[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] See also Figure 1-8 The present invention discloses an automatic unpacking and medicine replenishing structure for a medicine cabinet, which involves the disassembly and assembly of a packaging box 01 and the removal of medicines, including:

[0041] A rotating base 1 is provided with two sets of clamping plates 2 with adjustable spacing, and the clamping plates 2 are used to clamp and transport packaging boxes 01 of different sizes;

[0042] The clamping plate 2 is provided with an adjustable cutting assembly 21 for cutting two sides of the packaging box 01 and clamping and cutting the other two sides as the rotating base 1 rotates, so that the packaging box 01 falls off the side corresponding to the rotating base 1;

[0043] The supporting platform 3, the rotating base 1 is rotatably arranged on the supporting platform 3, and a rotating unit for driving the rotating base 1 to rotate is arranged in the supporting platform 3, so that the rotating base 1 rotates and drives the packaging box 01 to tilt;

[0044] A tilt adjustment mechanism 4 is provided on the back of the carrier 3 and is used to adjust the tilt angle of the packaging box 01 after the clamping plate 2 grabs it;

[0045] It should be noted that the tilt adjustment mechanism 4 should be set on the track-type robotic arm in the existing technology to provide a bearing point for the equipment, and under the drive of the track-type robotic arm, the entire equipment can be driven to move in multiple directions to achieve the purpose of transporting the packaging box 01 and transferring between different packaging boxes 01 for taking medicines. It should be further noted that the track-type robotic arm is a commonly used technical means in the existing technology, and this technical means is relatively complete, so it is not explained and described in detail.

[0046] The medicine dispensing mechanism 5 is arranged on the supporting platform 3. A first medicine dispensing cavity 11 and a second medicine dispensing cavity 31 corresponding to the medicine dispensing mechanism 5 are respectively opened on one side corner of the supporting platform 3 and the rotating base 1. The medicine dispensing end of the medicine dispensing mechanism 5 can pass through the first medicine dispensing cavity 11 and the second medicine dispensing cavity 31 and extend into the packaging box 01 to dispensing medicine;

[0047] The tilt adjustment mechanism 4 and the rotating unit are used to drive the packaging box 01 to tilt, so that the medicine inside it slides to the corresponding positions of the first medicine dispensing cavity 11 and the second medicine dispensing cavity 31, thereby replenishing the medicine in the first medicine dispensing cavity 11 to facilitate the subsequent medicine dispensing by the medicine dispensing mechanism 5.

[0048] In the above technical solution, the steps are as follows:

[0049] S1, driven by the rail-type robotic arm, moves the entire device to the packaging box 01 that is put into the warehouse via the conveyor belt;

[0050] S2. Clamp the packaging box 01 by the clamping plate 2 provided on the rotating seat 1, transfer it to the corresponding placement rack, and record the location for subsequent replenishment of the medicine;

[0051] S3. On the placement rack, the cutting components 21 provided on the clamping plate 2 cut both sides of the packaging box 01. Then, the supporting platform 3 drives the rotating base 1 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the two sets of cutting components 21 cut the upper and lower sides of the packaging box 01 until the side of the packaging box 01 corresponding to the rotating base 1 falls off and is ready for use.

[0052] S4. When the medicine at that location needs to be taken, the rotating seat 1 is brought close to the missing surface of the packaging box 01, and the medicine taking mechanism 5 passes through the first medicine taking cavity 11 and the second medicine taking cavity 31 to take the medicine and place it in the carrying frame 53 for subsequent transfer to replenish the medicine for the medicine taking machine;

[0053] S5. In step S4, after all the medicines in the corresponding medicine dispensing cavity in the packaging box 01 are taken out, the rotating unit in the supporting platform 3 can drive the packaging box 01 as a whole to tilt left or right toward the side with the medicine dispensing cavity, so that the medicines on the side slide to the medicine dispensing cavity for subsequent medicine removal;

[0054] S6. In step S5, after the entire outermost surface of the medicine is taken, the tilt adjustment mechanism 4 is operated to tilt the packaging box 01 as a whole back and forth toward one side of the medicine taking cavity, so that the internal medicine moves as a whole outward to facilitate the medicine taking mechanism 5 to take the medicine, and repeat step S5 until the medicine on that surface is taken, and then repeat step S6.

[0055] In the above steps, it should be noted that in step S3, before the cutting assembly 21 on the clamping plate 2 is operated, the tilt adjustment mechanism 4 can be used to drive the packaging box 01 to tilt and shake toward the end away from the cutting assembly 21, so that the medicine inside the packaging box 01 is away from the side that needs to be cut, so as to avoid damage to the internal medicine box during the subsequent cutting process.

