[0032] Tablets are a common solid preparation in life, with the advantages of accurate dosage, good chemical stability, convenient carrying, high degree of mechanization and automation in production, and the ability to meet the needs of different purposes, and are widely used in the fields of medicine, food, daily chemical products, etc.

[0033] In the field of pet medicine, the content of the effective component of pet medicine tablets is often fixed, and the dosage is obviously too large for pets, so when treating diseases in pets, a tablet cutter needs to be additionally matched to divide the tablets into small parts, which increases the additional auxiliary instruments, which is extremely troublesome for pet owners and medical personnel.

[0034] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 To solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application provides a tablet 100 capable of automatic tablet division, which comprises a tablet body 110 and a plurality of stress feet 120.

[0035] The tablet body 110 has oppositely arranged support sides 111 and pressing sides 112, and at least one division groove 1121 is formed on the pressing side 112. The plurality of stress feet 120 are arranged at intervals on the pressing side 112, and each adjacent two stress feet 120 have a division groove 1121 therebetween.

[0036] Exemplarily, the tablet 100 can be a pet medicine tablet, a tablet-shaped seasoning, an effervescent tablet, etc., and the type of the tablet 100 is not specifically limited here.

[0037] It can be understood that the embodiment provides a tablet 100, which comprises a tablet body 110 and a plurality of stress feet 120, the tablet body 110 has oppositely arranged support sides 111 and pressing sides 112, at least one segmentation groove 1121 is arranged on the pressing side 112, and the plurality of stress feet 120 are arranged on the pressing side 112 at intervals, and each adjacent two stress feet 120 has a segmentation groove 1121. In this way, when segmentation, the support side 111 is placed towards the common placement platform such as a desktop, a table top and the like, the tablet 100 is pressed from the pressing side 112, and the tablet 100 will be automatically segmented into small portions with the same number as the stress feet 120 due to the stress difference between the stress feet 120 and the segmentation groove 1121. In this process, the tablet 100 can be segmented directly by pressing without using additional auxiliary instruments such as a medicine cutter, so that the use of the tablet 100 is more convenient.

[0038] It should be noted that the number relationship between the stress feet 120 and the segmentation grooves 1121 can be that the stress feet 120 are provided with two, and the segmentation grooves 1121 are provided with one, so that the tablet 100 can be segmented into two portions by the two stress feet 120 and the one segmentation groove 1121. Of course, the number relationship between the stress feet 120 and the segmentation grooves 1121 can also be that the stress feet 120 are provided with more than three, and the segmentation grooves 1121 are provided with multiple, i.e. two or more than two, at this time, the multiple segmentation grooves 1121 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction x of the tablet body 110, and the multiple stress feet 120 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction x of the tablet body 110. It can be understood that three stress feet 120 and three segmentation grooves 1121 can segment the tablet 100 into three portions, four stress feet 120 and four segmentation grooves 1121 can segment the tablet 100 into four portions, and six stress feet 120 and six segmentation grooves 1121 can segment the tablet 100 into six portions. As can be seen, the number of portions that the tablet 100 can be segmented into depends on the number of stress feet 120, and the number of stress feet 120 and the number of segmentation grooves 1121 are not specifically limited here.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 1 Further, the included angle between each adjacent two stress feet 120 is γ, the number of stress feet 120 and the number of segmentation grooves 1121 are m, and the relationship satisfies: m≥3, γ=360° / m. In this way, the multiple stress feet 120 are equally arranged within 360°, which is convenient for the user to segment the tablet 100 into each fixed dose, for example, three stress feet 120 and three segmentation grooves 1121 can equally divide the tablet 100 into three portions to segment into three portions; four stress feet 120 and four segmentation grooves 1121 can equally divide the tablet 100 into four portions to segment into four portions; and six stress feet 120 and six segmentation grooves 1121 can equally divide the tablet 100 into six portions to segment into six portions.

[0040] It should be noted that if the above relationship γ = 360° / m is not satisfied, it is possible to divide tablet 100 into portions with a variable dosage, that is, not to divide tablet 100 into equal portions. This will not be elaborated on here.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, furthermore, multiple dividing grooves 1121 are interconnected at the center of the tablet body 110, so that the tablet 100 can be completely and evenly divided into small portions when pressed, resulting in a better dividing effect.

[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, each force-bearing foot 120 includes an arc 121 and a diagonal line 122. The arc 121 is disposed near the outer peripheral side 113 of the tablet body 110, and the diagonal line 122 is disposed away from the outer peripheral side 113 of the tablet body 110. The arc 121 and the diagonal line 122 are connected to form a force-bearing part 123.

[0043] In this embodiment, the force-receiving part 123 is formed by connecting the arc 121 and the oblique line 122. The force-receiving part 123 enables a force difference to be formed between the force-receiving foot 120 and the dividing groove 1121 when the tablet 100 is pressed, so that the tablet 100 can be divided into small portions with the same number of force-receiving feet 120.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the angle formed between the diagonal line 122 and the pressing side 112 is α, which satisfies the relationship: 5°≤α≤30°.

[0045] For example, the included angle α formed between the diagonal line 122 and the pressing side 112 can be any value from 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9°, 9.5°, 10°, 10.5°, 10.6°, 11°, 13°, 15°, 18°, 20°, 21°, 24°, 25°, 27°, 29°, 30° or any value from a range of both.

