Filling device for a rotary press and rotary press

Abstract

Filling device for a rotary press, in which powder material filled into cavities of a rotating die disc of the rotary press is compressed into pellets by the upper and lower press rams associated with the cavities, wherein the filling device comprises a filling device housing arranged stationary above the die disc during operation of the rotary press, in which a first filling chamber is formed, in which a first filling wheel is arranged to be driven by a rotary drive, so that powder material located in the first filling chamber is filled from the first filling chamber into the cavities of the die disc, wherein the filling device further comprises a gearbox that can be coupled to the rotary drive for transmitting a rotary motion of the rotary drive to the first filling wheel, wherein the gearbox is arranged in a gearbox housing, and a gearbox coupling is arranged on the gearbox housing.wherein an intermediate bearing for the removable mounting of the gearbox housing is arranged on the filling device housing, and wherein the intermediate bearing has a bearing coupling corresponding to the gearbox coupling, so that the gearbox housing can be detachably connected to the bearing coupling via the gearbox coupling. The invention also relates to a rotary press.
