Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of health food production technology, specifically to a material storage device for a capsule filling machine used in health food production. Background Technology

[0002] Health foods are foods that claim to have specific health benefits or are intended to supplement vitamins and minerals. They are suitable for specific groups of people, regulate bodily functions, are not intended to treat diseases, and do not cause any acute, subacute, or chronic harm to the human body. Health foods are special foods, not medicines, and cannot replace medication for treating diseases. In the production process of health foods, capsule filling machines are often used to fill powdered or granular medications into capsule shells for packaging.

[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number "CN 214113565 U" discloses a "storage device for a capsule filling machine". This device uses multiple air outlet pipes with numerous air outlet holes inside the storage box to blow hot air out through the air outlet holes, thereby drying the capsules in the storage box and preventing them from getting damp and affecting their medicinal properties. However, in actual use, because the air outlet pipes are directly inserted into the capsules buried in the storage box, the accumulated capsule material inside the box completely covers and blocks the air outlet holes. This not only makes it difficult for hot air to circulate and results in poor drying, but also causes the capsules in the air outlet holes to melt due to the concentrated effect of hot air over a long period of time, thus greatly affecting the storage effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a storage device for a capsule filling machine used in health food production. By installing a rotatable mesh cylinder inside the storage tank, and through the cooperation of a cylinder cover, limiting components, and an arc-shaped toothed ring, the arc-shaped toothed ring can be controlled to rotate the cylinder cover along the mesh cylinder. This allows the cylinder cover to rotate to open or close the opening on the mesh cylinder. Furthermore, by evenly distributing multiple hot air pipes above the storage tank, along with an air outlet pipe and hot air components, hot air can enter the storage tank and be evenly blown onto the mesh cylinder. The hot air then enters the mesh cylinder through the holes and interacts with the capsules. Simultaneously, the mesh cylinder causes the capsules inside to continuously tumble, ensuring sufficient contact between the hot air and the capsules. This effectively dries the capsules inside the storage tank, providing excellent ventilation and moisture protection, and preventing damage to the capsule material, thus greatly ensuring storage effectiveness and overcoming the aforementioned shortcomings in the technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a material storage device for a capsule filling machine used in health food production, comprising:

[0006] A fixed frame is provided with a storage tank at the top of the fixed frame.

[0024] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-4 The storage device of a capsule filling machine for health food production shown includes:

[0025] A fixed frame 8 is provided with a storage tank 1 at the top of the fixed frame 8. A feed pipe 2 is provided in the middle of the top side of the storage tank 1, and a discharge pipe 3 is provided in the middle of the bottom side of the storage tank 1. Both the feed pipe 2 and the discharge pipe 3 are connected to a cap 4 by thread.

[0026] The bottom of the mounting bracket 8 is provided with a mounting base, and the side wall of the mounting base is provided with mounting holes.

[0027] Multiple hot air pipes 5 are evenly distributed on the top side of the storage tank 1. Multiple air outlet pipes 9 are provided on the bottom side of the hot air pipes 5. The bottom end of the air outlet pipes 9 extends into the storage tank 1. A hot air assembly is provided at one end of the hot air pipes 5. A temperature sensor 10 is provided at one end inside the storage tank 1.

[0028] The hot air assembly includes a hot air blower 7 located on one side of the fixed frame 8. The air outlet of the hot air blower 7 is connected to multiple hot air pipes 5 by connecting pipes 6. Hot air is generated by the hot air blower 7 and can enter each hot air pipe 5 through the connecting pipes 6. Then, it can enter the storage tank 1 through multiple sets of air outlet pipes 9, thereby drying the capsule material in the storage tank 1 to prevent the material from getting damp. The temperature sensor 10 can monitor the temperature inside the storage tank 1 in real time to prevent the capsules from being damaged by excessive temperature.

[0029] The storage tank 1 is rotatably connected to a mesh cylinder 12 via a rotating shaft. The mesh cylinder 12 has an opening 13 on one side, and a cylinder cover 14 is provided on the opening 13. A moving mechanism is provided between the cylinder cover 14 and the mesh cylinder 12. A first motor 11 is provided at one end of the fixed frame 8, and the output end of the first motor 11 is connected to the rotating shaft of the mesh cylinder 12.

[0030] The moving mechanism includes a second motor 19 fixedly connected to one end of the mesh cylinder 12 via a bracket. An arc-shaped toothed ring 17 is provided at one end of the cylinder cover 14 near the second motor 19, and a limiting component is provided between the cylinder cover 14 and the mesh cylinder 12. One end of the mesh cylinder 12 is rotatably connected to a driven gear 18 that meshes with the arc-shaped toothed ring 17 via a rotating shaft. The output end of the second motor 19 is connected to a driving gear 20 that meshes with the driven gear 18.

[0031] The limiting assembly includes two T-shaped sliders 16 symmetrically arranged at one end of the inner side of the cover 14, and the outer side of the mesh cylinder 12 is provided with a groove 15 that matches the T-shaped sliders 16.

[0032] By starting the second motor 19, the second motor 19 drives the driven gear 18 to rotate through the driving gear 20. Then the driven gear 18 can drive the meshing arc-shaped toothed ring 17 to rotate, so that the arc-shaped toothed ring 17 drives the cylinder cover 14 to rotate along the mesh cylinder 12. Then the cylinder cover 14 can drive the T-shaped slider 16 to slide along the slide groove 15, so that the cylinder cover 14 can rotate to open or close the opening 13.

[0033] In use, the first motor 11 can drive the mesh cylinder 12 to rotate, so that the mesh cylinder 12 moves the opening 13 to the bottom of the feed pipe 2. Then, the cylinder cover 14 can be controlled to rotate and open the opening 13. After that, the feed pipe 2 can be opened to introduce the capsules produced by the capsule filling machine into the storage tank 1, so that the capsules enter the mesh cylinder 12 through the opening 13. Then, the cylinder cover 14 can be controlled to rotate and close the opening 13, and the feed pipe 2 can be closed with the sealing cap 4, so that the capsules can be stored.

[0034] Furthermore, during the storage process, hot air can be generated by the hot air assembly. The hot air enters each hot air pipe 5 through the connecting pipe 6, and then enters the storage tank 1 through multiple sets of air outlet pipes 9. This allows the hot air to be blown towards the mesh cylinder 12 below. Since the mesh cylinder 12 is covered with holes, the hot air can enter through the holes and interact with the capsules. The first motor 11 can drive the mesh cylinder 12 to rotate, causing the capsules inside to tumble continuously. This allows the hot air to fully contact the capsules, effectively drying the capsules in the storage tank 1. This not only provides good ventilation and moisture protection, but also prevents damage to the capsule material, greatly ensuring the storage effect.

[0035] The second motor 19 is provided with a cover. Therefore, the second motor 19 can be protected by the cover.

[0036] During feeding, the screen cylinder 12 can be controlled to rotate the opening 13 to the top of the discharge pipe 3, and then the opening 13 and the discharge pipe 3 can be opened in sequence to allow the capsule to be discharged quickly.

[0037] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
