[0002] Empty capsules are ideal drug carriers, typically made from gelatin, plant cellulose, or other pharmaceutical excipients, and play a vital role in the pharmaceutical field. The production and processing of empty capsules generally employs mold forming.
[0003] Traditional hollow capsule demolding operations often rely on manual labor or complex equipment structures. Demolding is not only inefficient, but manual demolding also negatively impacts hygiene, hindering efficient hollow capsule production. Furthermore, traditional hollow capsules exhibit variations in size during molding, affecting product quality stability and hindering processing. Therefore, this invention proposes a hollow capsule demolding and cutting device. Utility Model Content

An air pipe is fixedly connected to the top surface of the mounting plate, and the air pipe communicates with the capsule mold rods. A movable sealing component is provided at the bottom end of the inner cavity of each capsule mold rod. An annular plate is fixedly connected near the top end of each capsule mold rod, and a plurality of air outlets are uniformly distributed within the annular plate, communicating with the inner cavity of the capsule mold rods. An adjustable cutting component is provided on the lower side of the mounting plate.
[0006] In some embodiments, the movable closure assembly includes a horizontal plate, a horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod near the bottom end, a vertical rod is movably connected to the center of the side wall of the horizontal plate, a top plate is fixedly connected to the top end of the vertical rod, a spring is sleeved on the vertical rod, the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the top plate and the horizontal plate respectively, and a baffle is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical rod.
[0007] In some embodiments, the baffle is circular, and the diameter of the baffle is the same as the diameter of the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod.
[0008] In some embodiments, the adjustable cutting assembly includes a fixed frame. A fixed frame is provided on the lower side of the mounting plate. Two first electric push rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed frame. The first electric push rods are fixedly connected to the mounting plate. Two movable plates are symmetrically arranged on the lower side of the fixed frame. Several arc-shaped grooves matching the capsule mold rod are opened on one side of the two movable plates facing each other. Cutting blades are fixedly connected in each arc-shaped groove. Two movable rods are symmetrically and movably connected between the two movable plates. Side plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the movable rods. The side plates are fixedly connected to the fixed frame. The left sides of the two movable plates are inclined and movably connected to the same connecting plate.

[0012] The above scheme utilizes an external air pump to blow air into the air pipe, which then enters the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod. The airflow pushes a baffle, causing the hollow capsule to be ejected from the mold rod, achieving efficient demolding of the hollow capsule with good results. A first electric push rod drives a fixed frame, which in turn moves a movable plate to a designated height on the side wall of the capsule mold rod, facilitating the cutting of hollow capsules of different sizes. Furthermore, activating a second electric push rod moves a connecting plate, whose slider moves within a groove on the movable plate. This causes both movable plates to move towards one side of the capsule mold rod, allowing a cutting blade within the arc-shaped groove to cut the hollow capsule on the outer surface of the mold rod, improving the processing quality of the hollow capsule.

