Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soft capsule technology, and in particular to a shaping mechanism for a soft capsule making machine. Background Technology

[0002] Soft capsules, also known as soft capsules, are a type of capsule packaging commonly found in pharmaceuticals or health foods. They are capsules made by sealing liquid or liquid-solid drugs in a soft capsule material after processing.

[0003] During the shaping process of soft capsules, the drug is added to the center while two forming rollers rotate and extrude. Then, the soft capsule material on both sides is extruded and shaped. However, because the running position of the driving extrusion forming rollers is relatively fixed, it can only prepare drugs within the specified size. When the drug content is less than the current size, it cannot fully limit the drug's position. At the same time, it cannot adjust the drug content within the size of the forming rollers themselves. This results in the finished product having an overly uniform drug content, which cannot meet the specific content requirements for use.

[0004] Therefore, we provide a shaping mechanism for a soft capsule pelleting machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing a shaping mechanism for a soft capsule making machine, which enables adjustment of extrusion specifications and the preparation of drugs with different contents.

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a shaping mechanism for a soft capsule pelletizing machine, including an active forming roller, an auxiliary forming roller, and two rotating support disks installed on the outside of the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller. A rotating ring is rotatably connected to each adjacent side of the two rotating support disks. A transmission gear is installed on the side of the rotating ring away from the rotating support disk. The transmission gear is meshed with two rotating gears through its inner tooth blocks. A transmission pinion is meshed with the transmission gear through its outer tooth blocks. The two transmission pinions are connected by a drive shaft. A rotating threaded rod is installed at the middle of one end of each rotating gear. A threaded support cylinder is threaded to one end of the rotating threaded rod. A rotating support ring is installed at one end of the threaded support cylinder. A rotating support column for driving support of the active forming roller is rotatably installed in the middle of the rotating support ring.

[0007] Preferably, the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller are each equipped with a rotating support column and a rotating support ring at opposite ends, and each rotating support ring is equipped with a threaded support cylinder on its outer side.

[0008] Preferably, the four threaded support cylinders are located at the same horizontal position, and the two threaded support cylinders on one side of the active forming roller are threaded in the same direction as the rotating threaded rod, and the two threaded support cylinders on one side of the auxiliary forming roller are threaded in the same direction as the rotating threaded rod, and the two sets of threaded support cylinders on both sides of the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller are threaded in opposite directions to the rotating threaded rod.

[0009] Preferably, a support shaft for rotational support is mounted on the end surface of the rotating gear away from the rotating threaded rod, and the support shaft is rotatably connected to the rotating support disc and extends to its outer side.

[0010] Preferably, a drive motor for driving support is provided on the outer side of the transmission pinion, and the drive shaft is installed at the output end of the drive motor.

[0011] Preferably, a telescopic assembly is installed between the rotating support ring on the outer side of the active forming roller and the rotating support ring on the outer side of the auxiliary forming roller. The telescopic end of the telescopic assembly is installed on the surface of the rotating support ring on the outer side of the active forming roller, and the fixed end of the telescopic assembly is installed on the surface of the rotating support ring on the outer side of the auxiliary forming roller.

[0012] Preferably, a driving device is installed at the outer end of the rotating support column, and a support frame for moving and guiding is provided on the outside of the driving device. A fastening bolt is threadedly connected to the upper end of the driving device, the fastening bolt is inserted into the support frame, and an anti-slip limiting strip is installed on the upper surface of the support frame.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a shaping mechanism for a soft capsule pelleting machine, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model uses a small transmission gear to drive a large transmission gear, thereby improving the accuracy of the movement of the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller, and ensuring stability and reliability during the adjustment and use of their specifications.

[0015] 2. This utility model is based on the simultaneous connection of the drive shaft to two small transmission gears, controlling their simultaneous rotation. Under the meshing transmission of the outer tooth block of the rotating ring and the small transmission gear, the two transmission gears on both sides rotate under the rotational support of the rotating ring and the rotating support plate. This causes the transmission gears to rotate, driving the two internal rotating gears to rotate simultaneously in the same direction under the meshing transmission of the inner tooth block, and driving the two rotating threaded rods on both sides to rotate simultaneously.

[0016] 3. This utility model, with the threaded connection between the threaded support cylinder and the rotating threaded rod, can convert the rotation mode into the horizontal movement of the threaded support cylinder and the rotating support ring, so that the rotating support column and the active forming roller follow the rotating support ring to move horizontally, and the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller move in opposite directions at the same time. The distance between the active forming roller and the auxiliary forming roller can be adjusted from both sides at the same time, so that the shaping space can be adjusted according to the volume of the injected drug, and the various specifications can be improved when used.

[0017] The parts of this device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This utility model has a simple structure and is easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] Example 1: A shaping mechanism for a soft capsule pelleting machine, such as... Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the system includes an active forming roller 1, an auxiliary forming roller 2, and two rotating support disks 10 installed on the outside of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2. A rotating ring 9 is rotatably connected to each adjacent side of the two rotating support disks 10. A transmission gear 8 is installed on the side of the rotating ring 9 away from the rotating support disk 10. The transmission gear 8 is connected to two rotating gears 7 through its inner tooth blocks. A transmission pinion 11 is connected to the transmission gear 8 through its outer tooth blocks. The two transmission pinions 11 are connected by a drive shaft. A rotating threaded rod 6 is installed at the middle of one end of each rotating gear 7. A threaded support cylinder 5 is threaded to one end of the rotating threaded rod 6. A rotating support ring 3 is installed at one end of the threaded support cylinder 5. A rotating support column 4 for driving support of the active forming roller 1 is rotatably installed in the middle of the rotating support ring 3.

[0026] Based on the simultaneous connection of the drive shaft to the two transmission pinions 11, their simultaneous rotation is controlled. This causes the transmission gears 8 on both sides to rotate under the rotational support of the rotating ring 9 and the rotating support disk 10, driven by the meshing transmission of the outer tooth blocks of the rotating ring 9 and the transmission pinions 11. This rotation drives the two internal rotating gears 7 to rotate simultaneously in the same direction under the meshing transmission of the inner tooth blocks, thus causing the two rotating threaded rods 6 on both sides to rotate simultaneously. Therefore, through the threaded connection between the threaded support cylinder 5 and the rotating threaded rods 6, the rotation mode can be converted into horizontal movement of the threaded support cylinder 5 and the rotating support ring 3. The rotating support column 4 and the active forming roller 1 move horizontally following the rotating support ring 3, causing the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 to move in opposite directions simultaneously. The distance between the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 is adjusted from both sides simultaneously, allowing for adjustment of the shaping space according to the volume of the injected drug. This improves the ability to use various different specifications. Furthermore, the transmission pinion 11 drives the transmission gear 8 to rotate, creating a pinion-driven gear effect. This improves the accuracy of the movement of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2, ensuring stability and reliability during specification adjustment.

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 are each equipped with a rotating support column 4 and a rotating support ring 3 at opposite ends, and each rotating support ring 3 is equipped with a threaded support cylinder 5 on its outer side.

[0028] Furthermore, the four threaded support cylinders 5 are located at the same horizontal position, and the two threaded support cylinders 5 on one side of the active forming roller 1 are threaded in the same direction as the rotating threaded rod 6, and the two threaded support cylinders 5 on one side of the auxiliary forming roller 2 are threaded in the same direction as the rotating threaded rod 6, and the two sets of threaded support cylinders 5 on both sides of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 are threaded in opposite directions as the rotating threaded rod 6.

[0029] By installing rotating support rings 3 at both ends of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2, and setting the threaded support cylinders 5 on the outer side of the rotating support rings 3 at the same horizontal position, the movement angle of the rotating support rings 3 is limited, so that the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 can move stably on the same horizontal plane. At the same time, based on the opposite rotation directions of the rotating threaded rods 6 on both sides, when the driving components on both sides rotate in the same direction, they can drive the rotating threaded rods 6 on both sides to rotate in opposite directions, so that the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 move in a symmetrical direction, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of the device movement.

[0030] Example 2: A shaping mechanism for a soft capsule pelleting machine, such as... Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a support shaft for rotational support is mounted on the end surface of the rotating gear 7 away from the rotating threaded rod 6. The support shaft is rotatably connected to the rotating support disk 10 and extends to its outer side.

[0031] With the rotational connection and limiting of the support shaft, the position of the rotating gear 7 is ensured to be accurate when it rotates, and the angle of horizontal movement of the rotating support ring 3 on one side is further limited, thereby improving the safety and stability of the device as a whole during use.

[0032] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a drive motor 12 for driving support is provided on the outside of the transmission pinion 11, and the drive shaft is installed at the output end of the drive motor 12.

[0033] Driven by a drive motor 12, two transmission pinions 11 can be driven to rotate synchronously and in the same direction, achieving the effect of synchronous driving on both sides, improving the accuracy when they move symmetrically, while saving the drive source of the device and improving the energy-saving effect when the device is used.

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a telescopic component 13 is installed between the outer rotating support ring 3 of the active forming roller 1 and the outer rotating support ring 3 of the auxiliary forming roller 2. The telescopic end of the telescopic component 13 is installed on the surface of the outer rotating support ring 3 of the active forming roller 1, and the fixed end of the telescopic component 13 is installed on the surface of the outer rotating support ring 3 of the auxiliary forming roller 2.

[0035] When the two rotating support rings 3 move symmetrically, the telescopic component 13 itself further limits their movement direction and provides a limiting and guiding effect during use, thereby further improving their stability and accuracy during movement and operation.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a drive device 14 is installed on the outer end of the rotating support column 4. A support frame 15 for moving guide limit is provided on the outer side of the drive device 14. A fastening bolt 16 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the drive device 14. The fastening bolt 16 is inserted into the support frame 15, and an anti-slip limit strip is installed on the upper surface of the support frame 15.

[0037] Under the guidance of the support frame 15, the drive device 14 can move synchronously with the rotating support column 4. With the fastening and positioning of the fastening bolts 16, the position of the drive device 14 after movement is limited. This improves the accuracy of the movement direction of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 from both sides, as well as the stability of the drive support after movement. Furthermore, the distance between the transmission components on both sides of the active forming roller 1 and the auxiliary forming roller 2 is adjusted according to the actual installation environment to ensure the stability and safety of material movement.

[0038] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
