Definitions

  • the invention relates to a loading device on packaging machines for small pharmaceutical product objects, such as tablets, pills, capsules, oblong products or the like, with a filling shoe for feeding the product objects into mold yards of a product receiver, such as a shaped film or one, which moves beneath it relative to the filling shoe Format plate with a discharge slide arranged between the format plate and the shaped film, the filling shoe forming at least one loading chamber which has an opening which is open towards the product receiver and its molding yards and in which a product channel leading the product objects in succession ends.
  • a product receiver such as a shaped film or one
  • the filling speed must also increase, and thus the speed of the compressed air flow must be increased.
  • this has the disadvantage that a strong air swirl arises in the molding yards, which creates a counter pressure and hinders the fall of the product objects from the loading chamber into the molding yards.
  • the product objects that do not get into the mold yard quickly enough can then be damaged between the opposite edges of the loading chamber and the mold yard as a result of the product pick-up movement.
  • the back pressure of the air can even become so strong that the product objects no longer get to the bottom of the molding yards, but float in or above the molding yards and u. U. can also be blown out of the mold yards.
  • the filling speed is severely limited.
  • a loading device similar to the type mentioned at the outset in which the filling shoe and the product receiver move synchronously with one another during the loading process and instead of the mold cavities in the product receiver, downwardly open containers are provided on a conveyor.
  • a set of relatively mutually movable measuring and control plates with mold openings which control the transition of the product object from the loading chamber into the container by the mutual movement of the measuring and control plates and at the same time a positional orientation of the Effect product object.
  • a vacuum or low-pressure chamber is arranged under the container and the conveyor, so that downwards through the conveyor and the container onto the molded object a suction effect accelerating its fall into the container is exerted.
  • This acceleration of the falling process with the aid of suction air is evidently tied to the prerequisite that the container is open at the bottom and therefore the suction air can flow through it parallel to the direction of movement of the product object entering the container.
  • this requirement is not met, however, so that extraction according to the known model is not possible here.
  • the suction air in the loading chamber itself can no longer have an effect, so that it affects the Transfer of the product objects from the product channel into the loading chamber is without any influence.
  • the invention has for its object to design a loading device of the type mentioned in such a way that significantly higher filling speeds than in the free fall of the product objects or with a stream of compressed air can be achieved.
  • the loading chamber is connected to at least one suction channel via at least one suction groove which is open towards the product receiver and which is connected to a vacuum source (suction pump for vacuum).
  • the suction air flow in the product channel not only detects the product objects located directly in front of the loading chamber, but all of them.
  • the suction effect on the product object in the loading chamber and during its transition into the molding yard can be specifically influenced according to strength and direction, so that in particular reorientation of the position of the product objects can be optimally supported and accelerated during their transition from the product channel through the feed chamber into the molding yard, which is not possible when using compressed air.
  • the filling speed can be increased significantly.
  • suction air flow Another very important advantage of the suction air flow is that the air drawn in comes from the immediate vicinity of the packaging machine, that is, it is correspondingly clean and sterile if the machine itself is operated in a sterile clean air area. All solid waste arising during the feeding of the product objects, namely fragments or remnants as well as dust from the product objects, is sucked in and extracted, so it cannot get into the environment. The same applies to damaged product objects themselves.
  • By suitably designing and dimensioning the effective suction cross-section on the loading chamber it is in your hand to vacuum product objects that have only undergone minor damage, but which have changed their shape that they exit through the suction cross-section and can be removed by the suction air flow.
  • An embodiment which is expedient with regard to the position and course of the suction groove or suction grooves is characterized in that, in the case of a filling shoe, in the loading chamber of which the product channel opens at an incline in a plane which is essentially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the product receiver, the suction groove on the side of the loading chamber at the acute mouth angle of the Product channel is provided.
  • the suction effect emanating from this suction groove can act directly on the product object in such a way that it promotes and accelerates the change in orientation of the product object that is required during the transition from the product channel to the mold yard.
  • An acceleration of this transition can also be achieved very advantageously and effectively by the fact that the front side of the loading chamber in the direction of movement of the product receiver is formed by a guide ramp for the product objects which runs obliquely in this direction against the product receiver, and that the suction groove or suction grooves along the guide ramp runs or run.
  • the result of this is that a product object that is still in the feed chamber and already in the molding yard is directed by the suction air flow in the direction of movement of the product sensor along the guide ramp into the molding yard, even if the wall part of the molding yard that is rearward in the direction of movement of the product sensor does not yet convey the product object has reached.
  • An expedient embodiment is characterized in that, with only one suction groove, it runs centrally to the loading chamber in the ramp surface of the guide ramp. With two suction grooves, on the other hand, they run better on both sides of the ramp surface of the guide ramp.
  • the design of the feed chamber in detail depends on the type and nature of the product objects and their supply in the product channel. It should be taken into account that the loading area must not only enable the separation of the product objects from the product column they have formed in the product channel, but also, if necessary, a change in the orientation of the product object if the orientation of the product objects coming from the product channel into the loading chamber is not aligned with their orientation in the mold yard matches.
  • the simplest embodiment is therefore the one in which the loading chamber is designed in such a way that it completely receives the product object in the orientation corresponding to its later position in the molding yard. When passing through a molding yard, the product object then only needs to drop into the molding yard accelerated by the suction air.
  • a preferred embodiment in this respect is characterized in that for oblong products the longitudinal axis of the charging chamber and the molds is transverse to the direction of movement of the product receiver and the product channel in the charging chamber opens essentially in the longitudinal direction thereof, and that the wall of the charging chamber opposite this mouth is inclined is inclined towards the product receiver. The change of orientation can then be initiated within this chamber part and completed on the guide ramp.
  • the loading chamber is connected according to the invention through the molding yard to the suction channel provided in the discharge slide, so that the suction air flow passes through the molding yard in the same direction as the loading with the product item, so that the product item is drawn into the molding yard particularly effectively.
  • the product objects are generally designated 2. They can be oblong products in capsule form according to FIGS. 1 to 4 or tablets of circular cross-section as in the figures of the other exemplary embodiments. However, the invention is of course not limited to such tablets.
  • a filling shoe 1 is used to feed the product objects 2 into the mold cavities 3 of a product sensor 5 which is moved past under the filling shoe 1 in the direction of the arrows.
  • the product sensor can be a plastic shaped film, for example made of PVC, with molding yards produced therein by deep drawing be;
  • the product receiver can also be from one the format plates 3 containing the format plate may be formed, a discharge slide 1 'being arranged between the format plate and a shaped film 5' which in turn ultimately accommodates the product objects in its own form cells 3 'and which can be reversibly moved back and forth relative to the format plate in the direction of the double arrow 4a.
  • the product objects 2 contained in the molding holes 3 of the format plate can simultaneously fall through the discharge openings 3a into the molding holes 3' of the molding film 5 ', for example temporarily standing still during this process, which thus moves clocked in the direction of arrow 4b.
  • the movement of the product sensor 5 with respect to the filling shoe 1 is in any case to be understood as a relative movement.
  • the filling shoe 1 can also be moved with respect to the product receiver 5 designed as a format plate, as is the case in the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS.
  • the filling shoe 1 for transferring one of each of the product objects 2 forms a loading chamber 6, which has an opening which is open towards the bottom of the product receiver 5 and is connected to a product channel 7 which feeds the product objects 2 from a magazine device, not shown, in succession to the feeding chamber 6 .
  • These product channels 7 can run vertically above the loading chamber 6, as in FIGS. 5 to 7.
  • FIGS. 8 to 11 show exemplary embodiments in which the product channels 7 are inclined in a vertical plane parallel to the direction of movement 4 of the product receiver 5, while in In all other exemplary embodiments, the product channels 7 run inclined in a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement 4 of the product receiver 5. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS.
  • the oblong products forming the product objects 2 are arranged in the direction of their longitudinal axis in the product channel 7.
  • the tablets lie on one another with their circular surfaces, that is to say they are stacked coaxially in the product channel 7, while in all other exemplary embodiments in the product channel 7 they are, as it were, abutted against one another, that is to say only on their circumference touch.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 or 20 to 22 a corresponding number of charging chambers 6 are arranged next to one another, as is shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 or 20 to 22 using the example of two charging chambers each, in FIGS. 16 to 18 is shown using the example of three loading chambers.
  • the filling shoe 1 has its own loading chamber 6 with its own product channel 7 for each molding yard 3. This arrangement can obviously be extended to any number transverse to the direction of movement 4 of the product receiver 5, adjacent molding yards 3.
