Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging material equipment, and in particular to a counting board and a counting device containing the same. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, counting plates are mainly used in the pharmaceutical, food, and confectionery industries to quantitatively dispense medicines or products of various shapes. If existing technologies only use a single combination with multiple rows of holes, the number of holes in a single row is too large to meet the total number of dispensing particles, resulting in an excessively long path for the material from insertion to dispensing (due to the large number and dense arrangement of holes, material in the later rows is easily blocked by the front rows). When the counting plate rotates to the baffle area, some material is blocked by the baffle due to the long path and failure to fall in time, remaining in the holes. This causes the actual number of dispensing particles to be less than the preset value, resulting in a high particle shortage rate. Furthermore, using only a single combination on the counting plate cannot achieve different dispensing volumes; disassembly and replacement are required to achieve different dispensing volumes, leading to poor compatibility.

[0003] Therefore, how to set the hole arrangement to avoid missing particles during the operation of the counting plate and to meet the needs of different filling volumes on the same counting plate has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of existing counting plates having a high missing particle rate and being unable to be compatible with different filling volume requirements, and to provide a counting plate and a counting device including the plate.

[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:

[0006] A counting board has several embedded functional areas. Each embedded functional area includes several rows of holes arranged in a fan shape with the center of the counting board as the center. Each embedded functional area has a first combination and a second combination arranged sequentially in a direction radiating outward from the center of the counting board. Both the first combination and the second combination have two or more rows of holes. The distance between the first combination and the second combination is defined as a, and the hole spacing between two adjacent rows of holes in the first combination or the second combination is defined as b, where a > 2b.

[0007] The holes in each embedding functional area are arranged in a fan shape with the center of the counting plate as the center. This layout makes the material more evenly stressed during embedding and dropping, and the fan-shaped distribution of dropping points is more dispersed, avoiding mutual interference between materials during dropping. By setting up a first combination and a second combination, and setting more than two rows of holes in each combination, fewer holes are needed per row for the same number of dropping particles, thus ensuring a shorter path for the material from embedding to dropping. The material can fall completely before being blocked by the baffle, avoiding the problem of excessive missing particle rate. By setting up a first combination and a second combination, different filling requirements can be accommodated on the same counting plate, and the distance between the first combination and the second combination is more than twice the hole spacing between two adjacent rows of holes in the two combinations. That is, a large physical interval is set between the first combination and the second combination, which can ensure that the material passing through the area of ​​the first combination and the second combination falls into different positions without interfering with each other.

[0008] Preferably, the number of holes in the first combination is the same as the number of holes in the second combination, and the number of rows of holes in the first combination is at least one more row than the number of rows of holes in the second combination.

[0009] The number of holes in the first combination is equal to the number of holes in the second combination, which can ensure that the amount of material falling into each combination is the same when the two combinations are feeding at the same time. This is to facilitate the design and calculation of the same number of granulation steps for the same batch of medicine bottles. The number of rows of holes in the first combination is set to be at least one more row than that in the second combination, in order to adapt to the characteristic that the holes in the embedded functional area are arranged in a fan shape.

[0010] Preferably, the angle between the inner wall of the hole and the plane of the counting plate is defined as the first angle, and the value of the first angle is between 70° and 80°. The extension line of the inner wall of each hole points to the central axis of the counting plate and intersects with the central axis.

[0011] When the holes rotate to the material collection point below, the angle between the inner wall of the hole and the plane of the counting plate is set at 70-80 degrees. Under the combined effect of gravity and the rotational inertia of the counting plate, the material can be smoothly embedded, making the embedding process smoother. The extended lines of the inner walls of each hole all point to and intersect with the axis of the mounting hole. This uniform tilt angle design ensures that all holes maintain a consistent spatial posture during rotation, preventing particle jamming or leakage due to deviations in the tilt direction of individual holes, thus guaranteeing the overall stability of the counting plate.

[0012] Preferably, the angle between the plane where the counting board is located and the ground is defined as the second angle, and the sum of the first angle and the second angle is in the range of 89° to 91°.

