Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically a soft capsule shaping and drying device. Background Technology

[0002] After the soft capsules are manufactured and formed, their outer surface is still soft and needs to be dried to cool and set.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent (publication number: CN219264784U) that discloses a soft capsule shaping and drying device. After the soft capsules are dried in the drying cylinder, the cylinder cover needs to be removed. Under its own gravity, the drying cylinder drives the rotating block to rotate downward around the fixed axis, eventually tilting to discharge the dried soft capsules from the drying cylinder.

[0004] However, the drying cylinder and the cylinder cover are fixed with bolts, and a cam assembly is connected to one side of the cylinder cover. The cam assembly is placed on the vertical plate 2. If the cylinder cover is to be removed from the drying cylinder, not only do multiple bolts need to be removed, but after the bolts are removed, the cam assembly and the cylinder cover also need to be removed so that the drying cylinder can rotate and tilt. Since there is no support equipment under the drying cylinder, the drying cylinder will rotate under its own weight, which will cause the capsules in the drying cylinder to scatter, making it inconvenient to collect. Furthermore, without support equipment, the drying cylinder is in a tilted state, which is not conducive to filling the drying cylinder with soft capsules. Utility Model Content

[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 1-5 This utility model discloses a soft capsule shaping and drying device, including a fixed plate 1. The bottom of the fixed plate 1 is coated with an anti-slip coating to increase the friction with the ground. Support plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top wall of the fixed plate 1. A motor 3 is installed on the upper outer wall of one support plate 2. A drying cylinder 4 with a number of ventilation holes is arranged between the two support plates 2. A fan matching the length of the drying cylinder 4 is installed on one side of the top of the fixed plate 1, which can blow air into the drying cylinder 4 and enter the drying cylinder 4 through the ventilation holes to dry the soft capsules in the drying cylinder 4.

[0028] The drying cylinder 4 has an inlet / outlet pipe 6 fixedly connected to its outer wall in the middle, which is used to fill the drying cylinder 4 with soft capsules. The inner wall of the drying cylinder 4 is olive-shaped. The dried soft capsules in the drying cylinder 4 are discharged through the inlet / outlet pipe 6. A sealing cap 7 is threaded on the inlet / outlet pipe 6 to seal the inlet / outlet pipe 6 and prevent the soft capsules from falling out of the inlet / outlet pipe 6 during the rotation of the drying cylinder 4. Both sides of the drying cylinder 4 are fixedly connected to shafts 5 that are rotatably connected to the support plate 2, and one side of the shaft 5 is connected to the motor 3.

[0029] Two corresponding limiting blocks 8 are fixedly connected to the side of the drying cylinder 4 away from the motor 3, and a fixing component 9 is provided on the support plate 2 away from the motor 3 to lock the limiting blocks 8, thereby fixing the drying cylinder 4 and preventing it from rotating. The inlet and outlet pipes 6 and the two limiting blocks 8 are on the same longitudinal section. One of the limiting blocks 8 can be fixed by the fixing component 9 so that the opening of the inlet and outlet pipe 6 faces upward, so that soft capsules can be filled into the drying cylinder 4. If the other limiting block 8 is fixed, the opening of the inlet and outlet pipe 6 faces downward, so that the dried soft capsules in the drying cylinder 4 can be easily discharged.

[0030] The shaft 5 consists of a rotating shaft 10 and a rotating block 11. The rotating shaft 10 and the rotating block 11 are fixedly connected, and the rotating shaft 10 is connected to the drying cylinder 4. The rotating block 11 is placed in the support plate 2 and can rotate, so that the rotating block 11 limits the rotating shaft 10 and prevents the rotating shaft 10 from moving on the support plate 2, thereby improving the stability of the rotating shaft 10 during rotation.

[0031] The sealing cap 7 consists of a cap body 12 and a handle 13. The cap body 12 is threadedly connected to the inlet and outlet pipe 6. By holding the handle 13, the drying cylinder 4 can be rotated to make a fine adjustment of the orientation of the inlet and outlet pipe 6 so that the fixing component 9 can fix the limiting block 8, thereby fixing the drying cylinder 4.

[0032] The fixing component 9 consists of a threaded rod 14, a rotating handle 15, and a recessed block 16. The rotating handle 15 and the recessed block 16 are respectively connected to the two ends of the threaded rod 14, and the threaded rod 14 is threadedly connected to the support plate 2. One side of the recessed block 16 is provided with a groove that can accommodate the limiting block 8. By rotating the rotating handle 15, the threaded rod 14 is driven to rotate on the support plate 2, so that the recessed block 16 moves closer to or away from the limiting block 8. When it moves closer to the limiting block 8, the groove of the recessed block 16 puts the limiting block 8 into it, thereby fixing the drying cylinder 4.

[0033] In summary, when filling soft capsules, the soft capsule shaping and drying device involves holding the handle 13, rotating the drying cylinder 4 so that the inlet and outlet pipe 6 connected to the drying cylinder 4 faces upward, then rotating the handle 15 to rotate the threaded rod 14 on the support plate 2, causing the concave block 16 to move towards the limiting block 8 and enter the groove to fix the drying cylinder 4. Then, rotating the handle 13 removes the cap 12 from the inlet and outlet pipe 6 and inserts the soft capsule into the inlet and outlet pipe 6. Then, holding the handle 13, the cap 12 is rotated and tightened onto the inlet and outlet pipe 6 to seal the soft capsule. The handle 15 is then rotated in the opposite direction to cause the threaded rod 14 to drive the concave block 16 to fall off the limiting block 8.

[0034] Start the fan and motor 3. The motor 3 drives the drying cylinder 4 to rotate through the shaft 5. The air blown out by the fan enters the drying cylinder 4 through the ventilation holes to dry the soft capsules.

[0035] After a certain period of time, once the soft capsules are dried, stop the motor 3 and the fan. Then, hold the handle 13 and rotate the drying cylinder 4 so that the inlet and outlet pipe 6 faces downward. Then, by rotating the handle 15, the threaded rod 14 drives the groove of the concave block 16 to approach the limiting block 8, and the limiting block 8 enters the groove, thereby fixing the drying cylinder 4.

[0036] Place a collection device at the bottom of the inlet / outlet tube 6, hold the handle 13 and rotate the cap 12 to remove it from the inlet / outlet tube 6. The dried soft capsule will fall along the inlet / outlet tube 6 into the collection device.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
