Detailed Implementation
[0024] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a tablet forming mold is disclosed, comprising a mold body 1. The top of the mold body 1 has multiple mold holes 12. One inner wall of the mold body 1 has multiple L-shaped grooves 18 evenly distributed, with each L-shaped groove 18 located directly below an adjacent mold hole 12. Spring pistons are slidably mounted inside each L-shaped groove 18. The movable ends of each spring piston pass through the L-shaped groove 18 and are fixedly connected to a top block 13. Each spring piston includes a T-shaped piston 15, which is sealed and fitted against the inner wall of the adjacent L-shaped groove 18. One end of the T-shaped piston 15 passes through the adjacent L-shaped groove 18 and is fixedly connected to the adjacent top block 13. A first spring 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the T-shaped piston 15. The movement stroke of the 8 pairs of T-shaped pistons 15 is limited to ensure that when the top block 13 rises to the top, its top is at the same level as the top of the mold body 1. Multiple top blocks 13 slide against the inner wall of the adjacent mold hole 12, which is conducive to forming the tablet and also to ejecting the formed tablet. The mold body 1 has a first piston 20 that slides inside in a sealed manner. A guide rod 19 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the first piston 20. The guide rod 19 passes through the mold body 1 and is slidably connected to it. The guide rod 19 and the mold body 1 have a limiting effect to ensure the stability of the movement of the mold body 1. A solenoid valve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mold body 1. The solenoid valve can control whether the inside of the mold body 1 located on the side of the L-shaped groove 18 is connected to the outside.
[0026] A mounting base 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the guide rod 19 away from the first piston 20. A housing 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the mounting base 6. A stroke hole 10 extending into the interior is opened on one side of the outer surface of the housing 9. A second piston 16 is slidably sealed inside the housing 9. A guide plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the second piston 16 and is disposed through the housing 9 and slides in a sealed manner. An assembly base 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide plate 4. Multiple punches 11 are evenly fixedly connected to the bottom of the assembly base 3. Each punch 11 is matched with an adjacent die hole 12. The punches 11 and the die hole 12 can cooperate to compress tablets.
[0027] Two fixed tubes 8 are symmetrically fixed through one side of the outer surface of the outer shell 9. The other end of each fixed tube 8 is fixedly connected to an air cylinder 7. Both air cylinders 7 are connected to the mold body 1 with a U-shaped elastic piston. Both U-shaped elastic pistons include a third piston 23. The third piston 23 is sealed and slides with the inner wall of the adjacent air cylinder 7. A U-shaped rod 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the third piston 23. The U-shaped rod 5 passes through the air cylinder 7 and is slidably connected to it. The U-shaped rod 5 is fixedly connected to the mold body 1. Two second springs 22 are fixedly connected to the third piston 23 and the air cylinder 7. In the absence of external force, the second springs 22 keep the third piston 23 in its original position under their own elastic force.
[0028] The top of the mold body 1 is sealed with a hopper 2, which is used for adding materials.
[0029] The outer surface of both the mold body 1 and the two air cylinders 7 is provided with air holes 17 that penetrate into the interior, which can reduce the movement resistance of the first piston 20 and the third piston 23.
[0030] An inclined discharge trough 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the outer casing 9.
[0031] Working principle: First, the entire assembly is installed on the existing stamping equipment. The mounting base 3 is fixedly installed on the stamping head of the stamping machine, and the mounting base 6 is fixedly installed on the worktable. The hopper 2 can be fixedly connected to the mounting base 9 or the worktable of the stamping equipment using an existing L-shaped steel plate. The installation position of the L-shaped steel plate should avoid affecting the overall use. During daily use, after the tablets are pressed, the mounting base 3 rises under the action of the stamping equipment, which will drive the guide plate 4 and the second piston 16 to rise, and at the same time drive the punch 11 to rise. When the punch 11 moves out of the die hole 12, the second piston 16 is partially higher than the stroke hole 10. At this time, the inside of the outer shell 9 is in a closed state. As the second piston 16 rises, it will force the air at the top of the outer shell 9 into the two fixed pipes 8, and then into the air cylinder 7 to push the corresponding third piston 23 away from the outer shell 9. 23. The U-shaped rod 5 drives the mold body 1 away from the outer shell 9. Since the guide rod 19 is fixed, the first piston 20 compresses the gas space inside the mold body 1. The gas enters each L-shaped slot 17 and then pushes the top block 13 up through the T-shaped piston 15, pushing the tablet out of the mold hole 12. When the tablet comes into contact with the hopper 2, it will be gradually pushed to the edge of the mold 1 until it falls onto the discharge groove 21. At this time, multiple mold holes 12 are located below the hopper 2. The solenoid valve controls the connection between the inside and outside of the mold 1. The first spring 14 drives the top block 13 to reset through the T-shaped piston 15. The powder in the hopper 2 falls into the mold hole 12 and then the tableting operation is performed again. The punch 11, the second piston 16 and other components are reset. Then the third piston 23 is reset under the action of the second spring 22 and the negative pressure, thereby driving the mold body 1 to reset through the U-shaped rod 5.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
