[0048] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The present embodiment provides a medicine outlet mechanism 200, comprising a tray 210, a plurality of baffles 220 and a plurality of medicine outlet units 230.

[0049] The plurality of baffles 220 are connected with the tray 210, and any two baffles 220 form a medicine channel 201 for the medicine to pass through, and the plurality of medicine channels 201 are arranged side by side; the plurality of medicine outlet units 230 are connected with the tray 210, the plurality of medicine outlet units 230 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of medicine channels 201, and each medicine outlet unit 230 is arranged at the end of the corresponding medicine channel 201 for medicine outlet.

[0050] Among them, the medicine outlet unit 230 is used to guide the medicine in the corresponding medicine channel 201 out.

[0051] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The working principle of the medicine outlet mechanism 200 is:

[0052] The medicine outlet mechanism 200 comprises a tray 210, a plurality of baffles 220 and a plurality of medicine outlet units 230; it should be noted that when the medicine outlet mechanism 200 is installed in the medicine outlet system, the tray 210 is relatively inclined to set, so that the medicine in the medicine channel 201 has a tendency to move towards one end of the medicine outlet unit 230.

[0053] Therefore, the end with the medicine outlet unit 230 installed is the medicine outlet end of the medicine outlet mechanism 200, and the other end of the medicine channel 201 is the end for adding medicine, and since the structure for medicine outlet is arranged at the medicine outlet end, the structure for medicine inlet end can be simplified, thereby avoiding the interference of the related mechanism in the medicine outlet mechanism 200 when adding medicine, to improve the operation efficiency.

[0054] Moreover, such a setting mode can adaptively set each medicine channel 201 according to the size parameters of the medicine when arranging the baffles 220, so that each medicine channel 201 can adapt to the placement requirements of one or a type of medicine, thereby improving the use range of the medicine outlet mechanism 200.

[0055] In summary, the medicine discharging mechanism 200 is simple in structure and convenient to use. The medicine discharging mechanism 200 discharges medicine by arranging the medicine discharging unit 230 at the medicine discharging end, thereby improving the medicine discharging efficiency and simplifying the structure of the other end of the medicine channel 201, so as to facilitate the addition of medicine from the other end of the medicine channel 201. In addition, the arrangement manner makes the medicine discharging actions of each medicine channel 201 independent of each other, so as to control the medicine discharging actions of the medicine in each medicine channel 201, thereby realizing the automation of medicine discharging.

[0056] Further, as known from the above, in the embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-9 , the size parameters of the medicine can be adapted to each medicine channel 201, so that each medicine channel 201 can adapt to the placement requirements of one or a type of medicine. Therefore, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the distance between the baffles 220, a plurality of insertion slots 211 for inserting the baffles 220 are arranged on the tray 210, and the plurality of insertion slots 211 are arranged in an array. By inserting the baffles 220 into different insertion slots 211, the size of the medicine channel 201 formed between the two adjacent baffles 220 can be adjusted, thereby improving the flexibility and application range of the medicine discharging mechanism 200.

[0057] In order to improve the mounting stability of the baffles 220 and avoid the shaking of the baffles 220 during use, the medicine discharging mechanism 200 further comprises a limiting plate 240 connected to the back of the tray 210. The limiting plate 240 extends along the arrangement direction of the plurality of medicine channels 201, and the limiting plate 240 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 241. The plurality of limiting grooves 241 correspond to the plurality of insertion slots 211 extending along the arrangement direction of the plurality of medicine channels 201 one by one. Each limiting groove 241 is used for insertion and cooperation with the baffle 220 located in the corresponding insertion slot 211.

[0058] Moreover, in order to increase the contact area of the baffle 220 and the limiting groove 241 and improve the mounting stability of the baffle 220, the limiting plate 240 is bent and extended, so that each limiting groove 241 is bent and extended.

[0059] Further, please refer to Figures 1-12 In the embodiment, in the process of discharging medicine, in order to make the medicine located at the medicine discharging end be guided out of the corresponding medicine channel 201 under the action of the medicine discharging unit 230, when the medicine discharging unit 230 is arranged, the medicine discharging unit 230 comprises a main body 231, a movable piece 232 and a driving piece;

[0060] The main body 231 is connected with the tray 210, and the main body 231 is spaced from the end of the medicine channel 201;

[0061] The movable part 232 is movably connected with the main body 231 and is located in the interval region between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201; the movable part 232 has a first position and a second position; when the movable part 232 is in the first position, the height of the movable part 232 is lower than the height of the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201; when the movable part 232 is in the second position, the height of the movable part 232 is higher than the height of the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201.

[0062] The driving part is connected with the main body 231 and is used to drive the movable part 232 to move; when the movable part 232 moves from the first position to the second position, the movable part 232 is used to abut against the medicine located in the interval region between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201 and to lift the medicine, so that the medicine is separated from the medicine channel 201.

