[0002] Acetaminophen dihydrocodeine tablets are analgesics composed of two drugs, dihydrocodeine tartrate and acetaminophen. They work synergistically through different mechanisms of action to achieve analgesia. Granulators are one of the commonly used pieces of equipment in the pharmaceutical production and processing process. Their main function is to process drugs into granules so that they can be compressed into tablets later.
[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered that existing granulators mainly consist of a mixing component and a granulation component. The mixing component mixes and stirs the pharmaceutical raw materials, but solid raw materials may clump due to unexpected situations, resulting in poor mixing and stirring effects. Therefore, in view of this, the inventors have studied and improved the existing structure to provide a granulation device for acetaminophen dihydrocodeine tablets, aiming to achieve a more practical purpose.

[0016] 3. Beneficial effects
[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0018] (1) This solution guides the raw materials through the support base, so that they enter the bottom of the mixing tank evenly. The feeding roller is used to increase the feeding speed. Then the mixing roller is used to mix the raw materials. The guide ring ensures the rotational stability of the mixing roller. Compared with the existing technology, the setting of the guiding component can make the raw materials feed evenly. With the stable mixing component, the mixing effect of the raw materials is improved.
[0019] (2) By setting up a crushing mechanism, the baffle limits the feeding direction of the raw material, so that it falls between two crushing rollers. Then, through the cooperation of two toothed rings, the two crushing rollers rotate synchronously in opposite directions, thereby realizing the crushing treatment of solid raw materials. The scraper cleans the raw material residue adhering to the surface of the crushing rollers, reducing waste. Compared with the existing technology, setting up a crushing component can pre-treat the solid raw materials, reduce the problem of solid raw material agglomeration, and further improve the effect of raw material mixing.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Example:
[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 A granulation device for acetaminophen dihydrocodeine tablets includes a granulator 1. The output end of the granulator 1 is fixedly connected to a discharge port 2, and the top of the granulator 1 is fixedly connected to a mixing tank 3. The mixing tank 3 is equipped with a crushing mechanism 5 near the top, and the mixing tank 3 is fixedly connected to a spray pipe 6 and a support base 7 near the top. The support base 7 is fixedly connected to a dual-shaft motor 8 in the center. The output end above the dual-shaft motor 8 is fixedly connected to a set of feeding rollers 9, and the output end below the dual-shaft motor 8 is fixedly connected to a set of stirring rollers 10. The tops of several stirring rollers 10 are fixedly connected to the same guide ring 11.
[0028] The crushing mechanism 5 includes a drive motor 12 and a pair of crushing rollers 13. One end of the crushing roller 13 is fixedly connected to a toothed ring 14, and baffles 15 and scrapers 16 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the crushing roller 13. The crushing mechanism 5 is provided for crushing and pre-treatment of solid raw materials.
[0029] See Figure 1 A discharge valve 4 is fixedly connected at the connection between the granulator 1 and the mixing tank 3. The spray pipe 6 is located above the support base 7, and the input end of the spray pipe 6 passes through the side of the mixing tank 3, and liquid raw materials are transported through the spray pipe 6.
[0030] See Figure 2 The support base 7 is cone-shaped, and the bottom surface of the feeding roller 9 is in contact with the top surface of the support base 7. The crushed solid material slides down the support base 7 and the feeding speed is increased by the feeding roller 9.
[0031] See Figure 3 The guide ring 11 is located on the bottom surface of the support base 7 and is movably connected to the support base 7. When the dual-shaft motor 8 is started, it drives the feeding roller 9 and the stirring roller 10 to rotate synchronously. The stirring roller 10 performs the mixing of the pharmaceutical raw materials. The guide ring 11 ensures the rotational stability of the stirring roller 10.
[0032] See Figure 4 The drive motor 12, baffle 15 and scraper 16 are all fixedly connected to the mixing tank 3. The crushing roller 13 is movably connected to the mixing tank 3. Solid raw materials are fed into the mixing tank 3. The baffle 15 limits the feeding direction of the raw materials so that they fall between the two crushing rollers 13.
[0033] See Figure 4 Two toothed rings 14 are meshed and connected. The output end of the drive motor 12 passes through the mixing tank 3 and is fixedly connected to the adjacent crushing roller 13. When the drive motor 12 is started, it drives the corresponding crushing roller 13 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the two toothed rings 14, the other crushing roller 13 rotates synchronously in the opposite direction, thereby realizing the crushing of solid raw materials.
[0034] See Figure 2 Both the baffle 15 and the scraper 16 are inclined, and the top of the scraper 16 is in contact with the outer surface of the adjacent crushing roller 13. The scraper 16 cleans the raw material residue adhering to the surface of the crushing roller 13, reducing waste.
[0035] In use: Solid raw materials are fed into the mixing tank 3. The baffle 15 limits the feeding direction of the raw materials, causing them to fall between the two crushing rollers 13. The drive motor 12 is started to drive the corresponding crushing roller 13 to rotate. The two toothed rings 14 cooperate with each other to make the other crushing roller 13 rotate synchronously in the opposite direction, thereby realizing the crushing of solid raw materials. The scraper 16 cleans the raw material residue adhering to the surface of the crushing roller 13 to reduce waste. After that, the solid raw materials fall above the support base 7. The dual-shaft motor 8 is started to drive the feeding roller 9 and the stirring roller 10 to rotate synchronously. The crushed solid material slides down the support base 7. The feeding roller 9 increases the feeding speed. At the same time, the spray pipe 6 delivers liquid raw materials. Then, the stirring roller 10 mixes the raw materials. The guide ring 11 ensures the rotational stability of the stirring roller 10. After the raw materials are mixed, they are sent into the granulator 1 through the feeding valve 4 to complete the granulation of the medicine. Then, the medicine granules are discharged from the discharge port 2.
