2 is a perspective view showing a configuration of an apparatus 100 for manufacturing a capsule drug according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, the capsule drug manufacturing apparatus 100 according to the present invention includes a frame 110, a chemical solution supply unit 160 provided at an upper portion of the frame 110, and a chemical solution supply unit 160 A pair of film feeding parts 120 and a pair of capsule forming rollers 120 which are provided below the film supplying part 120 and which form films F1 and F2 supplied from the film supplying part 120 into capsules medicine A, A forming roller positioning unit 140 for aligning the positions of the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a, a forming roller driving unit 150 for driving the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a, An input unit 170 provided at one side of the frame 110 to receive an input signal from an operator and a driving unit 170 for driving the forming roller driving unit 150 and the forming roller aligning unit 140 according to signals input from the input unit 170. [ And a control unit 180 for controlling the control unit 180.

Here, the front means a direction in which the forming roller body 131 is disposed with respect to the frame 110, and the rear means a direction opposite to the forming roller body 131 with respect to the frame 110.

The apparatus 100 for manufacturing a capsule drug according to the present invention is configured such that one operator performs alignment of the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a in front of the frame 110 when assembling the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a I will.

The frame 110 includes a film supply unit 120, a pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a, a forming roller positioning unit 140, a forming roller driving unit 150, a chemical solution supplying unit 160, an input unit 170, So that the controller 180 can operate smoothly. In particular, a molding roller driving part 150 for driving the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a is accommodated in the frame 110. [ The forming roller driving unit 150 includes a driving motor and a transmission unit for transmitting the driving force of the driving motor to the pair of driving unit coupling shafts 135c. Here, only one driving motor may be provided or two driving motors may be provided to drive the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a, respectively.

The pair of film supply portions 120 supply the films F1 and F2 to the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a, respectively. The pair of film supply parts 120 includes a film supply roller 121 and an auxiliary roller 123 which rotates in engagement with the film supply roller 121. [ The films F1 and F2 move between the film supply roller 121 and the auxiliary roller 123 and are supplied to the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a.

The pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a are rotated in directions opposite to each other so that the supplied films F1 and F2 and the chemical solution M are formed into capsule medicine A. The capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a include a forming roller body 131 on which the films F1 and F2 are attracted and a forming roller driving shaft 131 coupled to the forming roller body 131 to transmit a driving force to the forming roller body 131 135).

The shaping roller body 131 is detachably coupled to the shaping roller drive shaft 135. The forming roller body 131 is formed in the shape of a circular tube. A drive shaft insertion hole 131b through which the shaping roller drive shaft 135 is inserted is formed in the center of the shaping roller body 131. On the front and rear surfaces of the forming roller body 131, projecting engagement grooves 131a are formed at regular angular intervals. The projection engaging groove 131a is inserted into the roller engaging projection 135b formed on the roller engaging plate 135a of the forming roller driving shaft 135. [

The roller engaging projection 135b is inserted into the projection engaging groove 131a so that the forming roller body 131 and the forming roller driving shaft 135 can be integrally driven.

On the front and rear surfaces of the forming roller body 131, alignment scales 131c are formed at regular intervals along the circumferential direction. The alignment scale 131c becomes an alignment reference when aligning the circumferential positions of the pair of forming roller bodies 131. [ The operator adjusts the forming roller aligning portion 140 such that the position of the aligning scale 131c of the pair of forming roller bodies 131 is matched.

On the plate surface of the forming roller body 131, a film insertion hole 133 in which the films F1 and F2 are inserted is formed by being recessed in the shape of a capsule A. A vacuum adsorption hole 133a is formed at the bottom of the film insertion hole 133 to form a vacuum so that the films F1 and F2 are adsorbed by the film insertion holes 133. [

Although not shown in the drawing, a vacuum forming unit (not shown) is provided at one side of the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a to form a vacuum so that vacuum pressure can be formed through the vacuum adsorption holes 133a.

