Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule processing, and in particular to a servo cutting device for capsule residue. Background Technology

[0002] Medications encapsulated are generally powders or granules that irritate the esophagus and stomach lining, or those with an unpleasant taste, high volatility, easy breakdown by saliva in the mouth, or easy inhalation into the trachea. Encapsulating these medications protects their efficacy from degradation and also safeguards the digestive and respiratory systems. Removing the capsule shell could lead to drug loss, waste, and reduced effectiveness. Additionally, some medications need to dissolve and be absorbed in the intestines; capsules protect them from stomach acid.

[0003] Capsules typically consist of two parts: a cap and a body. To prevent leakage of the powder inside the capsule during production, it is necessary to ensure that the caps of the capsules are of consistent length. Therefore, any excess part of the capsule cap must be cut off during processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a servo cutting device for capsule waste material, the main technical problem to be solved is: to provide a device that can cut the excess part of the capsule cap.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the servo motor drives the gear to rotate during use, which in turn controls the rack to move left and right. When the rack moves left and right, it carries the mounting plate with it, so that the cutting blade installed in the mounting plate can cut the capsule cap and remove the excess part of the capsule cap.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] The fixing plate has multiple through holes inside, and the positions of the multiple through holes correspond to the positions of the multiple mounting holes.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the capsule cap is fed into the through hole for limiting during use. The cutting blade inside the mounting hole moves left and right to cut the capsule cap inside the corresponding through hole.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The outer surface of the cutting blade is provided with protective rubber, which is located inside the mounting hole.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective rubber is located on both sides of the cutting blade, which can protect the cutting blade and facilitate the installation of the cutting blade inside the mounting hole.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The mounting plate has multiple threaded holes on its front side, and each threaded hole is connected to the interior of a plurality of mounting holes.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to fix the cutting blade with screws.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The threaded hole is internally threaded with a fixing screw, one end of which is in contact with the protective rubber.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating fixing screw can push the protective rubber inward, thereby clamping and fixing the cutting blade inside the mounting hole.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] There are two tracks, which are located on the left and right sides of the mounting frame, respectively, and each track is movably connected to a movable block.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving blocks on both tracks are connected to connecting blocks, and the two connecting blocks make the mounting plate more stable when moving left and right.

[0022] By employing the above technical solution, the capsule residue servo cutting device of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. Compared with the prior art, this capsule residue servo cutting device uses a servo motor to drive the gear to rotate, thereby controlling the rack to move left and right. When the rack moves left and right, it will carry the mounting plate to move left and right, so that the cutting blade installed in the mounting plate can cut the capsule cap and remove the excess part of the capsule cap.

[0024] 2. Compared with the prior art, this capsule residue servo cutting device can push the protective rubber inward by rotating the fixing screw. The protective rubber is located on both sides of the cutting blade and can protect the cutting blade, thereby clamping and fixing the cutting blade inside the mounting hole.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-6This utility model provides a servo cutting device for capsule residue: It includes a working platform 1, a fixed plate 2 fixedly connected to the surface of the working platform 1, a mounting frame 4 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate 2, a servo motor 5 fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame 4, a gear 6 fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 5, the servo motor 5 drives the gear 6 to rotate, a track 7 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate 2, a movable block 8 movably connected to the track 7, the movable block 8 being able to move left and right on the track 7, a connecting block 9 fixedly connected to the top of the movable block 8, and a mounting plate 10 fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting block 9. When the mounting plate 10 moves left and right, the movable block 8 will move on the track 7. A rack 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 10. The rack 11 meshes with the side of the gear 6. When the gear 6 rotates, it drives the rack 11 to move left and right, which in turn drives the mounting plate 10 to move left and right. The surface of the mounting plate 10 has multiple mounting holes 12. A cutting blade 14 is installed inside the mounting hole 12. In use, the servo motor 5 drives the gear 6 to rotate, which in turn controls the rack 11 to move left and right. When the rack 11 moves left and right, it carries the mounting plate 10 to move left and right, so that the cutting blade 14 installed in the mounting plate 10 can cut the capsule cap and remove the excess part of the capsule cap.

[0034] The fixed plate 2 has multiple through holes 3 inside. The positions of the multiple through holes 3 correspond to the positions of multiple mounting holes 12. When in use, the capsule cap is fed into the through hole 3 for limiting. The cutting blade 14 inside the mounting hole 12 moves left and right to cut the capsule cap inside the corresponding through hole 3.

[0035] The outer surface of the cutting blade 14 is provided with protective rubber 13, which is located inside the mounting hole 12. The protective rubber 13 is located on both the front and back of the cutting blade 14, which can protect the cutting blade 14 and facilitate the installation of the cutting blade 14 inside the mounting hole 12. The front of the mounting plate 10 has multiple threaded holes 15, which are connected to the interior of the mounting holes 12 respectively, so as to facilitate the fixing screws 16 to fix the cutting blade 14. The internal threads of the threaded holes 15 are connected to the fixing screws 16. One end of the fixing screws 16 is in contact with the protective rubber 13. Rotating the fixing screws 16 can push the protective rubber 13 inward, thereby clamping and fixing the cutting blade 14 inside the mounting hole 12.

[0036] There are two tracks 7, which are located on the left and right sides of the mounting frame 4 respectively. Each track 7 is movably connected to a moving block 8, and each moving block 8 on the track 7 is connected to a connecting block 9. The two connecting blocks 9 make the mounting plate 10 more stable when it moves left and right.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, the servo motor 5 drives the gear 6 to rotate, which in turn controls the rack 11 to move left and right. When the rack 11 moves left and right, it will also move the mounting plate 10 left and right, so that the cutting blade 14 installed in the mounting plate 10 can cut the capsule cap and remove the excess part of the capsule cap.
