Description
The invention relates to a kind of equipment that is applicable to the mass production hard capsules for medicament use.
Gelatin once was used as the employed thermal coagulation material of hard capsules for medicament use.But the shortcoming of gelatin is that it may react with pharmaceutical compositions, and from the angle of storage and transportation, the water content in the control capsule is the thing of a trouble simultaneously.
In order to overcome the capsular above-mentioned shortcoming that gelatin is manufactured, the someone has proposed the method that some of the recommendations adopt: a kind of method is to replace carrying out molding after the cellulose esters heat fused with alkyl or hydroxyalkyl; Another kind method is that the shaping core bar is immersed in organic solvent or a kind of aqueous solution, and solution is coated in and forms capsule on the core bar.
With the existing problem of the way of heating means fusing-shaping is that capsular uniformity is difficult to accomplish, also can make the capsule variable color sometimes simultaneously when heating is shaped, becomes yellow or brown.The method of soaking in organic solution has a shortcoming, and that might remain in the capsule the deleterious solvent of human body exactly, and in addition, transporting solvent also is a trouble.As for the manufacturing process that immerses in the aqueous solution, after core bar took out from solution, therefore the solution that sticks on the core bar can be difficult to obtain the uniform capsule of wall thickness toward dirty.In order to improve this method, there is the people once to advise in advance core bar being heated, stick to the lip-deep solution of shaping core bar like this and can be gelatinized.But, this method is difficult to put into practice, because if heating-up temperature is too low, this effect is insufficient, if preheat temperature too Gao Ze in dry run usually wrinkle can appear again.

Below with reference to operation sequence chart among Fig. 5 the method for manufacturing hard-shell capsule with equipment of the present invention is described.
Produce line comprises following operation: (1) capsule core bar is lubricated; (2) the capsule core bar is immersed in a kind of solution of thermal coagulation material, and then from solution, mention; (3) rotation of capsule core bar is in order to stick to equably on the capsule core bar gelling soln; (4) the capsule core bar is immersed in the hot water, from hot water, put forward then; (5) drying; (6) capsule is taken off; (7) finishing and (8) pairing. The capsule core bar turns back to (1) operation after by (1)-(6) operation, recycles between these operations. Production equipment is equipped with two lines, and every all comprises these operations of (1)-(7), and this two lines is used for respectively manufacturing the capsule of different-diameter. The a pair of capsule of different-diameter is worked in coordination.
The top thermal coagulation material of saying should be can pass through heating and the aqueous solution of gel, this material comprises alkylcellulose, hydroxylated cellulose and hydroxy alkyl cellulose, such as methylcellulose propoxyl cellulose, hydroxy ethoxy-methylcellulose, propoxyl-methylcellulose, hydroxy butoxy-methylcellulose hydroxy ethoxy cellulose, hydroxy ethoxy-propoxyl-methylcellulose and other similar materials. These cellulose esters must be water-soluble, therefore usually wishes to use a certain amount of substitute material, namely adopts the material of alkyl and hydroxyalkyl, has 1.4 moles at least in a gram molecule glucose unit. The viscosity of the aqueous solution of manufacturing does not like this have any special restriction. Normally used 2% aqueous solution of the present invention, the viscosity in the time of 20 ℃ is 2~20 centipoises. If the cellulose esters that adopts makes the viscosity of the aqueous solution be higher than above-mentioned numerical value, when implementing the inventive method, will meet difficulty so, unless reduced the concentration of soaking solution.
Cellulose esters is non-ionic, does not react with drug ingedient, and is fool proof. As the Ionized substitution material of growth, just might react with medicine such as hydroxyalkyl and similar material, thereby cause sex change, so this class growth can not be used for method of the present invention.
