Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule production technology, and more specifically, to a defoaming device for capsule gelatin liquid. Background Technology

[0002] The capsule glue storage tank is a glue storage device that connects the glue mixing tank and the capsule pressing machine. When the glue is poured directly from the mixing tank into the storage tank, a large number of air bubbles are generated. These bubbles affect the quality of the capsules and increase the defect rate. Therefore, it is necessary to perform defoaming treatment on the glue in the storage tank to remove as many air bubbles as possible. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a defoaming device for capsule liquid.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model discloses a defoaming device for capsule liquid, including a material tank, an inlet pipe provided inside the material tank, one end of the inlet pipe passing through the side wall of the material tank, a screen installed at the end of the inlet pipe inside the material tank, and a defoaming component provided inside the material tank below the lower end of the inlet pipe.

[0006] Furthermore, the defoaming component includes a drive motor and a rotating disk. The drive motor is located outside the material tank and drives the rotating disk. Several defoaming needles are provided on the upper part of the rotating disk.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper part of the defoaming needle is tilted, with the tilt direction towards the center of the rotating disk.

[0008] Furthermore, an installation ring is connected to the outer periphery of the lower end of the feed pipe, and a fixing ring is installed below the installation ring, with the screen installed on the fixing ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting ring has a threaded hole at its lower part, and the fixing ring has a stepped hole inside. A fixing bolt is installed between the stepped hole and the mounting ring.

[0010] Furthermore, a second drive motor is installed at the bottom of the material tank, which drives a rotating shaft located inside the material tank. Two defoamers are installed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft at different heights.

[0011] Furthermore, two defoamers are located on the left and right sides of the rotating shaft.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: through the cooperation of the screen at the outlet end of the feed pipe and the defoaming component below the outlet end of the feed pipe, air bubbles in the adhesive entering the tank from the feed pipe can be effectively removed; the defoamer can defoam the adhesive again, removing as many air bubbles as possible from the adhesive.

[0017] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a defoaming device for capsule adhesive liquid includes a material tank 1, with a support column 4 connected to the bottom of the material tank 1. A feed pipe 2 is installed inside the material tank 1, with one end passing through the side wall of the material tank 1 and the other end positioned close to the bottom surface of the material tank 1. Specifically, the lower end of the feed pipe 2 is 5-10 cm from the bottom surface of the material tank 1. The adhesive liquid enters directly near the bottom of the material tank 1 through the feed pipe 2, reducing the generation of air bubbles in the adhesive liquid.

[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, an installation ring 8 is connected to the outer periphery of the lower end of the feed pipe 2. A fixing ring 10 is installed on the lower part of the installation ring 8 by fixing bolts 12. A screen 13 is installed on the fixing ring 10, and the screen 13 can cover the outlet end of the feed pipe 2. The adhesive liquid introduced by the feed pipe 2 passes through the screen 13, and the screen 13 can destroy the air bubbles in the adhesive liquid, which plays a role in the first step of defoaming treatment.

[0020] The specific connection method between the mounting ring 8 and the fixing ring 10 is as follows: the mounting ring 8 has a threaded hole 9 at its lower part, and the lower end of the threaded hole 9 is connected to the lower end face of the mounting ring 8. The fixing ring 10 has a stepped hole 11 inside, which passes through the upper and lower end faces of the fixing ring 10. The larger diameter hole in the stepped hole 11 is located at the bottom. The upper end of the fixing bolt 12 passes through the stepped hole 11 and is screwed into the threaded hole 9. The head of the fixing bolt 12 is then stuck in the stepped hole 11, thereby completing the fixing between the mounting ring 8 and the fixing ring 10 through the fixing bolt 12.

[0021] A maintenance door 3 is installed on the side wall of the material tank 1 at the position corresponding to the lower end of the feed pipe 2. The screen 13 installed at the outlet end of the feed pipe 2 can be cleaned or replaced by opening the maintenance door 3.

[0022] A defoaming assembly is installed inside the material tank 1, below the lower end of the feed pipe 2. The defoaming assembly includes a drive motor 5 and a rotating disk 6. The drive motor 5 is located outside the material tank 1 and drives the rotating disk 6. Several defoaming needles 7 are mounted on the upper part of the rotating disk 6. The drive motor 5 drives the rotating disk 6 to rotate at a relatively slow speed, which in turn drives the defoaming needles 7 to rotate, thereby breaking up air bubbles in the adhesive. The upper part of the defoaming needles 7 is inclined towards the center of the rotating disk 6, allowing the defoaming needles 7 to cover more areas and thus better eliminate air bubbles.

[0023] A second drive motor 14 is installed at the bottom of the material tank 1. The second drive motor 14 drives a rotating shaft 16 connected to it. The rotating shaft 16 is located inside the material tank 1. Two defoamers 17 are installed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 16. The second drive motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the defoamers 17 to rotate, thereby breaking up the air bubbles in the adhesive. The two defoamers 17 are located at different heights and on the left and right sides of the rotating shaft 16 to cover a larger area and enhance the defoaming ability.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the defoamer 17 includes a mounting frame 18. A partition 19 is positioned at the middle of the mounting frame 18 in the width direction. Several defoaming components 20 are provided on both the upper and lower parts of the partition 19, and the upper and lower defoaming components 20 are staggered to act on the adhesive in more locations. Each defoaming component 20 includes a mounting rod 21 connecting the partition 19 and the inner wall of the mounting frame 18. A mounting block 22 is mounted on the mounting rod 21, and several defoaming plates 23 are connected to the outer periphery of the mounting block 22. When the defoamer 17 rotates, the defoaming plates 23 can break the air bubbles in the adhesive, thereby reducing the number of air bubbles in the adhesive.

[0025] A sealing seat 15 is provided at the connection between the rotating shaft 16 and the material tank 1 to provide a seal. Similarly, a sealing seat 15 is also installed at the connection between the drive shaft of the drive motor 5 and the material tank 1 to provide a seal.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