[0056] The tilt adjustment mechanism 4 and the rotating unit are used to drive the packaging box 01 to tilt, so that the medicine inside it slides to the corresponding positions of the first medicine dispensing cavity 11 and the second medicine dispensing cavity 31, making it easier for the medicine dispensing mechanism 5 to dispensing medicine.

[0057] In this embodiment, the rotating seat 1 is provided with an adjustment groove 13 corresponding to the clamping plate 2, and the clamping plate 2 is provided with an adjustment slider 24 extending into the adjustment groove 13;

[0058] The adjusting groove 13 is provided with a threaded rotating rod threadably connected to the adjusting slider 24 , and the rotating seat 1 is provided with a clamping motor for driving the threaded rotating rod to operate.

[0059] Through the above-mentioned structural setting, when the device is in use, the operation of the clamping motor can drive the threaded rotating rod to operate, so that the two adjustment sliders 24 connecting the two clamping plates 2 can operate relative to or apart, thereby realizing the loosening and clamping of the two clamping plates 2.

[0060] It should be further explained that the clamping plate 2 is provided with anti-slip ribs 22, and the anti-slip ribs 22 are used to improve the stability of the clamping plate 2 in clamping the packaging box 01. While preventing slipping, it can also avoid damage to the packaging box 01. The clamping plate 2 is internally provided with an adjusting screw 23 for driving the cutting assembly 21 to move, so that the cutting assembly 21 cuts the side of the packaging box 01, and also includes a rotating motor for driving the adjusting screw 23 to rotate. It should be explained that the adjusting screw 23 and the rotating motor are both commonly used technical means in the prior art, so they are not explained and described in detail.

[0061] The cutting assembly 21 includes a sliding seat 213 threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 23, and a cutting bracket 214 is provided on the top of the sliding seat 213;

[0062] The cutting bracket 214 is provided with a cutting disc 211 for cutting and a cutting motor 212 for driving the cutting disc 211;

[0063] A telescopic push rod 215 is provided in the sliding seat 213 to drive the cutting bracket 214 to extend and retract, so that the cutting disc 211 can be extended and retracted inside the clamping plate 2 .

[0064] Through the above-mentioned structural setting, when the clamping plate 2 clamps the packaging box 01, the telescopic push rod 215 is used to retract the cutting disc 211 into the clamping plate 2, and when the packaging box 01 needs to be cut, it is extended. It should be added that the packaging box 01 is a cardboard box, and the thickness of its box wall is usually a standard size. Therefore, the position of the cutting component 21 is usually fixed. When cutting is required for different wall thicknesses, the cutting position of the cutting component 21 can be controlled by adjusting the clamping position (depth) of the clamping plate 2.

[0065] It is easy to imagine that the first medicine taking chamber 11 and the second medicine taking chamber 31 are respectively provided on one side corner of the rotating base 1 and the supporting platform 3 so as to concentrate the medicines when the rotating base 1 and the supporting platform 3 are tilted.

[0066] In this embodiment, the medicine dispensing mechanism 5 includes a supporting frame 53 and an extension seat 52 arranged on the supporting frame 53. The output end of the extension seat 52 is provided with an adsorption probe 51, so that the adsorption probe 51 can be extended and retracted inside the first medicine dispensing cavity 11 and the second medicine dispensing cavity 31 to dispensing medicine, wherein the adsorption probe 51 is a negative pressure probe. Through the above-mentioned structural setting, after the adsorption probe 51 grabs the medicine, the medicine can be drawn out to the top of the supporting frame 53 through the extension seat 52, and then the adsorption probe 51 releases the negative pressure, and the medicine falls into the inside of the supporting frame 53. Repeat the above steps to complete the medicine dispensing. After the medicine dispensing is completed, the bottom of the supporting frame 53 may also have an opening and closing door to discharge the medicine to the medicine replenishing mechanism of the medicine cabinet.

[0067] In this embodiment, the tilt adjustment mechanism 4 includes a connecting frame 43, which is rotatably connected to the supporting platform 3 through a hinge shaft 41. The connecting frame 43 is provided with an adjusting push rod 42 for adjusting the tilt angle of the supporting platform 3. The above-mentioned angle adjustment mechanism can be replaced by other structures that can be easily thought of by technicians in the pump field.

[0068] Furthermore, a rotating shaft 12 extending into the interior of the supporting platform 3 is provided on the rotating base 1 . The rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the rotating unit, and the rotating unit is used to drive the rotating base 1 to rotate via the rotating shaft 12 .

[0069] Among them, the rotating unit is a servo motor, and the output end of the servo motor is provided with a transmission disk engaged with the rotating shaft 12, which is used to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate when the servo motor is running, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating seat 1. It should be noted that the servo motor is a commonly used technical means in the prior art, so it is not explained and described in detail.

[0070] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0071] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features specified as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0072] In addition, "plurality" means two or more.

[0073] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
