Abstract
A rotary tablet press with a rotor having a die plate with die bores for producing pressed articles, and with a deflector device for deflecting the pressed articles, which are produced in the die bores and located on the upper face of the die plate in the production process, to an outlet device for the pressed articles, the outlet device includes a conveyor belt for taking over and transporting the pressed articles deflected by the deflector device, wherein the conveying speed of the conveyor belt being adjustable according to the speed of the rotor and/or being adjusted by means of the control device according to the speed of the rotor.
Claims19
An outlet device for large-format pressed articles of a rotary tablet press having a rotor which is drivable in a rotational manner, a die plate and a deflector device for deflecting the pressed articles away from the die plate of the tablet press to the outlet device by the said deflector device, wherein the outlet device comprises a conveyor belt for taking over and transporting the large-format pressed articles deflected by the deflector device, wherein the large-format pressed articles have a diameter or edge length of more than 15 mm, the conveying speed of the conveyor belt is adjustable according to the rotational speed of the rotor, wherein the deflector device comprises a deflector rail with a curved guide wall partially protruding radially over the circumference of the die plate, and partially protruding over the conveyor belt of the outlet device for delaying movement of the large-format pressed articles in the operation region of the deflector rail and guiding the large-format pressed articles parallel to the running direction of the conveyor belt, wherein the conveyor belt is provided with recesses for the through-passage of air, wherein at least one suction chamber is provided between a front belt deflection roller and a rear belt deflection roller for the conveyor belt, and wherein a guide top rail is arranged at a distance above the conveying section of the conveyor belt, said guide top rail extending at least partially above the front belt deflection roller.
