A Hard-gelatin Capsule Filling Machine

A hard-gelatin capsule filling machine for filling two piece capsules is described

wherein empty capsules from a random bulk supply thereof, in a hopper, are fed in succession from a feeding station to an uncapping station and then to a filling station and then to a re-capping station and then to an ejection station in a single continuously rotating phase of the machine. The fill for each capsule body is compressed into a soft slug in a die for subsequent insertion into the capsule body during its passage through the filling station.

Thisinvention relates to hard-galatin-capsule filling machine and is concerned with hard-galatin-capsule filling machine and of the kind (hereinafter referred to as "the kind described") in which the fill is compressed into a soft slug which is thereafterinserted into the bottom part or body of the capsule.

An object of this invention is to provide an improved, fully automatic, continuous motion machine of the kind described capable of achieving a high output of filled capsules in a given time.

A further object of this invention is to provide such a machine in which each capsule, extracted from a random bulk supply of the capsules in a hopper of the machine, is uncapped, filled, and then re-capped with the original cap.

Broadly, this invention provides a hard-gelatin-capsule filling machine for filling two piece capsules and of the kind described in which the capsules are uncapped, filled, re-capped and thereafter ejected in a single, continuously rotating phaseof the machine.

More specifically, according to a feature of this invention, a series of the capsules are fed successively from a bulk supply of the capsules, uncapped, filled, re-capped and thereafter ejected, these steps taking place at successive stations inthe single rotating phase.
