CASCADE DEDUSTING APPARATUS

摘要

There is disclosed a cascade dedusting apparatus (10) which effectively removes dust from compressed tablets supplied from a tabletting machine (19, 20) by causing the tablets to tumble along an inclined cascade member (16). The dust from the tablets is constantly removed from the dedusting apparatus by vacuum means (18) and the dedusted tablets are delivered to appropriate receptacles through a plurality of discharge tubes (21-26). The cascade dedusting apparatus of the invention also includes means to control the flow of dedusted tablets (32, 33) to a pre-selected discharge tube.