When the films F1 and F2 are supplied along the outer circumferential surfaces of the pair of forming roller bodies 131, the films F1 and F2 are conveyed to the inside of the film insertion hole 133 by the vacuum pressure applied from the vacuum adsorption holes 133a And the chemical solution M is supplied from the chemical solution supply unit 160 in the nip region between the pair of forming roller bodies 131 and the film is cut and adhered in the shape of the capsule medicine A And the capsule drug (A) is formed.

The shaping roller driving shaft 135 is coupled to the inside of the shaping roller body 131 to transmit the driving force of the shaping roller driving unit 150 to rotate the shaping roller main body 131. The shaping roller drive shaft 135 is disposed so as to protrude forward of the frame 110 and is inserted into the shaping roller body 131. At this time, a roller coupling plate 135a having a large diameter is provided in the coupling area with the frame 110, and a roller coupling protrusion 135b is formed on the plate surface of the roller coupling plate 135a.

On the other hand, at the rear end of the shaping roller drive shaft 135, a drive shaft coupling shaft 135c is extended and formed outside the frame 110 via the inside of the frame 110. [ The end of the shaping roller driving shaft 135 is coupled to the driving shaft rotating gear 141 of the shaping roller positioning portion 140. The transmission coupling 151 of the forming roller driving unit 150 is coupled to the outside of the forming roller driving shaft 135.

The electric coupling 151 is disposed to surround the forming roller driving shaft 135 and then coupled to the driving shaft rotating gear 141 and the driving part fixing bolt 142. The driving force of the forming roller driving unit 150 is transmitted to the driving unit engaging shaft 135c through the transmission coupling 151 and is transmitted to the driving unit engaging shaft 135c and the extended forming roller driving shaft 135. [

One of the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a is coupled to the forming roller positioning unit 140 and the remaining one 130a is coupled to the driving unit engaging shaft 135c, The engaging shaft 135c is not engaged with the forming roller positioning portion 140 but is connected only to the forming roller driving portion 150. [

This is because the position of the remaining one 130 is aligned with respect to the one 130a in order to align the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a.

On the other hand, on the front side of the forming roller drive shaft 135, a coupling bar engaging shaft 137 is formed to protrude. The coupling bar coupling shaft 137 is coupled to an end of the pair of capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a (not shown) and coupled to a coupling bar (not shown) to fix the coupling position.

The forming roller positioning portion 140 aligns the positions so that the circumferential positions of the pair of forming roller bodies 131 coincide with each other. That is, the positions of the alignment scales 131c of the pair of shaping roller bodies 131 are aligned so as to be equal to each other. When the operator inserts the forming roller body 131 into the shaping roller driving shaft 135, the pair of shaping roller bodies 131 are arranged in a shifted position in the circumferential direction, so that the shaping roller positioning unit 140 aligns the positions .

The forming roller positioning unit 140 includes a driving shaft rotating gear 141 coupled to the driving unit engaging shaft 135c at the rear end of the frame 110, A worm gear 143 for driving the worm gear 143 and a worm gear driving motor 143a for driving the worm gear 143 and the driving shaft rotating gear 141 to the driving part coupling shaft 135c A worm gear forward and backward moving portion 145 for moving the worm gear 143 to move toward or away from the drive shaft rotary gear 141 and a worm gear 143 for adjusting the moving direction and the movement amount of the worm gear 143 And a worm gear control dial 147. [

As shown in FIG. 3, the gear teeth 141a are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the drive shaft rotary gear 141. The gear teeth 141a engage with the worm gear 143 to rotate the worm gear 143 in the forward and reverse directions in accordance with the rotational direction and amount of the worm gear 143 and to align the circumferential position of the forming roller body 131.

A bolt insertion hole 141b into which the driving portion fixing bolt 142 is inserted is formed in the shape of a long hole on the surface of the driving shaft rotary gear 141. [ The driving part fixing bolt 142 is inserted into the driving shaft rotating gear 141 through the bolt insertion hole 141b and fixed to the transmission coupling 151. [ The driving part fixing bolt 142 is detached from the bolt insertion hole 141b as shown in FIG. 4 when the operator adjusts the alignment of the forming roller body 131 through the forming roller positioning part 140, And is fastened to the bolt insertion hole 141b when alignment of the bolt 131 is completed.

