CA 2605148

A system for coating tablets and other small articles is provided. The system is comprised of an elongate housing containing a drum journalled for rotation about a horizontal axis. The drum has two open ends that receive and discharge a supply of tablets respectively. The drum is rotated about the axis by a drive means to tumble the tablets and advance the tablets through the drum. The system also includes a system for delivering a selected amount of coating to the tablets while they are being tumbled and a feeder for continually feeding tablets at a first end of the housing. The system employs a weir plate for maintaining a depth of tablets within the drum and for controlling the time that the tablets remain in the drum. Finally, the system has a tablet discharge region for receiving tablets for discharge.

L~invention concerne un système d~enrobage de comprimés et autres articles de petite taille. Le système est constitué d~un carter allongé contenant un tambour tourillonné de façon à effectuer une rotation autour d~un axe horizontal. Le tambour présente deux extrémités ouvertes qui reçoivent et déversent respectivement un flux de comprimés. Le tambour est entraîné en rotation autour de l~axe par un moyen d~entraînement de manière à brasser les comprimés et à les faire progresser à travers le tambour. Le système comporte également un système de distribution d~une quantité déterminée d~enrobage pendant le brassage des comprimés et un dispositif d~alimentation assurant l~alimentation continue de comprimés à une première extrémité du carter. Le système utilise une plaque déversoir servant à maintenir une certaine profondeur de comprimés dans le tambour et à réguler leur temps de séjour dans le tambour. Le système comporte enfin une région de déversement de comprimés servant à recevoir les comprimés avant de les déverser.
