An airflow drying device includes a granulated substance introduction portion, a dry process portion, and a product ejection portion. The granulated substance introduction portion includes a granulated substance inlet into which granulated substances are to be put, and a hot air inlet into which hot air is to be supplied. The dry process portion includes a loop pipe. The loop pipe is positioned laterally in a horizontal direction, and is able to dry granulated substances. The product ejection portion includes a cyclone collector where the granulated substances are collected after being dried through the loop pipe.

Drying device and continuous granule production system

A deviation handling apparatus for a continuous production system of granulated products includes a storage section for temporarily storing the products, an inspection section for inspecting selected physical properties of the products, a moving route switching section for switching the moving route of the products according to the results of the inspection and a discharge path for discharging the products judged as not meeting the specifications. The storage section has two shutoff valves and a storage chamber formed therebetween. The switching section has a switching valve having a normal position and a deviation position for causing a conveyance route to communicate with the discharge path. The deviation handling apparatus closes the shutoff valves to store products in the storage chamber and inspect properties of the products. When off-specification products are detected, the switching valve is switched to the deviation position and the products are discharged.

Deviation handling apparatus and deviation handling method

A spray gun () forms a desired spray pattern by atomizing by means of atomizing air (A) a spray liquid which is sprayed from a liquid ejection port () opened/closed by a needle valve (), and jetting pattern air (P) to the flow of spray mist of the atomized spray liquid. A nozzle taper angle (&#x3b8;) is set in a range of 5&#xb0; to 15&#xb0;, and a cap taper angle (&#x3b8;) is set in a range of 20&#xb0; to 40&#xb0;. Atomizing air (A) is jetted from a nozzle insertion hole () toward the center of a nozzle (). Pattern air (P) is jetted in a spreading suppressed region (R) wherein the flow of the spray mist does not spread over an area greater than or equal to a predetermined cross-sectional area, to the flow of spray mist, and as a result, the spray mist is more uniformly sprayed over a wide range.

Spray gun

In a pan coating apparatus including a rotary drum which rotates about a horizontal rotation axis, an air supply chamber having a larger sectional area than that of an opening portion is arranged on a front stage with respect to the front-surface opening portion of the rotary drum. The air supply chamber is formed in a chamber door attached to a front of a casing, and has one end side communicating to the opening portion and another end side connected to an air supply duct via an air supply hole. The air flowing into the air supply chamber from the air supply duct is reduced in flow rate in the air supply chamber and supplied from the opening portion into the rotary drum with the air flow thereof in a stable state.

Pan coating apparatus

A spray gun () is attached to a multi-function unit () movable in a horizontal direction and a perpendicular direction. The spray gun () is mounted to a support holder (), and the support holder () is connected to a support arm () of the multi-function unit (). The support arm () is attached to a unit cover () which is openable/closable with respect to a casing (). The support holder () and the support arm () can hide and house a liquid hose and an air hose therein so that the hoses and the like are arranged in an apparatus in such a state as to be completely free from being exposed. An installation position of the spray gun () can be finely adjusted by the multi-function unit () during a coating process, thereby enabling a control for keeping constant distances between tablet surfaces and the spray gun ().

A pair of compression rollers and parallel with each other are provided and powder grains are supplied to a powder grain introduction/compression part formed between the rollers and and, thereby, compression moldings of the powder grains are formed. A powder grain press/feed means is provided in a front stage of the rollers and The press/feed means has a deaerating barrel and previously presses the powder grains supplied between the rollers and In side surfaces of the rollers and side seals are arranged with clearances maintained from the rollers and During pressing the powder moldings, the powder grains enter into the clearances so that closer layers are formed between the side surfaces of the compression rollers and and the side seals thereby sealing the powder grain introduction/compression part In a rear stage of the rollers and a shearing device is provided and shears the compression moldings formed by the rollers and Torque of the shearing device is detected by a torque sensor, and the compression rollers and and the powder grain transport means are controlled in accordance with the detected torque.