When the driving part fixing bolt 142 is fastened to the bolt insertion hole 141b, the driving shaft rotation gear 141 is engaged with the transmission coupling 151 so that the driving force of the forming roller driving part 150 is transmitted through the driving part coupling shaft 135c And is transmitted to the roller drive shaft 135. On the other hand, when the driving part fixing bolt 142 is detached from the bolt insertion hole 141b, the worm gear 143 does not transmit to the electric coupling 151 even if the driving shaft rotating gear 141 rotates.

Here, the capsule drug manufacturing apparatus 100 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention controls the transmission of the power between the transmission coupling 151 and the driving shaft rotation gear 141 using the driving portion fixing bolt 142. This is to increase the reliability of the binding state considering that the capsule manufacturing apparatus 100 is operated for at least 24 hours to 48 hours once it is operated.

However, in some cases, power transmission between the electric coupling 151 and the drive shaft rotary gear 141 can be interrupted using an electric clutch instead of the drive portion fixing bolt. When the driving part fixing bolt is used, it is possible to secure the reliability of the binding state, but it may be troublesome for the operator to move forward and backward of the frame 110 in order to unlock and tighten the driving part fixing bolt 142.

In the case of using the electric clutch, the operator can perform all the work without having to go from the front to the rear of the frame 110. [ On the other hand, in the case of the electric clutch, there is a possibility that the engagement state may not be stably maintained for a long operation time, and it is preferable to select whether or not the drive portion fixing bolt and the electric clutch are employed according to the operation time.

The worm gear 143 is rotated to drive the drive shaft rotary gear 141. [ The worm gear 143 is rotated forward and backward by the worm gear drive motor 143a. The worm gear driving motor 143a is driven by the control unit 180 in accordance with the input signal of the input unit 170. [

The worm gear front and rear moving part 145 moves the worm gear 143 to the alignment position where the worm gear 143 is in contact with the drive shaft rotary gear 141 as shown in Fig. 5 when aligning the position of the shaping roller body 131 The worm gear 143 is moved to a driving position that is separated from the driving shaft rotary gear 141 as shown in FIG.

The worm gear front and rear moving part 145 moves the worm gear 143 so that the driving of the forming roller positioning part 140 and the forming roller driving part 150 can be performed independently without interfering with each other.

The worm gear forward and backward moving part 145 is implemented in the form of a hydraulic cylinder and is coupled to the worm gear 143 by a coupling plate 145a. The worm gear forward and backward moving unit 145 is driven by a control signal of the control unit 180 and moves the worm gear 143 back and forth. At this time, although not shown in the drawing, a guide member (not shown) is provided on the back surface of the coupling plate 145a to guide the back and forth movement of the worm gear 143.

The worm gear control dial 147 is provided in front of the frame 110 and receives the rotation direction and the rotation amount of the worm gear 143 from the operator. The worm gear control dial 147 is connected to the control unit 180 and the control unit 180 drives the worm gear drive motor 143a so that the worm gear 143 is rotated in the direction in which the worm gear control dial 147 is driven.

The operator operates the worm gear control dial 147 while confirming the alignment scale 131c of the pair of forming roller bodies 131. [

On the other hand, the coupling shaft coupling bolt 144 fixes the driving shaft rotation gear 141 to the driving shaft coupling shaft 135c. Thus, when the worm gear 143 rotates the drive shaft rotary gear 141, the forming roller body 131 can be rotated.

The input unit 170 receives items related to the operation of the capsule drug manufacturing apparatus 100 from the operator. The input unit 170 may be provided with various input buttons related to the operation of the capsule manufacturing apparatus 100. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, operation on and off buttons may be provided. The operation on and off means whether the capsule molding operation is running. When the operator presses the operation on button, the control unit 180 drives the forming roller driving unit 150. When the operation off button is pressed, the driving of the forming roller driving part 150 is stopped.