[0027] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this application embodiment provides a hollow capsule demolding and cutting device, including a mounting plate 1. A plurality of hollow capsule mold rods 2 are evenly distributed and fixedly connected on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1. An air pipe 3 is fixedly connected on the top surface of the mounting plate 1, and the air pipe 3 is connected to the capsule mold rods 2.
[0029] In the technical solution of this embodiment, air is blown into the air pipe 3 by an external air pump. The airflow enters the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod 2. The airflow pushes the baffle 12, so that the hollow capsule is pushed out of the capsule mold rod 2 under the action of the airflow, realizing the efficient demolding operation of the hollow capsule and the good use effect.
[0030] A movable sealing component 4 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod 2. The movable sealing component 4 includes a horizontal plate 8. The horizontal plate 8 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod 2 near the bottom. A vertical rod 9 is movably connected to the center of the side wall of the horizontal plate 8. A top plate 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical rod 9. A spring 11 is sleeved on the vertical rod 9. The two ends of the spring 11 are fixedly connected to the top plate 10 and the horizontal plate 8 respectively. A baffle 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical rod 9.
[0031] In the technical solution of this embodiment, under the action of the spring 11, the baffle 12 can close the bottom end of the capsule mold rod 2, reducing the blockage and material waste caused by the hollow capsule material entering the capsule mold rod 2, and also facilitating the pushing of the hollow capsule and the demolding operation.
[0032] Furthermore, the baffle 12 is circular, and the diameter of the baffle 12 is the same as the inner diameter of the capsule mold rod 2, which can seal the bottom of the capsule mold rod 2, prevent hollow capsule material from entering, and facilitate use;
[0033] A ring plate 5 is fixedly connected to the capsule mold rod 2 near the top. Several air outlets 6 are evenly distributed in the ring plate 5. The air outlets 6 communicate with the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod 2. The inner sidewall of the ring plate 5 is inclined and the air outlets 6 face the capsule mold rod 2.
[0034] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the airflow is blown out through the air outlet 6, which can blow the hollow capsule material remaining on the capsule mold rod 2 off the capsule mold rod 2, making it convenient for the capsule mold rod 2 to be reused;
[0035] An adjustable cutting assembly 7 is provided on the lower side of the mounting plate 1. The adjustable cutting assembly 7 includes a fixed frame 13. The fixed frame 13 is provided on the lower side of the mounting plate 1. Two first electric push rods 14 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed frame 13. The first electric push rods 14 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1. Two movable plates 15 are symmetrically arranged on the lower side of the fixed frame 13. Several arc-shaped grooves 16 matching the capsule mold rod 2 are opened on one side of the two movable plates 15 facing each other. Cutting blades 17 are fixedly connected in each arc-shaped groove 16. Two movable rods 18 are symmetrically movable between the two movable plates 15. Side plates 19 are fixedly connected to both ends of the movable rods 18. The side plates 19 are fixedly connected to the fixed frame 13. The left side of the two movable plates 15 is inclined and movably connected to the same connecting plate 20. A second electric push rod 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting plate 20. A flat plate 22 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second electric push rod 21. The flat plate 22 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1.
[0036] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the first electric push rod 14 pushes the fixed frame 13 to move, and the fixed frame 13 drives the movable plate 15 to move, so that the movable plate 15 moves to a specified height on the side wall of the capsule mold rod 2, which facilitates the cutting operation of hollow capsules of different specifications. Furthermore, by activating the second electric push rod 21, the second electric push rod 21 drives the connecting plate 20 to move, and the slider 24 on the connecting plate 20 moves in the groove 23 on the movable plate 15, so that the two movable plates 15 move towards one side of the capsule mold rod 2, so that the cutting blade 17 in the arc groove 16 cuts the hollow capsules on the outer surface of the capsule mold rod 2, thereby improving the processing quality of the hollow capsules.
[0037] Furthermore, each of the two movable plates 15 has a groove 23 on the side near the connecting plate 20, and a slider 24 is fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting plate 20. The slider 24 is movably connected to the groove 23, which allows for stable movement between the connecting plate 20 and the movable plate 15, making it convenient for adjustment and use.
[0038] A fixing plate 25 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 1. The fixing plate 25 has fixing holes 26, which facilitates the fixing and installation of the mounting plate 1 with the production line.
[0039] Working Principle: When using this device, firstly, align the fixing plate 25 with the designated position on the empty capsule production line. Secure the device to the production line using external fasteners through the fixing holes 26. Connect the device to external control equipment and the air pipe 3 to an external air pump. Then, according to the specifications of the empty capsules being produced, activate the first electric push rod 14. The first electric push rod 14 pushes the fixing frame 13 to move, which in turn moves the movable plate 15 to the designated height on the side wall of the capsule mold rod 2. This completes the pre-use adjustment. During empty capsule production, empty capsules are formed on the outer surface of the capsule mold rod 2. After the empty capsules are formed, activate the second electric push rod 21. The second electric push rod 21 moves the connecting plate 20, and the sliding plate on the connecting plate 20... Block 24 moves within the groove 23 on the movable plate 15, causing the two movable plates 15 to move towards the capsule mold rod 2. This allows the cutting blade 17 in the arc groove 16 to cut the hollow capsule on the outer surface of the capsule mold rod 2. Air is blown into the air pipe 3 by an external air pump, and the airflow enters the inner cavity of the capsule mold rod 2. The airflow pushes the baffle 12, causing the hollow capsule to be pushed out of the capsule mold rod 2 under the action of the airflow, achieving efficient demolding of the hollow capsule. Then, as the hollow capsule production line runs, when the mounting plate 1 moves to the designated position, the second electric push rod 21 moves in the opposite direction, causing the two movable plates 15 to move away from each other. At this time, the airflow is blown out through the air outlet 6, which can blow off the hollow capsule material remaining on the capsule mold rod 2, making it easier for the capsule mold rod 2 to be reused.
