[0029] The infeed mounting base 201 and the rear feed mounting base 202 are fixedly mounted on the top of the workbench 101; two first guide shafts 203 are fixedly mounted between the infeed mounting base 201 and the rear feed mounting base 202, and the first guide shafts 203 are arranged along the front-back direction; two sliding seats 205 are fixedly mounted below the lower mold mounting base 204, and the left and right sides of the sliding seats 205 are slidably connected to the first guide shafts 203 through first linear bearings 206;
[0030] The ball screw mechanism 210 includes a screw 211 and a screw nut 212. The front and rear ends of the screw 211 are rotatably connected to the feed mounting seat 201 and the rear feed mounting seat 202 respectively through bearings. The screw nut 212 is fixedly installed in the middle of the sliding seat 205 on the rear side of the lower die mounting seat 204.
[0031] When the lead screw 211 rotates, the lead screw nut 212 installed on the lead screw 211 will drive the lower die mounting base 204 to move back and forth along the first guide shaft 203, thereby driving the lower die mounting base 204 to move back and forth along the first guide shaft 203.
[0032] The feeding power unit 220 includes a feeding motor 221 and a synchronous belt drive mechanism 222. The feeding motor 221 is fixedly mounted on the front end of the motor mounting plate 223, which is fixedly mounted on the rear side of the rear feeding mounting base 202. The feeding motor 221 is connected to the lead screw 211 of the ball screw mechanism 210 through the synchronous belt drive mechanism 222, thereby driving it to rotate. The feeding motor 221 is a stepper motor, providing precise and stable transmission.
[0033] Specifically, the synchronous belt drive mechanism 222 includes a synchronous belt 224, a driving synchronous pulley 225, and a driven synchronous pulley 226.
[0034] The output shaft of the feed motor 221 is fixed with a drive synchronous pulley 225. The rear end of the lead screw 211 passes through the feed mounting base 202 and is fixedly mounted with a driven synchronous pulley 226. The drive synchronous pulley 225 is driven to rotate by the driven synchronous pulley 226 through the synchronous belt 224.
[0035] The tableting device 4 includes an upper mounting plate 401. The four bottom corners of the upper mounting plate 401 are fixedly mounted on the top of the workbench 101 by columns 402. The upper mounting plate 401 is located above the feeding device 2. The top center of the upper mounting plate 401 is vertically fixedly mounted on the tableting cylinder 402. The output shaft of the tableting cylinder 402 passes vertically through the upper mounting plate 401 and is fixedly connected to the top center of the upper mold mounting base 403.
[0036] Meanwhile, in order to standardize the lifting path of the upper mold mounting base 403, a second guide shaft 404 is also vertically and fixedly installed on the top of the upper mold mounting base 403.

[0037] An upper mold 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom center of the upper mold mounting base 403. The bottom of the upper mold 5 is matched with the lower mold cavity 301. In use, the upper mold 5 descends into the lower mold cavity 301, thereby pressing the powder in the mold cavity 301 into a sheet.
[0038] When using this utility model, the operator puts the powder to be tableted into the lower mold cavity 301 of the lower mold, and then the feeding power device 220 of the feeding device 2 is activated, which drives the lower mold 3 to move backward to directly below the upper mold 5 through the ball screw mechanism 210; the tableting cylinder 402 of the tableting device 4 is activated, which drives the upper mold 5 to move downward to press the powder into tablets.
[0039] Then the feeding power unit 220 of the feeding device 2 drives the lower die 3 to move forward, at which time the operator takes out the sheet from the lower die 3.
[0040] Meanwhile, in this scheme, in order to prevent excessive pressure on the first guide shaft 203 by the tableting device 4 during tableting, the feeding device 2 also includes a pressure plate 230. There are two pressure plates 230, and the two pressure plates 230 are respectively located on the outside of the two first guide shafts 203. The outer side of the sliding seat 205 is provided with a sliding groove 231. The sliding seat 205 is slidably connected to the pressure plate 230 through the sliding groove 231. When the lower die 3 of the tableting device 4 falls, the pressure received by the lower die 3 is shared by the first guide shaft 203 and the pressure plate 230, reducing the impact on the first guide shaft 203 and preventing its deformation.
