Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3133899
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
It is an object of the present invention to realize a method and an apparatus for efficiently mass-producing tablets of high mechanical strength, accuracy and quality which are so excellent in solubility and collapsibility that they can be easily taken by persons of advanced ages and infants. By using a turn table (3) and endless belt means (5) to which a number of dies (10) are connected, a part of which turn table contacts with the endless belt means, the turn table and the endless belt means being adapted to relatively move with respect to each other, receptacles (36) are formed by pressing plastic polymer film (14) in mold cavities (9) of the dies (10). Moist powder supplied from a hopper (12) into filling holes (11) of the turn table (3) is pressuriz-ingly filled in the receptacles (36) by means of a filling and pressurizing device (20) in the region where the turn table (3) is laid above the endless belt means (5). The surface of this pressurizingly-filled moist powder is leveled by removing the excessive powder when the endless belt means (5) is relatively moved with respect to the turn table (3), thus forming a tablet. Then, the surface of the moist powder is chamfered, the mass of the moist powder is treated by a dryer (29), the receptacles are closed by a sealing unit (33), and they are cut by a predetermined number by a cutting device (35), thereby finishing tablet products.