[0013] The sum of the first and second included angles ranges from 89 to 91 degrees. This means that when the hole rotates with the particle counter to near its highest point, the complementary relationship between the first and second included angles ensures that the extension line of the hole's inner wall is approximately perpendicular to the ground, thus ensuring that the falling material does not get stuck. In a more preferred embodiment, the sum of the first and second included angles can be 90 degrees, making the extension line of the hole's inner wall completely perpendicular to the ground.

[0014] Preferably, the inner wall material of the holes in the counting plate is metal.

[0015] Repeated friction between the material and the inner wall of the hole will cause material loss. The wear resistance of the metal material can significantly reduce the wear rate of the hole, reduce the problem of multiple particles being embedded in a single hole due to the increase in the inner diameter of the hole, thereby extending the replacement cycle of the particle plate and reducing equipment maintenance costs.

[0016] Preferably, in the first or second combination, the distance between two adjacent holes in each row of holes is greater than the inner diameter of the hole.

[0017] The spacing between adjacent holes in each row is greater than the inner diameter of the hole, ensuring that the hole wall between two holes has sufficient thickness, thereby avoiding damage when several plates frequently come into contact with materials due to the hole wall being too thin.

[0018] Preferably, several of the embedded functional areas are evenly distributed on the number plate.

[0019] The even distribution of the embedding functional zones on the counting plate means that the time interval between each embedding functional zone rotating to the embedding or dropping zone is consistent, facilitating matching with the operating rhythm of the equipment's feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism can replenish material to the embedding zone at a fixed frequency, avoiding accumulation, jamming, or voids caused by uneven distribution of functional zones.

[0020] Preferably, the hole spacing between any two adjacent rows of holes in the second combination is equal to the hole spacing between any two adjacent rows of holes in the first combination.

[0021] Uniform spacing allows the material to flow more orderly on the surface of the counting plate, resulting in a more even distribution of particles in each hole and reducing counting errors caused by local material density differences.

[0022] Preferably, the counting plate is circular in shape;

[0023] And / or, the outer edge of the counting plate has a flange;

[0024] And / or, the counting plate has a mounting hole at its center;

[0025] And / or, bolt connection holes are provided on both sides of the center of the mounting hole.

[0026] The rounded edges, without any sharp corners, prevent jamming during rotation, ensuring continuous counting and improving counting efficiency. The rounded edges also facilitate the even distribution of holes on the disc surface, and the symmetrical distribution of centrifugal and inertial forces in all directions during rotation reduces vibration, displacement, or detachment caused by structural asymmetry, thus improving counting stability. The bolt connection holes supplement the positioning of the central mounting holes, enhancing the connection strength between the counting plate and other structures.

[0027] This utility model also provides a counting device, which further includes the counting plate as described above, and the counting device is also provided with a first funnel group and a second funnel group;

[0028] The first funnel group is provided with two funnels to receive the material falling from the first combination and the second combination respectively;

[0029] The second funnel group is provided with a funnel to simultaneously receive the material from the first group and the second group;

[0030] The first funnel and the second funnel are alternatively mounted opposite the counting plate to receive the material falling from the counting plate.

[0031] By setting up replaceable first and second funnels, when the first funnel group corresponds to the embedded functional area setting, simultaneous granulation of two bottles can be achieved; when the second funnel group corresponds to the embedded functional area setting, the efficiency of single bottle filling can be improved. Different filling volume requirements can be flexibly adapted to the same granulation plate without repeated loading and unloading, thereby improving the compatibility of the granulation plate.

[0032] The positive and progressive effects of this invention are as follows: By setting up a first combination and a second combination, and providing two or more rows of holes in each combination, fewer holes are needed per row to meet the same particle dropping requirement. This ensures a shorter path for the material from embedding to falling, allowing the material to fall completely before being blocked by the baffle, thus avoiding the problem of excessive particle missing rate. The first and second combinations can accommodate different filling requirements on the same particle counting plate. Furthermore, the distance between the first and second combinations is greater than twice the hole spacing between adjacent rows of holes within each combination. This larger physical interval between the first and second combinations ensures that materials passing through the areas of the first and second combinations do not interfere with each other when falling to different positions.

