Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0060] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The first embodiment of the present invention provides a medicine dispensing mechanism, including a base 100, a medicine cutting assembly 600, a rotating member 800, and a plurality of first driving members 530. The medicine cutting assembly 600 includes two medicine dispensing members 640, which are rotatably connected to the base 100. The medicine dispensing members 640 are provided with a medicine dispensing groove 641, and the medicine dispensing groove 641 has a medicine outlet 650. The two medicine dispensing grooves 641 are interconnected to form a first receiving groove 630. The two medicine dispensing members 640 are spaced apart along the X-axis direction, and a first gap 642 is defined between the two medicine dispensing members 640. The first gap 642 is connected to the first receiving groove 630, and the first gap 642 is used for allowing a guillotine to pass through. Each medicine dispensing member 640 is respectively connected to a first driving member 530, which can drive the medicine dispensing member 640 to rotate so that the medicine is discharged from the medicine outlet 650. The rotating member 800 is rotatably connected to the base 100 and can rotate to allow the medicine to enter the medicine dispensing groove 641. It is understood that the first driving member 530 and the second driving member 820 can both be selected as motors, the width of the first aperture is greater than the thickness of the guillotine, and the medicine can be a pill or tablet.

[0061] After the medicine is introduced into the medicine dispensing groove 641 by the rotating member 800, the guillotine cuts the medicine by passing through the first gap 642 set between the two medicine dispensing members 640. After being cut by the guillotine, the medicine will be separated by the side wall 340 of the guillotine and enter the two medicine dispensing grooves 641 respectively. The two medicine dispensing members 640 can be driven separately by the corresponding first driving member 530, so that the medicines in the medicine dispensing grooves 641 set by different medicine dispensing members 640 can be output separately, thereby ensuring that the amount of medicine output is accurately controlled. For example, when half a medicine needs to be input into a medicine box, the first driving member 530 drives one medicine dispensing member 640 to rotate so that the medicine is output into the medicine box through the medicine outlet 650, and the half medicine stored in the other medicine dispensing member 640 can be output when half a medicine of the same type needs to be input into another medicine box. While achieving accurate control of the amount of output medicine, it avoids medicine waste and saves costs.

[0062] Reference Figure 3In some embodiments, the two medicine dividing parts 640 of the medicine cutting assembly 600 are respectively a first medicine dividing part 610 and a second medicine dividing part 620. The first medicine dividing part 610 is provided with a first main body 611 and a first guide part 612. One end of the first guide part 612 is connected to the first main body 611, and the other end extends obliquely relative to the first main body 611 in a direction away from the medicine outlet 650. The second medicine dividing part 620 is provided with a second main body 621 and a second guide part 622. One end of the second guide part 622 is connected to the second main body 621, and the other end extends obliquely relative to the second main body 621 in a direction away from the medicine outlet 650. The first main body 611, the first guide part 612, the second main body 621 and the second guide part 622 jointly define a first accommodating groove 630. As the distance between the first guide part 612 and the second guide part 622 gradually decreases in the direction away from the medicine outlet 650. When the rotating member 800 dispenses medicine toward the medicine dispensing member 640, the medicine outlets 650 provided on the first medicine dispensing member 610 and the second medicine dispensing member 620 are both oriented toward the rotating member 800. After the medicine enters the first receiving groove 630, it moves to abut against the first guide portion 612 and the second guide portion 622. The first guide portion 612 and the second guide portion 622 can limit the position of medicines of different sizes. When positioning medicines of different sizes, the size of the medicine only changes the position of the medicine abutting against the first guide portion 612 and the second guide portion 622. That is, a larger medicine will be positioned closer to the medicine outlet 650 than a smaller medicine, but this will not affect the medicine's position relative to the first gap 642, thereby facilitating the guillotine to cut the medicine.