On the other hand, the timing motor on and off buttons control the driving of the worm gear drive motor 143a. When the timing motor on button is pressed, the worm gear front and rear moving part 145 moves the worm gear 143 to the alignment position and supplies power to the worm gear driving motor 143a. In this state, when the operator operates the worm gear control dial 147, the worm gear 143 is driven and the drive shaft rotation gear 141 is rotated to adjust the alignment position of the forming roller body 131.

When alignment of the shaping roller main body 131 is completed, the operator presses the timing motor off button. As a result, the worm gear forward / rearward moving portion 145 moves the worm gear 143 to the operating position and the power supply to the worm gear driving motor 143a is cut off.

On the other hand, the control unit 180 controls the worm wheel longitudinal movement unit 145 so that the worm wheel longitudinal movement unit 145 moves the worm wheel 143 to the operation position even if the operator presses the operation on button without depressing the timing motor off button.

The driving force of the forming roller positioning unit 140 and the driving force of the forming roller driving unit 150 are not interfered with each other.

An operation process of the capsule drug manufacturing apparatus 100 and an aligning process of the capsule forming rollers 130 and 130a according to the present invention having such a configuration will be described with reference to FIG. 2 to FIG.

Here, it is described that the alignment position of the first capsule forming rollers 130 is adjusted by the forming roller positioning unit 140, and the position of the second capsule forming rollers 130a is fixed.

The operator joins the forming roller body 131 formed with the film insertion hole 133 corresponding to the size of the capsule medicine A to be manufactured to the forming roller driving shaft 135 as shown in FIG. The shaping roller body 131 is inserted into the shaping roller drive shaft 135 so that the roller engagement protrusion 135b of the roller engagement plate 135a is inserted into the protrusion engagement groove 131a.

When both of the left and right forming roller bodies 131 are inserted into the forming roller driving shaft 135, the operator visually confirms that the pair of forming roller bodies 131 are aligned with each other. When the alignment state is not matched, the operator moves to the rear of the frame 110 and separates the driving portion fixing bolt 142 of the forming roller positioning portion 140 from the driving shaft rotating gear 141 as shown in FIG. Whereby the engaged state of the electric coupling 151 and the drive shaft rotary gear 141 is released.

The operator moves to the front of the frame 110 and presses the timing motor on button of the input unit 170. [ Thus, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the worm gear front and rear moving part 145 moves the worm gear 143 to the alignment position. The worm gear 143 is engaged with the gear teeth 141a of the drive shaft rotary gear 141 at the alignment position.

The operator checks whether the alignment of the alignment graduation 131c of the first capsule formation roller 130 is aligned with the alignment graduation 131c of the second capsule formation roller 130a while rotating the worm gear adjustment dial 147 . If the circumferential alignment states of the alignment marks 131c of the pair of forming roller bodies 131 match each other, the operator presses the timing motor off button. Thus, as shown in FIG. 6, the worm gear front and rear moving part 145 moves the worm gear 143 to the operating position.

Then, the operator moves back to the frame 110 to fasten the driving part fixing bolt 142 to engage the driving shaft rotating gear 141 and the transmission coupling 151.

When the operation on button of the input unit 170 is pressed, the pair of capsule shaping rollers 130 and 130a rotate in directions facing each other, and the film supply unit 120 supplies the films F1 and F2 therebetween , And the chemical liquid supply unit 160 supplies the chemical liquid M. Whereby the capsule drug (A) is produced and separated into the lower part.

As described above, according to the capsule drug manufacturing apparatus of the present invention, two operators have made a loud noise at the front and back of the frame and manually aligned the positions of the capsule forming rollers. Thus, The position of the forming roller can be aligned.

Particularly, the amount of rotation of the worm gear can be finely adjusted through the worm gear adjusting dial from the front, so that alignment of the pair of capsule forming rollers can be precisely controlled.

In addition, since the forming roller positioning portion is provided independently of the forming roller driving portion, no interference is applied to the driving of the forming roller, and stable and reliable operation becomes possible.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and equivalent arrangements may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims. You will know. Therefore, it is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Accordingly, the true scope of the present invention should be determined by the technical idea of the appended claims.