[0056] Example 1

[0057] like Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a counting board 1, which has four evenly distributed embedded functional areas 10. Each embedded functional area 10 includes five rows of holes 111 arranged in a fan shape with the center of the counting board 1 as the center. Each embedded functional area 10 has a first combination 110 and a second combination 120 arranged sequentially in the direction radiating outward from the center of the counting board 1. Both the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 have two or more rows of holes 111. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first combination 110 has a layout of three rows of holes 111 with 5 holes, 5 holes, and 6 holes arranged sequentially in the direction radiating outward from the center of the counting board 1. The second combination 120 has a layout of two rows of holes 111 with 8 holes, 8 holes arranged sequentially in the direction radiating outward from the center of the counting board 1. The distance between the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 is defined as a, and the hole spacing between two adjacent rows of holes 111 in the first combination 110 or the second combination 120 is defined as b, where a > 2b.

[0058] By arranging the holes 111 in each embedded functional area 10 in a fan-shaped pattern with the center of the counting plate 1 as the center, this layout makes the material more evenly stressed during embedding and dropping, and the fan-shaped dropping points are more dispersed, avoiding mutual interference between materials during dropping. By setting the first combination 110 and the second combination 120, and setting more than two rows of holes 111 in both combinations, fewer holes 111 per row are required for the same number of dropping particles, thereby ensuring a shorter path for the material from embedding to dropping, and allowing the material to fall completely before being blocked by the baffle, avoiding the problem of excessively high particle missing rate. By setting the first combination 110 and the second combination 120, different filling requirements can be accommodated on the same counting plate 1. Furthermore, the distance 'a' between the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 is greater than twice the hole spacing 'b' between two adjacent rows of holes 111 within the two combinations. This means that a larger physical interval is set between the first combination 110 and the second combination 120, ensuring that materials passing through the areas of the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 do not interfere with each other when falling into different positions. In this embodiment, the holes 111 on the counting plate 1 are arranged in 5 rows, with 5 holes, 5 holes, 6 holes, 8 holes, and 8 holes respectively. However, in other embodiments, they can be arranged in a fan-shaped layout with more than 5 rows and varying hole numbers. This part belongs to the prior art in this field and will not be elaborated here.

[0059] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this specific embodiment, the number of holes 111 in the first combination 110 is the same as the number of holes 111 in the second combination 120, both being 16 holes. The number of rows of holes 111 in the first combination 110 is 3, which is 1 row more than the number of rows of holes 111 in the second combination 120.

[0060] The number of holes 111 in the first combination 110 is equal to the number of holes 111 in the second combination 120. This ensures that the amount of material falling into each combination is the same when the two combinations are feeding simultaneously. This facilitates the design of the same number of granulation processes for bottling in the same batch. The number of rows of holes 111 in the first combination 110 is set to be at least one more row than that in the second combination 120 to accommodate the characteristic that the holes 111 embedded in the functional area 10 are arranged in a fan shape.

[0061] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the angle between the inner wall 1110 of the hole 111 and the plane of the counting plate 1 is defined as the first included angle α. The value of the first included angle α is between 70° and 80°. The extension line of the inner wall 1110 of each hole 111 points to the central axis of the counting plate 1 and intersects with the central axis.

[0062] When the hole 111 rotates to the material collection point below, the angle between the inner wall 1110 of the hole 111 and the plane of the counting plate 1 is set at 70-80 degrees. Under the combined action of gravity and the rotational inertia of the counting plate 1, the material can be smoothly embedded, making the embedding process smoother. The extension line of the inner wall 1110 of each hole 111 all points to and intersects with the axis of the mounting hole. This uniform tilt angle design ensures that all holes 111 maintain a consistent spatial posture during rotation, avoiding the occurrence of jamming or leakage of particles due to deviation in the tilt direction of individual holes 111, and ensuring the overall stability of the counting plate 1.

[0063] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the angle between the plane where the counting plate 1 is located and the ground 5 is defined as the second included angle β, and the sum of the first included angle α and the second included angle β ranges from 89° to 91°.

