Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shot slugging molds, specifically to a shot slugging mold for processing soft capsules. Background Technology

[0002] A soft capsule pressing mold is a piece of equipment used to produce soft capsules, mainly used to compress drugs or other ingredients into capsules of a specific shape.

[0003] While conventional pelleting molds used for soft capsule processing can achieve pelleting, they suffer from the following common drawbacks in practical applications:

[0004] 1. The pelleting mold is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble, making it difficult to change the corresponding pelleting mold when producing soft capsules of different sizes;

[0005] 2. It cannot achieve continuous feeding operations well. When the pellet receiving hopper located below the mold is full and a new pellet receiving hopper needs to be replaced, the equipment needs to be stopped briefly, which affects the production efficiency of soft capsules.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a pelletizing mold for processing soft capsules. Utility Model Content

[0023] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0024] Please refer to the appendix. Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a pelletizing mold for processing soft capsules, including a base 1, a back plate 2 vertically fixed to the top of the base 1, a nozzle 3 fixed to the top of the back plate 2, guide rollers 4 symmetrically rotatably connected to the two sides of the top of the back plate 2, and gelatin skin 5 pulled on the surface of the guide rollers 4. It should be noted that the setting of the nozzle 3 and the pulling structure of the gelatin skin 5 are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail. The nozzle 3 is used to inject the drug liquid, and the gelatin skin 5 is used to make the soft capsule outer shell. A pelletizing mold assembly is detachably installed on the back plate 2 through a drive component. The pelletizing mold assembly is located directly below the nozzle 3. An alternating feeding mechanism is fixed at the bottom of the back plate 2. The alternating feeding mechanism is located directly below the pelletizing mold assembly. The alternating feeding mechanism includes an adjustment component, a guiding component and a receiving component. The guiding component is fixed in the middle of the back plate 2 through the adjustment component, and the receiving component is detachably installed on the top of the base 1.

[0025] The drive assembly includes two first servo motors 6, the front ends of which are symmetrically fixed to the top of the rear end of the back plate 2. A first reducer 7 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the front end of the back plate 2. The reducer is a transmission device used for low speed and high torque. It reduces the speed of the electric motor, internal combustion engine or other high-speed power by meshing the gear with a small number of teeth on the input shaft of the reducer with the large gear on the output shaft. The output shafts of the two first servo motors 6 are respectively fixedly connected to the input shafts of the two first reducers 7. A connecting block 8 is fixed to the front end of the output shaft of each first reducer 7. A connecting slot 9 is opened at the center of the front end of each connecting block 8.

[0026] The pellet compression mold assembly includes two mold bodies 10. The surface of each mold body 10 is uniformly provided with soft capsule forming grooves 11. Each mold body 10 has a connecting pin 12 fixed at its rear end. The connecting pin 12 is inserted into the connecting slot 9. The upper and lower ends of the connecting block 8 are threaded with fixing screws 13. The fixing screws 13 are threaded to the connecting pins 12. Specifically, under the deceleration action of the first reducer 7, when the two first servo motors 6 are running, they can drive the two mold bodies 10 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby extruding the gelatin skin 5 into soft capsules. The formed soft capsules are fed out under the action of gravity. The operator only needs to disassemble and assemble the fixing screws 13 to control the disassembly and assembly of the connecting pins 12 and the connecting slot 9, which makes it convenient for the operator to disassemble and assemble the mold body 10. This makes the mold body 10 easy to disassemble and assemble, which is convenient for replacement and better suited for producing soft capsules of different sizes.

[0027] The adjustment assembly includes a second servo motor 14, the front end of which is fixed to the middle of the rear end of the back plate 2, and a second reducer 15 is fixed to the middle of the front end of the back plate 2. The front end of the output shaft of the second servo motor 14 is fixedly connected to the input shaft of the second reducer 15.

[0028] The material guiding assembly includes an inclined guide plate 16. The rear end of the guide plate 16 is fixed to the front end of the output shaft of the second servo motor 14. An upper baffle plate 17 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the guide plate 16, and a lower baffle plate 18 is symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the guide plate 16. Specifically, under the deceleration action of the second reducer 15, when the second servo motor 14 is running, it can drive the guide plate 16 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise or 90 degrees counterclockwise to the initial position (e.g., Figure 1 (as shown);

[0029] The receiving assembly includes two shot hoppers 19. The base 1 has symmetrically placed slots 20 on its top. The bottoms of the two shot hoppers 19 are placed in the two slots 20 respectively, making it convenient for operators to pick up and put in the shot hoppers 19. When the guide plate 16 is in its initial position, its bottom end is directly above the shot hopper 19 on the right side of the top of the base 1 (e.g., Figure 1 As shown, when the guide plate 16 rotates 90 degrees clockwise, its bottom end is directly above the shot hopper 19 on the top left of the base 1. That is, when the guide plate 16 is in the initial position, the formed soft capsules can be fed into the shot hopper 19 on the top right of the base 1 via the guide plate 16. When the shot hopper 19 is full, the operator only needs to run the second servo motor 14 to control the guide plate 16 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise. At this time, the formed soft capsules can be fed into the shot hopper 19 on the top left of the base 1 via the guide plate 16. This provides sufficient time for the operator to process the already full shot hopper 19, which can effectively realize the function of alternating soft capsule feeding, facilitate continuous soft capsule feeding operations, and help improve the production efficiency of soft capsules.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify this utility model or modify it into an equivalent technical solution using the technical solution described above. Therefore, any simple modifications or equivalent substitutions made based on the technical solution of this utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