[0063] In the process of lifting the medicine, the medicine can be separated from the two baffles 220 forming the medicine channel 201 under the action of gravity, so as to be separated from the medicine channel 201.

[0064] It should be noted that, please refer to Figures 1-12 In the embodiment of the present application, when the movable part 232 is arranged, the movable part 232 can slide relative to the main body 231 or rotate relative to the main body 231; in the present embodiment, the driving part is a motor and the movable part 232 rotates relative to the main body 231; specifically, the driving part includes a motor which is used to drive the movable part 232 to rotate.

[0065] The end of the movable part 232 facing the corresponding medicine channel 201 is provided with a medicine guiding table 233;

[0066] When the medicine guiding table 233 is in the first position, the medicine guiding table 233 is parallel to the bottom surface of the corresponding medicine channel 201, the medicine sliding out of the corresponding medicine channel 201 abuts against the movable part 232 or the main body 231 and is located directly above the medicine guiding table 233;

[0067] When the medicine guiding table 233 is in the second position, the medicine guiding table 233 is at an angle with the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201 and abuts against the medicine directly above the medicine guiding table 233 to lift the medicine and separate the medicine from the medicine channel 201.

[0068] Thus, in this way, the medicine guide table 233 can be rotated under the driving of the motor, so that the medicine guide table 233 can abut against the bottom surface of the medicine in the spacing region between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201, and lift the medicine, so that the medicine is out of contact with the two baffles 220 forming the medicine channel 201 after rising in height, and thus out of the medicine channel 201. It should be noted that, in order to detect the rotating position of the motor-driven movable part 232, the inside of the movable part 232 is provided with a magnet mounting hole for mounting a magnet, and a Hall sensor on the internal circuit board is used to realize the counting and zero point of one rotation of the movable part 232. The vertical state of the movable part 232 is controlled by the program time, so as to achieve the state of stopping after half a rotation of the movable part 232. That is, the position limiting of the motor-driven movable part 232 is guaranteed by the magnet on the movable part 232 and the Hall sensor on the circuit board.

[0069] Further, please refer to Figures 1-12 In this embodiment, in order to detect the medicine out of the medicine out mechanism 200, the medicine out mechanism 200 further comprises a plurality of detection units 250, the plurality of detection units 250 correspond to the plurality of medicine channels 201 one by one, and each detection unit 250 is located at the end of the corresponding medicine channel 201 and at the same end of the medicine out unit 230.

[0070] The detection unit 250 is located below the corresponding medicine channel 201, and the detection unit 250 is used to emit detection light in the direction perpendicular to the medicine channel 201 to detect whether there is medicine in the spacing region between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201.

[0071] That is, when the detection light emitted by the detection unit 250 in the direction of the medicine channel 201 is blocked, it means that there is medicine in the spacing region between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201. If the movable part 232 is in the first position at this time, it means that the medicine out mechanism 200 is operating normally, and if the movable part 232 is in the second position at this time, it means that the medicine out mechanism 200 is stuck, and needs to be maintained. In addition, during the medicine loading process, if no medicine is detected in the corresponding medicine channel 201, it means that there is no medicine in the corresponding medicine channel 201, which may be that the corresponding medicine channel 201 is not put in during the medicine loading process, so as to prompt the wrong medicine loading, and thus this setting mode also has the medicine loading error correction function.

[0072] In the detection process of the detection unit 250, in order to avoid the movable part 232 blocking the detection light of the detection unit 250, the detection unit 250 is located below the medicine guide table 233, and the medicine guide table 233 is provided with a through hole 234 for the detection light to pass through. When the medicine guide table 233 is in the first position or the second position, the detection light passes through the through hole 234.

[0073] In the setting of the detection unit 250, the detection principle of the medicine is infrared light detection. The infrared light emitting end (i.e. the emitting lamp) and the receiving end (i.e. the receiving lamp) are both set relative to the corresponding medicine channel 201. One of the emitting end and the receiving end can be set below the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201, and the other is located above the medicine channel 201. The emitting end or the receiving end set below the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201 can be connected with the main body 231, and located directly below the movable part 232 when the movable part 232 is in the first position. Since the guide medicine table 233 is provided with a through hole 234 for the detection light to pass through, the detection unit 250 can be hidden and arranged when it is located directly below the movable part 232. The movable part 232 does not affect the normal work of the detection unit 250, and can prevent the detection unit 250 from being disturbed by external light, so that the detection is more accurate. The emitting end or the receiving end located on the medicine channel 201 can be connected with the external structure to maintain stability. Thus, by emitting detection light from the emitting end and the receiving end towards the area between the main body 231 and the end of the medicine channel 201, it can be determined whether there is medicine in the area between the main body 231 and the end of the medicine channel 201 according to the shielding condition of the detection light. It should be noted that the infrared light emitting and receiving end of the detection unit 250 can adopt the structure in the prior art.

