[0017] Example 1
[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the capsule filling machine proposed in this utility model includes a processing table 1, a telescopic tube 201, an electric turntable 3, a lower capsule seat 4, and a capping mechanism; an electric rotating frame 101 is rotatably connected to the top of the processing table 1, and a filling component 2 is provided at the top of the electric rotating frame 101. The filling component 2 is existing technology and consists of a medicine storage tank installed at the top of the electric rotating frame 101, a pump connected to the output end of the medicine storage tank, and a connecting rigid pipe connected to the pump; the telescopic tube 201 is connected to the output end of the connecting rigid pipe in the filling component 2, and a diversion pipe 202 is installed at the bottom end of the telescopic tube 201. The diversion pipe 202 is adjustablely connected to the top of the electric rotating frame 101 via an electric push rod; the electric turntable 3... Two sets of electric turntables 3 are symmetrically connected to the top of the processing table 1. The lower capsule seat 4 is plugged into the electric turntable 3. Multiple capsule slots 401 are arranged in a circular array on the lower capsule seat 4. The capsule slots 401 correspond to the outlet of the diversion pipe 202. The diameter of the outlet of the diversion pipe 202 is smaller than the diameter of the inlet of the capsule slot 401, so that the powder can be smoothly filled into the capsule A part inside the capsule slot 401. The sealing mechanism is adjustablely installed on the electric rotating frame 101 and is set away from the diversion pipe 202. The upper capsule seat 5 is detachably installed on the sealing mechanism. Multiple capsule holes 501 are evenly arranged on the upper capsule seat 5. The capsule holes 501 correspond to the capsule slots 401.
[0019] Furthermore, the electric rotating frame 101 consists of a column rotatably connected to the processing table 1 and a top seat installed on the top of the column. The column is driven to rotate by a motor installed in the inner cavity of the processing table 1. The sealing mechanism and the filling component 2 are respectively set at both ends of the top seat. Two sets of support rods are symmetrically arranged on the top seat. The bottom end of the support rod is slidably connected to the annular groove at the top edge of the processing table 1 to improve the stability of the top seat.
[0020] Furthermore, the diameter of the electric turntable 3 is smaller than that of the lower capsule seat 4. A positioning post 301 is installed at the top center of the electric turntable 3. The positioning post 301 is a square rod. A slot is opened in the middle of the lower capsule seat 4. The positioning post 301 is slidably connected to the positioning hole. Since the diameter of the electric turntable 3 is smaller than that of the lower capsule seat 4, it is easy to align and insert the positioning hole on the lower capsule seat 4 with the positioning post 301. This allows the lower capsule seat 4 to be placed on the electric turntable 3 and facilitates the quick alignment of the capsule slot 401 with the upper diversion pipe 202, which is convenient for filling the powder and improves the filling efficiency.
[0021] The clamping mechanism includes guide rods 6, mounting bases 602, movable bases 7, and elastic rods 702. Two sets of guide rods 6 are provided, and both sets are mounted on the electric rotating frame 101. The mounting base 602 is slidably sleeved between the two sets of guide rods 6. Multiple sets of through holes 603 are provided on the mounting base 602, corresponding to the capsule holes 501. A first spring 601 is sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rods 6, and the first spring 601 is connected to the bottom end of the mounting base 602 and the bottom end of the guide rods 6. The movable base 7 is driven to move upwards or downwards by an electric push rod mounted on the electric rotating frame 101. Multiple sets of compression rods 701 are provided at the bottom end of the movable base 7, and the compression rods 701 correspond to the through holes 603. Multiple sets of elastic rods 702 are provided, and these elastic rods 702 are evenly installed at the bottom edge of the movable base 7. The overall length of the elastic rods 702 is greater than the length of the compression rods 701.
[0022] Furthermore, the elastic rod 702 consists of a telescopic rod, a third spring sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod, and an abutment seat 703 installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod. The third spring is connected between the bottom of the movable seat 7 and the top of the abutment seat 703.
