[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the medicine storage bin 200 includes a rectangular support plate 201, a rectangular front medicine baffle plate 202, and a rectangular rear medicine baffle plate 203. The front medicine baffle plate 202 is installed at the front end of the support plate 201, and the front medicine baffle plate 202 can be adjusted along the length direction of the support plate 201, and the distance between the bottom end of the front medicine baffle plate 202 and the medicine pusher conveyor 300 is controlled to be only for a single box of medicine to be pushed out; the rear medicine baffle plate 203 is installed on the front of the support plate 201, and the rear medicine baffle plate 203 can be adjusted along the width direction of the support plate 201. The back of the support plate 201 is fixedly connected with a plurality of mutually parallel mounting rods 204 and a plurality of mutually parallel reinforcing ribs 205, the mounting rods 204 are perpendicular to the reinforcing ribs 205, and the reinforcing ribs 205 are parallel to the long axis of the support plate 201.