[0074] In summary, please refer to Figures 1-12 With the rotation of the movable part 232, in the process of dispensing medicine, the following working states exist through the cooperation with the detection unit 250:

[0075] The guide medicine table 233 is in a horizontal state: at this time, the movable part 232 is in the first position, and the medicine located between the main body 231 and the medicine channel 201 is located above the guide medicine table 233. At the same time, the medicine box will block the detection light of the detection unit 250. At this time, the detection unit 250 detects that the detection light is blocked, and determines that there is medicine in the medicine channel 201. If there is no medicine above the guide medicine table 233 of the detection unit 250, the detection unit 250 detects that the detection light is not blocked, which means that there is no medicine in the medicine channel 201, and the medicine channel 201 is in an empty state;

[0076] The vertical state of the medicine guide table 233: the movable part 232 rotates to the second position under the driving action of the motor, and the medicine in contact with the medicine guide table 233 is lifted. Under normal circumstances, the medicine will be separated from the medicine channel 201 at this time. Since the medicine guide table 233 is higher than the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201 at this time, the medicine in the medicine channel 201 will be in contact with the end of the medicine guide table 233 facing the medicine channel 201, that is, there is no medicine above the medicine guide table 233 at this time, so the detection light of the detection unit 250 is not blocked. At this time, the medicine is successfully dispensed. Under abnormal circumstances, the detection light of the detection unit 250 is blocked, that is, the detection unit 250 detects that there is medicine above the medicine guide table 233, and since the movable part 232 is in the second position, it indicates that there is a medicine jam or an obstacle at this time. At this time, the motor needs to be controlled to reverse and an error needs to be reported to prevent the medicine from being squeezed or the medicine dispensing unit 230 from being damaged.

[0077] It should be noted that when the motor drives the movable part 232 to rotate to dispense the medicine, the time is controlled by the program. If there is a medicine jam, the detection light of the detection unit 250 can be used to determine whether the medicine is jammed. If it is determined that the medicine is jammed, the program will control the movable part 232 to reverse, which will make it easier to make the medicine box slide down and reduce the probability of medicine jamming.

[0078] Further, from the above, it can be seen that in the present embodiment, when the above-mentioned medicine dispensing unit 230 and detection unit 250 are arranged, the movable part 232 of the detection unit 250 and the medicine dispensing unit 230 is arranged below the bottom surface of the medicine channel 201. Therefore, in order to facilitate the arrangement of the medicine dispensing unit 230 and the detection unit 250, one end of the tray 210 on which the medicine dispensing unit 230 is installed is bent downward to form a mounting portion 212 for mounting a plurality of medicine dispensing units 230 and a plurality of detection units 250.

[0079] In summary, please refer to Figures 1-12 The medicine dispensing mechanism 200 has the following advantages:

[0080] The medicine dispensing mechanism 200 can determine whether the medicine is successfully dispensed and whether there is medicine in the medicine channel 201, thereby achieving the purpose of detecting whether the medicine is dispensed and whether there is medicine in the medicine channel 201, greatly increasing the accuracy and stability of medicine dispensing;

[0081] The medicine guide table 233 is designed to be hollow to achieve more accurate detection results;

[0082] The detection of the medicine is a through detection, and the receiving lamp and the emitting lamp are both hidden to prevent the detection light from being disturbed, and the detection is more accurate;

[0083] The width and the narrowness of the medicine channel 201 can be adjusted according to the actual medicine, and the bottom clamping groove and the limiting groove 241 of the tray 210 can ensure that the baffle 220 is more stable;

[0084] Each medicine outlet unit 230 is an independent unit, and can be adjusted in position according to the width of the actual medicine channel 201, so as to ensure that each medicine channel 201 has only one medicine outlet unit 230 and is centrally installed, and the uniformity, interchangeability and standardization of the medicine outlet mechanism 200 are realized; each medicine channel 201 is provided with only one medicine outlet unit 230, so that the cost is saved, and the problem of asynchronization of the double medicine outlet mechanisms 200 is reduced;

[0085] The medicine outlet mechanism 200 is placed obliquely, and the medicine can be slid out without power.

[0086] The problem of wrong medicine being added can be prevented when the medicine is added by the detection.

[0087] Based on the above content, please refer to Figures 1-12 The application further provides a medicine outlet system, comprising a rack and a plurality of the medicine outlet mechanisms 200.

[0088] The plurality of medicine outlet mechanisms 200 are connected with the rack, and the trays 210 are obliquely arranged, so that the medicines in the medicine channels 201 have a tendency to slide to the end close to the medicine outlet unit 230. It should be noted that the oblique angle of the medicine outlet mechanism 200 is adjusted according to the actual size, weight and sliding property of the medicines, and when the medicine outlet mechanism 200 is placed in a stacked manner, the number of stacked layers can be adjusted according to the actual space size of the installation position.

[0089] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the application and is not used to limit the application. For those skilled in the art, the application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the application shall be included in the protection scope of the application.