[0063] Specifically, the first medicine dividing member 610 and the second medicine dividing member 620 are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the first gap 642 as the symmetry axis, so that when the medicine abuts the first guide part 612 and the second guide part 622 at the same time, the center of the medicine corresponds to the first gap 642, so that after the pills are cut by the guillotine, the mass of the medicine entering different medicine dividing grooves 641 can be roughly equal, thereby ensuring the quality of the divided medicine.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the medicine cutting assembly 600 further includes two limiting members 500, which are spaced apart along the X-axis direction. Each medicine dispensing member 640 is connected to each limiting member 500, and the medicine dispensing member 640 can abut against the limiting member 500 so that the medicine dispensing groove 641 faces the rotating member 800. The first driving member 530 is fixedly connected to the limiting member 500. After the medicine dispensing member 640 completes a medicine dispensing operation, that is, after the medicine in the medicine dispensing groove 641 is discharged from the medicine outlet 650, the first driving member 530 drives the medicine dispensing member 640 to rotate until it abuts against the limiting member 500, and at the same time, the medicine dispensing groove 641 faces the rotating member 800, so as to receive the medicine from the rotating member 800 again. When both medicine dispensing members 640 abut against the corresponding limiting members 500 , the two medicine dispensing members 640 can be aligned so that the two medicine dispensing grooves 641 are connected to form the first receiving groove 630 , thereby ensuring the medicine receiving effect of the first receiving groove 630 .

[0065] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the limiting member 500 is connected to the base 100, and the limiting member 500 includes an extension portion 510 and a limiting portion 520. The extension portion 510 is connected to the base 100, one end of the limiting portion 520 is connected to the extension portion 510, and the other end extends toward the rotating member 800. The limiting portion 520 is bent at a set angle relative to the extension portion 510, and the medicine dispensing member 640 can abut against the limiting portion 520 so that the medicine dispensing groove 641 faces the rotating member 800. The limiting portion 520 extends upward at an angle, so that when the medicine dividing piece 640 abuts against the limiting portion 520, the center of gravity of the medicine dividing piece 640 is located below the rotation center of the medicine dividing piece 640, which can ensure that the state of the medicine dividing piece 640 remains stable when it is not affected by other external forces. At the same time, the medicine that falls into the first receiving groove 630 can move under the action of gravity to abut against the first guide portion 612 and the second guide portion 622 at the same time, so as to facilitate the acceptance of the medicine delivered by the rotating part 800 and the next medicine cutting.

[0066] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the medicine dispensing mechanism further includes a guide member 400, which is fixedly connected to the base 100. The guide member 400 is provided with a guide groove 410, one end of the guide groove 410 faces the medicine dispensing member 640, and the other end of the guide groove 410 extends obliquely away from the medicine dispensing member 640. The rotating member 800 can rotate to allow the medicine to enter the guide groove 410 or the medicine dispensing groove 641, and the medicine dispensing member 640 can rotate so that the medicine outlet 650 faces the guide groove 410. The rotating member 800 can rotate to guide the medicine to the guide member 400, so that the medicine falls into the guide groove 410 and is directly discharged, or the medicine dispensing member 640 can rotate in the opposite direction to allow the medicine to fall into the first receiving groove 630 for division, and then the medicine dispensing member 640 guides the divided medicine into the guide groove 410 for output. For example, when three complete drugs and half drugs need to be input into the medicine box, the complete drugs can be introduced into the guide groove 410 by the drug dividing piece 640 and output directly, while the half drugs can be cut and formed in the first receiving groove 630 and then introduced into the guide groove 410 for output.

[0067] Reference Figures 1 to 8 The second embodiment of the present invention provides a medicine dispensing device, including the first embodiment

[0068] The provided medicine dispensing mechanism and feeding member 300 are connected to the base 100 and are used to deliver medicine to the medicine dispensing mechanism. The medicine dispensing device employing the above-described medicine dispensing mechanism, in addition to having at least all the advantages of the medicine dispensing mechanism, can deliver medicine to the medicine dispensing mechanism via the feeding member 300, thereby improving the efficiency of the medicine dispensing device in dispensing medicine to the medicine box.

