AI Technical Summary
In existing capsule filling machines, material tends to accumulate on the surface of the lower module during the filling process, which affects the locking effect and is not conducive to cleaning.
A through-feed powder trough is set between two adjacent rows of mold holes in the lower module. The material is guided into the powder trough by centrifugal force to avoid material accumulation and facilitate cleaning.
This effectively prevents material from accumulating on the surface of the lower module, improves the locking effect, and simplifies the cleaning process.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a capsule filling machine, and more particularly to a capsule filling module for the capsule filling machine. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, capsule filling machines generally consist of a capsule sorting and separation mechanism, a waste removal mechanism, a material filling mechanism, a capsule locking mechanism, a finished product discharge mechanism, a mold cleaning mechanism, a human-machine interface control mechanism, a mechanical transmission mechanism, an indexing turntable mechanism (the intermittent filling turntable of the indexing turntable mechanism is equipped with several sets of upper and lower modules), a frame, and a worktable. The workflow is as follows: empty capsules first pass through the capsule sorting and separation mechanism for reversal and capsule cap separation, entering the mold holes of the upper and lower modules of the indexing turntable mechanism. Waste capsules are then removed by the waste removal mechanism. Next, the material filling mechanism fills the capsules with material. After filling, the capsule locking mechanism locks the capsule cap and capsule body, and the finished product discharge mechanism outputs the finished capsules. Finally, the mold cleaning mechanism cleans and tidies the upper and lower modules before starting the next work cycle. During the physical filling of the capsule, due to the fluidity of some materials, a complete powder column cannot be formed. This causes excess material to fall from the capsule and accumulate on the surface of the lower module. When the capsule cap and capsule are subsequently locked, the material on the surface of the lower module is squeezed and stuck to the surface of the lower module by the upper module. Over time, this causes the material to accumulate on the surface of the lower module, resulting in a gap between the upper and lower modules when the capsule cap and capsule are locked. This affects the locking effect of the capsule cap and capsule and is also not conducive to cleaning the lower module. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a capsule filling machine filling module that is simple in structure, reasonable in design, avoids material accumulation on the surface of the lower module, and is easy to clean.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a capsule filling machine filling module, including an upper module and a lower module, the upper module and the lower module are correspondingly arranged, the upper module is provided with at least two rows of upper mold holes, the two rows of upper mold holes are staggered with each other, the lower module is provided with at least two rows of lower mold holes corresponding to the upper mold holes of the upper module, and the upper surface of the lower module is provided with a powder leakage groove between two adjacent rows of lower mold holes, the powder leakage groove is provided through the upper surface of the lower module.
[0005] Preferably, the powder leakage groove is a rectangular groove, an arc-shaped groove, or a trapezoidal groove.
[0006] Preferably, the upper module has an upper mounting block for installation and fixing on its inner side, and the lower module has an insert for installation and fixing on its inner side, with lower mounting blocks symmetrically arranged on both sides of the insert.
[0007] This invention features a powder-leaking groove between two adjacent rows of lower die holes in the lower module. Material falling onto the surface of the lower module is drawn into the groove by centrifugal force as the indexing turntable rotates, preventing material accumulation on the lower module surface. Furthermore, the powder-leaking groove extends through the upper surface of the lower module, facilitating easy removal of material during subsequent cleaning. This invention offers advantages such as simple structure, reasonable design, prevention of material accumulation on the lower module surface, and ease of cleaning. Attached Figure Description

[0010] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0011] Example:
[0012] like Figure 1 The capsule filling machine filling module shown includes an upper module 1 and a lower module 2. The upper module 1 and the lower module 2 are correspondingly arranged. The upper module 1 has at least two rows of upper mold holes 3, which are staggered. The lower module 2 has at least two rows of lower mold holes 4, which are corresponding to the upper mold holes 3 of the upper module 1. The upper surface of the lower module 2 has a powder leakage groove 5 between two adjacent rows of lower mold holes 4. The powder leakage groove 5 is a rectangular groove, an arc groove, or a trapezoidal groove, and the powder leakage groove 5 is disposed through the upper surface of the lower module 2. The upper module 1 has an upper mounting block 6 for installation and fixing, and the lower module 2 has an insert 7 for installation and fixing. The insert 7 has lower mounting blocks 8 symmetrically arranged on both sides.
[0013] When this utility model is in use, the centrifugal force caused the material falling on the surface of the lower module 2 to fall into the powder leakage trough 5 when the indexing turntable rotates, thus preventing the material from accumulating on the surface of the lower module 2. The powder leakage trough 5 is also installed through the upper surface of the lower module 2, making it convenient to remove the material in the powder leakage trough 5 during subsequent cleaning.
[0014] The embodiments described above are merely preferred solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model in any way. Other variations and modifications are possible without departing from the technical solutions described in the claims.