In manufacturing the practical methods of capsule, cellulose esters is to be dissolved in earlier in the water, reaches predetermined concentration. The aqueous solution of preparation preferably has 10~30% concentration like this, and its viscosity is 1000~15,000 centipoise. If the concentration of solution or viscosity are too low, resulting capsule thickness just may be too little. Otherwise, if the concentration of solution or viscosity are too high, then can bring operational difficulty. Then, the aqueous solution will remove contained air bubble by the way that reduces pressure, with this aqueous solution, after namely soaking solution suitably heats, a period of time of the capsule core bar being soaked into and keeping being scheduled in solution, mentions from solution then. The capsule core bar generally is at room temperature, can certainly carry out preheating in order to reach the purpose of accurate adjustment capsule wall thickness. Then, the capsule core bar is dipped in the hot water, water temperature is higher than the thermal gel temperature of soaking solution in order to impel condensing of the cellulose esters aqueous solution. After hot water soaked, the capsule core bar carried out drying together with cellulose esters gel attached to it in furnace chamber.
After super-dry, the capsule of shaping takes off from core bar, repairs the preliminary dimension that obtains the capsule body then.In addition, capsule lid has the diameter more slightly bigger than capsule body, will form in the same way, and a pair of capsule lid and capsule body are supporting mutually, and lumping together becomes medicinal complete capsule.In capsular stock, can add some other additive as required, in additive, comprise regulator (as polyvinyl alcohol), plasticizer is (as glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol, sucrose and Polyethylene Glycol), brightener (as titanium dioxide, barium sulfate and winnofil) and last toner (as water-soluble dye and color lake).For the capsule that makes shaping takes off from core bar easily, can on core bar, be coated with a kind of remover, such as Oleum Gossypii semen; Liquid paraffin and so on.

As shown in Figure 3, by axle 83 the impetus of linear electric motors 24, the chassis that core bar 2 is housed 50 that is placed on the bracing frame 78 just slides on the roller conveyer 84 of inclination singly.Under situation shown in Figure 3, there is an electric magnet 26 that a chassis 50 is held, stop it to move forward.After electric magnet 26 had been with chassis 50 to be gone back to by a device (back will be introduced), next chassis 50 just was placed on that hold-down support 85 and by a block 86 and locatees.A pick off 116 is housed on this hold-down support 85 is used for surveying chassis 50, above hold-down support 85, be provided with two rotating disks 88, these two rotating disks are coaxial, and distance therebetween approximates the length on chassis 50 greatly.Rotating disk 88 comes transmission by a motor 28.Between these two rotating disks, there is an electric magnet 26 good as if ride over two intermediary bridges of rotating disk.When rotating disk 88 rotations made electric magnet 26 drop to its extreme lower position, the chassis 50 that electric magnet just will be placed on the hold-down support 85 held, and the horse back turn-off.In addition, the extreme lower position that pick off 128,118 and 126 is used for surveying electric magnet 26 respectively is housed also, extreme higher position (1/2 changes) and the centre position (3/4 changes) that is in the right.When electric magnet 26 dropped to extreme lower position, it picked up a chassis 50.When electric magnet rotated with rotating disk 88, electric magnet 26 took the chassis to extreme higher position, and on this position, the capsule that has been shaped just takes off from core bar.
The device that capsule is taken off from core bar, the paired device of trimming device and capsule all is arranged in the top of rotating disk 88.
The device that capsule is taken off from core bar comprises a hydraulic piston bar 30 and pneumatic gripping 32.When piston rod 30 is drawn among the cylinder body 30a, piston rod 30 just passes through a spring 90 with swing arm 91 pull-ups, and that connecting rod 93 with swing arm 91 swing just contacts with baffle plate 92, and at this moment, swing arm 91 just is in the position perpendicular with piston rod 30.When piston rod 30 was released from cylinder body 30a, it moved down.The retroaction that swing arm 91 is connected bar 93 promotes to come on the baffle plate 92, and swing arm 91 also begins to overcome the power that spring 90 pulls back, swing in the counterclockwise direction.In case swing when having surpassed extreme position with respect to swinging axle 95, swing arm 91 is just swung by the pulling force of spring 90 suddenly when swing arm 91, thus connecting rod 93 strike on the baffle plate 96 and be parked in piston rod 30 same lines on.There is a pick off 120 to be used for surveying connecting rod 93 and whether piston rod 30 aligns.After this pick off detects them and aligns, piston rod 30 just by Zhejiang move downward, and be parked on certain position.When piston rod 30 stopped, the chassis that core bar 2 is housed 50 that rotating disk 88 carries was just in time come on the extreme higher position of rotating disk 88.This situation as shown in Figure 8.Detect piston rod 30 by a pick off 122 and be moved down into certain position.
