Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft capsule processing, and particularly relates to a bubble elimination device for soft capsule processing. Background Technique

[0002] Soft capsules, also known as gelatine capsules, belong to a type of packaging for capsules and are commonly found in pharmaceuticals or health foods. It is a type of capsule in which liquid drugs or liquid-solid drugs are processed and sealed in a soft capsule material. The soft capsule material is made of capsule gelatin, glycerol or other suitable pharmaceutical excipients alone or in combination. During the production process of soft capsules, it is necessary to remove air bubbles to reduce the impact of air bubbles on the drugs inside the soft capsules. Currently, when using existing bubble elimination devices, affected by the volume of soft capsules, larger soft capsules cannot be completely placed in the circular holes for capsule placement. When transporting soft capsules, they cannot be fixed, easily causing the soft capsules to slip, thereby increasing production costs. At the same time, it increases the time required to place the soft capsules in the circular holes for capsule placement, thus affecting the working efficiency of the bubble elimination device.

[0003] For example, the utility model patent with the publication number CN218979810U discloses a bubble elimination device for soft capsule processing, including: a box body with an opening and a door panel hinged to the opening of the box body. A plurality of slideway components are spaced and connected to the inner walls on both sides of the box body. Soft capsule placement plate components are respectively arranged in the slideway components. A pressure gauge, a vacuum pumping component, and a pressure relief pipe component are sequentially connected to the top of the box body from left to right; the soft capsule placement plate component includes a horizontal plate and a support plate. A plurality of circular holes for soft capsule placement are spaced on the horizontal plate. Round rods are respectively slidably connected in the circular holes for soft capsule placement. The lower ends of the round rods are connected to the support plate. It also includes not less than one adjusting rod, and the lower end of the adjusting rod passes through the horizontal plate and is connected to the support plate. When this device is used, affected by the volume of soft capsules, larger soft capsules cannot be completely placed in the circular holes for capsule placement. When transporting soft capsules, they cannot be fixed, easily causing the soft capsules to slip, thereby increasing production costs. At the same time, it increases the time required to place the soft capsules in the circular holes for capsule placement, thus affecting the working efficiency of the bubble elimination device.

[0035] Example: When the bubble elimination device is in use, place the soft capsule in the arc-shaped groove 20. The arc-shaped groove 20 plays a positioning role.

Further, the L-shaped plates 16 on both sides of the arc-shaped groove 20 move towards the arc-shaped groove 20 at the same time. The baffle 18 is slidably mounted on the L-shaped plate 16 through the support column 17. The soft capsule can be clamped by the baffle 18, which can prevent the soft capsule from falling during transportation, reducing the production cost of the soft capsule. At the same time, this structure can fix soft capsules of different volumes, thereby improving the universality of the application of the bubble elimination device. The spring 19 is compressed to generate elastic force. When taking the soft capsule, rotate the driving knob 24 to control the rotation of the second connecting rod 25, drive the rotation of the first connecting rod 21, make the first bevel gear 22 rotate, drive the second bevel gear 23 to rotate, and then control the rotation of the lead screw 27. Further, the L-shaped plates 16 on both sides of the arc-shaped groove 20 move away from the arc-shaped groove 20 at the same time. The mutual force generated by the spring 19 makes the baffle 18 move to the initial position, facilitating the subsequent fixation of the soft capsule. The support plate 15 is slidably mounted in the first chute 30 through the first slider 14. Further, the soft capsule is installed in the box body 7. Rotate the protective door 3 to make it attach to the box body 7. The sealing strip 5 is used to seal the protective door 3 to prevent air from entering the box body 7 when evacuating. Rotate the driving handle 4 to drive the rotation of the first fixing block 6, make the first fixing block 6 move to the rear wall surface of the second fixing block 13, and use it to fix the protective door 3. Drive the vacuum pump 9 to start, so that the air in the box body 7 is discharged through the air pipe 8, making the box body 7 in a negative pressure state. Affected by the negative pressure, the gas in the bubbles on the soft capsule flows to the outside, achieving the purpose of eliminating bubbles. The numerical value of the pressure in the box body can be observed through the pressure gauge 1, which is convenient for better removing the bubbles on the soft capsule. After the bubble elimination is completed, control the opening of the pressure relief pipe 11 through the pressure relief solenoid valve 10 to balance the pressure inside the box body 7 with the pressure outside the box body 7, facilitating the staff to open the protective door 3.