[0023] Furthermore, the top end of the upper capsule seat 5 abuts against the bottom end of the mounting base 602, and the capsule hole 501 coincides with the through hole 603. A slider 604 is slidably connected in the inner cavity of the mounting base 602. There are two sets of sliders 604. The sliders 604 are L-shaped. The bottom end of the slider 604 is inserted into the limiting groove on the side wall of the upper capsule seat 5. A pull rod 605 is installed at the top end of the slider 604. The pull rod 605 passes through the inner cavity and is slidably connected to the mounting base 602. A second spring 606 is sleeved on the outside of the pull rod 605. One end of the second spring 606 is connected to the slider 604, and the other end is connected to the inner cavity wall of the mounting base 602.
[0024] In this embodiment, multiple sets of capsule A parts are evenly placed in multiple sets of capsule slots 401, and multiple sets of capsule B parts are evenly placed in multiple sets of capsule holes 501. Pulling the lever 605 away from the mounting base 602 compresses the second spring 606, while simultaneously sliding the top of the slider 604 along the inner cavity away from the limiting groove. This brings the top of the upper capsule seat 5 into contact with the bottom of the mounting base 602, aligning the limiting groove on the side wall of the upper capsule seat 5 with the slider 604. Releasing the lever 605 allows the slider 604 to engage with the limiting groove under the restoring force of the second spring 606. This completes the connection between the upper capsule seat 5 and the pressing machine. The quick installation of the structure involves aligning the positioning hole on the lower capsule seat 4 with the positioning post 301 and sliding the lower capsule seat 4 downwards along the positioning post 301 until it is placed on the electric turntable 3. Then, the two sets of lower capsule seats 4 are placed on their respective electric turntables 3. The controller activates the electric drive to move the diversion tube 202 downwards a suitable distance until the output end of the diversion tube 202 is infinitely close to the capsule slot 401. The filling assembly 2 is then activated to transport the powder from the telescopic tube 201 into the diversion tube 202 and fill the corresponding sets of capsule slots 401. A certain amount of powder is filled under the control of the controller. After filling, the electric turntable 3 is activated and rotated to a suitable angle, causing the next batch of capsule slots 401 to rotate below the diversion pipe 202 and continue to be filled. This process is repeated until the capsules A in multiple sets of capsule slots 401 are completely filled. Then, the electric rotating frame 101 is activated by the controller and rotated to a suitable angle, causing the pressing mechanism to rotate above the set of lower capsule seats 4 that have been filled. At this time, the filling assembly 2 and the diversion pipe 202 are filling another set of lower capsule seats 4. The moving seat 7 is driven to move downward by the electric push rod. The abutment seat 703 first abuts against the top of the mounting seat 602, and then continues to move downward, causing the elastic rod 702 to be compressed. The first spring 601 is compressed, which in turn causes the bottom end of the upper capsule seat 5 to abut against the top end of the lower capsule seat 4. It continues to move downward, causing the extrusion rod 701 to be inserted into the through hole 603 and then into the capsule hole 501. It squeezes the capsule B part in the capsule hole 501 toward the capsule groove 401 until the capsule B part is connected with the capsule A part to complete the capsule sealing. The pressing mechanism is then reset, the sealed lower capsule seat 4 is removed, and a new lower capsule seat 4 with capsule A part is placed on the electric turntable 3. At the same time, a new upper capsule seat 5 with capsule B part is installed on the pressing mechanism for the next round of pressing.
[0025] Example 2
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the capsule filling machine proposed in this utility model, compared with Embodiment 1, has multiple sets of electric turntables 3, which are distributed in a ring array along the top of the processing table 1.
[0027] In this embodiment, the electric rotating frame 101 is controlled by the controller to rotate at an appropriate angle each time, so that the diversion pipe 202 rotates above a set of electric turntables 3 to fill the lower capsule seats 4 on the electric turntables 3 with medicine powder. The pressing mechanism follows the rotation of the electric rotating frame 101 until it rotates above a set of lower capsule seats 4 that have been filled and presses them. The operation is highly continuous and the filling efficiency is improved.
[0028] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
