Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft capsule processing, in particular to a drying cage for soft capsule processing. Background Art

[0002] Soft capsules, also known as soft pills, are a type of capsule packaging and are commonly found in medicines or health foods. They are a type of capsule made by sealing liquid drugs or liquid-solid drugs in a soft capsule material after processing. The soft capsule material is made of gelatin, glycerin or other suitable pharmaceutical excipients for capsules, either alone or in combination. It refers to a capsule in which a certain amount of liquid drug is directly encapsulated, or a solid drug is dissolved or dispersed in a suitable excipient to form a solution, suspension, emulsion or semi-solid, and is sealed in a spherical or elliptical soft capsule material. The soft capsules need to be dried after production and processing. At present, the existing drying cages are difficult to feed and discharge. When feeding, the soft capsules are easily blocked at the feed port, affecting the feeding time and reducing the working efficiency of the drying cage. At the same time, the soft capsules are easily left in the drying cage during discharge, requiring staff to manually remove them, thereby reducing the working efficiency of the drying cage.

[0003] For example, the utility model patent with publication number CN216245279U discloses a fully automatic intelligent drying cage for soft capsule production, including a cabinet and a drying cage. A protective cover is fixedly installed on the top of the cabinet, and two sets of fixed rings are fixedly installed inside the protective cover. Slip rings are fixedly installed on both sides of the outside of the drying cage, and a heating drying tube is fixedly installed inside the protective cover. When using this device, feeding and discharging are more difficult. When feeding, soft capsules are easily blocked at the feed port, affecting the feeding time, thereby reducing the working efficiency of the drying cage. At the same time, soft capsules are easily left in the drying cage during discharge, and staff need to manually take them out, thereby reducing the working efficiency of the drying cage. Utility Model Content
