ABSTRACT:
A receptacle is provided for receiving soft fragile tablets from a tablet press. The receptacle includes a drum with a soft bag mounted therein. The bag is supported by a suspension system which automatically lowers the bag from an empty raised position to a loaded lower position, in response to the weight of the tablets in the bag. The suspension system maintains a constant drop distance for the tablets between the discharge chute of the tablet press and the bag, thereby minimizing damage to the tablets during the transfer process. The bag is porous to permit air treatment for hardening of the tablets after the tablets are received in the bag.