Among the Fig. 8 of being shown in Figure 9 along profile that IX-the IX hatching is got in the direction of arrow.Shown in this accompanying drawing, swing arm 91 is connected with the support 98 that pneumatic gripping 32 is housed.As shown in figure 10, the jaw plate 32a and the 32b of pneumatic gripping 32 have semicircular cross-section, and the external diameter of its internal diameter and capsule core bar 2 adapts.Shown in Figure 4 is to reduce when air pressure, the jaw plate 32a of pneumatic gripping 32 and the open state of 32b, the just state that leaves of jaw plate.When piston rod 30 is in certain certain position, after compressed air fed in the pneumatic gripping 32, two jaw plate 32a and 32b closure were being clamped core bar near on the position of core bar 2 roots.Shown in Figure 11 is partial vertical view, comprises pneumatic gripping 32, the part that capsule core bar 2 is relevant with some.As shown in Figure 9, an oil hydraulic cylinder 34a and a former 38 are housed on the support 98.On the hydraulic piston bar 34 of oil hydraulic cylinder 34a jumper bar 40 is housed, the spacing of jumper bar is identical with the spacing that capsule core bar 2 is arranged on chassis 50.Above a former 38 is arranged some apertures are arranged, the spacing of the aperture also spacing with capsule core bar 2 is identical.The cross-section illustration of getting along hatching XII-XII is in Figure 12.The diameter of former 38 endoporus changes in the middle part of its degree of depth, the diameter of one side is big, and the diameter of another side is less, bigger its diameter of endoporus 38a just in time adds that with capsule core bar 2 outside adherent capsule exsiccant size matches, and the diameter of less endoporus 38b can make jumper bar 40 than loose ground by going.As shown in figure 12, jaw plate 32a and 32b are clipped in core bar 2 does not slidably have the adherent position of dry capsule (near the position on chassis 50).Therefore, if support 98 is carried vertically upward from situation shown in Figure 12, capsule 1 will keep closely cooperating in former 38 so, and takes off from core bar 2, thereby has finished the operation sequence that capsule takes off from core bar.
Now begin from state shown in Figure 8, hydraulic piston bar 30 moves up, thereby swing arm 91 is vertically risen, the capsule 1 that is in the former 38 is deviate from from core bar 2, then pneumatic gripping 32 is opened, along with the rise of swing arm 91, an inclined-plane 93a of connecting rod 93 contacts with a guide finger 41 and is promoted by this guide finger, and the pulling force backward that makes connecting rod 93 overcome spring 90 is swung in the clockwise direction.When connecting rod 93 swing surpassed extreme position with respect to swinging axle 95, swing arm 91 was just swung by the pulling force of spring 90 suddenly, thereby made connecting rod 93 run on the baffle plate 92 and be in on the perpendicular position of piston rod 30.Shown in Figure 13 is exactly the part sectioned view of this state.Survey this state with a pick off 124.Because a cutting knife 43 is housed near the swinging track of former 38 end faces, so the termination 1a of capsule 1 just is cut off in former 38 swings, like this, capsule 1 has just obtained finishing and has had uniform length.
Swing at former 38, as shown in Figure 13, just have one the pairing mould 44 be configured in former 38 near.This pairing mould 44 has an endoporus that runs through, and the diameter of each endoporus changes on the centre position in hole to some extent, is step-like.The diameter of endoporus small diameter portion 44a can make capsule 1 slide in the hole, and endoporus matches with the diameter of capsule 100 than the diameter of major diameter part 44b, the external diameter of capsule 100 is slightly greater than the external diameter of capsule 1, manufacture by another lines, this lines is and that lines of producing capsule 1 mirror image each other, as previously mentioned.The capsule 100 of packing into and manufacturing in the pairing mould 44 with above-mentioned same method.Whether in pairing a pick off 130 has been installed on the mould 44 is used for detecting capsule 100 and correctly is in the endoporus of mould 44.In this case, promote piston rod 34 by cylinder body 34a and by jumper bar 40 capsule 1 is pushed in, each capsule 1 is matched with capsule 100, the capsule that is formed by these two capsule pairings is released from pairing mould 44 then, as shown in figure 14.
Meanwhile, as shown in Figure 3, the position above the electric magnet 26 on being installed in rotating disk 88 is in, after capsule 1 takes off from the core bar 2 on the chassis 50, rotating disk 88 is being with chassis 50 to rotate 1/4 again to be changeed, thereby makes electric magnet 26 towards the right side, and chassis 50 is in the face of clamper 45.The clamping face of clamper 45 is only just having with chassis corresponding that section of 50 two end portions, so just can not hinder the rotation (referring to Fig. 4) of capsule core bar 2.During this time electric magnet 26 stops to attract the chassis.Therefore just can promote these chassis 50 with linear electric motors 36.By the impetus of linear electric motors 36, chassis 50 is pushed out from clamper 45, and chassis 50 is through slide rail 46, lubricating arrangement 47 and another one slide rail 49.Be provided with one in the end of slide rail 49 and fall road 54, landslide, and thereunder be provided with a pair of leading truck 51() referring to Figure 1A.As shown in figure 15, lubricating arrangement 47 has soft hairbrush 57 on the position that capsule core bar 2 passes through, and has the circulation that pipeline 61a and 61b are used for being lubricated agent, and the purpose that is coated with lubricant is that capsule 1 is taken off from core bar 2 easily.Used lubricant is liquid paraffin, edible oil or silicone oil preferably.
The operation control system of the said equipment comprises the content shown in the block diagram among Figure 16, and this control system is operated each corresponding actuating device 10 to 30, and is surveyed and timing by pick off 102 to 130.Figure 17 A, the program that the flow diagram shown in 17B and the 17C comprises all is stored in read-only storage (ROM) part of the control circuit of block diagram.The operation control of from 201 to 250 these operations is all carried out according to operation listed the flow diagram.
The work of control system detects chassis 50(201 by pick off 102) begin to carry out.If pick off does not detect the chassis, then control system is in waiting state.If detected chassis 50, then cylinder rod 10 promptly enters reciprocating motion (202).Whenever cylinder rod 10 reciprocating actions once, just have a chassis 50 to be sent in the elevator 5 and go.When cylinder rod 10 reciprocating action during five cycles (203), linear electric motors 12 are promptly moved (204) by transmission, after pick off 104 detects capsule core bar 2 to have finished the action of soaking in gel solution 3 (205), linear electric motors 12 are counteragent (206) just.Then, linear electric motors 14 actions (207).(208) occurred if pick off 106 detects push rod 62b, this explanation is because the promotion of push rod 62a has had five chassis 50 to be sent to that revolving drum 11.Detect after the push rod 62b, linear electric motors 14 are promptly by transmission counteragent (209), and will confirm that linear electric motors 14 have been counteragents, and push rod 62b just can not hinder next operating process like this.
In next operation, motor 16 rotates certain revolution (211) makes revolving drum 11 can only rotate a week.Because linear electric motors 14 are to move forward in operation 207, push rod 62b pushes elevator 7 to the chassis 50 that places revolving drum 11, and at this moment, linear electric motors 18 move forward capsule core bar 2 is immersed in the hot water storgae 6 (212).When detecting capsule core bar 2, pick off 108 immerses in the hot water storgaes after (213), linear electric motors 18 stop immediately, make capsule core bar 2 in hot water storgae, stop one section preset time " a " (214), to guarantee having enough heats to pass on the capsule core bar.(215) (216) after the time T on the clock in the control system has reached predetermined value " a ", linear electric motors 18 counteragent (217) are immediately risen elevator 7.On the other hand, when pick off 112 detects bracing frame 78 after on the position of ribbon conveyer 77 (218), just reciprocating action of linear electric motors 20 (219) is transplanted on chassis 50 bracing frame 78 from elevator 7 with hooked rod 81.
