[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a tablet press for producing sacubitril / valsartan sodium tablets, including a housing 10 and an installation chamber 11 fixed to the top of the housing 10 and communicating with the housing 10. Two symmetrically arranged cranks 20 are rotatably connected inside the installation chamber 11. A drive motor is fixed inside the installation chamber 11. The output end of the drive motor is connected to a power shaft via a belt. The power shaft is fixed to the side wall of the cranks 20. A movable rod 21 located inside the housing 10 is rotatably connected between the two cranks 20. A diagonal rod 22 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the movable rod 21. An adjusting rod 30 and a punching rod 40 are respectively engaged at both ends of the diagonal rod 22. An upper mold 41 is fixed to the bottom of the punching rod 40. A gear 50 is engaged on the side of the punching rod 40 away from the diagonal rod 22. A fixed rack 51 fixed inside the housing 10 is engaged on the other side of the gear 50. A screw 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the adjusting rod 30. The screw 31 is threadedly connected to the top of the housing 10. By rotating the screw 31 to adjust the height of the adjusting rod 30 in the vertical direction, the swing amplitude of the movable rod 21 and the inclined rod 22 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the vertical movement amplitude of the stamping rod 40 and the mold 41 at its bottom, and thus adjusting the tablet thickness of sacubitril / valsartan sodium tablets.
[0028] The tablet press used for producing sacubitril / valsartan sodium tablets has two teeth fixed to its adjacent sidewalls: the inclined rod 22 and the adjusting rod 30. Two teeth mesh with each other, with a clearance fit between them. Similarly, two teeth are fixed to the adjacent sidewalls of the inclined rod 22 and the punch rod 40. Two teeth mesh with each other, also with a clearance fit between them. This ensures smooth vertical movement of the punch rod 40. A slide block 52 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixed rack 51, and a gear 50 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixed rack 51. The slide block 52 limits the movement of the gear 50, preventing the punch rod 40 from jamming during vertical movement.
[0029] The tablet press for producing sacubitril / valsartan sodium tablets has a screw 31 that passes through and is threadedly connected to the housing 10. An adjusting handle is fixed to the top of the screw 31, and a triangular arrow is positioned on the top of the handle. The screw 31 is used to adjust the vertical position of the adjusting rod 30, and the arrow serves as an indicator for easy observation. A positioning cylinder 42 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 10, and an upper mold 41 is slidably connected within the positioning cylinder 42. A conveyor belt 43 is located below the positioning cylinder 42, and a lower mold is mounted on the conveyor belt 43, containing the material.
[0030] Working principle:
[0031] Rotate the adjusting handle located at the top of the screw 31, using the triangular arrow as an indicator, to adjust the vertical position of the screw 31 at the top of the housing 10.
[0032] The output of the drive motor drives the power shaft to rotate via a belt. The power shaft is fixed to the side wall of the crank 20, thereby driving the crank 20 to rotate. The rotation of the crank 20, through the linkage of the movable rod 21 and the inclined rod 22, causes the stamping rod 40 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.
[0033] During this process: due to the meshing of the first tooth of the adjusting rod 30 and the inclined rod 22, the inclined rod 22 will swing accordingly. The swing of the inclined rod 22 changes the vertical movement amplitude of the stamping rod 40 through the interaction of the second tooth and the stamping rod 40, thereby adjusting the stamping depth of the upper die 41, and thus realizing the adjustment of the tablet thickness of sacubitril / valsartan sodium tablets.
[0034] When the stamping rod 40 descends, the upper die 41 contacts the lower die on the conveyor belt 43, stamping the material. The gear 50 slides on the fixed rack 51 and is simultaneously limited by the slide block 52, ensuring that the stamping rod 40 moves smoothly and does not jam. After tableting is completed, the stamping rod 40 rises, the upper die 41 leaves the lower die, and the conveyor belt 43 transports the pressed tablets to the next process.
