ABSTRACT:
A support assembly for a rotatable punch drive plate in a rotary press having a die plate forming a multitude of die cavities and supported for rotation about a given axis, and a multitude of punches supported for axial reciprocating movement in the die cavities. The punch drive plate engages the punches, and rotation of the die plate and the drive plate reciprocates the punches to force a food material into the die cavities, to mold the food material therein into tablets and then to eject the tablets from the die cavities. The support assembly includes a multitude of support subassemblies spaced around and engaging the punch drive plate. These support subassemblies preferably both support the drive plate for rotation about the given axis and axially flex the drive plate toward and away from the die plate as the drive plate rotates about the given axis.
