Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical production, and particularly relates to a sorting component for a pharmaceutical production line. Background Art

[0002] In the modern pharmaceutical field, the use of capsules has long exceeded the simple concept of drug packaging and has become an indispensable drug delivery system. The original intention of capsule design is mainly to deal with drugs with specific properties, which may cause some problems when taken directly. Some drugs are in powder or granular form, and they are irritating to the esophagus and gastric mucosa. If taken directly, these irritating components may damage the patient's digestive tract, causing pain or discomfort. The design of the outer coating and inner filling of the capsule can effectively isolate these drugs from the external environment, avoiding direct contact between the drugs and the esophagus or gastric mucosa, thereby reducing irritation. Moreover, some drugs are volatile or easily decomposed by saliva in the mouth, which may cause the drug to lose part or all of its efficacy before reaching the stomach. The capsule design can ensure that the drug is not decomposed in the mouth and prevent the volatilization of the drug, ensuring that the drug can reach the stomach intact, thereby exerting the maximum efficacy. Therefore, when these drugs are loaded into capsules, not only the drug properties are protected from being damaged, but also the patient's digestive organs and respiratory tract are protected. If the capsule shell is removed, it may lead to the loss and waste of the drug during the taking process, reduce the drug efficacy, and even may bring unnecessary health risks. Therefore, when taking these drugs, it is recommended to take the capsules intact according to the doctor's instructions and the requirements in the drug instruction manual to ensure the effectiveness and safety of the drug.

[0003] According to the Chinese patent with the patent number: CN 218108481 U, a sorting device for the production of Huoxue Zhitong capsules is disclosed, including a base. An unloading mechanism is arranged on the top surface of the base. A support plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base. A servo motor is fixedly connected to the right side of the right support plate, and the servo motor is rotationally connected to the right support plate. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to a lead screw, and the lead screw is rotationally connected to the support plate. A nut sleeve is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw. By sorting out the Huoxue Zhitong capsules with larger shapes and the Huoxue Zhitong capsules with smaller shapes on the first sorting plate and the second sorting plate, opening the box door, and taking out the sorted Huoxue Zhitong capsules, the goal of facilitating the sorting of Huoxue Zhitong capsules with unqualified shapes and sizes is achieved, avoiding the low sorting efficiency caused by the current mainly manual sorting, improving the mechanization degree of the sorting of Huoxue Zhitong capsules, and meeting the requirements of high-efficiency industrial production.

[0025] Embodiment 1

[0026] In Figures 1-4 this, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a sorting component for a pharmaceutical production line, including a screening mechanism 1 and a dust removal mechanism 2. An installation plate inside the screening box 3 of the screening mechanism 1 is provided with a screening plate 4. The screening plate 4 is provided with screening holes. The cross-section of the screening plate 4 is a right triangle. A storage box 5 is slidably fixed at the bottom of the screening box 3. A storage groove 6 is provided on the left side of the screening plate 4. A dust removal mechanism 2 is provided on the upper side of the screening box 3. The feed pipe 7 of the dust removal mechanism 2 is provided on the upper side of the screening box 3. A fan 8 is provided on the feed pipe 7. An outlet hole is provided opposite the fan 8.

[0027] In one aspect of this embodiment, a maintenance door 9 is provided on the front of the screening box 3. The maintenance door 9 is rotatably fixed to the screening box 3. The fixing holes of the maintenance door 9 are connected to the screening box 3 through rotating fixing rods. A control panel 10 is provided on the side of the screening box 3. The control panel 10 consists of an LED display screen and control buttons. Jitter brackets 11 are provided on both sides of the screening box 3. Rotating sleeves 12 are provided on the jitter brackets 11. The rotating sleeves 12 are concentrically fitted with the jitter brackets 11. A jitter spring seat 13 is provided at the bottom of the rotating sleeve 12. An anti-slip plate 14 is provided on the bottom side of the jitter spring seat 13. Friction strips are provided at the bottom of the anti-slip plate 14. A motor bracket 18 is provided at the bottom of the screening box 3. A dual-rotor motor 15 is provided on the motor bracket 18 of the screening box 3. A rotating disc 16 is provided on the rotating shaft of the dual-rotor motor 15. The balance point of the rotating disc 16 is not on the rotating shaft of the dual-rotor motor 15. When the dual-rotor motor 15 rotates the rotating disc 16, since the balance point is not on the rotating shaft, jitter will be generated on the screening box 3. The jitter will be transmitted to the jitter spring seat 13 through the jitter brackets 11 of the screening box 3, thereby improving the screening effect of the equipment.

[0028] In one aspect of this embodiment, a storage box 17 is provided at the discharge hole of the feed pipe 7. The storage box 17 is magnetically fixed to the screening box 3. By adjusting the power of the blower 8, the user can blow the empty capsules into the storage box 17 and at the same time can remove dust from other capsules.

[0029] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: During the use of the present utility model, the user first adjusts the power of the blower 8 through the control panel 10 according to the quality of the empty capsules, and at the same time starts the dual-rotor motor 15. Since the balance point is not on the rotating shaft, jitter will be generated on the screening box 3. The jitter will be transmitted to the jitter spring seat 13 through the jitter brackets 11 of the screening box 3, thereby improving the screening effect of the equipment. Then the capsules are input into the feed pipe 7. The blower 8 can blow the empty capsules into the storage box 17 and at the same time can remove dust from other capsules. The capsules falling on the screening plate 4 are screened during continuous jitter. Moreover, the cross-section of the screening plate 4 is a right triangle, which will cause the capsules falling on the screening plate 4 to be output into the storage tank 6, and the capsules meeting the user's aperture will fall into the storage box 5.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present utility model can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