[0046] In this embodiment, by setting the included angle α between the diagonal line 122 and the pressing side 112 within the range of 5° to 30°, it is easier for users to press the tablet 100. Users only need to press the supporting side 111 of the tablet 100 lightly to divide the tablet 100, making the use of the tablet 100 more convenient.

[0047] Of course, for the above embodiment, the force receiving foot 120 is not limited to the combination of the arc line 121 and the inclined line 122. The force receiving foot 120 can also be a combination of two inclined lines 122, which can form a triangular structure together with the pressing side 112. The force receiving foot 120 can also be a combination of two arc lines 121, which can form a structure with an arc-shaped periphery and a sharp middle. In this way, the force receiving foot 120 and the division groove 1121 can have a force difference when the tablet 100 is pressed. The structure of the force receiving foot 120 is not specifically limited here.

[0048] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 2 In one embodiment, each division groove 1121 has a first groove wall 1122 and a second groove wall 1123 connected thereto, and the included angle β between the first groove wall 1122 and the second groove wall 1123 satisfies the relationship: 30°≤β≤125°.

[0049] For example, the included angle β between the first groove wall 1122 and the second groove wall 1123 at the division groove 1121 can be selected as any one of 30°, 31°, 32°, 35°, 38°, 40°, 42°, 45°, 48°, 50°, 55°, 58°, 60°, 61°, 62°, 64°, 69°, 70°, 72°, 75°, 79°, 80°, 85°, 88°, 90°, 92°, 95°, 99°, 100°, 101°, 105°, 110°, 115°, 120°, 125°, or any range formed by any two of them.

[0050] In this embodiment, by setting the included angle β between the first groove wall 1122 and the second groove wall 1123 at the division groove 1121 within the range of 30° to 125°, the overall structure of the tablet 100 can be made relatively weak when the tablet 100 is pressed, so that the tablet 100 can be more easily divided into small portions, while not being too weak to cause the tablet 100 to be easily divided (i.e., the tablet 100 is accidentally divided during transportation and packaging), making the use of the tablet 100 more convenient.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 2 Further, as shown in FIG. 1,

[0052] In this embodiment, by providing the rounded corner portion 1124, the stress can be concentrated at the connection between the first groove wall 1122 and the second groove wall 1123, thereby reducing the possibility of accidental division of the tablet 100 during transportation and packaging.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the tablet 100 is placed on a placement platform, and the support side 111 is arc-shaped and oriented towards the placement platform. By setting the support side 111 to an arc shape, a greater force difference can be created between the force-bearing foot 120 and the dividing groove 1121, making it easier to divide the tablet 100 and further reducing the effort required when the user presses the tablet 100. Of course, the shape of the support side 111 can also be flat, curved, etc., and no specific limitation is made to the shape of the support side 111 here.

[0054] For example, the aforementioned placement platform can be a common item in daily life such as a desktop, countertop, or cutting board, and the placement platform is not a complementary product of tablet 100.

[0055] In one embodiment, the tablet 100 can be integrally formed by a stamping die, that is, the tablet body 110 and the force-bearing foot 120 are an integral structure.

[0056] In this embodiment, the tablet 100 is integrally formed by stamping mold, which facilitates production and reduces production costs.

[0057] It should be noted that the materials for stamping dies can be selected from those with good wear resistance, hardness, and corrosion resistance, such as SKD chromium-molybdenum alloy, cemented carbide, or stainless steel, to ensure that the stamping dies can be used stably for a long time and meet relevant safety standards.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, when the tablet 100 is a circular tablet, the groove width of the dividing groove 1121 is w, and the diameter of the circular tablet is d. The two satisfy the relationship: 0.1≤w / d≤0.25.

[0059] For example, w / d can be any value from 0.1, 0.11, 0.12, 0.15, 0.18, 0.19, 0.2, 0.21, 0.22, 0.23, 0.235, 0.24, 0.25 or any value from a range of both.

[0060] In this embodiment, by controlling the ratio w / d between the groove width w of the dividing groove 1121 and the diameter d of the tablet 100 within the range of 0.1 to 0.25, that is, the groove width w of the dividing groove 1121 is 10% to 25% of the diameter d of the tablet 100, the tablet 100 can be more easily divided when pressed, but the brittleness of the tablet 100 will not be affected by the excessively large groove width w of the dividing groove 1121.

[0061] Of course, for the above-described embodiments, the shape of the tablet 100 can also be an ellipse, a polygon, etc., such as a rectangle (a square or a rectangle), a parallelogram, a trapezoid, a pentagon, a hexagon, etc., and the shape of the tablet 100 is not particularly limited herein.

[0062] In the description of the present specification, the description referring to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "an example", "a specific example", or "some examples" etc. means that the specific feature, structure, material or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present application. In the present specification, the illustrative description of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Also, the specific feature, structure, material or characteristic described can be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. Furthermore, the person skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in the present specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples, without contradiction.

[0063] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above-described embodiments are exemplary and are not to be construed as limiting the present application, and the person skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, replacements and variations to the above-described embodiments within the scope of the present application.
