Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for sorting out defective cylindrical medicament capsules.
  • Drug capsules are used for oral administration of liquid or powdered medicines, which are to take effect with a time delay. They generally consist of gelatin capsules in which the medicament is enclosed, and comprise a centrally arranged, hollow-cylindrical region which is closed on both sides in the axial direction by hollow caps and filled internally with the medicament.
  • the drug capsules are first collected after their preparation and filling in bags, possibly stored temporarily and transferred individually for single administration by means of packaging machines in the wells of blister packs, which consist of a thermoformed plastic film.
  • the cups are superimposed for the individual withdrawal of the drug capsules covered by an aluminum foil and sealed, is pressed through which the respective drug capsule to be removed with proportionate destruction of the aluminum foil and deformation of the respective cup. This can be very hygienic and has proven very successful.
  • an apparatus for automatically sorting capsules in terms of their diameter and weight can be used on machinery for producing empty partially closed capsules, as well as on the entry and exit of machines filling these capsules.
  • the machine allows the automatic selection and discarding of capsules that have been improperly assembled or filled.
  • the device is composed of a sorting disc with edge, rotating on a plane inclined by 20 degrees relative to the horizontal. The disc is pierced in its exterior with one or two rows of calibrated apertures which retain the malformed capsules until they are automatically ejected through a tuyere.
  • the patent application US 3,997,058 A discloses a capsule inspection machine having a horizontal ring with vertical openings.
  • the apertures have a minimum diameter, equal to the specified maximum capsule lid diameter, for receiving individual capsules and a motor for rotating the ring.
  • the invention is based on the object to show a device that allows fully automatic and safer to recognize by deformities unusable drug capsules and excrete fully automatically.
  • the invention should be suitable in addition to the sorting out of defective drug capsules for sorting out other cylindrical bodies whose diameter exceeds at least at one point in one direction an arbitrarily definable nominal value.
  • the device for sorting defective cylindrical medicament capsules having a diameter exceeding in diameter in at least one direction comprises a fixed obliquely inclined pot for receiving the medicament capsules.
  • the pot is closed at the bottom by a disk rotating about an axis.
  • the disc is penetrated by a plurality of parallel to the axis extending and funnel-shaped upwardly extending holes.
  • the holes have an arbitrary minimum diameter that matches all holes.
  • About the storage of the disc at least one directed from below against the holes blowing nozzle is provided and on the opposite side of the disc of the blowing nozzle is provided at least one suction device for defective drug capsules.
  • the funnel-shaped upwardly extending holes are mounted distributed over the surface of the disc and inclined that the entered as bulk material in the pot drug capsules, stimulated by rotation of the disc in the dormant pot, can automatically fall into the holes. Impeccable drug capsules fall through the holes all the way through and are fed to the packaging device.
  • Faulty drug capsules that have a critical diameter violation at at least one circumferential location, however, jam in the holes. They can therefore not fall through the holes and are instead led out of the obliquely upwardly rotating disc from the field of auflastenden capsule bed up in a region in which the subhab of the disc is a blowing nozzle for compressed air and above the disc a suction device for faulty drug capsules. The faulty drug capsules are thereby up and out of the holes in the Suction flow of the suction blown in and transported away through this and disposed of.
  • the pot is provided below the disc with a parallel to the disc extending, fixed bottom, wherein the distance A of the disc from the bottom is smaller than half the diameter of the drug capsules, which is about half the diameter corresponds to the smallest bore diameter, wherein the bottom above the axis arranged in the raceway of the bores ejection opening for the capsules and wherein the blowing nozzle is arranged in the direction of rotation of the disc following the ejection opening.
  • the area where the good drug capsules are ejected is of reduced size, which facilitates the control of continuous drainage.
  • the device is extremely simple. Nevertheless, it is fully automatic large quantities of medicament capsule according to qualitative standards safely and completely check for critical diameter exceedances in any direction and eliminate defective drug capsules reliable.
  • the diameter deviations as such can be done by hand the diameter of the holes arbitrarily define so that a blockage downstream packaging machine is no longer to be feared.
  • a likewise the automatic testing and excretion of defective drug capsules enabling device is indeed in the EP 2 130 612 A2 described.
  • this document is only prior art under Art. 54 (3) EPC.
  • the parts of the device which come into contact with the medicament capsules are made of metal, preferably of stainless steel, which makes it possible to easily meet the hygienic standards prescribed for pharmaceutical areas in the long term and at the same time to achieve an electrostatic neutralization of the medicament capsules.
  • metal preferably of stainless steel
  • electrostatic forces can cause a large number of drug capsules to fuse into a chain, hindering the separation necessary for separate packaging of the drug capsules.
  • the avoidance of fires is promoted by the electrostatic neutralization.
  • the drug capsules to be controlled can be supplied in a particularly simple manner, defective drug capsules can easily be removed via the suction system and any faults can be easily remedied. Also, the cleaning and replacement of the pot and / or the disc against another is particularly easy. Both parts are very easily stored and expediently fixed by quick-release fasteners.
  • a rotatable carrier is expediently mounted for the disc, wherein the driver and the disc are releasably connected by a quick-release tool-less.
  • the replacement of the disc against another or for the purpose of cleaning is thereby particularly simple.
  • the driver can be formed by a stub shaft and / or flange and the quick release by a manually operable clamping screw.
  • the bores should have a cylindrical wall portion with a length L that is at least 0.5 times the length of the drug capsules. This ensures that they are secured after falling into the holes therein from damage and are guided freely movable.
  • the holes should have a length D that is 0.8 to 1.4 times the length of the drug capsules. This helps to prevent damage to existing drug capsules in the holes by not yet recorded in the holes drug capsules, which circulate as bulk material and burden the recorded drug capsules.
  • the holes should have a trumpet like rounded rounded upwardly expanded cross-section. As a result, the drug capsules are able to slide into the holes particularly easily and without damage.
  • the holes should have a largest diameter, which is 0.7 to 1.5 times the length of the drug capsules. This prevents the drug capsules from jamming each other in the holes.
  • the holes are expediently arranged so close to each other that they at the funnel-shaped enlarged end in limit common cutting edges.
  • the top of the disc is formed in such a training in the region of the junctions of the holes by sharp edges, forming a merge honeycomb pattern.
  • the nozzles can be activated by a sensor. They then only come into operation when a hole is blocked by a jammed and thus faulty drug capsule. In terms of compressed air consumption can be achieved by a significant savings.
  • Suitable sensors may be formed by photocells.
  • the suction device is preceded by a scraper for drug capsules, which are still on top of the disc. This prevents "good" drug capsules, which for some reason have not gotten into a hole, are disposed of via the suction device.
  • the scraper may be formed by a brush rotating in opposite directions with respect to the rotation of the disc, which calls loosely resting on the disc, uncontrolled drug capsules back into the Kotroll Scheme the disc.
  • the brush should have a soft fiber trimming to prevent the medication capsules from being damaged by touching the brush.
  • Fig. 1 shows an apparatus for sorting out defective cylindrical medicament capsules 1 of a diameter exceeding a nominal value in at least one direction.
  • the nominal value exceeding diameter is not shown.
  • the device consists of a resting on a machine frame pot 2, whose bottom with an imaginary horizontal plane forms an angle B of about 30 °.
  • a motor 5 rotates about its axis 4 disc 5 is arranged at a small distance A from 1 to 2 mm above the bottom 3.
  • the disc is penetrated by a variety of holes 6, which are extend parallel to the axis 4.
  • the fixed, obliquely inclined pot 2 is intended for receiving the drug capsules 1.
  • the holes 6 are funnel-shaped flared upwards and have a matching, arbitrary set, smallest diameter, wherein the distance A of the disc 5 from the bottom 3 is smaller than half the diameter of the drug capsules 1.
  • the bottom 3 points along the slope above the storage the disc 5 at least one arranged in the running path of the holes 6 ejection opening 7 and in the direction of rotation of the disc 5 on the discharge opening 7 following at least one directed from below against the holes blowing nozzle 8.
  • On the opposite side of the disc 5 of the blowing nozzle 8 at least one suction device 9 is provided for defective drug capsules 1.
  • a rotatable carrier 10 is mounted for the disc 5, wherein the driver 10 and the disc 5 are releasably connected to each other by a quick release tool-free.
  • the driver 10 is formed by a stub shaft and / or flange, which allows the disc rotationally symmetrical and secure against rotation.
  • Fig. 2a shows a pot 2 in an axially parallel plan view, in which a disc 5 is inserted with holes 6, which are assigned to each other in a regular honeycomb pattern.
  • Fig. 2b shows a pot in an axially parallel plan view, in which a disc 5 is inserted with holes 6 which are arranged on circular paths which surround the axis of rotation concentrically. This will become more To get control over the drug capsules.
  • Fig. 3 shows a section of the inserted into the pot 2 disc 5 in longitudinal section.
  • the holes 6 in this case have a cylindrical wall portion with a length L which is at least 0.5 times as large as the length of the drug capsules 1. Falling into the holes 6 drug capsules 1 are thereby secured against jamming of the disc 5 on the stationary, taken ramp-like rising bottom of the pot 3 and fall after reaching the ejection opening 7 safely down out of the holes 6 and through the ejection opening 7 through into a collecting funnel 12, through which they are not shown packaging system supplied.
  • the holes 6 have a total length D, which is 0.8 to 1.4 times as large as the length of the drug capsules 1, in this case 1.1 times as large.
  • the drug capsules 1 which have already fallen into the bores 6 are thereby protected against transverse forces, which can result if the medicament capsules charging on the lower part of the disc 5 of the disc as bulk material are circulated through the obliquely mounted, rotating disc 5. They are thus easily movably received in the holes 6.
  • the holes 6 have a trumpet funnel rounded rounded upwards cross-section. At the funnel-shaped widened end, they bound each other in common cut edges 11 which form a honeycomb pattern, as in FIG Fig. 2a . 2b and 3 is recognizable.
  • the cut edges 11 have, based on the top of the disc 5, an uneven course, see Fig. 3 ,
  • the blast nozzles 8 are activated by sensors, such that only when a clogged hole passes a tuyere 8, a blast of compressed air directed from below against the bore 6 and the drug capsule 1 jammed therein is blown up in suction device 9 and removed.