[0064] The sum of the first included angle α and the second included angle β ranges from 89 degrees to 91 degrees. This means that when the hole 111 rotates with the counting plate 1 to near its highest point, the complementary relationship between the first included angle α and the second included angle β ensures that the extension line of the inner wall 1110 of the hole 111 is approximately perpendicular to the ground 5, thus ensuring that the falling material does not get stuck. In a more preferred embodiment, the sum of the first included angle α and the second included angle β can be 90 degrees, making the extension line of the inner wall 1110 of the hole 111 completely perpendicular to the ground 5.

[0065] In this embodiment, the inner wall 1110 of the hole 111 in the counting plate 1 is made of metal.

[0066] When the counting plate 1 is working, the repeated friction between the material and the inner wall of the holes 111 will cause material wear. The wear resistance of the metal material can significantly reduce the wear rate of the holes 111, reduce the problem of multiple particles being embedded in a single hole 111 due to the increase in the inner diameter of the holes 111, thereby extending the replacement cycle of the counting plate 1 and reducing equipment maintenance costs. Of course, in other embodiments, the material of the inner wall 1110 of the holes 111 can also be replaced with other wear-resistant materials according to the usage requirements. This part belongs to the prior art in this field and will not be described in detail here.

[0067] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in the first combination 110 or the second combination 120, the spacing 1112 between two adjacent holes 111 in each row of holes 111 is greater than the inner diameter 1111 of the hole.

[0068] By setting the spacing 1112 between adjacent holes 111 in each row to be greater than the inner diameter 1111 of the hole, the hole wall between the two holes is ensured to have sufficient thickness, thereby avoiding damage when the plate 1 comes into frequent contact with the material due to the hole wall being too thin.

[0069] like Figures 1-4 As shown, four embedded functional areas 10 are evenly distributed on the counting plate 1.

[0070] The four embedded functional zones 10 are evenly distributed on the counting plate 1, meaning that the time interval between each embedded functional zone 10 rotating to the embedded zone or the dropping zone is consistent, which facilitates matching the operating rhythm of the equipment's feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism can replenish materials to the embedded zone at a fixed frequency, avoiding the accumulation, jamming, or voids caused by uneven distribution of functional zones.

[0071] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the hole spacing b between any two adjacent rows of holes 111 in the second combination 120 is equal to the hole spacing b between any two adjacent rows of holes 111 in the first combination 110.

[0072] By setting a uniform spacing, the material can form a more orderly flow state on the surface of the counting plate 1, and the particle embedding opportunity of each hole 111 is more balanced, reducing the counting error caused by local material density differences.

[0073] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the counting plate 1 is circular in shape, the outer edge of the counting plate 1 has a flange 20, the center of the counting plate 1 is provided with a mounting hole 30, and bolt connection holes 40 are provided on both sides of the center of the mounting hole.

[0074] The rounded edge, without sharp corners, prevents jamming during rotation, ensuring continuous counting, improving counting efficiency, reducing vibration shifts or detachment caused by structural asymmetry, and enhancing the stability of the counting plate. The flange 20 effectively blocks and limits the material. The bolt connection hole 40 supplements the mounting hole 30, enhancing the connection strength between the counting plate 1 and other structures.

[0075] This utility model also provides a counting device, which includes a counting plate 1 as described above. The counting device is further provided with a first funnel group and a second funnel group. The first funnel group has two funnels to receive the material falling from the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 respectively. The second funnel group has one funnel to receive the material falling from the first combination 110 and the second combination 120 simultaneously. The first funnel and the second funnel are interchangeably installed opposite to the counting plate 1 to receive the material falling from the counting plate 1.

[0076] By setting up replaceable first and second funnels, when the first funnel is set to the embedded functional area 10, simultaneous granulation of two bottles can be achieved; when the second funnel is set to the embedded functional area 10, the efficiency of single bottle filling can be improved. Different filling volume requirements can be flexibly adapted on the same granulation plate 1 without repeated loading and unloading, thereby improving the compatibility of the granulation plate 1.

[0077] While specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that these are merely illustrative examples, and the scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of this utility model, but all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
