Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rotary tablet machine with a die plate rotatably mounted in a housing and connected to a drive shaft, in which upper and lower punches are guided, the position of which is controlled by curves when the die plate rotates.
  • They are designed as cam rings, each of which is provided with an annular groove in the manner of a control cam in which the stamp heads are guided.
  • the cam rings and control cams are used to move the individual punches up and down in the guides of a rotor, that is to say in their axial direction, when a die disk rotates. This move
  • movements are difficult when the stamps and their stamp guides are dusty due to the press material to be pressed by the stamps.
  • Lubricants which are used for smooth movement of the punches, also contribute to such contamination.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an arrangement which makes it possible to continuously reduce the frictional resistance of the punches when circulating a die to be able to determine the disc in order to be able to take suitable measures, such as for example a lubricant supply, in good time with a relatively high frictional resistance and thus to improve the operational safety of the machine with little effort.
  • the upper punches are guided in a cam ring which is rotatably mounted to the housing and the drive shaft and is connected to a measuring device for its torque.
  • the invention is therefore based on the knowledge that the greater the friction of the punches in their guides, the greater the forces exerted by the punches when they rotate on the guides or directly on the cam rings, in particular also in their bores intended for axial guidance in the rotor. These forces and thus the frictional resistance that the punches have to overcome during their movements can be measured as the torque of the cam ring when it is rotatably mounted.
  • the cam ring can be connected to an inner support ring which is roller-mounted on the drive shaft and carries a lever arm which is connected to a load cell.
  • the lever arm is also arranged, for example, directly on the cam ring can be.
  • the decisive factor is rather that the cam ring itself is easily rotatable on the one hand relative to the housing, and on the other hand is rotatably mounted with respect to the drive shaft so that it is not carried along by the latter, but solely by the influence of the frictional forces.
  • the solution according to the invention can also be used in the same way for the lower punches.
  • the upper punches normally have to be run with very little lubrication in order to avoid that the material to be pressed below the upper punches is contaminated by lubricants, the measurement of the friction of the upper punches is of relatively greater importance compared to the lower punches.
  • the solution according to the invention has the particular advantage that the frictional resistance is measured not only at a specific point on a control curve or the continuous curve in order to measure the stiffness of individual stamps, but across the entire curve. It is possible to electronically evaluate the measured torque using a computer and to control the lubricant supply to the punches as a function of the measurement results obtained.
  • the rotary tablet machine shown in the drawing has a rotatable driven die plate 2 which is connected to a drive shaft 4.
  • the die plate 2 is provided with a plurality of dies not shown in the drawing, which are arranged evenly distributed over the circumference.
  • compressed material from tablets with lower punches and upper punches 12 is pressed together.
  • the upper punches are guided axially adjustable in bores 10 which are located in a rotor 6 which is connected to the drive shaft 4 by a driver 8.
  • a cam ring 14 is provided, which has an annular groove 16, which acts as a control curve for the stamp heads 18 and the stamp 12.
  • the cam ring 14 is designed as a partial ring, as can be seen in FIG. 2.
  • the pre-printing station with the pre-pressure roller 36 and the main printing station with the main pressure roller 38.
  • the compression material 36 is first compressed by the pre-pressure roller 36 and then by the main pressure roller 38.
  • the die plate 2 with the rotor 6 and the punches 12 rotate in the guides 10 according to the arrow 32 in FIG. 2 counterclockwise.
  • the cam ring 14 is connected by screws 20 to a support ring 22 which is roller-mounted on the drive shaft 4 by a bearing 24.
  • This support ring carries a lever arm 26 which extends radially outward beyond the cam ring 14 and interacts with a load cell 28 which is mounted on a stationary housing part 30.
  • the lever arm 26 is connected to the support ring 22 with screws 34.
  • stamp If a stamp is subjected to greater friction during its movement, a force has to be exerted to overcome the resistance, which is symbolically represented in FIG. 2 by the arrow 40.
  • the sum of the resistance forces of all stamps which have to be overcome when the stamp is moved Stamp during the rotation of the die plate 2 acts as a torque via the lever 26 on the load cell 28. Via this load cell, the frictional resistance can thus be measured, namely continuously over the entire course of the curve of the annular groove 16 or control curve and the guide bores 10, within which the stamp 12 move as it rotates.
  • the measurement result to be determined continuously can be used, among other things, for controlling the supply of lubricants, in particular for the Boh stanchions 10 of the rotor 6 as well as for the supply of lubricants for the heads 18 of the stamp 12.
  • the load cell 28 has, for example, a known strain gauge for this purpose, which emits a signal to an amplifier 44 for the purpose of further electronic evaluation.
  • the load cell 28 thus corresponds in principle to a known Wheatstone bridge 42. According to FIG. 3, the amplifier sends the signal to an analog-to-digital converter 46, which inputs the digital result into a computer 48, in which an evaluation takes place.
  • a signal can be triggered via the computer 48 via a signal transmitter 50, for example, in such a way that lubricants are added or, for example, the machine is stopped for the purpose of cleaning.
  • a signal transmitter 50 for example, in such a way that lubricants are added or, for example, the machine is stopped for the purpose of cleaning.
  • an alarm system of an optical or acoustic type There is also the possibility of triggering an alarm system of an optical or acoustic type.
