The drive rod 24 can be rotatably sleeved outside the second screw rod 23.

[0028] One end of the medicine storage bin 20 is rotatably assembled on the fixed seat 19 through the first rotating shaft 25. A torsion spring 26a for providing elastic force for the automatic springing open of the medicine storage bin 20 is assembled on the first rotating shaft 25. The medicine bottle 27 is placed in the medicine storage bin 20. The driving rod 24 is movably assembled in the driving sleeve 28 and is located at the opening and closing end of the medicine storage bin 20. The end of the driving sleeve 28 is telescopically assembled with a limiting ring 29. A helical spring 30 for pushing the limiting ring 29 to move towards the medicine storage bin 20 is arranged between the limiting ring 29 and the driving sleeve 28. The driving rod 24 passes through the limiting ring 29 and the radius of its head is greater than the inner hole of the limiting ring 29. A driving rocker arm 32 is rotatably arranged on the fixed seat 19 through the second rotating shaft 31. A torsion spring 26b for resetting the driving rocker arm 32 is installed on the second rotating shaft 31. A toggle switch 33 for opening and closing the medicine storage bin 20 is arranged on the fixed seat 19. A limiting block 34 is arranged at the bottom of the toggle switch 33. A limiting groove 35 is opened on the limiting block 34. One end of the driving rocker arm 32 is located on one side of the limiting ring 29, and the other end is clamped in the limiting groove 35 for limiting. A sliding plate 36 is arranged below the driving rocker arm 32 on the fixed seat 19. A clamping hole 37 is opened on the sliding plate 36. A hook 38 is arranged at the bottom of one end of the medicine storage bin 20 in cooperation with the clamping hole 37. A torsion spring 26c for resetting the sliding plate 36 is arranged on the sliding plate 36. A transmission lever 40 is rotatably assembled on the fixed seat 19 between the sliding plate 36 and the limiting block 34 through the third rotating shaft 39. The two ends of the transmission lever 40 are respectively arranged corresponding to the limiting block 34 and the sliding plate 36. A clamping head 41 adapted to the toggle switch 33 is arranged on the medicine storage bin 20.

[0029] The medicine storage bin 20 includes a cylindrical bin body. An external thread section 42 with a radius smaller than that of the bin body is arranged at the end of the bin body. The injection needle 43 is detachably assembled on the external thread section 42 through internal threads. A pressing block 44 is slidably assembled back and forth in the horizontal direction at the bottom of the end of the bin body where the injection needle 43 is assembled. The pressing block 44 is integrally in an "L" shape structure and includes a horizontal side 45 and a vertical side 46. Extension blocks 47 extend from both sides of the horizontal side 45. A long strip hole 48 is opened on the horizontal side 45. A notch 49 for accommodating the vertical side 46 is arranged at the end of the bin body. A hinge seat 50 extends downward from the bottom of the notch 49. Both ends of the guide pin 51 are assembled on the hinge seat 50 and pass through the long strip hole 48 to assemble the pressing block 44 on the hinge seat 50.

[0030] During use, when performing an injection, the user aims the injection needle 43 at the injection site, the first drive motor 11 rotates through the first reduction gear set 12 to drive the first screw rod 13 to rotate, thereby driving the sliding base 2 as a whole to move in the direction close to the injection site of the human body through the toggle block 14, and finally the injection needle 43 is automatically implanted into the human body. After implantation into the human body, the second drive motor 21 rotates through the second reduction gear set 22 to drive the second screw rod 23 to rotate, and the second screw rod 23 drives the drive rod 24 to move forward a certain distance, and finally the drive rod 24 accurately injects the medicine in the medicine storage bin 20 into the human body through the piston at the end.

[0031] When the medicine storage bin 20 is closed, the coil spring 30 pushes the limiting ring 29 out and abuts against the medicine storage bin 20. At the same time, the hook 38 at the bottom of the medicine storage bin 20 hooks the clamp hole 37 to limit the medicine storage bin 20, and the clamp head 41 at the top is inserted into the toggle switch 33 for limiting. When it is necessary to open the medicine storage bin 20 for changing medicine, it is necessary to first ensure that the injection needle 43 has been completely removed. The mechanism principle is: when the tail end of the injection needle 43 is tightened and assembled on the external thread section 42, the vertical edge 46 of the pressing block 44 is limited in the notch 49 by the tail end of the injection needle 43, and the end of the horizontal edge 45 abuts against the end of the fixing seat 19 for limiting. At this time, the medicine storage bin 20 cannot be opened outward. Only when the injection needle 43 is completely removed, there is no limit of the injection needle 43 on the outside of the vertical edge 46, and the medicine storage bin 20 can be opened outward. During the opening process, the whole pressing block 44 moves outward through the long hole 48 to avoid interference. The toggle switch 33 loses its limit, and the toggle switch 33 is then operated to push one end of the transmission lever 40 to rotate, thereby pushing the sliding plate 36 to slide in the direction close to the injection needle 43 through the other end of the transmission lever 40, and finally causing the hook 38 to disengage from the latch hole 37. At this time, the medicine storage bin 20 completely loses its limit and automatically pops out to the outside under the action of the torsion spring 26a.

[0032] Note that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include more other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
