Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pill screening equipment technology, and in particular to a pill screening device. Background Technology
[0002] During the manufacturing process of pills, due to inherent errors, the size of the pills may vary. The size of the pills determines the dosage, which significantly impacts the patient's recovery. Therefore, the size of the pills needs to be controlled within a reasonable range. Pills that are too large can cause adverse reactions, while pills that are too small will not achieve the desired therapeutic effect. To achieve this, current technology often uses pill screening equipment to select the appropriate pills.
[0003] Currently, pellet screening equipment typically includes spiral pellet separators and linear pellet screens. Linear pellet screens usually include a multi-stage screening mechanism capable of reciprocating motion. By setting the screen aperture space to decrease from top to bottom and enabling reciprocating motion, pellets of appropriate size can be screened out. However, this existing technology also has some shortcomings. For example, because pellets have a certain degree of viscosity, some standard pellets may adhere and become solid particles during screening, preventing them from entering the lower screening stages and ultimately being transported to the waste bin, resulting in waste.
[0004] Therefore, a pellet screening device that can break down and prevent pellets from sticking together needs to be designed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the deficiencies and shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a pill screening device that solves at least one of the aforementioned technical problems.

The two ends of the crossbar are respectively connected to one of the long frame pieces and are arranged to intersect with the two long frame pieces. A plurality of comb teeth are vertically arranged on the crossbar.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this application are:
[0017] This pellet screening device features a transversely positioned pellet stopper between the feeding end and the first discharge port, near the first discharge port, to block and separate adhered pellets.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a pill screening device 1000 for screening out standard pills. The pill screening device 1000 includes: a linear pill screening device 100 and a pill blocking device 200.
[0040] The linear shot sieving device 100 includes a first screening mechanism 1, a second screening mechanism 2, and a fourth screening mechanism 4. These three mechanisms are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. One end of the first screening mechanism 1 is the feeding end a, and the other end has a first discharge port b1. The linear shot sieving device 100 is a shot sieve capable of reciprocating linear motion in a straight line. This causes the shot to be subjected to a certain amount of throwing and impact, allowing the material particles to be stratified and sieved according to their size, and to move from the feeding end a to the first discharge port b1. Since the first screening mechanism 1, the second screening mechanism 2, and the fourth screening mechanism 4 all perform reciprocating linear motion, standard shot, shot heads larger than the standard shot, and shot particles smaller than the standard shot can be screened out. A shot sieve blocker 200 is positioned between the feeding end a and the first discharge port b1, close to the first discharge port b1, and serves to laterally block and separate adhered shot.
[0041] The pellet sieving device 1000 has a laterally positioned pellet stopper 200 between the feeding end a and the first discharge port b1, near the first discharge port b1, to block and separate the adhered pellets. Since the adhered pellets jump forward as they move towards the first discharge port b1, they collide with the laterally positioned pellet stopper 200, thus being broken into individual pellets. Furthermore, positioning the pellet stopper 200 between the feeding end a and the first discharge port b1, near the first discharge port b1, provides the necessary travel distance for the pellets, preventing them from becoming overly concentrated and clogging the pellet stopper 200, further improving the dispersing effect.
[0042] To achieve the purpose of lateral blocking and separation of the binding pellets, optionally, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the first screening mechanism 1 includes a screen frame 11 and a first screen 12 located at the bottom of the screen frame 11. The screen frame 11 includes two long side frames 111 and two short side frames 112. The long side frames 111 are arranged from the feeding end a to the first discharge port b1, and the short side frames 112 connect the ends of the two long side frames 111. The shot blocker 200 includes a crossbar 210 and comb teeth 220. The two ends of the crossbar 210 are respectively connected to a long side frame 111 and intersect with the two long side frames 111. Multiple comb teeth 220 are vertically arranged on the crossbar 210. In this way, the adhesive shot jumping towards the first discharge port b1 will hit the comb teeth 220 of the shot blocker 200 and be separated and dispersed.
[0043] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 2In this embodiment, the shot sieve blocker 200 is configured at a right angle to the long frame 111. Of course, in other embodiments, the shot sieve blocker 200 may also be configured at other angles to the long frame 111, as long as it can achieve lateral dispersion and separation of the bonded shot. The number of shot sieve blocks 200 is not limited to one; multiple blocks may be spaced apart along the length of the straight shot sieve device 100, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0044] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the distance between the comb teeth 220 is greater than the outer diameter of a standard pellet but less than twice the outer diameter of a standard pellet. This further improves the effect of breaking down and separating the sticky pellets.
[0045] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 2 In this embodiment, the distance between the shot sieve blocker 200 and the first discharge port b1 is equal to 1 / 3 of the length of the long frame 111. Of course, in other embodiments, the distance between the shot sieve blocker 200 and the first discharge port b1 can also be equal to 1 / 4 or 1 / 2 of the length of the long frame 111. As long as the distance between the shot sieve blocker 200 and the first discharge port b1 is greater than or equal to 1 / 4 of the length of the long frame 111 and less than or equal to 1 / 2 of the length of the long frame 111, it is acceptable.

The first screening mechanism 1, the second screening mechanism 2, the third screening mechanism 3, and the fourth screening mechanism 4 are sequentially arranged on the support frame 6 from top to bottom. The reciprocating drive device 8 is located on the side of the support frame 6 near the feeding end a and is connected to the support frame 6, used to drive the support frame 6 to perform reciprocating linear motion relative to the base frame 7. Optionally, the reciprocating drive device 8 includes a drive motor 81 and a reciprocating pump 82 driven by the drive motor 81. The output end of the reciprocating pump 82 is connected to the support frame 6, thus driving the support frame 6 and the first screening mechanism 1, the second screening mechanism 2, the third screening mechanism 3, and the fourth screening mechanism 4 mounted thereon to perform linear reciprocating motion relative to the base frame 7. Specifically, the reciprocating pump 82 is prior art and will not be elaborated upon here. Optionally, the long support rods on both sides of the upper end of the base frame 7 have connecting blocks 71, and the inner side of the connecting blocks 71 has a sliding groove c. The bottom of the fourth screening mechanism 4 is fixedly provided with a sliding rod 61 that slides in conjunction with the sliding groove c. This enables the first screening mechanism 1, the second screening mechanism 2, the third screening mechanism 3, and the fourth screening mechanism 4 to slide stably back and forth relative to the base frame 7 under the traction of the reciprocating drive device 8.
