[0041] The present invention also provides a method for cutting medicine using a fully automatic medicine cutting device, comprising the following steps:

[0042] Step 1: The movable seat 15 is driven to move horizontally by the horizontal adjustment mechanism, thereby causing the first rotating shaft 11 to drive the cutting disc 7 to move, thereby changing the distance between the cutting disc 7 and the feed hopper 5 so that the thickness of the slices of the medicinal material reaches a preset value;

[0043] Step 2: The staff places the medicinal materials on the loading box 42, and drives the loading box 42 to vibrate through the vibration mechanism, so that the medicinal materials in the loading box 42 slide into the feeding hopper 5 through the loading pipe 47;

[0044] Step 3: The medicinal material slides on the feed hopper 5, and one end of the medicinal material contacts the cutting disc 7. The driving mechanism drives the movable sleeve 12 to rotate, which in turn causes the first rotating shaft 11 to drive the cutting disc 7 to rotate, and the fixed ring 13 drives the cutting blade 9 to rotate synchronously through the support column 14;

[0045] Step 4: When the cutting blade 9 rotates to one side of the feed hopper 5, the cutting blade 9 cuts the medicinal materials extending from the feed hopper 5, and the cut medicinal materials enter the receiving groove 8;

[0046] Step 5: As the cutting disc 7 rotates, when the opening of the receiving groove 8 faces the discharge pipe 3, the medicinal materials in the receiving groove 8 are thrown out of the receiving groove 8 due to the action of centrifugal force, and the medicinal materials are discharged through the discharge pipe 3.

[0047] Working principle: The fixed plate 36 is manually driven to rotate, so that the worm 35 drives the worm wheel 34 and the first screw rod 32 to rotate, and the length of the first screw rod 32 in the threaded sleeve 33 is changed, so that the threaded sleeve 33 drives the movable seat 15 to move horizontally. After the adjustment is completed, the movable plate 39 is manually driven to move, so that the second screw rod 40 passes through the movable plate 39, and the limiting column 38 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 37. The second screw rod 40 is sleeved with a nut 41, and the nut 41 is manually driven to rotate downward, so that the nut 41 presses the movable plate 39 to avoid The limiting column 38 is prevented from being separated from the limiting hole 37. The position of the fixed plate 36 and the worm 35 is limited by the cooperation of the limiting column 38 and the limiting hole 37 to prevent the fixed plate 36 and the worm 35 from rotating due to non-human factors. The movable seat 15 is driven to move in the horizontal direction by the horizontal adjustment mechanism, and then the first rotating shaft 11 drives the cutting disc 7 to move, and changes the distance between the cutting disc 7 and the feed hopper 5, so that the thickness of the slices of the medicinal material reaches the preset value. The staff places the medicinal material on the feeding box 42 and starts the vibration motor 46, so that the feeding box 42 vibrates, so that the medicinal materials in the feeding box 42 slide into the feeding hopper 5 through the feeding pipe 47, and the medicinal materials slide on the feeding hopper 5. One end of the medicinal materials contacts the cutting disc 7, and the second sprocket 28 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 27. The second sprocket 28 drives the first sprocket 26 to rotate through the chain 29, so that the movable sleeve 12 and the guide block 24 rotate. The guide block 24 drives the first rotating shaft 11 and the cutting disc 7 to rotate, and the fixed ring 13 drives the cutting knife 9 to rotate synchronously through the support column 14. The cutting knife 9 rotates to one end of the feeding hopper 5. When the cutting disc 7 is turned sideways, the cutting knife 9 cuts the medicinal materials extending from the feed hopper 5, and the cut medicinal materials enter the receiving groove 8. As the cutting disc 7 rotates, when the opening on the receiving groove 8 faces the discharge pipe 3, the medicinal materials in the receiving groove 8 are thrown out from the receiving groove 8 due to the action of centrifugal force, and the medicinal materials are discharged through the discharge pipe 3. There is no need for personnel to press the medicinal materials with both hands to slowly advance them, which reduces the work intensity. At the same time, the thickness of the cut medicinal materials is uniform. Since the feed hopper 5 is tilted, the medicinal materials are tilted relative to the cutting knife 9 when being cut, so that the slices are larger.
