Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule packaging technology, specifically a capsule blister packaging feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] The capsule blister packaging feeding device is one of the essential key pieces of equipment in the pharmaceutical industry. Its main function and purpose is to feed capsules into the forming mold of the blister packaging machine in an orderly and precise manner to ensure that the number, arrangement and position of capsules in each packaging unit are accurate.

[0003] Capsule blister packaging feeding devices typically consist of key components such as a vibratory feeder, a feeding track, sensors, and a control system. The working principle is that the vibratory feeder generates vibrations, causing the capsules to be arranged in an orderly manner and move forward on the track in a predetermined direction. The sensors monitor the position and quantity of the capsules in real time. Once a shortage or misalignment is detected, a signal is immediately sent to the control system. The control system then adjusts the vibration frequency and feeding speed of the vibratory feeder according to a preset program to ensure a stable supply of capsules.

[0004] However, in actual use, the existing equipment may lack an effective adjustment mechanism for irregularly shaped capsules, which can easily lead to problems such as blockage and positional displacement of the capsules during the feeding process, affecting feeding efficiency and packaging quality. In view of this, we propose a capsule blister packaging feeding device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a capsule blister packaging feeding device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A capsule blister packaging feeding device includes a conveying device, a housing fixedly mounted on the conveying device, and a vibration component disposed on the housing. The vibration component includes:

[0010] A helical spring is provided, with one end of the helical spring fixedly installed inside the circular groove, the other end of the helical spring fixedly installed inside the wide groove, a rubber rod fixedly installed inside the wide groove, a dustproof plate snapped onto the long groove, and a vibration motor fixedly installed on the long block.

[0011] Preferably, multiple sets of the hose, straight pipe, discharge pipe, conical groove, circular groove, helical spring, and rubber rod are provided.

[0012] Preferably, the long groove and the wide groove are spatially connected, and the internal spaces of the multiple sets of hoses, straight pipes, discharge pipes and conical grooves are connected.

[0013] Preferably, multiple sets of the conical grooves are arranged inside the opening, the long block and the vibration motor are arranged inside the long groove, and the other end of the rubber rod is attached to the bottom of the long block.

[0014] Preferably, the outer casing is provided with a pulling assembly, the pulling assembly including a compression spring, one end of the compression spring is fixedly installed on the long block, a circular plate is fixedly installed on the dustproof plate, the other end of the compression spring is fixedly installed on the circular plate, a cylinder is fixedly installed on the circular plate, one end of a thin rod is fixedly installed on the long block, one end of the thin rod away from the long block is fixedly installed with a dustproof ring, and the other end of the dustproof ring is fixedly installed with a handle.

[0015] Preferably, the compression spring, circular plate, cylinder, thin rod, dustproof ring, and handle are provided in multiple sets.

[0016] Preferably, the thin rod slides inside the cylinder, and the other end of the thin rod passes through the dustproof plate.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a capsule blister packaging feeding device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In order to ensure the smooth operation of the capsule blister packaging feeding device, a vibration component is set up. This component, together with the funnel block on the outer shell, serves as the capsule receiving inlet. When a long capsule enters the funnel block, its irregular shape makes it easy for it to shift position and have difficulty entering the straight tube. At this time, the vibration motor installed on the long block starts to work, and the vibration generated is transmitted to the entire feeding structure through the long block. This vibration causes the capsule to continuously adjust its position in the funnel block and the conical groove, overcoming the shift problem caused by its irregular shape.

[0019] 2. To further ensure the efficient operation of this capsule blister packaging feeding device, a pulling component is installed. When this component works in conjunction with the vibration component, if some capsules still have difficulty entering the straight tube smoothly, the operator can slightly pull the handle to move the thin rod and the long block. At this time, the compression spring is stretched. After releasing the handle, under the elastic force of the compression spring, the long block quickly returns to its original position and generates a strong shaking. This shaking further adjusts the position of the capsules in the funnel block and the conical groove, so that capsules that originally had difficulty entering the straight tube due to poor positioning can effectively improve the success rate of capsules entering the straight tube under the additional vibration.

Furthermore, the term "above" may also be used in certain circumstances to indicate a dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0029] A capsule blister packaging feeding device includes a conveying device 1, on which a housing 2 is fixedly installed. The conveying device 1 uses a conveyor belt as a load-bearing and traction component. The conveyor belt is wound around a drive roller and a redirecting roller to form an endless loop. The drive roller drives the conveyor belt to run through the friction between the drive roller and the conveyor belt. The capsule blister packs are placed on the conveyor belt and are conveyed as the conveyor belt moves.

