Definitions
- the present invention relates to a machine for automated sorting of defective capsules, according to their diameter and weight.
- the machine can be used on machines for the production of empty capsules after partial closure, as well as at the entrance and exit of the machines that fill these capsules. This machine allows automatic selection and rejection of capsules with the following defects:
- a device for sorting capsules with an assembly fault is already used in production. It is composed of several sieves, arranged to form a cylinder of horizontal axis. Each sieve is pierced with several orifices calibrated to a diameter slightly greater than a few hundredths of a millimeter to that of the capsules.
- Another machine uses a blowing device to eject empty (unmeasured) or single (separate head and body) parts.
- the disadvantage of this system is that it does not treat the capsules individually.
- the capsules are processed in a cluster and often the defective parts can not be expelled because they are driven by the other capsules.
- the device according to the invention integrates the two sorting functions (telescoped capsules & empty capsules, under dosed and single) while overcoming the various disadvantages of existing devices mentioned above.
- the machine consists of a sieve in the form of a selection disc with or without rim, its axis is inclined by about twenty degrees relative to the vertical. In the case of a selection disc without rim, it is the frame of the machine that serves as a rim to allow the capsules to be contained. Calibrated orifices adapted to the format of the capsules to be sorted are drilled on the periphery of this disc.
- Each orifice consists of the following three parts: A conical inlet to facilitate the tilting and the introduction of the capsules, a calibrated section with a diameter of a few hundredths of a millimeter greater than that of the size of the capsule and a section of a diameter stronger which facilitates the descent of the capsules conform.
- the orifice may contain several superimposed capsules.
- the capsules to be sorted enter continuously into the machine through an inlet chute and fall into the lower part of the selection disk rotated by the motor shaft. They are housed in the calibrated orifices and go up towards the upper part of the device. In the event of overfeeding (lack of capacity for sorting the disc or stopping rotation of the selection disc), the excess of capsules overflows into a specific tray (called "overflow").
- the height of the rim and the angle of inclination of the disk are defined to prevent the capsules cover the entire surface by grouping them in the lower part.
- a flexible scraper device assists in the introduction of the capsules into the holes of the selection disc.
- a fixed plate located under the sieve obstructs the outlet of the holes forcing the capsules to remain superimposed vertically.
- the retaining plate is recessed in the alignment of the orifices of the selection disk in its upper part.
- Capsules with an assembly defect remain blocked in the calibrated holes of the selection disc. After an additional quarter-turn rotation, these capsules pass over the nozzle of "automatic ejection blow of the telescoped capsules" and are ejected upwards, via a chute, into a specific discharge tank (called “Fault of assembly defects”). This blowing also ensures automatic cleaning of the calibrated holes of the selection disc.
- the selection disk has only one row of calibrated orifices.
- the orifices are distributed in staggered rows.
- the drilling angle of the orifices is made in such a way that the outlets of the orifices of the 2 rows open on the same diameter of the disc or close to being.
- FIG. 1 represents the selection disc, viewed from below.
- Figure 2 shows the selection disk on its axis, in section AA.
- Figure 3 shows the selection disk, vertical of the ejection nozzle capsules telescoped.
- the sorting machine consists of a selection disc (1) placed on the motor shaft (2).
- This set is inclined by about twenty degrees to force the capsules to remain in the lower part of the disc.
- the capsules slide into the inlet flap and fall into the lower part of the selection disc (on the left of Fig. 2).
- the motor shaft rotates the selection disk.
- the capsules are introduced into the calibrated orifices pierced at the periphery of the disc.
- the inclination of the disc as well as the device of flexible scrapers (3) help the introduction of the capsules into the orifices.
- the rim height is set to prevent the capsules to be sorted from covering the entire disk. In case of overfeeding or stopping the selection disc, the excess capsules overflow into a specific tray (called "Tray too full").
- Each orifice of the selection disk (1) is constituted as follows.
- a conical inlet to facilitate the tilting and the introduction of capsules a section calibrated with a diameter of a few hundredths of a millimeter greater than that of the capsule.
- the hole ends with a section of a larger diameter that facilitates the passage of capsules conform.
- the orifice is of sufficient length to contain several superimposed capsules. - AT -
- the holes are distributed in staggered rows (see Fig. 4).
- the drilling angle of the orifices is made in such a way that the outlets of the orifices of the two rows open onto the same diameter of the disc or close to the same.
- the selection disk will have only one row of calibrated holes drilled perpendicular to the surface of the disk.
- the capsules housed in the ports are stopped by the retaining plate (4) (left side of Fig. 2) and move upwards through the rotation of the selection disk. After half a turn, the retaining plate is recessed to allow the capsules to be emptied (right side of Fig. 2). Diameter compliant capsules pass through the calibrated orifice. In the fall, they pass in front of the expulsion blowing web of the empty capsules (5). Empty, low-dose capsules and single pieces (separate capsule body and cap) are deflected by blowing into a specific waste container (called the "dosing defects container"). The conforming capsules, heavier, are not deflected and fall into the outlet gallout of conforming capsules.
- Capsules which have a defect of assembly remain locked in the calibrated orifices. After a further rotation of the selection disc by a quarter of a turn (Fig. 3), the blocked capsules pass over the automatic ejection blow nozzle of the telescoped capsules (6) and are ejected upwards via a chute (8), in a specific discharge tank (called "Fault of assembly").
