heat preservation chamber 407 is connected to the outer wall of the side of the second heating chamber 404. The vertical central axis of the glue melting inner tank 1 is consistent with the vertical central axes of the first heating chamber 401, the second heating chamber 404, and the heat preservation chamber 407, and the glue melting inner tank 1 is in a cylindrical shape;

[0025] The specific operation is as follows: materials such as gelatin, water, glycerol and additives are put into the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank through the feeding port 2, and the mixed materials of gelatin, water, glycerol and additives are discharged through the discharging port 3. Hot water is introduced into the inner part of the first heating chamber 401 through the first water inlet 402. The first heating chamber 401 wraps the outer wall of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank. The hot water circulates inside the first heating chamber 401 to heat up the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank, and the hot water flows out through the first water outlet 403;

[0026] Meanwhile, hot water is introduced into the inner part of the second heating chamber 404 through the second water inlet 405. The second heating chamber 404 wraps the outer wall of the first heating chamber 401. The hot water circulates inside the second heating chamber 404 to heat up the first heating chamber 401, and the hot water flows out through the second water outlet 406. The hot water inside the first heating chamber 401 flows from top to bottom, and the hot water inside the second heating chamber 404 flows from bottom to top, preventing the temperature of the hot water from dropping after flowing to the bottom when the first heating chamber 401 heats up the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank from top to bottom, which affects the heating effect, and preventing the uneven heating of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank due to water cooling. The heat preservation chamber 407 improves the heat preservation effect;

[0027] As Figures 1 - 5 shown, a support plate 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank, and the top outer wall heights of the first heating chamber 401, the second heating chamber 404 and the heat preservation chamber 407 are consistent with the top outer wall height of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank. A stirring assembly 6 for stirring is connected to the bottom outer wall of the support plate 5. The stirring assembly 6 includes a driving motor 601 and a first rotating gear 602. The bottom end of the driving motor 601 is connected with the first rotating gear 602. The stirring assembly 6 includes a feeding and stirring shaft 603 and a second rotating gear 604. The bottom outer wall of the first rotating gear 602 is connected with the feeding and stirring shaft 603, and the side outer wall of the first rotating gear 602 is meshed with the second rotating gear 604. The stirring assembly 6 further includes a mixing shaft 605 and a scraping blade 606. The bottom outer wall of the second rotating gear 604 is connected with the mixing shaft 605. The bottom outer wall of the feeding and stirring shaft 603 is connected with the scraping blade 606. The outer wall of the scraping blade 606 is closely attached to the inner wall of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank. The bottom end of the feeding and stirring shaft 603 is rotatably connected with a support frame 7, the inner wall of the inner tank 1 of the gelatin melting tank is connected with the support frame 7, and a tank body base 8 is arranged on the outer wall of the heat preservation chamber 407;

[0028] The specific operation is as follows. The support plate 5 supports the stirring assembly 6. The bottom end of the driving motor 601 rotates to drive the first rotating gear 602 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating gear 602 drives the feeding and stirring shaft 603 to rotate. The outer wall of the upper part of the feeding and stirring shaft 603 can help the materials such as gelatin, water, glycerin and additives in the feeding port 2 to be discharged, preventing the feeding port 2 from being blocked. The rotation of the lower part of the feeding and stirring shaft 603 can drive the materials such as gelatin, water, glycerin and additives in the gelatin melting inner tank 1 to be stirred and mixed.

[0029] The rotation of the driving motor 601 drives the second rotating gear 604 to rotate. The top of the second rotating gear 604 rotates inside the support plate 5, and the bottom of the second rotating gear 604 drives the mixing shaft 605 to rotate. The mixing shaft 605 can stir and mix the materials such as gelatin, water, glycerin and additives in the gelatin melting inner tank 1 while the feeding and stirring shaft 603 is rotating, so as to improve the stirring and mixing efficiency and the glue discharging efficiency.

[0030] The scraping blade 606 rotates with the rotation of the feeding and stirring shaft 603, which can prevent the phenomenon of wall hanging, saving production costs. The outer wall of the bottom of the feeding and stirring shaft 603 rotates inside the support frame 7, and the support frame 7 supports the feeding and stirring shaft 603. The tank body base 8 plays a role in stably supporting the gelatin melting inner tank 1.

[0031] In summary, as Figures 1 - 5 shown, when the gelatin melting tank for capsule production is in use, first, materials such as gelatin, water, glycerin and additives are put into the inside of the gelatin melting inner tank 1 through the feeding port 2 and discharged through the glue discharging port 3. Hot water is introduced into the inside of the first heating chamber 401 through the first water inlet 402. The hot water circulates inside the first heating chamber 401 to heat up the gelatin melting inner tank 1, and the hot water flows out through the first water outlet 403. At the same time, hot water is introduced into the inside of the second heating chamber 404 through the second water inlet 405. The hot water circulates inside the second heating chamber 404 to heat up the first heating chamber 401, and the hot water flows out through the second water outlet 406. The hot water inside the first heating chamber 401 flows from top to bottom, and the hot water inside the second heating chamber 404 flows from bottom to top, preventing the temperature of the hot water from dropping after flowing to the bottom when the first heating chamber 401 heats up the gelatin melting inner tank 1 from top to bottom. The heat preservation chamber 407 improves the heat preservation effect.

[0032] The rotation of the bottom end of the drive motor 601 drives the rotation of the first rotating gear 602. The rotation of the first rotating gear 602 drives the rotation of the blanking and stirring shaft 603. The upper outer wall of the blanking and stirring shaft 603 can assist in the blanking of materials such as gelatin, water, glycerol, and additives inside the feeding port 2. The rotation of the lower part of the blanking and stirring shaft 603 can drive the stirring and mixing of materials such as gelatin, water, glycerol, and additives inside the gelatin melting inner tank 1. The rotation of the drive motor 601 drives the rotation of the second rotating gear 604. The bottom of the second rotating gear 604 drives the rotation of the mixing shaft 605 to stir and mix the materials such as gelatin, water, glycerol, and additives inside the gelatin melting inner tank 1. The scraper 606 rotates with the rotation of the blanking and stirring shaft 603, which can prevent the phenomenon of wall hanging.