[0030] In one embodiment of this utility model, a vibration assembly 3 is provided on the outer shell 2. The vibration assembly 3 includes a funnel block 31. The funnel block 31 is fixedly installed on the outer shell 2. A long groove 32 is formed on the outer shell 2. A wide groove 33 is formed on the inner side of the outer shell 2. An opening 34 is formed on the inner side of the funnel block 31. A flexible tube 35 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the wide groove 33. A straight tube 36 is fixedly installed at one end of the flexible tube 35. An installation plate 37 is fixedly installed on the outer shell 2. The other end of the straight tube 36 passes through the installation plate 37. A discharge pipe 38 is fixedly installed at the other end of the straight tube 36. A long block 39 is fixedly installed at the other end of the flexible tube 35. A conical groove 310 is formed on the long block 39. A circular groove 311 is formed on the long block 39. A spiral spring is fixedly installed inside the circular groove 311. One end of spring 312 and the other end of helical spring 312 are fixedly installed inside the wide groove 33. A rubber rod 313 is fixedly installed inside the wide groove 33. A dustproof plate 314 is snapped onto the long groove 32. A vibration motor 315 is fixedly installed on the long block 39. Multiple sets of hose 35, straight pipe 36, discharge pipe 38, conical groove 310, circular groove 311, helical spring 312, and rubber rod 313 are provided. The long groove 32 and the wide groove 33 are spatially connected. The internal spaces of multiple sets of hose 35, straight pipe 36, discharge pipe 38 and conical groove 310 are connected. Multiple sets of conical groove 310 are located inside the opening 34. The long block 39 and vibration motor 315 are located inside the long groove 32. The other end of rubber rod 313 is attached to the bottom of long block 39.

[0031] In this embodiment, the funnel block 31 serves as the inlet for receiving the capsule. When the elongated capsule enters the funnel block 31, its irregular shape makes it prone to positional shifts during descent. The opening 34 on the inner side of the funnel block 31 connects to multiple sets of conical grooves 310, providing initial guidance for the capsule to enter the straight tube 36. After the capsule enters the funnel block 31, the vibration motor 315 mounted on the elongated block 39 starts. The vibration generated by the motor 315 is transmitted to the entire feeding structure through the elongated block 39. Under the action of vibration, the elongated block 39 causes the conical grooves 310, the flexible tube 35, and other components to vibrate together. This vibration causes the capsule to vibrate within the funnel block 31 and the conical grooves 310. The internal position is continuously adjusted to overcome the offset problem caused by the irregular shape. Under the action of vibration, the capsule gradually moves towards the straight tube 36. The internal space between the multiple sets of hoses 35, straight tube 36, discharge tube 38 and conical groove 310 is connected, so that the capsule can smoothly enter the straight tube 36 and then enter the subsequent blister packaging process through the discharge tube 38. This ensures the smooth operation of the capsule blister packaging feeding device. At the same time, the dustproof plate 314 installed on the long groove 32 can prevent external dust, debris and other objects from entering the long groove 32 and wide groove 33, avoiding these impurities from affecting the normal operation of the vibration component 3, protecting the vibration motor 315, helical spring 312 and other components, and extending their service life.

[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, a pulling component 4 is provided on the outer shell 2. The pulling component 4 includes a compression spring 41. One end of the compression spring 41 is fixedly installed on the long block 39. A circular plate 42 is fixedly installed on the dustproof plate 314. The other end of the compression spring 41 is fixedly installed on the circular plate 42. A cylinder 43 is fixedly installed on the circular plate 42. One end of a thin rod 44 is fixedly installed on the long block 39. One end of a dustproof ring 45 is fixedly installed on the end of the thin rod 44 away from the long block 39. A handle 46 is fixedly installed on the other end of the dustproof ring 45. Multiple sets of compression spring 41, circular plate 42, cylinder 43, thin rod 44, dustproof ring 45 and handle 46 are provided. The thin rod 44 slides inside the cylinder 43. The other end of the thin rod 44 passes through the dustproof plate 314.

[0033] In this embodiment, when the vibration component 3 is working, if some capsules still have difficulty entering the straight tube 36 smoothly, the operator can operate the pulling component 4 by pulling the handle 46. The handle 46 is fixed to one end of the dustproof ring 45, and the other end of the dustproof ring 45 is connected to the thin rod 44. One end of the thin rod 44 is fixed to the long block 39. When the handle 46 is pulled, the thin rod 44 is driven to move the long block 39. One end of the compression spring 41 fixed on the long block 39 is connected to the long block 39, and the other end is connected to the circular plate 42. The circular plate 42 is fixed to the dustproof plate 314. When the handle 46 is pulled to move the long block 39, the compression spring 41 is activated. When stretched and storing elastic potential energy, the long block 39 quickly returns to its original position and generates a strong shaking under the elastic force of the compression spring 41 after being released. This shaking further adjusts the position of the capsule in the funnel block 31 and the conical groove 310, so that the capsule, which was originally difficult to enter the straight tube 36 due to poor position, can smoothly enter the straight tube 36 under the additional vibration. The thin rod 44 slides in the cylinder 43, which plays a guiding role and ensures the stable movement of the long block 39. The pulling component 4 and the vibration component 3 work together to effectively improve the success rate of the capsule entering the straight tube 36 and ensure the efficient operation of the feeding device.
