Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule packaging, specifically to a soft capsule counting machine. Background Technology
[0002] A soft capsule counting machine is a device used for automatically counting and packaging soft capsules, widely used in the pharmaceutical, health product, and food industries. This equipment can accurately count soft capsules or other granular materials and fill them into containers. However, existing soft capsule counting machines have a complex structure and multiple functions, making them difficult for inexperienced workers to operate. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects or deficiencies in the prior art, it is desirable to provide a soft capsule counting machine.
[0004] According to the technical solution provided in the embodiments of this application, a soft capsule counting machine includes a capsule box, a counting plate, a displacement plate, a drive system, and a support frame. The capsule box has a discharge port at its bottom. The counting plate has a plurality of equally spaced drop holes, arranged in two sets at intervals. The displacement plates are fixedly connected to both sides below the counting plate, and each displacement plate has a downwardly extending groove. The drive system is connected below the displacement plate to drive the counting plate so that the drop holes are moved horizontally below the discharge port. An anti-drop component is set relative to the discharge port, and the counting plate is located between the two. The anti-drop component is fixed to the support frame through the grooves on both sides.
[0005] Furthermore, in this invention, the capsule box is tapered at the bottom and its two sides are fixedly connected to the support frame by connecting plates.
[0006] Furthermore, in this invention, anti-detachment strips are fixedly connected to both sides of the counting plate at an angle.
[0007] In this invention, the anti-falling component is further defined as a barrier plate.
[0008] In this invention, further, after translation, a feeding hopper is provided below each of the two sets of falling holes on the counting plate, and a loading port is provided at the bottom of each feeding hopper. Both sides of each feeding hopper are fixedly connected to the support frame by support bars.
[0009] In this utility model, the drive system further includes a rack, gears, a rotating shaft, bearings, and a motor. The racks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the displacement plate, and gears are meshed on the racks. The gears are sleeved in the inner diameter of the bearings through the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is connected to the output end of the motor.
[0010] Furthermore, in this invention, each of the corresponding sides of the support frame is provided with a connecting hole.
[0011] In this invention, the outer diameter of the bearing is fitted onto the connecting hole, and the motor is connected to the support frame via a tripod screw.
[0012] In summary, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows: During use, the capsule box is cone-shaped with a discharge port at the bottom. The counting plate is connected to the drive system via displacement plates on both sides. The displacement plates are fixedly connected to both sides below the counting plate, and each displacement plate has a downward-extending groove. Two barrier plates pass through the grooves and are fixedly connected to the support frame to prevent the counting plate from falling when material enters. The forward and reverse rotation of the motor moves the drop hole to above the feed hopper, where the material falls into the feed hopper for bottling and sealing. This device is convenient to use, accurately counts capsules, and is simple to operate. Attached Figure Description

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] like Figure 1As shown, the soft capsule counting machine of this application consists of a capsule box 1, a discharge port 10, a connecting plate 11, a counting plate 2, a drop hole 20, an anti-drop strip 21, a displacement plate 3, a slide 30, a barrier plate 4, a feeding hopper 5, a loading port 50, a support strip 6, a drive system 7, a rack 70, a gear 71, a rotating shaft 72, a bearing 73, a motor 74, a support frame 8, and a connecting hole 80, etc.
[0022] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the capsule box 1 is conical at the bottom and fixed to the support frame 8 on both sides by connecting plates 11. The bottom of the capsule box 1 is provided with a discharge port 10, and below it is a counting plate 2 closely attached to the discharge port 10. The counting plate 2 has several equally spaced drop holes 20, and two sets are spaced apart. When the two sets of drop holes 20 pass through the discharge port 10, the material in the capsule box 1 enters the drop holes 20 from the discharge port 10. Anti-detachment strips 21 are welded to both sides of the counting plate 2 to limit the translational position of the counting plate 2. Displacement plates 3 are welded to both sides below the counting plate 2. Each displacement plate 3 has a downwardly extending groove 30. A drive system 7 is provided below the displacement plate 3. The two sides of the barrier plate 4 are respectively welded to the support frame 8 through the grooves 30. The barrier plate 4 is set relative to the discharge port 10. The counting plate 2 is located between the capsule box 1 and the barrier plate 4 to prevent it from falling when material enters the drop holes 20 of the counting plate 2.
[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, each of the two sets of drop holes 20 on the counting plate 2 is equipped with a feeding hopper 5 after translation. Each feeding hopper 5 has a loading port 50 at its bottom. Both sides of each feeding hopper 5 are welded to the support frame 8 via support bars 6. The drive system 7 includes a rack 70, gears 71, a rotating shaft 72, bearings 73, and a motor 74. The racks 70 are welded to the bottom of the displacement plate 3, and gears 71 mesh on each rack 70. The gears 71 are fitted into the inner diameter of the bearings 73 via the rotating shaft 72, which is connected to the output end of the motor 74. Each corresponding side of the support frame 8 has a connecting hole 80. The outer diameter of the bearings 73 is fitted into the connecting hole 80, and the motor 74 is connected to the support frame 8 via a tripod screw. When the motor 74 rotates forward and backward, it drives the drop holes 20 in the counting plate 2 to translate to the discharge port 10.
