Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical production equipment technology, and in particular to a soft capsule compression machine for producing capsules. Background Technology

[0002] Prostilbene vaginal capsules are a type of drug used to treat gynecological diseases. Their production typically requires a capsule pressing machine. A Chinese patent application (application number 202323429310.9) discloses a soft capsule pressing machine for producing prostilbene vaginal capsules. The machine includes a body and a mounting frame on one side of the body. Two longitudinally arranged guide rods are installed at one end of the mounting frame. Two movable frames are laterally slidably mounted at both ends of the two guide rods. Each movable frame extends upwards at both ends and is equipped with a rotating shaft. The ends of the rotating shafts, close to each other, are connected to a rolling mold. A bidirectional screw is installed at the end of the mounting frame away from the guide rods. One end of each of the two movable frames is threaded to both ends of the bidirectional screw. One end of the bidirectional screw extends outside the mounting frame and is equipped with a limiting component.

[0003] While the aforementioned technology, through the setting of a single bidirectional screw and the setting of the limiting component, allows for a certain degree of adjustment and fixation of the die spacing during proestradiol vaginal capsule compression, in actual use, manual adjustment is required, resulting in low accuracy and slow speed. Furthermore, additional operation of the limiting component is needed to fix the spacing. Therefore, to address the low efficiency of the aforementioned technology, we propose a soft capsule compression machine for capsule production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a soft capsule compression machine for producing capsules.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A soft capsule compression machine for producing capsules includes a main body for producing proestrene vaginal capsules. The main body has a mounting frame with a mounting shell on the side away from the indicator needle. A bidirectional screw end of the main body extends into the mounting shell and is fitted with a worm gear. A worm gear is fitted to the upper side of the mounting shell corresponding to the worm gear. A drive motor is fitted to one end of the worm gear on the frame of the mounting frame. The other end of the worm gear extends to the outside of the mounting shell and is connected to a rotation angle sensor.

[0007] Preferably, a drive block is mounted on the rod body of the worm gear located between the drive motor and the mounting housing, and the drive block has a hexagonal cross-section.

[0008] Preferably, the side of the mounting shell away from the mounting frame is open, and a matching inspection cover is installed at the opening of the mounting shell by screws.

[0009] Preferably, the inspection cover has a mounting groove in the middle, and an observation plate is installed in the mounting groove.

[0010] Preferably, the upper side of the mounting shell is provided with a filling port, and a first sealing plug is provided inside the filling port.

[0011] Preferably, a drain outlet is provided in the middle of the lower side of the mounting shell, and a second sealing plug is provided inside the drain outlet.

[0012] Preferably, the end of the worm gear away from the drive motor is provided with a plug-in portion, and the worm gear is connected to the rotation angle sensor through the plug-in portion.

[0013] The soft capsule compression machine for producing gelatinous capsules proposed in this utility model has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. This utility model firstly replaces the traditional, inefficient manual drive with a drive motor. Secondly, the cooperation between the worm gear and worm amplifies the torque of the drive motor, allowing it to drive the bidirectional screw more effortlessly and more precisely control its rotation angle. Furthermore, the self-locking characteristic between the two eliminates the need for additional limiting components for the bidirectional screw. This optimizes the structure and improves operational convenience while ensuring the normal operation of the shot press. Finally, the inclusion of a rotation angle sensor makes the monitoring of the bidirectional screw's rotation angle more accurate than traditional solutions. The sensor can also be cross-validated with the existing indicator needle on the shot press equipment, further enhancing the accuracy of the rotation angle monitoring results. In summary, the coordinated operation of all components makes this solution more convenient to use than traditional solutions, thereby improving shot press efficiency.

[0015] 2. The drive block in this invention allows for manual rotation of the worm gear using an external wrench when the drive motor is damaged due to power failure. This enables manual adjustment of the rolling die spacing in emergency situations. The inspection cover facilitates maintenance and repair of the worm wheel and worm. The observation plate allows for easy monitoring of the worm gear and worm wheel's operation during normal operation, enabling timely detection of any meshing problems. The filling port facilitates the addition of lubricating medium to the mounting housing to reduce wear between the worm wheel and worm. The drain port allows for convenient discharge of waste liquid and grinding debris from the mounting housing. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] Reference Figs. 1-3 A soft capsule compression machine for producing capsules includes a main body 1 for producing proestradiol vaginal capsules (prior art application number: 202323429310.9). The mounting frame of the main body 1 has a mounting shell 2 on the side away from the indicator needle. The bidirectional screw end of the main body 1 extends into the interior of the mounting shell 2 and is equipped with a worm gear 3. A worm 4 is installed on the upper side of the interior of the mounting shell 2 corresponding to the worm gear 3. A drive motor 5 is provided on the frame of the mounting frame corresponding to one end of the worm 4. The other end of the worm 4 extends to the outside of the mounting shell 2 and is connected to a rotation angle sensor 6.

[0023] Example 2

[0024] Reference Figs. 1-3 While all other parts are the same as in Example 1, the difference between this example and Example 1 is that:

[0025] A drive block 7 is mounted on the rod body of the worm gear 4 located between the drive motor 5 and the mounting housing 4. The drive block 7 has a hexagonal cross-section. The side of the mounting housing 2 away from the mounting frame is open. A matching inspection cover 8 is installed at the opening of the mounting housing 2 by screws. The inspection cover 8 has a mounting groove in the middle, and an observation plate 9 is installed in the mounting groove. The setting of the drive block 7 allows personnel to manually rotate the worm gear 4 with an external wrench when the drive motor 5 is damaged due to power failure. This allows the shot press machine to manually adjust the gap of the rolling die in an emergency. The setting of the inspection cover 8 facilitates personnel to maintain or repair the worm wheel 3 and the worm gear 4. The setting of the observation plate 9 allows personnel to easily observe the operating status between the worm gear 4 and the worm wheel 3 at any time during the normal operation of the shot press machine, so as to promptly detect any problems with the meshing between the two.

[0026] The mounting housing 2 has a filling port on its upper side, with a first sealing plug 10 inside. The mounting housing 2 has a drain port in the middle of its lower side, with a second sealing plug 11 inside. The end of the worm gear 4 away from the drive motor 5 has a plug-in part 12. The worm gear 4 is connected to the rotation angle sensor 6 through the plug-in part 12. The filling port facilitates the addition of lubricating medium into the mounting housing 2 to reduce wear between the worm wheel 3 and the worm gear 4. The drain port facilitates the easy discharge of waste liquid and grinding debris from the mounting housing 2. The first sealing plug 10 and the second sealing plug 11 facilitate the sealing of the filling port and the drain port. The plug-in part 12 facilitates a convenient and stable connection between the worm gear 4 and the vibration motor sensor 6.

[0027] Operating principle and advantages: In use, this utility model produces proestrexate vaginal capsules through the main body 1 of the saccharification equipment. Specifically, the capsules are saccharified using two rollers on the main body 1. In the above process, when it is necessary to adjust the spacing of the rollers, the traditional solution is to manually rotate the bidirectional screw to adjust the spacing of the rollers. At the same time, the rotation angle is determined by an indicator needle installed at the other end of the bidirectional screw. In this solution, the drive motor 5 drives the worm 4, the worm 4 drives the worm wheel 3, and then the worm wheel 3 drives the bidirectional screw to rotate. The rotation angle of the worm 4 is monitored by the rotation angle sensor 6.

[0028] Therefore, in the above process, firstly, the setting of drive motor 5 replaces the traditional inefficient manual drive, making this solution more convenient to use. Secondly, through the cooperation of worm gear 3 and worm 4, on the one hand, the reduction characteristics between the two not only amplify the torque of drive motor 5, but also enable drive motor 5 to more accurately control the rotation angle of bidirectional screw. On the other hand, the self-locking characteristics between the two also eliminate the need for additional limiting components for bidirectional screw. Thus, the structure is optimized and the ease of operation is improved while ensuring the normal operation of the shot press machine. Finally, through the setting of rotation angle sensor 6, this solution is more accurate in monitoring the rotation angle of bidirectional screw compared with the traditional solution. Moreover, the rotation angle sensor 6 can be mutually verified with the original indicator needle on the main body 1 of the shot press equipment to improve the accuracy of the bidirectional screw rotation angle monitoring results.

[0029] Furthermore, the design of the drive block 7 allows personnel to manually rotate the worm gear 4 using an external wrench when the drive motor 5 is damaged due to power failure. This enables manual adjustment of the roller die spacing in emergency situations. The inspection cover 8 facilitates maintenance or repair of the worm wheel 3 and worm gear 4. The observation plate 9 allows personnel to easily observe the operating status of the worm gear 4 and worm wheel 3 during normal operation of the shot press, enabling timely detection of any meshing problems. The filling port facilitates the addition of lubricating medium into the mounting housing 2 to reduce wear between the worm wheel 3 and worm gear 4. The drain port facilitates the convenient discharge of waste liquid and grinding debris from the mounting housing 2. The first sealing plug 10 and the second sealing plug 11 facilitate the sealing of the filling port and drain port. The insertion part 12 facilitates a convenient and stable connection between the worm gear 4 and the vibration motor sensor 6.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
