[0002] Currently, the most common machine for processing pharmaceutical powder into tablets is the rotary tablet press. The rotary tablet press consists of multiple sets of punches evenly distributed on a turntable that move in a circular motion along a certain trajectory, pressing granular materials into tablets through pressure rollers.

[0003] According to a rotary tablet press disclosed in the public notice (Announcement No.: CN 211616748 U), the above application can make the powder slide more smoothly. Secondly, by replacing the bushing on the outer side of the eccentric shaft with a bearing, the stability of the eccentric shaft can be improved, resulting in more stable hardness and better quality of the pressed tablets.

[0004] However, in actual use, the powder tends to clump together when added to the feed hopper, making it difficult to fall. Furthermore, the connection between the wheel axle and the bushing experiences significant wear, resulting in poor product quality. The vibration mechanism alone cannot effectively break up the clumps of powder, thus affecting production efficiency. Therefore, we propose a rotary tablet press. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a rotary tablet press, including a collection cabinet 1, with a cabinet door 12 hinged to the end of the collection cabinet 1, a working box 11 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the collection cabinet 1, a control plate 13 fixedly connected to the side wall of the working box 11, a tablet pressing mechanism 2 arranged inside the working box 11, a support frame 14 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the working box 11, and a stirring mechanism 3 arranged on the support frame 14. The stirring mechanism 3 includes: a stirring cylinder 31, a motor 32, a feed inlet 33, a conveying pipe 34, a main drive shaft 35, a sun gear 36, a planetary gear 37, a gear ring 38, a secondary drive shaft 39, a connecting plate 310, a stirring blade 311, a stirring rod 312, and a protective disc 313.

[0025] In one embodiment of this utility model, the stirring drum 31 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 14, and a motor 32 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the stirring drum 31. A feed inlet 33 is provided on the side wall of the stirring drum 31, and a conveying pipe 34 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the stirring drum 31. A protective disc 313 is rotatably connected to the inner upper surface of the stirring drum 31. The output end of the motor 32 is fixedly connected to a main drive shaft 35. The main drive shaft 35 is movably connected through the center of the protective disc 313. A sun gear 36 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the main drive shaft 35, and planetary gears 37 mesh with the outer surface of the sun gear 36. By providing planetary gears, the auxiliary drive shaft 39 of this stirring mechanism 3 can rotate around the main drive shaft 35. The gear ring 38 revolves around the main drive shaft 35 without affecting its own rotation. The outer surface of the gear ring 38 meshes with the inner surface of the planetary gear 37. The side wall of the gear ring 38 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the protective disc 313. The auxiliary drive shaft 39 is fixedly connected through the axis of the planetary gear 37. The outer surface of the auxiliary drive shaft 39 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 310. The outer surface of the main drive shaft 35 is fixedly connected to the stirring blade 311. The outer surface of the main drive shaft 35 is fixedly connected to the stirring rod 312. By limiting the displacement of the planetary gear 37 through the gear ring 38, the auxiliary drive shaft 39 can rotate inside the stirring drum 31, which can maximize the stirring of the powder in the stirring drum 31 and improve the working efficiency of the equipment.

[0026] In addition, an auxiliary mechanism 4 is provided on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 310. The auxiliary mechanism 4 includes a fixed shaft 41. The fixed shaft 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 310. One end of a spiral spring 42 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed shaft 41. The other end of the spiral spring 42 is fixedly connected to a rotating drum 45. A stirring plate 43 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating drum 45. A silicone strip 44 is fixedly connected to the end of the stirring plate 43 away from the fixed shaft 41. By providing the silicone strip 44, the auxiliary mechanism 4 can scrape the inner wall of the stirring drum 31. To improve the self-cleaning ability of this equipment, the protective disc 313 is designed to be hollow, and the sun gear 36, planet gears 37, and gear ring 38 are located inside the protective disc 313. By setting the protective disc, it is possible to ensure that the powder does not enter the planet gears during normal operation, thereby affecting the normal operation of this equipment. At the same time, there are multiple sets of auxiliary drive shafts 39 and connecting plates 310, and each set of auxiliary drive shafts 39 and connecting plates 310 is arranged in a circumferential array on the bottom surface of the planet gears 37.

[0027] In this embodiment of the utility model, multiple sets of auxiliary mechanisms 4 are provided, and each set of auxiliary mechanisms 4 is distributed in a mirror symmetrical manner at both ends of the connecting plate 310. By providing multiple sets of auxiliary mechanisms 4, the silicone strip 44 can better scrape the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 31. At the same time, with the help of the spiral spring 42, the stirring cylinder 31 can be continuously scraped. At this time, a screen is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the conveying pipe 34, which can better ensure that the powder entering the tableting mechanism 2 has better uniformity, so as to make the tableting effect better. The lower surface of the protective plate 313 is provided with a through hole, and the size of the through hole matches the size of the auxiliary drive shaft 39.

[0028] In this invention, during use, the powder is fed into the mixing drum 31 through the feed inlet 33. Then, the motor 32 is started, driving the main drive shaft 35 to rotate the sun gear 36, the stirring blade 311, and the stirring rod 312. The sun gear 36 forms a planetary transmission with the fixed gear ring 38 through the meshing planet gear 37, causing the auxiliary drive shaft 39 to revolve around the main drive shaft 35 and rotate on its own axis. This drives the connecting plate 310 and the stirring plate 43 of the auxiliary mechanism 4 to agitate the powder in multiple directions under the elastic support of the spiral spring 42. The silicone strip 44 flexibly scrapes the drum wall to prevent clumping. The uniformly mixed material is filtered through the screen in the conveying pipe 34 and then enters the tableting mechanism 2. After tableting, the finished product falls into the collection cabinet 1. Finally, the entire process is controlled by the control board 13.

[0029] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