[0069] Reference Figure 4In some embodiments, the drug dispensing device further includes a mounting base 200 and a partition assembly 700. The mounting base 200 has a set length and is provided with a first accommodating cavity 210 having a first opening 211 and a plurality of through holes 222. The mounting base 200 is provided with a plurality of first partitions 220, which are disposed within the first accommodating cavity 210 and are spaced apart along the length of the mounting base 200. Second accommodating grooves 221 are defined between two adjacent first partitions 220 and between the mounting base 200 and the first partitions 220 adjacent to the inner wall of the mounting base 200 along the length of the mounting base 200. The second accommodating grooves 221 are connected to the first accommodating cavity 210, and each through hole 222 corresponds to and is connected to each second accommodating groove 221. The partition assembly 700 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 200 and faces the first opening 211. The partition assembly 700 is used to introduce drugs into each second accommodating groove 221. The rotating member 800 includes a rotating shaft 811 and multiple rotating parts 812. The rotating shaft 811 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the multiple rotating parts 812 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the rotating shaft 811. The medicine dividing mechanism also includes multiple medicine cutting components 600. The multiple medicine cutting components 600 are all arranged at intervals along the Y-axis direction. The rotating part 812 can cover the through hole 222. The rotating shaft 811 can be rotated until the rotating part 812 passes through the through hole 222. Each rotating part 812 corresponds to each through hole 222 one by one.

[0070] After being delivered by the feed member 300, the medication enters the partition assembly 700. The partition assembly 700 rotates relative to the mounting base 200, directing the medication into different second receiving grooves 221. The corresponding rotating member 800 then directs the medication into the guide member 400 for direct delivery, or directs the medication into the pill cutting assembly 600 for cutting and delivery. Multiple pill cutting assemblies 600 are spaced apart along the Y-axis, allowing each to simultaneously dispense medication from different pill boxes, thereby improving medication dispensing efficiency.

[0071] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the medicine dispensing device further comprises a connecting member 660, which connects adjacent medicine dispensing members 640 of adjacent medicine cutting assemblies 600. Adjacent medicine dispensing members 640 of adjacent medicine cutting assemblies 600 are driven by the same first driving member 530. The output shaft of the first driving member 530 is fixedly connected to one of the medicine dispensing members 640, so that when the first driving member 530 is driven, the two medicine dispensing members 640 can rotate together. Under the premise that the adjacent medicine dispensing members 640 of adjacent medicine cutting assemblies 600 do not carry medicines at the same time, the number of first driving members 530 between the adjacent medicine dispensing members 640 of adjacent medicine cutting assemblies 600 can be reduced, thereby achieving the effect of reducing costs and saving installation space. It is understandable that the connecting member 660 can be integrally formed with the adjacent medicine dispensing members 640 of adjacent medicine cutting assemblies 600, or can be manufactured separately and then connected by welding or using threaded fasteners, both of which can achieve the above-mentioned effects.

[0072] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the partition assembly 700 includes a first partition 710, a second partition 720, a third driving member 711 and a fourth driving member 724. The first partition 710 and the second partition 720 are spaced apart along the Z-axis direction. The second partition 720 is provided with a second partition portion 722. The second partition 720 is provided with a plurality of third accommodating chambers 721 separated by the second partition portion 722. The first partition 710 and the second partition 720 are both rotatably connected to the mounting base 200. The third driving member 711 is used to drive the first partition 710 to rotate. The fourth driving member 724 is used to drive the second partition 720 to rotate. The first partition 710 is used to introduce the drug into the third accommodating chamber 721. The second partition 720 is also provided with a plurality of second openings 723. Each second opening 723 corresponds to each third accommodating chamber 721 one by one and is connected to each other. The second partition 720 can be rotated so that the second opening 723 faces the second accommodating groove 221. The medicine is introduced into different second receiving grooves 221 corresponding to different rotating parts 812 by the relative rotation of the first partition 710 and the second partition 720, so that the medicine can be distributed to different medicine boxes, thereby improving the efficiency of medicine distribution.

[0073] Reference Figure 4 、 Figures 6 to 8In some embodiments, the mounting base 200 is provided with three first partitions 220, which define four second accommodating grooves 221. The partition assembly 700 includes a first partition 710 and a second partition 720. The second partition 720 is provided with a second partition 722. The second partition 722 divides the second accommodating cavity into two third accommodating cavities 721. The second partition 720 is also provided with two second openings 723. The second partition 720 can rotate relative to the mounting base 200 to a first set position, a second set position, and a third set position. Specifically:
