Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule production technology, specifically to a drying device for empty capsule production. Background Technology

[0002] Empty capsules consist of a cap and a body, made from pharmaceutical-grade gelatin and excipients. They are primarily used to encapsulate solid and liquid medications, such as homemade powders, health supplements, and pharmaceuticals. They solve the problem of unpleasant taste and swallowing difficulties, truly making good medicine palatable. Empty capsules are becoming increasingly popular. Firstly, their elongated shape makes them easy to swallow, making them the most popular dosage form among consumers. Secondly, capsules effectively mask the unpleasant taste and odor of their contents.

[0003] Because capsules often have a small amount of liquid medicine and gelatin on their surface during the production process, the capsule surface is sticky, causing the capsules to stick together and be difficult to separate. The conventional method is to stack the capsules together and dry them with hot air. This method can only ensure that the outer capsules are dried, while the inner capsules are still stuck together, making subsequent packaging difficult. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying apparatus for the production of empty capsules, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

A U-shaped connecting block is fixedly connected to one end of the output shaft of the adjustable stroke cylinder, and a fixed seat is rotatably connected to the surface of the U-shaped connecting block, with the upper surface of the fixed seat fixedly connected to the lower surface of the outer cylinder.

[0006] Preferably, an inlet / outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner cylinder, and the outlet end of the inlet / outlet pipe passes through the right side of the inner cylinder and extends to the right side wall of the inner cylinder.

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.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a drying device for hollow capsule production, including an outer cylinder 1 and an inner cylinder 2. The surface of the outer cylinder 1 is provided with a layer of heat-insulating cotton. A bearing 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer cylinder 1, and the surface of the inner cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the inner ring surface of the bearing 3. A low-speed stirring motor 4 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer cylinder 1, and one end of the output shaft of the low-speed stirring motor 4 passes through the left side of the outer cylinder 1 and is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner cylinder 2. A heating wire and a temperature sensor are respectively provided on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 1, and the heating wire, temperature sensor and low-speed stirring motor 4 are all coupled to an external control circuit.

[0021] The inner cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inlet and outlet pipe 12, and the outlet end of the inlet and outlet pipe 12 passes through the right side of the inner cylinder 2 and extends to the right side wall of the inner cylinder 2.

[0022] The inner wall of the inner cylinder 2 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped stirring block 13. There are four arc-shaped stirring blocks 13, and the four arc-shaped stirring blocks 13 are equidistantly arranged on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 2. Both the inner cylinder 2 and the arc-shaped stirring blocks 13 are made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy has good thermal conductivity, which can effectively prevent heat loss.

[0023] By setting bearing 3 and low-speed stirring motor 4, the rotation of low-speed stirring motor 4 can drive the inner cylinder 2 to rotate, and the heating wire on the inner wall of outer cylinder 1 conducts heat to inner cylinder 2, thereby drying the surface of hollow capsules. At the same time, arc-shaped stirring block 12 can turn hollow capsules over to prevent them from sticking together, thus not affecting subsequent packaging.

[0024] A balance shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the outer cylinder 1, and a triangular bracket 6 is fitted on the surface of the balance shaft 5. There are two balance shafts 5 and two triangular brackets 6. The two balance shafts 5 and the two triangular brackets 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outer cylinder 1 with the center line of the side of the outer cylinder 1 as the axis of symmetry. A base 7 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the triangular bracket 6.

[0025] A support base 8 is fixedly connected to the left end of the upper surface of the base 7. An adjustable stroke cylinder 9 is rotatably connected to the surface of the support base 8. A U-shaped connecting block 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the output shaft of the adjustable stroke cylinder 9. A fixed seat 11 is rotatably connected to the surface of the U-shaped connecting block 10. The upper surface of the fixed seat 11 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the outer cylinder 1. By setting the adjustable stroke cylinder 9, the support base 8, the U-shaped connecting block 10 and the fixed seat 11, it is easy to extend and retract the output shaft of the adjustable stroke cylinder 9, drive the outer cylinder 1 to rotate, thereby changing the pipe opening angle of the inlet and outlet pipe 12, which is convenient for putting in and pouring out hollow capsules.

[0026] Working principle: When using this hollow capsule production drying device, first, the adjustable stroke cylinder 9 is contracted, causing the angle of the inlet / outlet pipe 12 to be tilted upwards. Then, hollow capsules are poured in from the inlet / outlet pipe 12. Next, the adjustable stroke cylinder 9 is adjusted so that the inner cylinder 2 is in a horizontal state. The low-speed stirring motor 4 and the heating wire are connected, so that the heating wire preheats the inner cylinder 2. The rotation of the inner cylinder 2 drives the rotation of the arc-shaped stirring block 13, thereby fully preheating the hollow capsules and achieving the purpose of drying. Then, the output shaft of the adjustable stroke cylinder 9 is extended, causing the inlet / outlet pipe 12 to tilt downwards, and the dried hollow capsules are poured out. By using this hollow capsule production drying device, the hollow capsules can be effectively prevented from sticking together, thus not affecting the subsequent packaging.
