ABSTRACT:
A medicinal capsule inspection device in which the capsules are arrayed end to end between adjacent rotating rollers and visually inspected as they are rotated by the rollers. The rollers are supported by and roll around a pair of circular ledges comprising the smaller diameters of a pair of parallel, concentric flanged discs. The rollers are driven around the ledges by projections on a pair of rotating discs which are synchronously driven from a common source. A feed chute, discharge outlet, an air ejection system and a light source are provided to facilitate the operation of the device and to facilitate the detection of faulty capsules.