  • the charging chamber 6 is connected to at least one suction air duct 8.1, 8.2, which is connected to a vacuum source, not shown, for example a suction pump for vacuum, which can be largely arbitrary, provided that there is only sufficient suction power and suction power.
  • a solid separator also not shown
  • the feed chamber 6 is connected to the suction channel 8.1, 8.2 via one or more suction grooves 8.
  • the se suction grooves 8 are open to the product sensor 5.
  • one of the suction grooves 8 on the side of the loading chamber 6 and in acute opening angle 8 'of the product channel 7 may be provided so that the suction air exerts an effect on the product object 2 which promotes and accelerates the folding of the product object 2 into the flat horizontal position.
  • the front side of the loading chamber 6 in the direction of movement 4 of the product receiver 5 is inclined in this direction against the product receiver 5 Guide ramp 9 formed for the product objects 2.
  • the suction grooves 8 run along the guide ramp 9. If only one suction groove 8 is present, as in the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 3 or 5b or 6b, this suction groove 8 runs centrally to the loading chamber 6 in the ramp surface of the guide ramp 9. On the other hand, there are two in total Suction grooves 8 are provided per loading chamber 6, as is the case in the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 4 and 5a or 6a, these suction grooves 8 run on both sides of the ramp surface of the guide ramp 9.
  • the suction effect of the suction air within the product channel 7 can be influenced by suction channels 13, as are provided in the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 6a, 6b, 9 to 11 and 13. They run in the wall of the product channel 7 and end in the charging chamber 6.
  • suction channels can also be formed at 13 ′ between the circular-cylindrical product column formed by the product objects 2 and the charging channel 7 with a square cross section, as in FIGS. 5b to 7b.
  • the suction effect through the four corner channels 13 'along the product column is particularly optimal.
  • the loading chamber 6 can, as in FIGS. 1 to 4 or 5b, 6b and 7b, be designed such that it can receive the product object 2 completely in the orientation corresponding to its later position in the molding yard 3. More often, however, the case will arise that the loading chamber 6 must enable the product objects 2 to be reoriented from their position specified by the product channel 7 to the later position of the product objects in the molding yards 3.
  • the guide ramp 9 already mentioned plays a decisive role in this by forcing the product object 2 to perform the movement sequence necessary for this change in orientation.
  • the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5a, 6a and 7a shows a particularly typical case where the initially upright product object 2 is transferred to the horizontal flat position on the guide ramp 9. Similar conditions exist in the case of FIGS.
  • the loading chamber 6 also has a chamber part 14 with a passage cross section between the mouth 11 of the product channel 7 and the beginning of the guide ramp 9, which cross section corresponds to that seen in the direction of movement 4 of the product receiver 5 Projection of the part of the product object 2 protruding from the molding yard 3 into the loading chamber 6, in its orientation still determined by the inclination of the product channel 7. In this chamber part 14, therefore, the product object 2 is reoriented during the movement of the product sensor 5, which is then completed along the guide ramp 9.
  • the loading chamber 6 can completely accommodate the product object 2, as in particular in FIGS. 1 to 4, the product object 2 only needs to fall out of the loading chamber 6 into the molding yard 3 when the molding yard 3 has the mouth the loading chamber 6 happens.
  • the longitudinal axis of the feed chamber 6 and the mold cavities 3 lie transversely to the direction of movement of the product receiver 5.
  • the product channel 7 opens into the feed chamber 6 essentially in the longitudinal direction thereof.
  • the wall 12 of the charging chamber 6 opposite this mouth 11 is inclined obliquely towards the product receiver 5 and is rounded in a concave manner, so that a product object 2 coming from the product channel 7 into the charging chamber 6 can be deflected downwards on this chamber wall 12.
  • FIGS. 19 and 20 to 22 with a product sensor 5 designed as a format plate show the case in which the filling shoe 1, which moves back and forth over the product sensor 5 in the direction of the double arrow 4, can feed the mold yards 3 in the direction of both movement strokes.
  • the filling shoe 1 in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 19 is of completely symmetrical design in both directions of movement with respect to the loading chamber 6, the suction grooves 8 and the suction channels 8.1, 8.2, the suction channels 8.1 or 8.2 being alternately connected to the suction source.
  • 20 to 22 show the case in which the loading chamber 6 is connected through the molding holes 3 to the suction grooves 8 provided in the discharge slide 1 '.
